Poisoned sheep
They claimed this world, Its not what it seems to be. So it started to unravel, bursting at the seams. So I lied in a wake. Unable to slip away. So I'm begging you now go back to sleep. counting your stars while they poison your sheep. Once the wave is set it's doomed to repeat. Thats where they linger hidden within your dreams. Just waiting for...

Flee
confined to this endless hole, there is no rest for my sinful soul. continuously repeating “this is the last time,” while the lords heart breaks as he writes my fine. battle it every day when you were ordered to flee, how can i run when it has full control over me. filled with regret and fearing it will never leave, the lord...

Sheep Will Be Sheep
following the flock staying in line most of the time until their death bell chimes and the butcher comes from behind and plunges the knife to end their life as they knew it They say that the truth will set you free but most people wouldn’t see it if you hit them on the forehead with it swallowing the Kool-aid because they were told it’s orange Gatorade They’d rather take lies as truth and walk blindly into...

Last night, I had to shoo me away some sheep. Having to count 'em was keeping me from falling asleep. Tonight, I do battle with a big herd of cattle that somebody, I’m sure, has prayed the Lord to keep. ...

Attempting introspection without being rude, I ask myself, "what's going on with this dude?", but is understanding really likely with a house of mirrors psyche? Subtle markers, clarity will betray - or do they point the other way? And which way is better and which way worse? Or is it just the opposite, or the reverse? And am I a wolf in the...

Two black eyes On a sweet white face Floppy ears that lie Those ears actually taste Algae is the most favourite place With no arms No tricks up their sleeves Should they be on a farm? Each looks like a sheep If only they made a bit of cheese To light their fire They suck chloroplasts Leaf sheep never tire Photosynthesis gives them gas Even without the sun’s sunny...

Gradual
The safest road is not always fast, It will appear sometimes as a blast, Disguised wolf in sheep's wool, Naive destination is for the fool, Journey's end is loss for one's soul, For it is the fee for the roads toll, You've made it, you've reached this place, Dark, desolate and without heaven's trace, Now you...

There was a shepherd who fell sound asleep So there was no one to tend to his sheep The sheep were delighted, freedom at last Followed the leader and ran from the past. Walking for miles over fields, hills and moor The sheep were excited, as never before Then came the sunset and the night grew dim They began to feel...

Silenced like a strayed sheep, With no place to go, All my friends in the heap, Are strangers that I know. They see my pain and move on, In a line and in a row, All my friends in the heap, Are strangers that I know. We shared sun and rain, Stayed like arrow & bow, All my friends in the heap, Are strangers that I...
