A myriad of thoughts



grass jutting
head butting
the dead
lie in bastions
abutting
fortifications
of the living
whilst angels
sing of blasphemy
and the heavens cry bile
mans race
to contaminate
space
look closely
the esoteric
genetics
unseen
in human DNA
confound
look back
behind
up towards
an odyssey
the collapse of a star
infinite and
beyond reach
obsolete
the existence
it once existed
thought extinct
human iris
cloned galaxies
clues to origins
erstwhile taboo
yet
twelve thousand dollars
shat
upon a womans chest
in jest
unjust while the
innocent hunger
pangs of the just
the meek emanates truth
and weeps degradation
upon the masses
bathing in it's delight
soothing of it's ecstasy
governments
capitulate peace their
pockets weighted of gold
precipitates hate
hate of me
hate
of you
entangles the psych
towards
the precipice of war
bodies
upon
bodies
buried in forgotten pits
womens wails
screams of banshees
at the sight of death
revenge
more death
consoling
conspiring
conjuring
retribution
rebellion
conflict
bloodshed
human suffering
suffers conglomerate
occupation
destruction
reconstruction
reconstructed thought
conformed
into neo-society
a fucking blight
upon humanity

I am a moody anti-social introvert. Meaning: I Trust No One. My best friend is myself. My companion ~ my dog. I write because I must. It is my life line. My Beacon in a world cloaked in darkness, steadfast upon destruction, blinded by their own selfish needs...I write because, I must, to maintain my sanity in an otherwise insane world. I might not be the smartest apple to fall from the tree but believe me the resonance of my impact resoundingly reverberates the tree, stirring emotions and messaging egos in quiet retribution. Welcome to my humble sanctum more…
