Long Transfusions Poems

Given are we the name of the vampire, creatures of the forbidden,
Driven to live forever within the shadows, or die
Beneath a wooden steak, through our black hearts of pure evil,
But in reality, we are so...

...So why do we keep ghosts in here
when by the day many folks die?
Well, you see, it’s technology,
it tears them apart from the inside.
Since they are merely energy
all the fields from our gadgets and toys
scatter...

I do not know how men many we were
or how we went, what we saw on the way 
nor do I know for what ungodly purport was ours
or what goaded us on into deeper uncharted...

Pardon skepticism, but it’s true
There’s too much ado about Swine Flu
Thirty-one deaths by May of ‘09
In 25 nations worldwide
 
Avoid all public transportation
And forego annual vacations
Protect us from the dreaded Swine Flu
By closing our schools...

It’s terminal….the Big C has struck

Despite these prickly heartdart lyrics, man voraciously yearns for a glint of hope

Incurable strikes the ears, accelerates to the brain, explodes into the mouth

How Long…………………………Now, you always wanted a pseudonym,...

Sorrowed Nights

Lustrous Dreams

Always more than what it seems

Psychotic transfusions await

Upon the hands of the gracefully

From love with Russia 

Prussian changing of the guards

Alongside wisdom & tools from God

Do not ponder my friend just 
wander

Incandescent illusions of massive transfusions
For we are all trapped in tautological time
There is no escape for when you awake
A punitive prisoner that has committed no crime

Silent components dictate progressive opponents 
Any resistance is pointless regardless...

I
At this stage
My retirement age
I speak with JWs
Jehovah's Witnesses
I shut my door
quickly before
Now, I'm emptier - stronger -
I converse with JWs longer

II
Fine people, careful about blood
Who avoid transfusions, "blood" food -
For JWs, smoking is wrong
Alcohol...

Unconscious bias, an interesting subject indeed. 
While I would never be biased, allow me to proceed. 
Bias is experienced by dummies, crazies, and kooks. 
Not something that would apply to someone with my good looks....

I am neither brown nor white nor black
My skin tone is somewhere between ivory
And pale, like the color of the crayon
We used to paint flesh in coloring books
Those who know call it melanin. They say

In dying days and weathered dreams
I open my heart
In my own way I seek a path
I speak through my art

Desolation leads me blind
But I’m still alive
Resolving through the pain I find
And I still survive

In loss...

Vulnerable
Lamb
In
need
of
a shepherd
Lost my head
Suppressing
pain
and only
transferring it

Silencing 
my
Lioness
Heart
Blinded
by my self hatred.

I
need
not
your
attention
Using
your smiles
as
medication.

I
have
drugged
myself
into
submission
Living only
by
the help
of sorrows
blood transfusions
In
the marrow
its sunken in.
Sickly girl
looking thin

Strung
out
on
Love's
addictive
Lies
and
reaching for something
to
dull my
senses.
silence my
cries
masochistic
pleasure.
I've
quit
I'm done.
Hold me
back
from
my own
Dependence....
