Dead Road

Looking back, was the rose in me,
Looser having his heart savagely grime...

Looming at the jar,
Was the poisoned love.


Verily

I sought out
the day
and when
I couldn't escape the blame
I never
died of shame
verily
a poisoned pill
I couldn't take.

Trickle of Blood

I hold this shattered glass gentle with a trickle of blood 
and it gleams against the sun
like a dagger
slicing poisoned fruit

   and gazes earthwards -

   skilled hunter



   shadow gazes skywards

   and places poisoned corpse -

bewitching she glared

jet black gown
graceful and sinister
with her heart of stone
and poisoned lips

All the things I learn
Becoming my downfall
Crash and burn
Death becomes me
Every poisoned mind
Falling from the sky
Gaining their
Horrid end
It mirrors my failure

Gut-Wrenching Tale

There was a diner cook in South Hupper
whose food was bad from breakfast to supper.
Tried to make it right
sadly lost the fight
when shot dead by a poisoned up-chucker.

A Poisoned Bed

A love that is not sated
Lies in a poisoned bed
Where monsters just created
Writhe, unliving and undead 
None knows on what they're fated
None knows on what they're fed

Bliss--Fool

In a moment of blis.A poisoned kiss;
Akin to nectar...A virgin miss.

The Poison

The poisoned majority are blind to think they are free,
Unable to see the limitations of poverty 
The bacteria is money like a man made virus
Developed to confine, control and divide us.

it's miserable and magical. by the deep rivers of water, I'm planted - also poisoned. I'm in position for life's misery and magic and music. move me. reposition time. pursue light. uncaged. be free.

Premium Member Onus

Saddled with this task
burden
beast
of razor colour scheme
years of crumbled paint
the dust in lungs
a poisoned dream
still clinging
holding breath
to clear the air
between the stitches of a seam

Low For Me Laying

Low for Me Laying

Saw him down there low for me laying
While always worthless things saying;
Chemical in vein diluted;
Poisoned not electrocuted;
With people's lives should not be playing.

Broken Promise

Troubled thoughts, trickling time,

whispering wishes, wasting wine.

Staring solemnly, sitting still,

persons promise, poisoned pill.

Beyond burdened, beckoning bed,

drunken, dazed, dizzy, dead.

Oregon Trail

In-pine-sweet air
In humus soil
Is where I rest, away from care,
And trail weary toil.

One morning feathers filled the air,
With wooden shafts that sped
And left this traveler to lie
With poisoned arrowhead.

Rainbow Rollercoaster

Bloodied moon and fallen stars,  
Monstrous skies and poisoned lake.  
Sewage seas and munched up mountains,
murdered birds and tortured animals.  

All bruise a hallowed heart;  
falling off a rainbow rollercoaster.

Society

How does a healthy rose with grown thorns
Take the time out of their day
To degrade a decayed rose without any thorns 
For having to grow up in poisoned soil
That the planter so willingly decided to bury them in?

A Grave Warning

he spent his whole life
poisoned by cupidity...
yet died a pauper
