Memoirs of a tear

No comments on “Memoirs of a tear”

As I drink the

bitter bile of melancholy,

the sky moans

and the dark side

visits my heart

with the shriek

of a death scythe

 

Then shall I bury myself

with rigorous will

and be the clay's brethren,

and suffocate happiness

till the breathe of light

becomes extinct,

the clock ticks slowly,

and the graveyard

defies life

 

Now I fall...

bottomless

in this endless

futile brawl with the darkness,

I let it clothe me,

the ears of mercy

are deaf

but still the silent

violin of bliss

plays with a transparence,

vomited by the fog

which convicts my

very sanctity,

and rapes my existence.

Coughing chimney

No comments on “Coughing chimney”

and with words

that do slither

in the minds of unfortune children,

lying fangs are revealed

and the venom of misconception

spat into fantasies

till dreams die

by an involuntary, oral eutanasia

 

Not words of a simoom

not words of a gale

but a chimney that coughs,

because its lungs

are clogged with

the dirt virus coughed

by other chimney

 

and he...or she

coughs, releases the

perceptional smog

into the youthful sky,

till the kids

minds become clouded

with fear

that now becomes

flawless but the

endless repetition of this pollution

 

Then these children,

also cough out discouragement,

apparently, inspiration

must be the quarantine to vaccinate this virus.

Guillotine choir

No comments on “Guillotine choir”

Quite a canon folk,

who have a really

crooked mentality of power,

murder is the muscle,

and their punch

is deception

 

The city swarms

with shadows,

the domain,

a hive of evil,

where the bees

sting like death,

they beat mercy

till it flees from their heart

 

with red-hot defiance

in their eyes,

they are breathing furnace,

talking inferno

that unleash hell

upon a decayed heaven;

peace is an old corpse

buried in the

graveyard of negligence,

long forgotten

by the code of hostility

 

They think their immune,

but the angels weep

but the grim reaper laughs,

as Satan upgrades his pawns

in this grim chess.

Splinter Jacket

No comments on “Splinter Jacket”

O beyond the shattered hills I see,

scattered bones scattered bones of me,

tattered visages, tattered visages of myself

let the world see how I have become an elf.

 

Look at me

I have been blessed with a scarf of boils

the devil laughs with glee

at a broken monument that spoils

 

O beyond the shattered hills I see,

scattered bones scattered bones of me,

tattered visages, tattered visages of myself

let the world see how I have become an elf

 

The total alliteration of sadness

born into residual madness

makes me sip bleakness

the melancholy of this darkness

 

At the penny drought,

my soul begins to pout

and frown and toil,

till hard tears fall to the soil

 

O beyond the shattered hills I see,

scattered bones scattered bones of me,

tattered visages, tattered visages of myself

let the world see how I have become an elf.

Bigfoot's clawprints

No comments on “Bigfoot's clawprints”

The earth tastes suicidal,

we are living in fairy tales,

the mind has manufactured

garments from the air;

and created an eminent

spear fortress with the clouds

 

We have a spine helmet

on our heads,

and visions turn grim

with logty beliefs

of unexpected horror

 

Ignorance is the scaremonger,

telling the tales

that make reality rot

in cadavery

and a malodoury mentality

 

Things unseen,

mirages which have

bribed their way

into existence

by the felony of the eyes

 

Visions commit crime,

as they solicit

our thinking with lies

and fate stamps

an embargo

on open-mindedness.
