Title Optional
John B Mar 2014
Silence precedes you

The gasp as you glide

A parting of lesser men off to the side

Your smile seductive, deliberate eyes

But the second hand chic was in fact your first lie

"So tell me miss guile, whats your pleasure tonight?"

Wife shopping
John B Jul 2014
Broken, token, laugh it off and smoke then

Pass it off and joke man

Got another pope man,

Slow jam, grindin on a *** and

Oh and!, little did I know she was a big fan

This and find-that-shes-more-into, the kissn 'n' friskin

Maybe that or acting like a kitten,

  So smitten, brisk listen? ***** glistens, so minx like,

Hair, like the haze, of-a-tracer on fair night

Eyes pierce the soul, she'll see any lie comn

Even dumb men, dare-not-try

Have you seen her? you would know man, that's no lie

None compare, gotta stare and her home is the sky as she glides

Its-just-not-fair, how the ground lets her fly

As if the higgs field laments at her stride, a power outside of time,

A crowd slack jawed once shes by, some how I'm catching her eye,

Well-as-they-say-in-poker, guess ill just let it ride...
See were things go, maybe if shes a good hand by the river ill go all in but the flop has been good to me, i'll work to reciprocate...

*edit*
love is a gamble peace of mind for a peace of ***, peace of mind never seems to be a prize on the table in kind, if you see a happy couple you don't know the whole story, if you did happy would not be displaced by delusional or worse....
John B Apr 2014
Cornia corinth the lust in my eyes

Enticement announced with intagable lies

You know that they're there but I sware its allright

Infinitum into my arms for the night

Were is the love?
John B Sep 2015
Ready, steady, aim and fire.

Cupids bow tossed on the pyre

Store the ashes six feet under

suspended in liniment

mixed with silver shavings salt and myrrh

on a glass pedestal in an open agate vessel
I just need a brake, few hundred years, ill be back.

John B May 2016
I pay my rent on time

I put up with incompetence

I get this all the time

I guess I should be used to it

It puts me out of my mind

Invaders come to scrutinize

The quality of care

I've paid to castle fair

What Lord won't hold a feast

But host an inspector?

Never in kind
I've been here for a few years and you build the place with cardboard, you have a ******* problem with anything? seriously **** with me right now, I could accidentally **** you with a flaccid **** twitch I'm so on edge.

Lucifer's Revenge
John B Oct 2015
Cure for the long sick silent planet

Purge of two thirds

Rivers run red

Rise of the once meek disenfranchised masses

Apotheosis epoch of unchecked violence

A war to end all wars

Can't you hear the trumpets sounding

keeps me awake at night starring at my lance
Not yet, hold on, keep breathing, it's coming...

Untitled Poem
John B Jun 2014
Seldom sitting with nothing to say

Still something says something needs saying

Serendipity's sisters surreal squander not the hour but steal

Sour the syntax of squatters, societal squalor

Signal schism split on the dollars solder

Stop, don't take the **** its costing so sock

Silly ceo's who save up and stock

sextillions of things they have and you do not....

oh well I had it going for awhile there... "not"
If you look closely its a bust of squidward...

Well that explains it
John B Feb 2015
Braking down I feel ill

Drowning in earths expanding gravity

Perpetual pain with nary a gain

In this gray scale faux calamity

Daring and dashing

My desperately splashing

Just keeping my head above sanity

So I believe my eyes as I look to the skys

To see satan in the clouds rolling extcy

Granted its slanted but my purview's pervasive

Third eye lens changed

Engaging the plebeians

Get a grip and deal with it

Corrupt, unjust

Preserve Trivium Education
John B Jun 2016
When a child asks you questions

While they are learning of this world

Never anwser them directly

Instead help them to test personally

To understand and see

This is logic!

Michanics, mathematics and reason.

But soon

They will find themselves privy to treasons

Liers and cheats mix with fools in deceit

With the tools of logic this is plan be seen

You must teach them the art of rhetoric

To stop those who would just cause havoc

For if the wise are Ill equipped

Our idiots will face the whip

Believing they deserve of it

The human beaten out of them

The monsters spawned left free to swim

Let this warning full sink in

For next my kin comes academ

The weight of fate!

In the hands of mammalia

To come up to speed

In the fridge of ideas

There you may study

Above all the turnery

To lift up our people

In rightness and honesty

Solving lifes problems

Improving its quality

For all who have yet to come
All I ask of the world!
  Is to follow not blindly but to lead by example and be followed for its virtue, in this every follower is a leader providing a template for success by succeeding.
John B Jun 2012
blood spills in cursive, the truth on the floor.

the wine and the pills from your lips a foam pores.

not a tear or a whine only peace in your eyes.

a shame I'm the only one left here to cry.

I knew I would miss you without you I'll die.

but the note on the floor says are love was a lie......

transcend all of this trying

there is no try, there's only do

and forget all of your wanting

in the place of peace you'll find me

contemplating mortal stew

I make bow strings with sinew

Not saying I head it, Just willing to spred it

Taint taste on my palit

Want in on the habbit

Say cant you see all the the fish in the sea

Even so no one fits with a monster like me

*******

**** I fell

Wish I had a better pail

For hulling my heart

Sitting on ice

Looking for someone to treat it nice

It fell out of my chest

So meany years back

And its ***** and stained

Its torn and cracked

Looking forward

Remembering back

Just hoping that cupid will cut me some slack

Killing time

Still here, you're wine

Songs for the deaf

Some danzig next

That's not homage

Don't drop your jaws

Names romeo so

Do hold the applause

By any other id smell of feet

So totally not my fault if I sweep you off them
This peace is equal parts to help and confused future philologists

What changed

You never had anything bad to say

We spoke so little and there's nothing new

I fear he's doing this not you

Its strange you don't tell me

Last we spoke you promised not to be a stranger anymore

But I'm blocked on everything And its got me low

How do I know that your breathing

How do I share those feelings that explode from me

Not here among the rabble

If not for my pet I'd have gone home

I just want to go home

But she would miss me like I miss you

I'm not so selfish.
Id glass this rock faster then you can say "what now?" If I was so easily swayed but if its her I want a why and if its him I want to see him suffer for decades. So to just suddenly no longer be a habitable planet. It does not pass. I'm angry and hurt. Mostly disappointed. Ready for war with our world but hung up on a girl.

Irony
John B Mar 2014
Sorry if I'm bias to the dip **** quandary.

Stuttering and slurring there, your tongues first time on manual?

Pride to high for your mind to find the time?

Proses now can you see the crowd around?

Intrinsic non aestheticism?

If that means selling your furniture for H

Non sequitur again to make sure your not listening.

Now its just a matter bringing everyone else in on the joke.
and all you had to do was not pretend to know everything

Irony in context: an incongruity between a situation developed in a drama and the accompanying words or actions that is understood by the audience but not by the characters in the play —called also dramatic irony, tragic irony
John B Sep 2015
Hemorrhaging black bile feelings at lost lovers

Lone in the night with the moon as my nearest cover

Hung from the mantle a trophy for god almighty

Running from the true king and god of all

Unrequited Lust
John B Oct 2015
Its the way you move

like the wine in my glass

As if beckoning for review

And so it started with your legs

Black heals on gray hose

Hide porcelain from prying eyes

Your skirts flow keeping drafts in mind

Are you wind?

Are you water?

Nourishing my soul through tired eyes

You hung your blazer at the bar and sat

Your shoulders bearing weight still

As if natural

Such beautiful resolve

I found myself here next to you then

And you ordered my bottle

The least I can do is pay

Now will you share a glass or send me on my way?
She was working in the herald building, has a man, more serious then she is, I told her that wasn't something to complain about as long as he's well grounded, he wants kids! Strange but he's not in a rush so I taught her the red flags to look for and wished her the best of luck, she apologized for wasting my time but It was worth the hug you wonderful woman! I genuinely hope you get your happily ever after! Whoever you end up with in the end! Hopefully with not so much heart brake and worry on the way there as there was on the way here...

fit of anger unsheathing his knife
well at least I can stop him without explaining my presence.

No not at home here, prepares fist to throw

Not for me but for her? slap NO!!!! COME TALK WITH ME BRO!!!!

This is none of your business.

"Then you may be confused by this" I say wile placing his face into my fist

"Why would you do that!!! " she screamed

Because he slapped you in broad daylight for having drinks with me.

"Hes unconscious!!!" she cry's as she runs to his side

It's been awhile but still

I wake up entranced

Stuck on your mannerisms

Locked in a dance with your memory

Like you could pop in any minute for dabs

Sorry my heart is so weak

I wish I could rekindle my inner fire

If only just to call you back into my life

To douse it again

Suspect that certainty

You cut me so deeply

By mistake

In passing
Only time will tell me if your fated to be a curse on me, a blessing hard earned or just a memory well burned into my mind.

Woke up to the cold from a window with a fan that had been off inexplicably the whole night prior still

Chilled from a dream that ended with a sudden wind on the tip of a peninsula that knocked me off again

With the raze of children's games as car doors slam screams for help aloft from voices on my cry's wolf list

What I might give to sleep until rested battling sand men until broken or bested, unworthy of slumber that

Like what my foes get, requisitioning golems and gargoyles seems like a safe bet but ill have a mimosa
At 11am? Its been a rough morning.
