Unreliable Narrator
It was dark, We were six, The air was filled with the heavy smell of cigarettes and weed, Some drank, 'I' did too. You were dancing to the rhythms of jazz. And you were gazing at the stars. While you stared into your phone screen. She and him talked. And you... You were silent. Maybe thinking "What was the conversation?" "What was that noise?" "What transpired?" And then...

The Scar
THE SCAR It was time to introduce myself To the school for learning. They dragged me against my wish, I cried, yelled and rebelled, For separating me from my mom Whom I loved so much. In the master's house, Squatting on the rough veranda, Along with forty other little ones That was really a chocking up experience. The first day I spent the...

Then suddenly (without warning) the engine revs high, and...

Unreliable You
Why can't you tell the truth? Why are you not reliable? Why will you tell me 'today' And today you'll say 'tomorrow'? Why can't anyone trust you? Why is your yes not yes And your no not no? You disappoint people as a way of life And it's okay by you You don't care about people Or at least about your name You've foiled...

Unreliable Narator
He was unreliable in many more ways then just the one, Stretched his black wings and left his family for fun, Now his life is complete as he sits at a computer screen, Leading others from God with *********** that is obscene. Latching on to the innocent and those who are pure, Hand in hand with satan to coax and...
