Wrong crowd empty cup
she dipped her toes
in the wrong throes
tumbling like a lost kite
head-spinning
blinded by the height,
the eyes have vision
but this naive girl
had compromised her sight,
abandoned and disgraced
catching the twenty-two
in-between
a rock and a hard place.
Unseal your own drinks
pour your own cups
and scrutinize all meals
you have the right
to be careful.

She rarely left her own mind
and when she did
the outside seemed
so unkind

Fireball's through
The sky as children
Cry and the never ending
War and sadness all my life
And heartbreak every day
And children dying
In cold blood today and
It's just an other sad day
In war torn Palestine today.
I Contacted The International Criminal Court Over War Crimes In Palestine, The American Government said No War Crimes Where Committed.

Sometimes
It's quiet
In our head
But loud
Everywhere else
We sit
And we wait for something
New
Something
Exciting maybe
And yet we still sit
Patience hasn't gotten us far
But we still
Wait
Patiently waiting
For some sort of waste
Some time with those who mean the most
But we can't
Always have that
Because it's quiet in our head
Loud outside
People have come
And they've gone
No trace
But we still think to them
Because part of us miss them
And yet
We stay
Quiet

I like
having to pay
that *******
the universe
everyday
in order
to get
to play
