Champagne popping and club hoping
  You and your girlfriends had a
  Wild night out
  I cannot see you in the images
  You claim you took because you
  Blacked out...

Shipwreck

Forceful truths
captive to 
glistening diamond
watered ice 
descends
upon her
mothers  
blacked inky
oceans sea's
couch,
uncomplaining
peaceful
sleep
at
last....

Blacked eye Susan
amethyst eyes
glazed in glaciers

Purple daisys bloom
blend in ragwood sun
cotton flower dance
without a bell

Peninsula in midst
opens forests in its path
After all dream becoming one piece...

I'm here where you left me
Alone in the dark
A crime scene unknown thats blacked my heart
Whiskeys gone cold, blood has turned clear
Now that im gone there's no more to fear
Cuts and scars fade into death
Tears run down my face as i take my last breath....

I have drank the Tears of Death, My fears swallowed in One Breath
I felt the frozen flames of Hell, I hear the tolling of Death's Iron Bell
  I'm sorry I blacked out for awhile I will continue this Tomorrow
With LOVE ALWAYS and FOREVER, YOUR Eternal Liege...Harry...

there had been no warning on the flask
no caveat for self-inflicted poisoning 
just a devilish delusion of filling the void

it was not the corkscrew that messed it up
but bottle to mouth resuscitation blacked out
all emptiness until surrender meant hope

This thing is feeding on me 
I don't know, I feel it. 
I know how bad it is 
It turn my life hell 
My girl is gone away 
I find none, 
but memories to wet my face. 
I don't feel free, my heart is blacked. 
This thing is feeding on me 
I feel it, I die beneath....

I got trapped in the last chapter and I vanished from the planet 
life had lost all meaning and I felt I never had it 
blacked out facts scattered messy told what happened 
collected on the wall lit by light i visualise the crappening 

*crappening - crap happening...

Paper Man


After work as a to-do list in a jewellery store 
Paper Man got drunk on wine a lot,
so a lot of what was said to him 
he forgot.

His paper wife kicked him out of their bedroom.
One night he came back so drunk he blacked out 
and fed himself into a shredder in the spare room.

lucid and melancholy 
 i feel fine 
 been rough too
 have a drink 
 it will get you in the mood
 or take you down the creek 
 again tore up from the 
 floor up
 spoken to me 
 one day at a time 
 blacked out and fine
 where are my shoes
 vague flashes 
 really bad editing 
 is my life 
 drowned in regret...

You are a bad bad girl
Bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad
It was in her brain
Had been there for a long time

She told her dolls they were bad
Bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad
They looked sad
But she did not care

She blacked out their eyes
She blacked out her own eyes
She wanted everyone sad
Because she was bad...

I have once flown in the clouds. 
Helping people then been blacked out. 
The world has changed my wings are black.
Lost all hope need to sleep but never can't. 
So I lay on this concrete slab. 
My soul is gone but wounding if I will get on track. 
Seeing things white but now I have changed. 
Now I am just a black dark angel living in pain...

OMG What a day so far. Woke up at 7 to use the little girls room and blacked out again  until about 10 when the kids found me. three hours on the floor not moving. GEESH !!! Hospital still can't figure it out. Unexplained black outs and fainting is the diagnosis. Have to have someone with me at all times. HHHMMM Can I have Luke, Blake or Sammy. LOL...

She donned her wafflestomper shoes
and strode towards the distant hills:
a walk was sure to cure the blues,
to dry her tears, forget the bills.
She spent the day enjoying life
and realised she would survive -
although no longer called his wife,
no need for death; she'd stay alive.
Returning home, her head held high,
she saw her ex and blacked his eye....

Words hidden in the dark some night,
As flame's whisper on a Moon lit wall,
Faint echoes of a lightning bolt,
Lost in ink, trapped on the page.

Blacked-out lines reveal the soul,
Truth emerges, stark yet bold,
On the tounge, new words take hold,
Meaning found in what’s not there.

Through the void, stories bloom,
From the edge, a voice, square room....

My long neck and blacked-tip tail fascinating
Wowing with agility not imitating
Squirrel, mouse and rats
All of you I track and bats

Funny rabbits  or sad hare
Larger than me I snare
Up and down the tree I chase
Slower than me I praise

I am the smaller predator so brave
Even birds and insects I crave
My lunch, dinner and dessert
You and all I can eat and assert...

The thick, oppressive smoke blacked out the fall sun...
The smell of my great grandmother's old woodstove
suddenly came to mind...
Flames licked the night sky from the mountainside...
And to my horror, I resigned...
After the fire has devoured all the old trees, and has flickered out of sight...
The barren, ashy face of the hillside will greet me each day and every night......

Never did a fire so fierce
Blow across the land
That same land
His heart did grow
Nourished by his sweat and toil
No more
The morning mist
Will hear his weathered voice 
Call his horse
Com'orn
His mark
Has been scorched from its soil
And how that land
Greens, grays
And blacked haze
With gusts of wind
And rumpled hills
The fathering face
Of this dead man
Hidden beneath...

Closed fist, 
Blood in my face,
What have I done?
Cops surround me, 
I blacked out, 
It all began, 
After a session of drinking and making love, 
A shadow approached me, 
We began talking about something disturbing, 
He pushed me, so I pushed him back,
He hit me with a left one and all went black, 
I opened my eyes and there he was down flat, 
My own flesh and blood,
My brother....

Old Salt
Was Walt

Possessed
On chest

Tattoo
Of Lou

Each port
Had snort

Much booze
Blew fuse

Got tight
Had fight

Some beef
With Chief

Unwise
Blacked eyes

Uptight
Lost fight

For prank
Lost rank

For swig*
In brig

*One interpretation of swig is - strike heavily with fist!

born of the venomous night
in shadows blacked in cruelty
the savage hunter hides in wait
bearing a tormented existence

a feared winged warrior, without opposition
swooping in from hilltop kingdoms
forced crystalline gaze perceives entirety
breathing a fierce-flamed death

trampled in a fetid slumber
drinking the blood of his rivals
fire blazes in illumination
not resting till he conquers it all...

oh, this grinding surge
roaring into battle,
how the air is filled
with the sabre rattle;
how the sky is blacked
by fires in their burning,
how the townships sacked
by counter-strikes returning;
how the guns and shells
through the air are streaming,
how the tolling bells
bleed into the screaming;
oh, the fight for land, 
conflicts over chattel,
how the days are spent
in slaughtering the cattle....

News flash
Huge bash

Big fight
Last night

Clyde's Bar
Bizarre

War zone
Chairs thrown

Snouts poked
Gals choked

Eyes blacked
Ribs cracked

Hair snatched
Backs scratched

Throats slashed
Heads bashed

Tossed stools
Blood pools

Ears chewed
Tossed food

Knees kicked
Knives pricked

Low blows
Stomped toes

Dames sprawled
Cops called

Clyde's closed
Foreclosed

In darkened shadows,
Lies in wait,
My blacked soul,
Bound in chains,
I lie in blood,
Running from my veins,
Upon the stone,
That lies beneath,
My broken body,
Bruised and twisted,
And then I wake,
This is my future,
This my fate,
This is to come,
It lies in wait,
Sure as Death,
This will come,
It is said,
It is done,
These are my nightmares,
That make me scream, 
These are the dreams,
A tortured soul does dream,
