SCRIPTED SUFFERINGS
My life’s a movie, roll tape, lights, cameras, action
Playing every scene with pain as my main attraction
The life I live is more like a devilish transaction
Said I quit the drugs, but slowly I’m relapsing
Time ain’t on my side, I feel my time elapsing
Trapped inside my perception like Nathan in a steel

THE SCRIPTED GAME
The roar of the crowd, a deafening sound,
As helmets collide on hallowed ground.
But whispers arise, a cynical plea,
"Is victory real, or just make-believe?"
Like headlines that spin, a truth half-concealed,
Or storylines scripted, emotions revealed,
The gridiron's drama, some claim it's a show,
A pre-ordained dance, where the winners all know.
The quarterback's pass, a perfectly flighted arc,
Or a fumble

Scripted
Conjured words on a puppet play
Like silly antics out of tune
All are taught the words to say
Their feet are caught in sand of dune
Going through and passing by
Just to blow harsh words for a pay
They're singers singing the same lullaby
Sour graping night and day

The Reel Scripted Love Story
I feel most free when
Authoring the email and just press ‘send’
Letting go
From someone I left in the snow
A partner ever so cold
Decided this relationship hand I will fold
“Take the winning chip”
I did quip
Scribing the electronic script
Savoring my wine,

Gestures made
Phrases uttered
All sound familiar
But how did this come to be?
It dawned on me
the movies watched long ago
the books read long ago
Gestures saved
Phrases scripted
The subscious comes to avail
Life is a large stage
Men and women acting
Life's cycle turns full circle.
Phrases muttered
Gestures made
Obscene acts
Despicable scripts

I want to be out between

Sent a letter a to the lone

There is no one home

Saturation Mimics Satisfaction
Initialising silhouettes submit to midwinter dawn
Beginning willingly to swallow colour of choices
Fledgelings' flamboyant campaigns display oblivion
Audacious adolescents distribute chafing thoughts
Attach entire esteem to securing peer approval
Frivolous get transfixed in youth's lurid allure
Bustling balloons launch from high vaulting hearts
Adventurers revel in joy during jaunty occasions
Concerned observers avoid havoc's banquet
Money cascades proportionate to patrons' appraise
Circumspect

Such is life,
as we go,
stumbling through,
uncertain strife.
The play goes on,
curtain rises,
feign courage through,
another crisis.
Unwilling actors,
the end predicted,
we all discover,
life is scripted.
So play your part,
we're all conscripted.

Scripted Tears
Life is a poorly penned poem,
punctuated by emotions.
And lacking in substance and weight,
fate feels abstract and mystical.
Influencing both heart and soul,
love touts its own philosophy.
And postulates its existence
as the pinnacle of feelings.
Sometimes life's scary or painful,
while at others, it's filled with joy.
Yet, there are similarities
fueling its overall theme.
Hope's the predominant rhythm,
encouraging feats of magic.
And reveals

Thought I was yours
Forever and always
Promised eternity
Showed me your ways.
Those were promised
Same told to others
How could you sing our song
To your new lovers?
Did you make a script
Like you’re in a movie?
Bet you’re best actor
This foolish love story.
I’ll never be shocked
Heard them crying...
Same promises broken
He is just only playing.

Turn right, turn left the arrow states
Go down and up never get mistake.
unchained the thorn gripped on one's neck
Freed mankind from darkest slave.
A pyramid of **** is now invert,
perverted the nation of dummy's wake.
Living off the grid is now being rehearsed
unravelled the system,torn out the script!

Scripted Imagination of Flesh
Ardent death imagines a self haven
Entrance glowing by distraction
World speed redolent of circulation
Social climbers ringing out
Transposed at the gates of bounty
Advancing as far as time allows
Currents sweeping have abdicated
A constant pursuit, jury-wrangled doubt
Still born as conscience flees
Momentarily chastising of imagination's veins
Yet the future bounces back porous
Webbed across sensual speaking skulls
Life burns by nuance
