I can’t feel my emptinessDays have bleed into one block of cheeseMy life stinks like the blue around meThere is no way to rip it apartThe solid rock has done its jobNobody knows what might happenI can’t hear the whispersThe stars are bright tonightBright as car headlights on these streetsThis messiness belongs to usEveryone is…

My appetite is as high as the stars.I am hungry today.The big dipper is my guide.This is a full-blown empty stomach.All this growling and groaning must be heard.I am hungrier than ever before.My mouth is certain.You are not what I crave.This is not a luxury to fantasize.The weekend if not my enemy.I have to see…

As a one-day explorer as those before me that didn’t perishafter a few months of toiling the soil and praying for sunshine.They closed their eyes and dreamt of better days ahead.The frigid air sliced through my clothes because I didn’t think properly that morning. I haven’t been in this kind of weatherfor a while and…

As I stand under the moon, I imagine it pulsing, out and in, full of life, a kind of life I can’t see but knows deep inside me that it is there, out and in. It has to be there because alien life can’t be any other way than what is in my mind from…

When the chill comes over me, I know I’m not alone.I see you coming behind me and catching me when I want to fall.Thank you for being there for me tonight.It’s not every night when I feel safe around you.The nights where you are missing in action, I wonder where you are.If you are out…

This is a bumpy ride.I expect nothing else.This is how life moves.The worst.I strap on my seatbelt.Tilt my head back.Close my tired eyes.I am in pain.The dread.My teeth ache.The person next to me sleeps.I am glad.No one needs to know.My body weakens.The future is in the back.The purity.I touch my face.It is cold.I expect more.This…

The big screen on the wall shows a different time.Now is the not the right time to get all scared.The stage you’re standing is the big league.Stick that gum or chew into your mouth.Don’t swallow either one because it will make you sick.Open your mouth and start making sense with your words.The weak light in…

Excuse me!Excuse me!Will you help me lower down the body into the ground? This body doesn’t serve any purpose anymore.You are the last person that might help me.No, you won’t help me.You see me as a nuisance.A stupid person with a mouth and teeth.Did I make you uncomfortable by asking for help?I forgot you think…

As I sit here, I feel pain on the sides and below.As I touch my head, I feel pain on the topAs I stand, I feel pain in the middle and below.As I twist my shoulder, I feel pain on the right.As I bend my body, I feel a sharp pain.As I bend further, I…

Time often does not heal the wounded heart.Our hearts have so been wounded many times over.The fear of what I cannot stop bleeding.The puddle grows to a massive size within me.I am not sure how to contain this mess.Neither those around me can either.Countless hours I have fought against temptation. A flight of stairs turns…

I want to say a word moreAnd will let my mind continue on this thought trainI will open my car doorSit on the uncomfortable driver seat cushionMy mouth will enjoy the taste of iced teaMy teeth will crunch on tiny ice cubesI will drive by garbage trucks full of wasteRotten food will fill my noseI…

rapid deterioration comes to us allhave no fear, have no regretsstand mighty tall.we only live once if we are goodand the stars and moon alignas they should.lengthy stretches of highway behindwith tire marks for miles heavily enshrined.we have admiration for our drinksgulp them all downas we think.save us from ourselves to the endhave faith, have…
