Premium Member meltdown madness

We might as well stamp license plates
Government work makes us inmates
When assigned tasks inane
In asylums insane
We'll search for retirement dates

Premium Member Like Inmates at Asylums

     How ironic to see ‘chain gangs’
       in elementary schools now

     Little kids roped together, inmates
       at asylums where madmen shoot at you

A Trek Through Truism's, True Blue

Betwixt these tithes at her antiquities keen asylums; a foretokens child esoteric
Paleolithic etchings; afore their myths the caverns Acheron's absolved; loric tides..
Acute, this illness ironic it's stones ? Theology sects scribes a second coming as time.

Premium Member Life

spark lit by someone flickers flares flashes
flames hearts minds and bodies till ---
doused by the one lit it

Springing from the whole flowing through the whole
fulfills fancies of wholeness ---
fondly flows in the whole

migratory bird taken flight from far
explores unknown asylums ---
flies back tired and homesick

Crazy In Rural Ohio

When lamps are lit,
thumb-downed farmers
smoke on their porch's,
whittle away a churning simmer
of angry ghosts.

Some bury the urge
to slip into insanity, some plant it.
Some clean shotguns long unused,
others go to bed fuming.
A few walk into the dark
following a slow burn.

In county towns,
stone asylums are erected
to contain the fires.


Ball of Fire

Today is Doomsday.

Some believe today is Doomsday
Some say maybe the end of the year
However, do we really care?
How would the earth end?
In a ball of fire or 
would it swallow us up into puff of dust
in a matter of an hour..

I rather am buried under pile of snow.
Eternal Preservation "what a nice way to go

However do we have option in a world?
Where lunatics have taken over asylums
where deranged souls spreading like a social cancer 
Is doomsday  the answer..?
