Sitting on the chest, Bad news inside, Delivery on the horizon, Waiting on the clock to tick by, Seconds turn to days, While living in a mental health haze, Wondering, what the future holds, Symptoms attack while fumbling in the dark, What else to do, But wait, each day, a horrible wait.

Skeleton Heart Shaped Key
Damn I sit here rage inside my chest, Key, skeleton like, Shapely tool to open my chest wide, Wooden ribs sticking outward, As hand reaches in, Beating heart throbs as the jewel is removed, Treasure thief delving deep within. Riding waves on Jolly Rodger, Chest stored deep within the hold, Skeletons in the closet, Hiding…
Valhalla, The Call
Standing at attention Gun at salute, Boat circles about, Fists pound on convoy, Surrounded, hours from safety, Villagers pissed for no reason, Danger, danger, danger close, No regrets, lived life to the fullest, Punching forward, Living to hear Valhalla’s call the next day, Officer standing behind me, 30 seconds away from firing, Mass destruction likely,…
Skyman
Railing against the sky, Middle finger held high, Shouting anger on the rooftops, Sky creature above looking on, Yelling, mad, liar, Destructive life force, Moving dance of destruction, Penance rains down in devastation, Torrents of rain fall, Floods kiss the earth, Sliding with her power, Down mountain she falls, Towards screaming man, Middle finger held…
Liquid Refreshment
Inside the demons dance, Dragging onward to the gates of hell, Taking inventory of souls deception, Liars, cheaters, backstabbers, all alike, Burning onwards into eternity, Dancing the infernal hells. Vampire’s face grins, Taking hold of innocent flesh, Tearing, biting, grabbing, ripping out the heart, Beating flesh in hand, Squeezing the soul, Pressing liquid refreshment for…
Moon Above
Mankind lays on soil, Earth rises, surrounding, Rocks crumble, Water trickles while moving the world, Moon above cries aloud, While the stones echo their silence, Surrounding, taking, destruction rises, Volcanic ash flutters, Mankind rocks the world.
Those of us who seek devastation.
In the wake of nuclear destruction, Nation quakes in violation, Devious education system, Hating equals condition, Vindication cancels revenge, Savior of corrupted nation, Capitalism destroys convention, As Marxism paves the road of desolation, Holocaust distant past memory, Marching us all in harmony, Towards National devastation, Power curved manipulation, Calling for our Nation’s destruction On the…
Bi-Polar Theater.
Inside the dark walls of my heart I sit, Staring at the thumping walls, Singing to me the emotional turmoil, Mixed over the rocks with tumultuous spirits, Beating for days, Never hitting the correct note.
Speed of Rage
Burning rage fuels the speeding train, Rushing one direction to the end, Racing onward life passing passengers by, Unknown destination only to confuse, Those within riding the rails of whim, Forgiving to forget, While forgetting to live, Hurting inside, Yearning only to discern, The why, how, why, Me? Only today as the steam pours, Onward,…
Life, A Little Less Fun
The term adulting became popular later in my life, this is a soft play on my experiences and how I would describe them as ‘adulting’. A little later on, Lights already on, Writing out hooks, Plotting out crooks, Payments a lot overdue, Landlords pocket wet like dew, A.M. burning the candle at both ends, Working…
