From the purest source
Through all the layers and senses
Comes forth our spirit
As a distorted image
Trying to be who it is

i delve into age
ponder on my reflection
rain unrelenting
as I see the years return
within a distorted view

Growing Pains

Wha'ts wrong with Mom - then me?
Distorted reality
Is everything just vanity?
About to lose sanity!
Focus on the cross
He will heal loss!

Premium Member I See It Now

The shiver
In the mirror
Is my gaze

Canvas contorted ~
Life view distorted

Though the end of days ~
I mend not my ways

Horrific attributes 
Calamities all around 
Skid row broken dreams
Roughest atmosphere 
A distorted ambiance 
Hear the jeers of morbid souls

They Come Out At Night

They come out at night
Frightful creatures knocking doors
Tricking or treating

Distorted faces
Little monsters carrying bags
Eating sweet victims
Form: Haiku

Moonbeam

Obscured, distorted
by dense wood and tangled vines
Perfectly aimed flash
Gentle blue/white beam
pierces eye and frigid heart
finding a lost soul...
Form: Choka

The Truth

My song will be out of tuned
Distorted and seaming in ruin
A matter of false fact
Under a pretense that
The truth will be told
And not bought and sold

Premium Member Spider Blood

A spider’s blood is clear and pure.
Transparent and there is no cure.
Odd that would research this weird fact.
Maybe my mind is crazily distorted and jacked.

The bauble caught my reflection Upon closer inspection Face all distorted I must get this sorted Poured a beer in self abjection

F Alse E Vidence a Ppearing R Eal

A clear bag of
Water
Hung by the
Door
Flies, Flies
Hundreds of Flies
Swarming
The back porch

A disguise 
For through their
Eyes
A spider web
Distorted.

Premium Member Encouraged By Myself

All about myself
Feeling like an elf
Distorted little me
Happier can I be?

All about myself
Sit upon a shelf,
Encouraged by myself,
This little Christmas Elf.

Pass the Baton

Aloof enough to be devil?
Deep down not caring

Distorted spirituality?
Mess all caused by sin!

Drawing nearer to God
Who should wonder where He is all the time?

Lost

A sea of confusion
faces I have not seen.
faces twisted and
distorted in pain.
Can anyone help
can anyone see?
Is there any hope
of new life for
those who are lost?

trade her mental shackles
(said another way, her distorted mind)
for their enlightenment?

Freedom's Light

When democracy ignites,
This spiritual flame burns bright
Then, fresh wings take flight
Soaring through day and night
Brings evil men and distorted winds
Extinguishing freedom’s light

Honesty is always the very best policy Too bad our leaders are sub par, biologically It's in their genes You know what I mean A figment of their distorted minds idolatry

Screams At Schemes

Screams at Schemes

No wonder an eagle screams and screams;
So it seems Trump did destroy his dreams;
Face contorted;
Plans distorted,
When he was up to his so many schemes.

Dark Effigy

Is your ear corrupted
by what you see
Are the sounds distorted
in blind relief
Do the voices sleep
in images gone
Does a nightmare deafen
—tomorrow’s song
