Short Febrile Poems

When you enter a certain age
your opinions don't count
In the West age does not carry consideration
for the aegis of youth prevails
with your Tik Tok and Instagram
instant accords of the febrile mind...

Chromed blade promptly
With adroit, raw incisions
Separates toxic, mounting mass

Unsterilized weeping fears
Tourniquet burnt
By caring eyes separated

Self-victimization 
Flooding the dark room
With febrile infectious tears

Incessant wakened hours pass
The phantom poison 
Remains flowing...

"Oel ngati kameie"

Oh, my
Sweetness
If only you'd see me
With eyes of this aching essence
What scrumptious trouble we could find ourselves
In the weeping glow of the sacred tree
Drops of the mad moon, trickling
From your lips ... to mine
Such febrile fun
Delicious and ...
Dark.

Once,drenched in mournful tears,
'neath the timid soul in fear;

Now,burning in anguish's flames.

Once,trodden and unheard,
Battered and bruised; 

Now,searing in febrile waves.

And once fragile and tamed,
A prisoner of your whim;
A slave of your caprice;

Now, ready to unshackle the chains.

So behold me,
As i surge high;
As i fly away;

Once,caged in your vile world;
Never ever again !
Never ever again !

Never.Ever.Again...
