 The neurosis of my psychosis....

into a plethora filled emporium    of creatively flowing
psychosis...

I sit silently
In the seat of psychosis
And watch my feathers burn
The wind whispers
Wicked words of blame
Lit by the light
Of self fuelled flames...

Buried deep in psychosis it rotted
All the while it schemed and it plotted
   When faced with the truth
   Its responses uncouth
The nature of it had been spotted...

Started out writing about this guy's psychosis
Then all of a sudden
My mind unbuttoned
Went down the path of penguins ferocious...

Brains Weirdly Bunched

Angel touched and said I was touched;
When he and I had together lunched;
Naughty neurosis;
Plentiful psychosis,
And my brains were weirdly bunched.

I had this strange, incurable psychosis
Most of the time it was all in my head
But this bout was a case of trichinosis
Here I lie happily well-fed…and dead

Listen to poem:

Drac, Wolf, Frank, and Claude

Bela to Lon, doubtless psychosis,
Karloff insert he needs hypnosis,
those three murmured on,
awe night till scared dawn,
Rain unseen flights for diagnosis.

You’ve heard of schizophrenia and psychosis sure, 
And you’ve heard of bipolar and how there is no cure.  
But, why does nobody talk about the thing that is both?
The thing that also takes a mindset of growth....

Every place is
An Oasis 
I see Your face is 
on other faces
and your voice is
peoples voices
and replaces
Other noises
This is what I Notice 
I think that you should know this
it feels just like Psychosis...

Strange how psychosis seems to be the leverage for genius
Fragment the truth 
bevel reality
Within the derelict wasteland of inspiration
the resolution will be found
That sinkhole reverts
and the illusion of truth can never be known...

I'm on point of psychosis. 
I'm haunted by silken dusk.
howls echo to wry Croesus.
reflects my deep-seated whimsy brusque.

Rhyme is a crime,
A misdemeanor or more.
And cadence is worse—a rhythmical verse
Is a felony critics abhor.

“Love” gets a shove
In the ash-can where Beauty “belongs”.
Psychosis is “in”—optimism’s a sin:
Down the toilet with heart wringing songs!...

Madness
Mild Psychosis
Grips fragile Precipice
Escalating Insanity
Purple sirens poised beneath numb bleached eyes
Staring down white bulbs blanking glare
Piercing screams flip the surge
Neurostatements
Madness

A familiar sunshine
Fragile grins and warm hugs
Wilting trees
A shifting decade

It starts to rain
Strange conversations unnecessary
Youth decayed and childhood dismantled
A slow shadow play towards the end

Crippling wind
Monotonous basics
My Truth is an anomaly
In the end, we are all a dying story....

Wye, 2 Konfabulation
 



Come folk; gather to my proboscis 
And hark to my impending psychosis. 
Tonight is December thirty-fust, 
Something is about to bust. 
\The clock is crouching, ready to pounce; 
Of pity it'll not give an ounce. 
This way comes rapacity, penury. 
Duck, here comes another century....
