My heart still hangs in my mouth
its whimper sounds like a whisper, it slips as it slithers away
the loud fear it left on my mind still spins my spine
i run, forgetting my heart is still hanging in my mouth~
it pounds like a tornado blowing through my veins
the ricochets of its anger shudder even my tiniest nerves
our nights and days will never

AI Stole Your Spine
Have you any pride
Why must you use AI
Poets submitting honestly
Are the ones deserving to compete
I look at the AI detector results
And shake my head at insult
If your goal was to get published
Don’t use AI it is detected rubbish!!!!

Strength has rusted deep into my spine, a beautiful, corroded iron
Strength has rusted deep into my spine, a beautiful, corroded iron,
Twisting through each vertebra like a vine of steel, a bittersweet trap,
They call it resilience, but I call it a silent tomb, a milestone of my soul,
I sleep in armor that no longer opens, each breath becomes a negotiation
Between the instinct to survive and the

Spine Chilling
Ice pops and cold brew in a gust,
twice shy but always I’m bitten;
Price is right for the richest high,
spice swirled in leaves a gal smitten;
Cheat code for a frosty blizzard,
treat black ice until it’s melting;
Heat isn’t just born in a fire,
beat that fever with spine-chilling.

A Spine Within A Heart
A spine within a heart
My heart aches within
Something pushing and poking in
Poking out
Knowing out
Trapped in
Happiness is within trying to seep out
Through the little cracks of grey, it seems
Gold elixir fading away
Into the grey clouds, we know today
Pouring with pins and needles
That just pins you and kneads you
Intoa paste that washes away

I've met Scarecrows with more Spine than you!
I'm not addicted, so this will be easy
It's a hard truth to hear so I just tune it out
and I’m arguing with walls
but I end up letting them fall on me
“But it can only be as violent as your imagination,”
She said quietly
Well you're still smiling in the mirror
And that tells me failure

Bliss Energised Spine
Bliss energised spine
Synced with love beats chime,
God’s blessings sublime
throbs as pulse divine,
implanted in spine.
Assimilation
of bliss elation
takes us to heaven
through chakras seven.
Crown, third eye and heart
cause rapture to start;
love flow unending,
as joy ascending.
The way is easy;
rest desires sleazy.
Nothing need be done,
when we’re with God one.

Broken Spine
BROKEN SPINE:
This is ANDERSON WALKINGSHOES...
Chorus:
Time surely flies,
As I remember the day you walked in as my bride;
My heart was glad as my soul joyfully cried.
And the feeling brought in me a strong light,
At last when you became my wife.
That moment's still fresh in my mind.
Woooooo.....hey
Woooooo.....heeheheeeee.....
Chorus:
Time surely flies,
As I remember the day you walked

Navigating My Health
My spinal column was extremely painful.
As a believer in bodily regeneration
I had endured for long, hopeful
For a natural recuperation.
However, the condition kept getting worse.
Changing sides in bed waxed hard.
The back felt any sudden force
On the ribs if pushed outward.
It being then several weeks of this ordeal
I was forced to seek medical help.
I figured that

Anterarch
her spine that musical instrument
I strummed plucking sounds chords and tones
in axis, the toothed vertebra
she turned her head saying she knew
everything I know she didn't know
about heathen nights and their shifting moons
or all jesus christs in christianity but it's a lie
as I climbed my fingers now in atlas
carefully completing the bone contour
even in her eye

Piercing My Spine
With Blades
I have drawn
In my restless sleep
I linger in the past
Were my souls
Dry husks of horrors
Are cast
Each one an image in time
The dead feelings have no life
Each blade cuts the dead life away
Like dried skin tattooed with history.
I have drawn sharp blades
in sleepless nights.
They are cast in the infernos
of my Tortured mind.
Furnaces
