Cast a net on my emotions oh glorious one Help me catch these feelings that now overwhelm me I am drowning in a river of my own demise Setting aside all that I know to be the truth; your word Only to erect these false monuments of ideals that do not have foundation in the […]

Why So Dramatic
My nights are short while my days are long and the reality of it all gagged by nothing more than a dream and hope that it will all pay off in the end. I refuse to receive any credit from the lenders for they are a Shylock to my story playing the principal antagonist. They stand […]
I Sin Twenty Times
A man with Quintessential attributes is man society dictates as being dramatic, for such a man hate is the accepted emotion expressed whenever he is to be received. “They” tear at him, doing their utmost best to peel him layer by layer to prove him a fraud. Waking up to a world where this man […]

Receipts
6th of April 95, family in ward one is ecstatic Voices raised in praise to the almighty Phone call made by father says, Daughter, your brother has finally arrived. Mid deep in conversation describing smile of his son To the soprano in his daughters voice Interrupted by the words dangling half hazardly on On the […]
Capital “D” migraine
The stress of religion The marks left by the beast are evident The position of power The playing of god by man The mind of a sinner The role of sin in humanity The stance taken by the wicked The plans of evil The milk is from the snake The sap is taken from the […]
