Within it all
With the Blood and the Death within and without
I shall stand, never forgeting it and never going within doubt.
With the Tears as they shed, They shall fall but never going down.
Because within it all I shall stand tall within it all.
I shall stand, never forgeting it and never going within doubt.
With the Tears as they shed, They shall fall but never going down.
Because within it all I shall stand tall within it all.

About this poem:
I wrote this poem not that long ago, it probably isn't my best poem I have written. But it has been a while since I have written one. So I hope you all like it.
Kathy Lee Gifford
I saw her on tv
I heard her sing on her album
I heard that she had clothing made
By little girls working for three cents an hour
She met with one of them
She told this girl she did not know
That children were making clothes
With her name on it
Did Cathy Lee lie to this girl?
Did Cathy Lee ever offer to reimburse the money
She stole from these children?
The whole story had my head ringing
Which was worse
Her child explotation
Or her singing
I heard her sing on her album
I heard that she had clothing made
By little girls working for three cents an hour
She met with one of them
She told this girl she did not know
That children were making clothes
With her name on it
Did Cathy Lee lie to this girl?
Did Cathy Lee ever offer to reimburse the money
She stole from these children?
The whole story had my head ringing
Which was worse
Her child explotation
Or her singing

About this poem:
Saw a documentary called The Corporation. The story is dated, the movie came out around 2005. It had clips from one of my heros, Michael Moore's TV Nation. He went to Phillip Morris and had people who had lost their voiceboxes to cancer from smoking cigarettes sing christmas carols.
Night Terror
Oh God!!! This incredible pain
Claws raking across my brain
Ripping it, shredding it
Piece by piece splattering on the walls
And as my vision fades
And the last sound I hear
Is the demonic laughter
Of my tormentor
As I am cut off from this world
Claws raking across my brain
Ripping it, shredding it
Piece by piece splattering on the walls
And as my vision fades
And the last sound I hear
Is the demonic laughter
Of my tormentor
As I am cut off from this world

About this poem:
I am out there ... are you next on my menu ... beware ... it might be you I am coming for
tired girl
you see what you want to see,
never look past to just me.
In a world of half truths you judge but have no proof.
here I stand with no shame a powered girl who wants no fame.
The lonely path of a broken world,
head held high but a shattered girl.
Whispers of a broken past,
tried to paste it together but the love wouldn't last. The wasted path path of a tired girl
I walk the path ahead of me.
don't know yet what it should be.
should i choose love and peace
or the horrors of my families name.
The wasted the path of a tired girl.
Here I stand and make a vow
I claim my life
And all it’s strife.
never look past to just me.
In a world of half truths you judge but have no proof.
here I stand with no shame a powered girl who wants no fame.
The lonely path of a broken world,
head held high but a shattered girl.
Whispers of a broken past,
tried to paste it together but the love wouldn't last. The wasted path path of a tired girl
I walk the path ahead of me.
don't know yet what it should be.
should i choose love and peace
or the horrors of my families name.
The wasted the path of a tired girl.
Here I stand and make a vow
I claim my life
And all it’s strife.

Post CommentThrough Yonder Darkly Wanders
All encompassing rage, consuming me, tearing me apart,
piece by piece devouring me.
Red veil covers my eyes, mist of blood, splatters on the wall,
carpet drenched, pooling at my feet.
Again and again the knife plunges, slicing flesh, down
to the bone, through the organs.
My rage knows no bounds, cutting, slicing, hacking,
bits of skin and flesh flying everywhere.
Through it all, your screams of pain, terror, piercing,
further fueling my frenzied attack.
Six months, six long months you have cheated, not once,
not twice, but repeatedly, over and over.
Threw it in my face, with utter contempt, sneering,
daring me, daring me to do something.
Screams turn to a gurgle, as the knife slashes your throat,
and finally you lay at my feet, one last twitch as life departs.
Slowly my rage abates, the veil retreats, sanity returns,
my mind once again regains equilibrium.
There you still stand, sneering at me, daring me to do something,
awaiting some sort of response.
I shake my head as I walk to the door, "You're not worth it,"
I fling over my shoulder as I leave.

About this poem:
I thought that I would try a different way of writing to how I normally write ... this is not based on any reality and is purely fiction.
The Unholy one and God
The Lord of Flies,
The Unholy one!!!
King of this world, Commander of 1/3 of heaven's army,
The morning star,
Fallen ArchAngel!!!
Beauty unmatch in god's creation,
The greatest composer ever!
SOLOMON no match to his wisdom and knowledge!
Bill gates,steve jobs and Einstein are his pre-kindergarden pupils!!!
Orgies and parties multitudes under the sun!
White his favourite colour,
Red would match his anger!
Nothing would give him more pleasure,
Then to see the HOLY CHRIST fall to his power.
Beware ,those reading this ...
He is out to get you!
A point to proof towards the mighty Creator,
That he WAS right all along,
From Adam to present man,
That we are all born flawed in God's image!
That we Dont deserve to be with God,
That God is WRONG!
But I tell differently..
GOD IS OUR SAVIOUR ,
In Him I believe,
Body,mind and soul,
To our Father,Jesus and Holy Spirit!!!
Amen

Scarred
Just a thought away from suicide
I have one foot in the grave
And though I yearn to live my life
I'll never recover from my mistakes
God may forgive me for my sins
But I can't take that chance
Because I've done too much, thus far
And my mind's dizzy from the devils dance
My sins weigh heavy on my heart
And my life's as scarred as my wrists
With this knife in my hand, I cut one more time
To watch the blood flow, I couldn't resist
This world is fading, it is getting dark
And my eyes are beginning to close
Could I have ever made something of myself
But now it's too late and I'll never know
I have one foot in the grave
And though I yearn to live my life
I'll never recover from my mistakes
God may forgive me for my sins
But I can't take that chance
Because I've done too much, thus far
And my mind's dizzy from the devils dance
My sins weigh heavy on my heart
And my life's as scarred as my wrists
With this knife in my hand, I cut one more time
To watch the blood flow, I couldn't resist
This world is fading, it is getting dark
And my eyes are beginning to close
Could I have ever made something of myself
But now it's too late and I'll never know

Eternity.
Comforting heat , slowly wrapping around me like a cremation furnace.
I will bring you eternity.
A thick screen of grey and black smoke drifts its way into the air, watching the
burning pile it was born from.
Death is immanent.
I creep to the front of my stage, directly to the left of her, ignoring siren like screams of pain.
I feel powerful.
Charred hands beg silently for mercy, none is found.
Eluding the restraints, clots of skin drip steadily from its prison.
I’ve been seduced by my morbid thoughts. Actions no longer need reasoning.
Adrenaline forced into my veins , carry intense, uncontrollable, urges for more satisfaction.
Quietly I wait , standing, heart feeling explosive. My naked mind doesn’t think , only brands malevolent images into my eyes.
Laying there face down, no longer struggling for release.
At last, the torture was unbearable. Her soul departs forever.
Fire still raging, dances in a twisted celebration.
Regrets are extinct as I hesitantly escape this burning tomb.
I gave you eternity.

About this poem:
I was challenged to write something that would plant an image. I tried my best and here it is.The Shadow You Are
In the depths of your darkness, you see me as hate
But it's the hatred that you have not faced up to date
How do you rate all the anger you feel
When times do get better, you see it's not real
You steal my life force with the greed of a vulture
Then blame it on being the fault of your culture
Who taught you that you must be what others say
You hide in the night, and still hide in the day
Your venom is toxic and burns to the core
You eat negativity and still you crave more
A whore for your master who tells you you're free
Blind to the evils you claim not to see
Swallow your poisons and suffer alone
Your hate will consume you, right down to the bone
I laugh at your masks and costumes you wear
For deep in your shadow, I know you don't care
Your smile is a farce, made of plastic at best
Your heart is a shark that never does rest
What a mess you've become with your whiny complaints
Bound in your flesh by your mental restraints
I push you away, as I loath your disguise
For I have no time for your disgusting lies
But it's the hatred that you have not faced up to date
How do you rate all the anger you feel
When times do get better, you see it's not real
You steal my life force with the greed of a vulture
Then blame it on being the fault of your culture
Who taught you that you must be what others say
You hide in the night, and still hide in the day
Your venom is toxic and burns to the core
You eat negativity and still you crave more
A whore for your master who tells you you're free
Blind to the evils you claim not to see
Swallow your poisons and suffer alone
Your hate will consume you, right down to the bone
I laugh at your masks and costumes you wear
For deep in your shadow, I know you don't care
Your smile is a farce, made of plastic at best
Your heart is a shark that never does rest
What a mess you've become with your whiny complaints
Bound in your flesh by your mental restraints
I push you away, as I loath your disguise
For I have no time for your disgusting lies

About this poem:
Wednesday, 18 March 18 2009 - A dark poem motivated by all those people who look at me and see something that they don't like about themselves.
The Unmarked #10
No window,
no name
nor stamp.
Commonplace, this bleached white fiber,
with no design and unglued.
Unglued?!
Index finger and thumb grasp
suspect flap-
Blood drips ... its slit
craves man-flesh,
satiates in curses
and obscenities.
But, but, BUT,
all it is,
is an empty ...
envelope,
Right?!
no name
nor stamp.
