mysteries
Mysteries are like blame,
Clues wash off in the rain
You are so splendidly
inside and out beautiful,
Catch the inflated coloured ball
and kick it back to the smalls,
You and I had a decent distraction,
though brief, it made me feel tall.
You love how I can flow and rhyme
and you sparkle like a new-born dime
Carve every tree in a park of our names
You're the one fantastically,
and so realistically,
erases reality and how I'm numb.....
I'll chase you through teasing trees
and dodge all the angry wasps and bees
Just to be in your arms breathing silently.

sea salt
sea salt leaves the memories,
of child-hood fun and gentle tease,
snap-shot in such comforting breeze,
They'll always judge and create make-believe.

Eyes on sea shells , ears of roaring oceans,
the smell of stench contrasts so easily
The factory nearby took the guilt reasonably,
All it takes is an ocean and their capitalism.

water
They all light me up like halloween
but I'm heading for death anyway,
and the things that I have seen
have me wish for my final days.
Tumble and wish for the clicks
of her sweet giggling fingers,
My wish is for rags to burn quickly
like the magic of that one finger trick

fire
twenty miles dark passage,
gulps of sore throat something,
Dusk cuts me up like a tv screen
that displays psychedelic vision.
Its so easy to blow and be brave
if unchained not like the depraved
And I miss that school daddy wave
and visits with friends in the country.

shaking....
I woke up shaking,
and full of anxiety,
after a 2 day binge
of wine and spirits.
This time, it was different,
I didn't had my pregabalin
so I bought two bottles
of smirnoff *****
I'm going to be *******
but those thoughts
were a fish caught
and I felt terrible
for how I treated
such decent people.

untitled
I'm going out,
my way.
I disappoint,
my father
and if my mother
was still alive
She would be
destroyed
with how I
made
the innocent
cry.
I just hope,
I don't twist
anyone's
sleepy eyes
with my demons
anymore.
I'll sip the poison
slowly
and what remains
can't be undone.
Its what
destroys me the most.

killing arrow
I wish I had a killing arrow,
and a whim in the breeze
for every shattered hello
and a dying wish of please.

Rocky stairs that crumble,
like your apple pie humbles
I wish I had a blow of a kiss
for every moment that I miss.
The trolls here that flag poems
that are not against the rules
should be banned.
I've had about 20 flagged
and none of them were
even close to taboo.
I know who they are
but naming them
will see me cop a ban.

Its crap they keep getting away with it.
Mods, can you please make it that only
proven members here who are not
trolls in disguise can flag poems here?

In other words, anyone without AI created poetry
and at least 60 days of being a member here?

Self-Infliction
I used to chase dreams like helium balloons
Now I can't get out of bed till after noon
I have found my infliction is my own,
Sometimes, the seeds will never grow.

Battling disease while I cannot feel alive,
I miss the thrills of a cliff dare of a dive
Hitting the water from way up so high
Vision blurred from salty water in my eyes.

I feel that shadow that will bring me death,
every time I heave with my heavy breathes
I never learnt to battle demons past my wall
And the bricks they used to smash me over-all.

The people I've hurt are more demons in my head,
It won't be long until these tyres will lose the tread.

Vermin
How can something so small, doesn't bite but tremble in your hands, a vegan and defenceless be called Vermin?
I've had a family scattering around my bed-room for years now and I'm not diseased except for my liver, but its caused by my drinking.  Not my ****** little friends who do me a favour by snacking on Doritos crumbs. One of them is not even shy of me anymore, as they are actually highly intelligent creatures. He or she snacks under my feet and looks up as if to say thank-you.
What angers me are those who use mouse-traps as often they are torture devices that don't instantly **** or maim without killing.
Would you do this to a defenceless child?
Mind you, I do have to admit my hypocrisy here as I do enjoy chicken, lamb, pork, etc etc and the slaughter houses are just as cruel. Mind you, I have to say the plant based burgers these days are literally un-distinguishable from the meat based burgers so I always order them when possible. And try not to feel guilty when I tuck into a delicious half chicken combo at Nandos.
Mind you, Chickens are dumb creatures and the plump ones on farms leave me feeling hungry.
Missing you More than Mildly (Revision 3)


Taste of sweet you, heavenly,
Pain is my decree,
The Flock of shot firing birds,
love un-discriminately,
An arrow wounds & kills me
Mild's the insane.
We keep on kissing
Flowing down rails,
Kicking old dusty bottles
Limper our bruises,
Tick tock, all the sounds
Missing you more than mildly
Its a jumbled Haiku piece.  One day I'll revise it into a 5,7,5, 5,7,5, etc etc.
I don't normally revise my pieces but this one is one I like to make changes to. " The Flock of shot firing birds" is a tribute line to woman's feminism. Literally the same as " I am woman, hear me roar"
There's nothing worse,
than taking a big sip of
the burnest of whiskey
and forgetting
to mix it with ******* Pepsi.

God, it burns and I cough and splatter
and kids in a nearby sandpit wonders
what the hell is this guy on and does it matter.
I fall down near them and they bury my head
in the ******* sand-pit.
Little *****.

Grand Niece
I met briefly my grand niece,
as they travelled over here,
to see my ailing father,
but he rose to a grand picture.
14 years old and drop dead sweet.
And a brain of such intelligence
her grades are off the charts of mastery
I hope will become a special somebody.
They have returned back to the East,
and my life's no yonder for this beast.

Seventeen
You can't be fooled by the beauty
of a sweet-heart who is seventeen,
you can look away but repression,
leads to a close mind of no serenity,
It doesn't hurt to appreciate the art,
just don't  break the merchandise,

There's no denying her sin-less skin,
as of her eyes that are of gentle-ness,
and her hair that glows wildly in the sun
she turns the heads of almost all gentlemen
She's gorgeous and her developed youth-full-ness,
is a god-send, to admire beauty so truly blessed.
Image of the seven-teen year old beauty queen. Notice how her hand of force is saying, don't invade my boundaries, respect me.

Toxicity
This toxicity runs through my blood-stream,
This building filled of barbed wire's on fire
The prince disdains and proves a psychopath
Dreams are abolished and cast to never so last,
Crazy comes emotions that causes an explosion.
Her hair's blue as a lagoon,
and eyes as lightly green as the water,
She took my shaking trembling hands,
and we disappeared from these lands,
swimming and embracing our selves,
This was the time I lost my-self.
In her cornea and skin so soft
Today was the day I'll always
have a vision of passionate minutes.
First love is always one you never forget.

— The End —
