Punk Funk

chronic aging  sonic raging  do not go gently into that white noise  rage against the aging  of your sound

Exploit

A puppet  Lynched by its string

You Robot

Asimov forgot to exclude love  Now the automation of our lives  And individualism are intertwined 

[juryoftheword]

Entitlement

Welfare portrayed   As cradle to grave  While the alternative stays  Maternity unpaid  While they up-charge the grave

Wake

Nothing quite gets out the stains  Like the early morning light  Even last night’s pains  Will start to look alright  So dust off those eyes  And water your throat It’s time to step outside  Of your mind and into hope

Moving Off

I miss the way I missed you  I long for that old longing  I wish I could still wish for you  But I’ve promised to stop mourning

Dressed in all black you haunt my dreams Broken and lost I am still wandering The truth is that some days i wake up And find that I don't really want to be alive It's been months and thoughts still linger In the dark I can still see those demons During the day I still live those nightmares And in the morning wake up and do it again What I used to call home is just bad memories My contorted heart is rough around the edges If I should lie still some morning in my bed I would kindly ask that you dress in something Other than the color black you broke my heart in Maybe some bright colors that we all like, We all know how you like those floral patterns

Vultures

When you came a rumbling  The walls came crumbling  And the vultures came  To peck at the crumbs  And where are you?  Whilst I succumb  To the epilogue Of the love you wrote  The runaway author  Missing her story’s close
