Happiness
Should be spread
As if it were, diseased
Then 
Anyone infected
Would not be sick, but pleased

Your words
Dripping with venom

Your emotions
Crippled and diseased
Creating a toxic imbalance

I knew I had to leave
You were a walking virus.

A love
Once pure
So filled with joy
Is now diseased
With no sign or cure
They left things unsaid
Without a trace
I’m sick with life
And all I need left
Is just your embrace...

'Twas a horrible thing called the blight,
diseased potatoes a depressing sight,
starvation begone,
crossed over the pond,
arrived Ellis Island future looks bright.

I speak of cash crops, refined 
apothecary powders (staples really) bought to
sate, to feed the scarred artery and the
diseased mind, the lover and the slave.
I speak of madness....

Bowed my nose to the caps of my knees
with the spindle fingers raining on the summer breeze
laughed under breath while you played diseased
and backed my way out of your life - basically....

I came to you an imprish sprite
A unicorn of delight
But instead of protecting me
You infected me
And made me a leper in disguise

Flower
Beautiful scented
growing, flowing flowering
Commonality grown out of dirt
parting spreading fast
diseased expulsion

We wish people would see that we're really dying, our insides are binding and there is no saving us. we lay in this darkness this abyss of lonely and diseased. scattering to the underground because we so fear the light of day....

Red tears,
And black filled fears,
Of all the harrowing years,
I held in my diseased heart.

Does my excruciating soul even know?
How deep my self pity flows?
How much my torture grows?
When will my yellow really start?...

That vital organ 
That pumps blood throughout
We’d die without it, there’s no doubt. 
And yet 
When it breaks and is betrayed 
The person is already slayed.
The heart is a fickle, foolish beast 
And a broken one is quite diseased....

Our town had a Bully named God
who never seemed too pleased
He'd kill us...maim us...call us bad
had our best stuff seized

He used thunder bolts...quakes on earth
even made us diseased
then Science came to town
now the Bully's getting teased...

keeping luxurious meanders. nocturnal outlets permeate quintessentially. random splurges 
transcend universal victories. whispering xylenics yearn zoomingly....

Murky, dusky, dim,
 The old man full of sin.
   
Polluted, diseased, and bare,
Looking through the eyes of despair.
       
Glowing, active, alive,
The new man’s vivacious drive.
    
Hope, confidence, a VOICE,
A spirit that now can rejoice.

Once there were five trees
     five trees and me
   Down came two
     --now only three

   Two more diseased
     sawed down
     to the ground  

   The last, lightning-zapped
     gone, all her sap...

   Now, no more trees
     just me and Thee...

if naught I were just 
a worm inside a rotten 
apple diseased I
~
I swell rot out through
the core stem would break then I
falling down the tree
~
down to the ground freed
for the apple doesn't fall 
farer from the tree

So diseased and in need of surgery
my anointing facing stench forgery
poisons and impurities I chew
clean corners of the heart, becoming few
deadly concoctions and spice in a brew
I bow and plead to make the air new
begging for your touch and the morning dew.
