children's blood...

C arried through life on the spillage of blood
R azed raw by ruthlessly sadistic emotions
Y earning desperately for death...

Put:
A spill of oil
An excessive shower of water
A clump of main substance
A quadrant of eggs
Some mistakes
Some naughty words
A spillage
Allow to bake for too long
A wonderful Mum cake – perfect to touch and to taste...

Raspberry, as glaringly large
Package with bulk, bulging.
Squirrel-eyed and squirrel-grasped.
Nuts, bells; enough weighing!

Thinks me, thinks he, if and once dropped:
"The spillage! Red flood-tide!
Every brown leaf to re-tint!
As yet branched high and wide!"...

Love got emptied
Words became sad
And feelings were buried

Her memories were gone
Blood flowed like an oil spillage
Love lost its silence

Trust was betrayed
My heart was torn apart
Broken images were shown

Life was made blind
I got lost into your world
And you sailed away...

Nighttime is the time when
things spill out of
a child's blanket..
a broken crayon
first day of school
a first hero 
a talking frog
training wheels
a tiny tow truck
heart broken
driver's license
cell phone
never home
graduation.
Nighttime is the time when
things spill out of
a child's blanket......

Thick viscous liquid on top
as the herons hover round,
looking for a way to grab
their underneath preys.

entrapped preys struggle for air,
fisher men confused and stunned,
Movement of tourists hindered,
water can`t be drunk.

The queen of the birds Sari was a menace to the village
                  She had the prying eyes and ears for every act of spillage
                           She saw Tara's husband in Sara's bedroom
                     She called out all birds and her creaky bridegroom 
               Out came the villagers when they yelled pillage pillage pillage...

Her behaviour is nothing but heinous, 
sarah ain’t evil she’s brainless, 
you wanna feel the way her mind does think,
to prevent spillage takes the ice out her drink, 
she had friends rent out a room 
to stage a fake official leaving due, 
and I know her friend has come back around 
because suddenly she’s not acting a clown 
Rose White removed
because one tells one what to do...

The route seems to elongate the race
character speaks loudest, to score the brace
limited ideas combine, there is a Logan berry
too young an opportunity, not really hairy
indoor is not nice, better a Lido
this will be retracted when there’s a tornado
a situation to cause a semi cheer,
this limited space will accommodate a lawn chair
the one who snubs and expects a spillage
uses his own arms to embrace spoilage....

she knows me best 
when i try to hard to
be mysterious

she calls me out and 
makes me maniacal and
delirious

the magnifying glass 
transforms into an
hourglass

i drift into space and
entrance myself as i
devour mass

what i immediately learn
about myself is that i am
a terrible liar

the abstract art is just 
worthless spillage on a
mostly blank canvas, 
which makes her 
impression of me lower
rather than higher...

Had I known your betrayal, 
I would have let go,
And free myself from you. 

Deep down, we know the wits of love,
A poison made from the cups of romance. 
I drank too much from those used ones... 

I need to buy new ones to cover your spillage,
A mess in pieces on the floor of my core.
Would it have been better if you had cleaned? 

Perhaps, perhaps not..
Notice your indifference...
Am stuck to be your man maid!
A hilt in my gentle hood....

Spirits shook in a half empty tumbler’s unease

Trembling hands fumbled the spillage of disease

He lost his staggering soul quaking and marred

At the bar of destruction from finish to start



Stirred and shaken an olive branch fell into his fray

A guardian angel suspended increasing decay

Touched some remnant of reason and reinvented

Water from wine no more fragments fermented
