Untitled War Part One

Untitled War, Part One

I guess this is more of a scratchpad poem than something I should be posting as finished, but I don't want to lose it, and I haven't the time to finish it presently. The idea of nuclear war should scare anyone. We are at a point where humans are literally capable of destroying the ability for our planet to sustain life. I originally was looking to write an introduction for another poem I had written, which is a post-war setting, although reposting things I've written outside of CS is not something I do. Anyhow, it is what it is. Sadness.

I Cut My Wrists

I don't do this anymore, but when i did it was a very depressing part of my life. People think about it all the time they just dont act on it. This is what i felt like when i was doing it... My life is differant now, i may not be the happiest person out there but i know that is not the way to handle stress, I have 2 wonderfull daughters to look out for now, and i want to be here for them while they grow up...

Monster in the Room

Monster in the Room

I tiptoed as quietly as I could. I did not want to be noticed. The air seemed heavy and the sky darkened the land. I knew if I was heard there would be trouble. So I pulled the cloth around my head making a hood. And moved slowly even though I

the haunting of dreams

questions to many questions to many thoughts

Pestilence

Pestilence

Pretty long-winded. I wrote a story about this concept, and this is something of a recap on the general premise. The idea, originally, was of all these destroyed buildings, reminiscent of bombed warzones, which would rise our of the ground, half demolished, but larger than ever, seeping oil and tar, smoking as if on fire, unexplained, across the land, destroying whole landscapes and cities. The idea, of course, was some kind of supernatural justice against the world's inability to solve problems- Taking the form of the exact imagery war has caused, and yet somehow worse, darker, more abysmal, and inescapable as it consumed country, city, nations whole, slowly, slowly. This is somewhat of a constraint, as I've forced the writing into a kind of wave- Ideas expressed must be shorter, shorter, shorter, longer, longer, longer, switch, switch back, in form. 'Wave' form, if you will! lol

The End

The End

Strange thoughts, foreign to a mind, tis not the way, not any day, but, search in vain, release the pain, no other way to find, No truth, no lies, just close your eyes, it's gone, sorrow dies, and who would care?, not they, but gather round
