Broken thoughts from angry times
lack of money equals heavy crimes
shattered memories on the floor
where is fate to knock on my door

Some people now persecute my thought
new ideas and rules of iron wrought
we are afraid of the night coming here
in the darkness lurks all our fear

I can no longer feel because of hate that's blind
these things have now crossed my mind
scary things now in my head
evil thoughts they have bred

when darkness covers the walls and floor
these sights we see will be no more

  View from the Park

Everyone has their own tale to tell,
Life's hard road makes some want to bail.

See that man over there playing with his kids?
Last year his baby died of S.I.D.S.
Then his wife fucked some other dude,
And turned around and had him sued.

See that woman walking briskly around the track?
Her best friend just stabbed her in the back.
Told everyone she was addicted to crack,
Just to get her ol' man in the sack.

See that girl hiding just inside?
She has attempted suicide.
She really doesn't want to live,
She is so tired of what life has to give.

See that little girl drinking from the fountain?
Her uncle raped her while her parents were on the mountain.
He told her never to tell,
So horrifying was her yell.

See that boy on the jungle gym?
His daddy drinks and often beats him.
What hurts him most is his mother knows,
When it starts he hears her door close.

See that baby over in the carriage?
One day it will suffer with disparage.
Everyone's life is torment and pain,
I do hope it's not all in vain.

Darkness

The darkness binds me.
It's what keeps me sane,
But theres a fine line there.
It soothes my soul,
My spirit, and mind.
Everything is equal.
For it hides the imperfections.
It cloaks my body
With a black shroud.
For the darkness,
Is part of me.

Estrangement of Love

Emotionless and cold,
Heartlessly bold.
Blood turns to oil,
Constant turmoil.
Thoughts are scattered,
Heart shattered.
No where to turn,
Lovers burn.
This is hell,
Can't yell.
How to cope,
Abandon hope.
Grasping at straws,
Lost cause.
Absent is desire,
Smoldering fire.
Love is vague,
Poisonous plague.

To My Circle of Defectives…
I win
When I realize
The masquerade
Is not sporadic,
But eternal

And the splinters
Caught in my spine
Reciprocate the open wounds
Fashioned as lovely expression

This microcosmic apocalypse:
Condemnation before contempt,
Judgment by blood puppets;
Maggots with cardboard crowns

An often muted
Circle of defectives,
Only finding an exhausted voice
In the martyrdom of another’s words

Now your dried crops are ensured;
Fed by the dirty red,
Bled from an unwilling swell

“He who is without sin…”
Was everyone but me.
(To the weak-minded assembly,
give my regards to irony)

These disillusioned
Mark a time they never knew;
A prophesy of larceny-
Pseudo manic lyricists

Sliced me into small portions,
Dropped what can’t be chewed.
Swallow it and make it yours-
The ungrateful cannibal crew

My hate’s a poison tab-
An overdose that I know is inside
The hardest trip we’ll ever have;

As I melt away, I watch you die.
