Premium Member Sorry, no! I don't want to go gentle into that good night
Sorry, no! I don't want to go gentle into that good night!
I'm not up for a long, unendurable, end-of-life fight.
When it's my time, I'll opt for a quick, euthanistic squirt,
so I'll feel only a tiny pin prick of hurt,
as my eyes bid a gentle goodnight ~ to the dying of the light....

Unendurable
Unendurable,
Incurable,
Out of breath
Before out of bed,
Dying slowly,
More each day

My destiny handed to me
In a twenty-pack
Foil sealed set
Young and dumb,
And lighting up
Of my invincibility
Then I would've bet

Smoke dissipates in the room,
As my life will in the sky,
Just when I lit the first one,
I don't know,
And surely wonder why....

The Lone Veteran
Visions unendurable
Thoughts not erasable
Tracers of red
Running through my heard

Yellow smoke for the dust off
Brings tears
Death and destruction
Memories of loss

Haunting images
Ghosts haunting me
Blood on my hands
Unable to clean

Youth destroyed
By war
Hate and anger
Unknown to me

Until The War

Tribute To All Veterans on
Veterans Day...

Life In a Hot, Windowless Basement Dungeon
I sit and sweat,
My pain does swell,
I'm living in
this unholy hell...

Time drags,
Like my lamed foot,
that twists and turns with glee,
The pain so much unendurable
Has got the best of me

The silence
of the empty wallet
The silence
of the grave
It's been me that I have lost,
No longer am I brave..
Living in this rat-hole,
is like living in a cave....
