A nightmare unfolds Pt 1

A nightmare unfolds...Pt.1

There is a place, We were told not to go, The four of us, A girl included, With signs and symbols seen, All around the place, Hiding shadow with eyes, Watching our every moment. With the sound of thunder, A dark storm is coming, We have no

The faces of Lies deceits and betrayals

The faces of Lies,deceits and betrayals !

Whitish grey, Do you lie? Please tell me why, Greyish white, Harmless and thoughtless, Tale binding with a long tail behind. Light darkish grey, Colours spectrum of deceit. There is so many reasons to bluff. Caught red handed, Fear is the m

Guilt

Guilt

Guilt is not your friend, But is it…it depends Guilt, the stink of sludge And the color of mud Guilt, the reminder of the past Of harm and pain surpassed Guilt, is the devil in disguise Waiting for your soul to die Guilt, is

Castaway on the Moon

Castaway on the Moon

A sober sonnet reflecting my lonely mood on a wet, cold drizzly day feels as if being trapped inside of a spider's coccoon (wrapped by clouds)....for who knows how long ....weird thought ...I know...

About my 2nd Husband

Downward spiral

Downward spiral

A little dark poetry...

Ma'at

Have you ever thought about what it would take to restore life's balance? To fix it where humanity was one with life? Instead of people out there hustling around trying to event this and that to make things better as they see it they would be just enjoying the world as one of natures miracles? To not have anyone better than the other? Richer than the other? The right color? The right size? Just simply allowed to be? To roam the earth to eat the fruits off the trees? Without getting a shot gun shoved in your face and told to get off my property. Because there would no longer be your property or mine. I cannot help but wonder when did we decide we could take property and call it ours? Was this the beginning of the end?

One Day Past a Lifetime

One Day Past a Lifetime

Why is it the world is still spinning Have they not noticed that I am dead Am I that insignificant that no-one cares No-one weeps and mourns my loss No outpouring o

"Crashing the Gate"

Stampeded into the cave my running steps became softly footed breathing hard scared Trample and destroy Was I Upon their back? Riding with the wind swimming with the Sea OH how the haunted hooves of life so gravely stared at me

Im afraid today

I'm afraid today

With Halloween approaching, thought I'd share some things that I'm afraid of, there's plenty more, that's for sure!

Concrete Prison

Concrete Prison

In this prison of concrete and steel, I sometimes wonder if I'm even real. Do I really walk my own way? Or am I bound to do what they say? Murder in the streets, killing on the news. It's a wonder where I learned these views. The mask I wear hi

Monsters

Monsters

Just a little dark poem after being stuck in a traffic jam..

Going through a dark side of my life afraid of whats ahead

Just caught by the dark

Just how it has to be for awhile....

In my head

In my head...

Happy halloween people...

Phantoms

Phantoms

Following a new direction letting these pages lead the way From the beginning of my existence to where I find my final resting place Swallowing a shade of colo

Death My Old Friend

Death My Old Friend

Death my old friend, let me lay down with you. Come around me wrap your arms, to sleep gently soothe me. My life’s been long, I’ve lived it well, no regrets to speak of. I’ve laughed, I’ve cried, there were times my heart was broken. But not one,

The Inner Me

The Inner Me

Instinctively you know What I would like you to do to me How far you can push me

The ship

The ship...

Just a little something...

Hoarder Rant

Hoarder Rant

Taped hoarders and watched it this morning. This poem is based on the woman and her condemned home. They had to wear breathers and hazmat suits to clean up the mess. She went to live with a relative after the show.

Mind

Mind

So who are you in wanton state, arrived too early? perhaps too late?, to herd the clowns and lead them on, into oblivion, till they are gone. The noise of silence is shrill and loud, it breaks you up, not make you proud, arise and take all you

The Wizard

The Wizard...

... cast a mighty spell, To bring a demon strait from hell, Arcane symbols on the floor, Pentagrams on all the doors, Performing rituals of strangeness, Chanting in forgotten language, Hands weaved a cloud of smoke, From out of it the horror

The Night Calling

The Night Calling...

I seem to compose more at night...

we are the ones of the shadows

we are the ones of the shadows

There is not much to say. I feel it says it all.

The Dark Prince

The Dark Prince

Here I lay awoken from my slumber, at rest for a century or more, exiled from my home, banished from my throne, I feel you’re your heartbeat, the sound of your running footsteps because you sense I am near, I can sense your fear and smell your flesh,

Skins

Skins

The skin fits so perfect, exactly my size Still warm and moist and so supple Slowly I pull it on, first the legs Ever so carefully so as not to damage it Up over

Silence

Silence

Silence, utter silence, like none before I can hear my heart beating, thumping Cutting through this unholy silence Can even hear my rapid breathing But what, where, my eyes are wide open There is only blackness, not the slightest glimmer I tr

Why did you do what you did to me when I was a kid

Why did you do what you did to me when I was a kid

Poem is self-explanatory I think but it’s a subject that is always hidden and thus allowed to continue :-(

I finally woke up

I finally woke up

I finally woke up after I almost broke up Like a car racing down the track, To many mirrors and always looking back Picking up speed, warning signs I didn’t heed Then crash, bang, brakes, oh God, oh damn Twisted remains with birds picking at t

The Old Millstone

The Old Millstone

Once an old mill stood near an old covered bridge..and all that remains of the mill is the old millstone that now rests half buried in the streambed...below the falls...under the bridge...down an old dirt road late this fall creates my mood in free verse.

my head in the clouds

my head in the clouds

just random thought

perpetual night

perpetual night

Me pondering lifes meaning looking off into infinity...

Noname1

Noname1

A glow glowing A glow that turns gray Gray as death itself When the glow goes out And when another light A joint that burns creates illusions Want to escape reality The cold, hard reality Drunk and High The cloud of cotton I lie down I am

Darkness Falls

Darkness Falls

For in the turmoil of your soul you feel the loneliness the pain. You feel the emptiness what shall replace it. You try, but still you have an empty whole there. Alone Darkness in an empty room. I feel this every day as if my existenc
