Days go by at the speed of life Tick after tick I feel the slow knife One more wrinkle upon my face One more reminder of my fleeting place I started out stronger than the fire of hell But not long after began the toll of the bell The spirit leads and the flesh shouldContinue reading “Built to last”

Time is now
There was a time There was a time When I believed in tomorrow Far away was my sorrow But look at me now would you Fixed to the ground could you All I know is yesterday Futures now cast away You can’t trust the plan If you don’t know the man It’s really a sadContinue reading “Time is now”
Twilight’s Last Gleaming
It’s all poetry after all We saw the rise We saw the fall Come to me amidst fiery skies Choke back the smoke Killing one another over lies We never cared about fallout Only winning Cast away all doubt What is this travesty we’ve become? Left with two paths One, murder and the other, martyrdomContinue reading “Twilight’s Last Gleaming”

Obsolescence
Trading bodies just to be somebody Feeling up and down like a nobody In the end I’m just me Nothing if not un-free Dancing through the smog of the pretty city Laughing all the while feeling pretty shitty Can you read between the lines of my sad story Or did your eyes glaze over findingContinue reading “Obsolescence”

Swallow the Horizon
All of humanity begins and ends feeling only desire We want for food, shelter, water, crawling in the mire We grope in endless black clinging to each other Hoping for comfort only when not killing one another Some refuse the abyss in favor of hard upward ascent While others disbelieving in peaks elect for eternalContinue reading “Swallow the Horizon”
Dead On Arrival
I smiled as my blood poured out of me The wounds gushing forth life effortlessly The priest frantically sewing me together Neverminding my body now light as a feather My soul slowly leaving as the light of my eyes dies I found the death’s truths easier to bear than life’s lies So I gave upContinue reading “Dead On Arrival”
The Future Was Too Late
Would that the world’s weariness would cease That life would be left to herself in silent peace Ne’er a day goes by without the scream of death Ne’er an hour when we can’t feel it’s hot breath In what book does a spell lay to end this pain? Bearded men searched the centuries all inContinue reading “The Future Was Too Late”
