Sin
Lo, do I grasp with my wretched fingers,
Onto where my heart it still lingers,
Tendrils hold as though a parasite,
With it's life causes my blight,
Even withered it does not die,
For its mother hears its cry,
Nurturing back to good health,
Yet it is I who have dealth,
Suttle thoughts fuel the proliferation,
Making death its instrumentation,
Rest from it comes with

Friend or Foe
there is a parasite amoung us that hides most of the year
once the temperature starts falling as does the leaves its there
right in our sight but out of our reach
so many stories on how it came about
some thought it brought fertility and others protection
it brought death to a Norse god
when all other plants are

PARASITE
It’s a parasite’s world.
The worm of laziness
Clogging the mind,
Ego refusing change.
It’s a parasite’s world,
Seeping through one’s blood and breath.
Adoption, adaptation to change, an uphill task.
Ignorance, dark, deep, masquerading ugliness.
It’s a parasite’s world---
Where dependence is practice.
And excuses-- strategy, to design.
Deadlines met feverishly by others.
It’s a parasite’s world,
Where type of work affect quality.
Where comparison and perks

Cell Prison: a Parasite of Life
My pixel prison, / parasite of my mind, / tyrant of my time.
Once upon a time- a letter or a call sufficed.
Now, years vanish in a blink of an eye,
Beeps and buzzes, / rings and memes.
Panic… no time or space to breathe…, to think, to feel.
Only rumors, lies, confusion, facts, &

Defense of the Tick
I loathe the mere thought
of creatures so slothful and rude
as to steal their life's portion from others.
Ticks, tapeworms, leeches, and mosquitoes -
each I despise for their moral failings.
Yet, it is I who partakes of animal and plant;
I've never asked them nor any fungus for permission
to steal at least a part or even kill them
so that

A Filthy Parasite
(A World of Monsters & Men series)
Turn off the lights
Lower the sound - or silent
Stop talking for a bit - I mean perfect decorum
Let me think
Let me sink myself in the ocean of my thoughts
I need to clear the waves in my mind
For some time - maybe longer.
A filthy parasite is eating

Parasite
Charles had his visits resumed,
Thrice eating what he consumed.
We were all by him deceived
And readily was received!
Charles, who had false names assumed
And that we had not presumed;
He had had it all conceived,
My present folly perceived…
Now, A Case of Food Shortage,
I plan to One Room mortgage;
It can’t be Steady Porridge.
For Vegetable Mere Cabbage…
Starvation knocking hard:
I

Parasite
Out of sight out of mind
Those are only lies
Even when I don't realize
You're a dedicated parasite
Out of sight but in my mind
My spirit towards you remains kind
Our memories and momentos will forever bind
Our kinship which I always thought to be sublime
Out of sight
Your absence brings most delight
We had our time but now we

Cattle Egret
The whitish bird,
Soon in the midst of a herd:
One, two and, soon, a third ….
Partly there to supervise their curd,
Fractionally, to catch their navigating word;
Sometimes around pacing like their king,
While their “moos” in its ears ring.
But chiefly the Egret is visiting a dining table,
Of which a reaching it is capable:
Easily, a pecking pouncing on the

Parasite
i am...
without mercy!
my thirst is
unquenchable.
i'm a predatory organism
inhabiting
and feeding
off your flesh;
latching on
like a leech,
slurping your blood
like Count Dracula
then licking my lips

Evil, vile, demented smile
Parasite, you’re a parasite
Charming, nice, sweetest vice
It’s all a lie, it’s all a lie
You seemed like a fly on the wall
Harmless and so very small
But you were a predator and I was prey
Waiting for me to fall
And fall I did
Fell into your greedy hands
Met every last one of your demands
Never realizing that

Parasite
Annul the nation,
Annulation of the situation,
Feed our egos with propaganda and lies,
Numb the souls, Occupy the minds,
Distraction from living our lives,
Specified time for us to go outside,
Adaption didn’t pose a problem
Normalizing the lack of freedom,
Accepting the new rules,
Believing the bull that they tell us on the news,
This coming generation,
Is a product of our own

Mother Earth
In the widely spread universe
Only the Earth is alive
And it has blessed you with life
And so many more, some you see
While some you even won’t believe
Yes, at start things for fine--- for Her and for you,
But then You started taking her for granted
For you, it was just an act of being
