Earth

night falls

dry dust

mixed

with tears

for my mother

My Golden Pussy

Some women tweet Their juice is sweet But believe me, I know better

When my honey flows One never knows If you’ll wish you never met her

Thirteen years And through his tears. He yearns for but curses my fame

It’s a little sad That I sit here glad too happy to remember his name

When The Instructor Breaks the Rules.

When The Instructor Breaks the Rules.

Nothing is more heart jerking then accepting a score that is less than what you earned. Especially when you know that the reason you were marked down, has nothing to do with you, or the work you submitted. How many times did you peruse the rubric and tailor your product to get the maximum amount of points on an assignment? I know I committed an obsessive quantity of time perfecting my final…

Martyr

Don’t martyr me,

Throw my love on wood,

Pin my hands and feet,

Spill my blood on the street.

Don’t martyr me,

Bear false witness on my name,

Throw sand in my eyes,

Make me apologize.

Don’t martyr me,

And forget how I helped,

Tell me I’m the only one,

Press my heart against the gun.

Don’t martyr me,

Resurrection is my certainty,

Karma is my…

Black-eyed Susan

When I look in your eyes now; I don’t see. I remember when Us meant so much to me. Could it be that we’re not the same lovers? Cold air violates the warmth under our covers.

I anger that I can’t feel for this. Tormented by what I would miss. Leaving seems drastic, but I’ve changed Repeating this hell is why I’m deranged

I ask myself, why do I keep trying? You’re detached; I’m crying. Will I be…

Where did they put the memory of her? Maybe it’s hidden with their decaying souls, lost amongst their secrets.

Avow

If you ask how I feel, I might say nothing.

Reality only exists when you search for something.

Why are you searching for me?

I made it clear where I would be.

I am the What when Why is unclear

I am the How, at the moment When is Now

Stop looking, when you feel me near.

I love you, I feel you, I see you, I avow.

Silence is where our minds meet

There is too much noise out on the street

Sit and…

Forsake

Seething through our interaction,

Trusts split from the faction

In memory, I promised I wouldn’t tell,

But I reserved you a plot in Hell.

My aversion to Love is rooted in your way.

Uncanny, you knew what I would say.

Three years alive, you broke my spirit

Closed your ears to my screams, here you can read it.

I know you lied; you said you couldn’t change.

Apologies and repentance aren’t within…

That thing you do...yeah you know the way you keep hurting me on purpose by accident.

Bequest

Spill my blood on the floor. I can’t live here anymore.

Spread my light on sweet Earth She can use it for her rebirth.

Spit my life into the sky, So the children don’t see me die.

Lay my heart into his loving palm, Like the first time, I felt calm.

Set my spirit off to Dark. Lay your ear upon the veil and hark.

You hear my laughs are wild and mad, In surrender, there is no sad.

Wine with Wednesday

They told me not to drown my fears, but… this wine is taking all those years, off… and I can’t feel my feet over the heaviness of my head. Even when I try to go to bed, the feeling overwhelms me. I don’t think its healthy. The fruit of the vine, ever present in this glass of wine, is gripping my body like the world is going to end. I will never mend, the frame of mind I can no longer find. When…

RUN

Remember, they tried to

Unhinge you.

Never go back.

The welts were reminders, that I could be beaten but not broken.
