Obsessive Compulsive

Check door, handle, lock. Check them twice.
Life with O.C.D. - that's the price.
Do the same each and every day;
"Unlocked!" the inner voices say.
Holding you hostage in a vice.

Sacrilegious Transgression Against Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

I generally mean mine mien mental state

Nothing was ever going to displace my obsession for painting in my mind.
A joyfulness I had never experienced before entered my soul realm when
I finished my first giant canvas, a mere week after my 9-year-old granddaughter
who was obviously a lot more knowledgeable than I about me, had goaded me
into “trying to paint”.

I finished 250 canvases

Obsessed

Obsession, Fears, Anxiety,
Waking the mind of the suffering,
Losing the comfort of Normalcy, 
Gaining the feeling of Confusion about one's own mind.

My thoughts and fears haunt me,
Feeling as though I might never close my eyes again
And feel the comfort of blissful dreams.

Every effort must pass through the peel like orange
the desired is the only way, there’s no range
and having a taste difficult to be bargained for any exchange
thus, anything other than perfection is mange.
Doing it right is limited, just doing becomes strange
giving a helping hand to keep things arranged
is like putting a spoilt urban model in

Obsessive Compulsive Poet

insomnia night after night 
restlessness tense & disturbed
lying awake the mind modifies
mutates
preceding delusional dreams
consciousness remains alert 
creative and mindful words emerge
falling like puzzle pieces 
perfectly clear
brain on the ball
title transparent
insomnia creates 
another verse

and so it continues.. imagination 
inspired though sleepless despair
bedside lamps beam gentle glow 
ingenious words emerge and flow
finally...
morning light sets insomniacs free
another poem

Obsessive Compulsive House Fire

the music 
it had to be put in order
that was 15 years ago
i still can't stop

The songs they sang alluded to the fireplace
probably, maybe, I'm not soo sure

The bricks just below the mantel
it was like a code
i couldn't get the whole thing out of my head

order of music
nonsense bricks
never sleep again

They told me the devil
