into a plethora filled emporium    of creatively flowing

I Silently Sit

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

When facts are misnomers
and life is just numbers
When the cards are stacked
and our conscience is hacked
When we elect kingpins

The house always wins

Psychotic Nature Unveiled

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

Premium Member His Grief In Another Universe

He all of a sudden experiences a new psychosis,
As he solemnly stands in the sunset in his grieving process,
Tossing onto her grave a thousand stemless red roses.

Brains Weirdly Bunched

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.

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

Schizoaffective

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.

Psychosis

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

Check Please

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

Today's Style Sheet

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!

Premium Member Rx for Halitosis

     I underwent osmosis
        to get rid of halitosis

    Developed a psychosis
        frightening neurosis

    Signed up for group-hypnosis
        just got a diagnosis 

     Downing meds with garlic juice
        made my breath atrocious

Madness

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 © Kim van Breda – 27 October 2014

Premium Member Psychosis

a throbbing ache emanating from the heart
infecting the blood that runs though its veins

pulsating a malicious toxic venom
contaminating every thought

distressing and impeding psychosomatic pain
mind over matter in a dark defeatist manner

Delusion

Delusion must be a comforting thing; To see the world just how you like. To give you purpose every day And let reality take a hike. But don't be troubled When I say that; Delusion Is just fine For the psychopaths and the egg shell brained, swimming in life's brine

Emotional Psychosis

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.
