Hung From a Tree
Trees in the dark night
Nooses hang from branches high
Life ends as wind blows...

oak bark suckle Gorillas boycott nests

The Murder Diaries Iii
Raspy, sexified tones began tightening
Like nooses around my throat
A trail of corpses appeared nonexistent
To millions of natural eyes
Catastrophically I was yet another victim
In the pages of murder that she had composed
She must be found…...

To Kill a Metaphor
Seaward cliff
Spilling bath
Tangled nooses
Off the path

On the tracks
Driving fast
Cutting clean
Erase the past

Arcing strife
Drowned in snow
Shooting through
Poisoned woe

Dreamy pills
Shattered glass
At the peak
Of life’s impasse

Crimson
Nooses hang upon the trees,

swaying gently in the breeze.

Self loathing rips through his chest,

a raging beast which never rests.

Unseeing eyes stare through the mist,

wondering if he'll be forgotten, or missed.

His wrists are slashed, his leaves stained red,

His heart is heavy like carrying lead.

As tears come to his eyes,

his final words,

a whispered, Goodbye....

Elixir
Swayed I am by your sound taste

Amongst a sea of recluses

Against the hands of time we race

To stifle ignorance with nooses


Oh, how you stroke my rib cage

Laughter shaping countless voids

Revamping happiness for the age

Before they gambled ertswhile ploys



A heap of debris I'd be

Swept by carcinogenic draughts

Without you assured I'd seethe

A damn not given be it daft...

Plan B
I sit, think; catch a quick wink as the ship sinks.
My instinct is to lip sync till the slip’s pink.
Can’t win fights when my chin swipes reach only shin height.
And when kin likes taking Schwinn bikes to my wind pipe. 
It’s useless. I’m an aloof spruce, I’m fruitless.
The looseness of nooses is becoming a nuisance.
Screw this. Hope has gone the way of the dodos.
I pack my bindle full of beans and hop a train with the hobos....
