Short Exacerbating Poems

Drowning in self degradation
Deliberate affliction is exacerbating 
Crystalline facade dulling senses 
Normalcy, forgetting our consensus


Score, decennary years within  
point, swirling under skin
Finality, deaths creeping in
Exodus, my last syringe...

Write it to your bone marrow
your toothbrush
your first love and your
most exacerbating
moment when you
realized
but not really
that that blush meant
you weren't separate
but together
in the melee
of piss and velvet
charm and goo
peanut butter and M-16s
me and you
baby
we're in this together...

    Spring is gone, Summer’s fading
        in Fall's vanishing leaves, we are wading 

    Winter seems a long way off, 
        but storms soon will rage, exacerbating …

Enamoured with himself for sure,
On top of all he got,
He always wanted more!

The harsh season of winter
has its grip upon the land.
Strong gusty winds are blowing,
exacerbating the cold.
Precipitation is snow.
Tons of solid crystals fall.
They lie on the hardened ground.
Lakes and streams are not flowing
Trees are devoid of their leaves.
The ice hangs like stalactites.
Green growth is inhibited.
No flowers found anywhere.
Barren lifeless surroundings.
Ubiquitous deathlike white.
Come in from out of the freeze....
