   weighted chest
       arms extended
overhead
waiting for a
   falling breeze
to
   carry me over

Marijuana puffs
Famed hallucinatory.
Laced with excuses.

You butchered my heart
Because your name is Butcher
With my machete i shall march in your blood.

acres of wheat fields
turning golden in the sun 
not these upsetting rows
of waving green tobacco

Eyes face vase grace all burning

I woke up in a daydream, left behind
I found it eccentric...
But, together, we are epic

a morning visit —
the red cardinal inside
its outside upside-down world

day of promise
day of deceit
will we advance, retreat?

the reason, a door
Hers, Mine, ours -
Open or closed

Premium Member Poor Choices

I am not okay.
This is the price that I pay
For secrets I kept.
These are the consequences
Of all of my poor choices.

Premium Member Unwell

Feeling so unwell,
Almost as if in a Hell.
Almost like I am
Under some sort of a spell.
Hoping soon I will be well.
Form: Tanka

beat

I feel like a failed organ transplant 
In this country, in this world
But it’s deeper than that
In my body, in my mind

Premium Member Hermit

Damp shiver,
under wanton fog,
lone self plight,
as shrill cry,
swallowed by eerie phantoms,
of snow gust night’scape
Form: Shadorma

i still look for you in every room i enter

it happened again.

i got bad.

but this time i was alone.

where did you go?

you know i can't handle this alone.

Premium Member I Put the Fun In Funeral

Whenever I die
I much rather they not cry.
Rather just goodbyes.
No pity, nor wonder why,
Just God opening their eyes.

Out in the open,
His status left unspoken.
Wandered for so long.
Only wanted to belong,
To fight alongside the strong.

it was spewing venom
in the shape of evil
i ran as far as i could run
and never looked back

Reflection

I look in the mirror-
Face is numb,
Not knowing what I’ve become.
And to relive that horror,
Leaves me as a nightmare.

Diarrhea

Last night I had diarrhea 
Even though it smelled real fruity
I quickly cleaned it up myself
After all, it was my duty!

Masked

Stony cold icy faces,
Always trying to stay ahead in races.
Living under a guise,
And smiles that don’t reach the eyes.
Form: Rhyme

Lividity

BITTER BLOOD
I'M TORN
INTO FLIMSY FRAGMENTS
PULLING ME APART
YELLOWING
WITH MISUSE
THIS STATE OF ENTROPY
BLACKENED.

Cogito Ergo Sum

I Think Therefore I Am
     do I think
     or am I just a parrot
     barking back ideas
     someone spoke in my ear

Premium Member Closing In

dusk
is pressing
as the mist
rolls in
with the growl
of thunder
and the eyes
of Jupiter

Wind

Piss and wind
Blow in the night
Flowing down stream

Piss and wind
As the wind blows, the piss flows
And a man is relieved
