KEEP THE TOXIC AWAY
KEEP THE TOXIC AWAY SWEEPING UP MY HEART, PUTTING THE TOXIC AWAY. LIVING IN ECSTASY, KEEPING MY BODY SWAY. SING MELONCHOLY STRAIN, REMIND ME OF ALL PAINS MEMORIES OF PAST MAY COME AND GO, BUT ONE NEEDS TO BE IN FLOW. NOW CESTEN MOTIONLESS STILL, AND MOUNTED UP THE HILL. MUSIC IN MY HEART AND I DANCE, KNOW THAT IT WAS NOT BY CHANCE. ...

National Poetry Month
Ghost, River, Gaze, Erase, Tender, Cold. Memories of you, Ripple across my thoughts. Your smile , Your gaze — Though I suppose both were cold to my touch— I still hope you felt something. Something to be haunted by, So the ghost of my laughter keeps you up at night— I know you don’t care. So don’t pretend to be tender, You acted like my...

Serpents, Scorpions, and Owls
What do you look for in a man? I usually say wisdom. An owl that is respectful, Thinks with his head, But still acknowledges the heart. As much as i pretend to love those birds, Who flock to your side once smitten— I tend to fall, For those sly serpents, Who could care less if I’m eaten. I know they tell lies, But their sickly...

I'll Help You
See’s clouds are beautiful, Rolling, unique, and soft, Her rain is toxic, Poison leaving a dark matter on your forehead. See’s mouth is sharp, Destructive and kills the clouds, Kills what once was beautiful. Hope lives in the cracked mirror, The one her father hadn’t loved, Fill the cracks, let it scar, But the clouds will roll beautifully again. ...

Toxic
Boys will be boys, should we change our approaches? It invades our society, infesting like cockroaches. Is it something that we unfairly blame on our coaches? Or should we instead stop this before it encroaches? Is it time to call time on this self-destructive trait? Something we excuse with ‘it’s only banter mate’. Instead, should we consider our words and our...

Toxic Amalgamations Can Be Beautiful Too
They are too foggy, Dreams, visions, etc.; I don’t know, I don’t remember, but o’ wait! Yes, a distinct memory. I started remembering words hoarse, dry words mixed with the lemonade air. a conversation? The smell of heated leather chains me to the patio where the goddess sits. I have lost faith in her, no longer a goddess but my birthmother. The second person in...

Heartbound
A cold, silver knife rests on my shaking fingers. I graze the blade across my life; the slicing of it lingers. I push the metal through my skin, right to my chest, it cuts. I have to let the blade in, to remove my outer crust. I peel, I tear, I rip to reveal my blood-stained bones. I put my hand up to my ribs, and...

Venom Kiss
You pull me in like a velvet snare, whisper lies in the midnight air. Every touch is a loaded gun, but I can’t stop, no, I won’t run. Dripping sweet like cyanide, I taste the death behind your smile. Tangled tight in your design, one more hit, just one more time. Venom kiss, lace my veins, burning slow but I love the pain. You’re the...

Hillbilly VP JD Vance Surely hails from bad circumstance Though spruced up by Yale He acts much too male To hide the wee lance in his pants Note: Many other misogynists share this issue (DT, EM, 19 year-old college drop out Rye Country Day School wimp "Big Balls", etc). ...

Premium Member Toxic Heart Art
I’ve been listening to your eyes The way they smile the way they cry Pulling for miles red heart’s insides Little crows feet forming thin lines Telling what tickle’s mahogany mind Or what pickles in memory’s teal time You’ve got hearts on a string Obedient like art got them trained Glance from you like calling name Love is a Lion and so we...

The Chains we Make
Instead of someone, I feel like no one. because I know when all is done, To you I’m work, but to me you’re fun. But who you met, was not the one you now will find; whose trust you’ve kept, who now confides; the truth of what was built on lies. Nothing lasts, our paths are fast approaching days...

Tainted flowers
Darkness surrounds me I can no longer move The flowers you once gave me Now entraps me in its roots How could kindness turn so rude Yet I will never stop loving you I watch as these flowers now black Suffocate me Wrapping around choking out my breath Keeping from me air needed to survive Voices whisper in my head This is...

The Cold Hutch
Living in the sunless cold hutch of till death do us apart, sits a chipping soul. Never had he thought she did be a blotch of many shades. Spitting and pouring scorn on his dreams of a happy home. “What? Are you even a man? Your mates are out there...”...
