Filled to the brim, lights flutter dim, mind overload. Thought process
broke, nothing left to choke, actions misery bode.

Random occurances of poetic moments

I don't remember writing these. However, I know they're mine. Go
figure. I feel like I should copyright some of this stuff.

Music turned up loud
Drowning out the sound
Of this bleeding heart beating

You're untouchable unfathomable unknown to me
But for some reason I can't keep my bright eyes off you.

My thoughts are not my own

My confidence isn't what it used to be.
What's happened to me?
When all I can see,
are the mistakes I've made,
the lights that fade,
the debt not yet paid.
I want to see that light,
shining so bright,
during the darkest of night.
But that's not what I see.

Sign of the Zodiac

Do you believe in the Signs of the Zodiac?
Haven't you found that the systems for
Planning always fall?

Can you avoid what gave Daddy his heart attack?
Have you tried everything, anything
All to no avail?

I know what you need.
This will really work.
In ancient times, if you were sick
They make you bleed.
Oh, honey I know it hurts.

Look all around you and notice you're not alone.
We want to give you the courage to
Go a different way.
Think of the love and attention we all have shown.
What did we do when we heard, well, we
All came right away.

I know what you need.
This will really work.
In ancient times, if you were sick
They make you bleed.
Oh, honey I know it hurts.

Eh. A little poem, a little message.

Everything's a lie,
Won't see eye to eye.
Believe what they tell you,
There's nothing they won't do.
Try to take me,
You'll never break me.
But try not to burn,
When it's your turn.

They'll pick you apart,
Starting with your heart.
Tear into little pieces,
The pain never ceases.
Will you crack and fail?

Trenchmouth - Rasputina

Yeah, he was a big landowner.
He was a bad mouthbreather.
But you can see his station wagon stand alone.
Woulda, coulda, we should have known.

He was a failed cropduster.
I am his little sister.
He was a whistleblower for the F.D.A.
Maybe was them sent him away.
He was a football player.
He didn't have a lot to say.

That guy's a lousy actor.
He was a hard-core cracker.
He wore a trenchcoat and he waved that Dixie flag.
But he's my brother, so I brag.
Don't be no dark naysayer.
So they all said he was a fag.

He had a really big TrenchMouth
When we were living way down South.
He had a really big TrenchMouth.

He had a really big TrenchMouth
When we were living way down South.
He had a really big TrenchMouth.

It's on the edge of nowhere.
No way for them to go there.
I know I'm not much help, but here is where I'll stay.
I'm hoping they'll find him some day.
I should put up some flyers.
Can you think of another way?

He had a really big TrenchMouth
When we were living way down South.
Then he up and disappeared.
He just left his car up here.

He had a really big TrenchMouth
When we were living way down South.
He had a really big TrenchMouth.

Nobody seems to know why he
Would disappear just leaving me here.
On a dirty hill for all time
Me and the pine tree that I stand behind.

He had a really big TrenchMouth
When we were living way down South.
He had a really big TrenchMouth. 

Because typing is easier than writing

Often times, I scare myself with the poems I write. This is one of
those poems I discovered in one of books. I barely remember writing
it, but I know it's mine.

In the Dark
In the dark, you'll find the hurt and pain,
The watchers of life standing in the rain,
They watch the world spin, taking in it all,
All they've done, what they did, to let themselves fall.
As they did before & the ones before them,
Passed through generations like a heritage gem.
Sorrow fills their hearts, inside and out.
No fear, no hope, little but doubt.

In the dark you'll find an audience ready to view,
The coming end of the world and you.
They stand aside to rest and wait,
For the day you join their silence and hate.
Some want to know you, want to be freed,
But you turn your heads, out of shame and greed.
Won't help us, won't touch us, won't even look,
But you read about us in your paper or book.
Won't talk to us, feed us, not one little bit,
Thinking we're nothing, no mind, no wit.

We were you once, when our lives were okay.
We had family & friends, enough food & pay.
But look what's happened, now it's all done and said.
The tears are dried, no more bloodshed.
You wouldn't help us, now only few live.
We begged & pleaded, nothing to give.
Well I can't wait to see you here with the few of us left,
Relying on garbage, donations, and theft.
Can't wait to see how much you'll cry,
When we take our time to enjoy watching you die.

In the dark is where I am, where I'll stay,
To live my life out...what's left, anyway.

Robin's Jar

Once we found a robin
In our backyard
It was already dead
But we were so sure
That things weren't gone too far
So we prayed to God above
That He'd bring it back to us
And we put it in a jar
And waited, and waited
But mama made us bury it
Mama made us bury it
In the backyard
I wished to be just like my best friend
She was the brightest star in the room
Yeah but we didn't know what we had
With the world pressing in
On our backyard
She fell in backwards
She fell in backwards
With the world pressing in
On our backyard
She fell in backwards
We prayed to God above
That He'd bring her back to us
So we put her in a box
We put her in a box
And waited
For something to happen
But nothing happened
But mama made me bury her
Mama made me bury her
Mama made me bury her in the backyard
