isolation
-
Silence lost in a sea of noise, crumbling self loathing, wanting to avoid, we segregate and subdue ourselves, we enslave, we eschew, imagination regulated to false hopes, as the eyes tighten on their prize, lies upon lies, masks over masks, a country at war with itself, tired eyes sewn shut, I want to, but I…

they told me to prepare for the worst, when the worst had already been, but I pondered and prevailed in the face of the absurd, migrated my own selfish ways, lined the box with my lies, created a vision of who I was, hidden in the eyes of who hid inside, it never worried those…
-
A pale comparison, words not said, incomplete stories untold, flooded with television images, wire images granted life, computer code written across the glass, mathematical equations left lost in the sum of one, I strive for a perfection, I live midstream, not swimming, not much of anything, oversaturated eyeliner, pocket sized edition given away, i saw…
-
whispering in the darkness is a voice that’s not mine, splashing in the blueness of a sea within my mind, a voice unlike an angel singing of divinity, thumping beats from the heart forces colourless liquid throughout me, a deception in my eyes, truth within my lies, for I am a silent victim, and in…
-
I called a moment, a fragrance simmers in the light, want waited without intent, there comes a safe way, we are trying to be more, we recant and restrict, vocal cries geared inside a driving force, leather and lace, weathered eyes, pretty pulses slowing down, wasted, renewed, I said words without hope, I tried for…
-
I whisper to then inner me with wishes of immortality, Kneeling on knees not worn, Praying to gods with limited belief, Swept up in anarchy, Washed out to the sea by waves of nausea, I beg to thee, I cry to the very core of me, All this fear coated in pain, Loathing the other…
-
fascinate the inner workings of a maniac in style over substance, pushed inside the ceramic dish not served but over strained, whiskey drinks, futile things, a harboured extension of the flaccid tool we dare not name, forged alliances that could never be, hand shakes, cold embraces, toxic waste drank without care or quandary, we owned…
-
A disjointed fire sale, Terminal disease, Thoughtless whispers, Heralded misogynistic portfolios, Silently stagnant, A window for a face, Tread upon the stone covered moss, Forgotten salutations, Strive to be, A sea, A seed, Hollowed imaginations, A reflection not me..
-
Sickly sweat dripping from within, A bitter machine without remorse, Clandestine appendages lost to mistakes, We pushed through worse, Divergent paths reconnecting, Softly was the sharpness of the blade used to slice away the flesh that was once mine, You call yourself something more than what I see, But wanting has changed the soul in…
-
worshipped from a further void, pre-loved without remorse, haggard eyes sewn shut, words spoken a moment late, languished in the ever lost, persistent against a time that is long gone, wisdom given, puzzles solved, a futile argument won by the losing side, a wisp of smoke, forgiveness forgotten, a hate seeded softly, growth, departure, rudimentary…
-
Mesmerised but not finalised,A focus showed but not centred,I called the name that was solidified but not understood,We called,Yet you didn’t want,A plethora of infinite possibilities lost in the clasp of what is,We called,But you don’t come,Significant changes lost on the path of one,Call me,See me,Be what I want but not be,A wisdom,An ego,Please see…
-
fabled, castrated and alone, a function no longer connected, my alter broken as I start the fire, changes coming through incessant mumbling, my sweetest straw of rawness, linguistic preservation lost in a rapid moment, fleeting lost words from the song that’s sung, holding me close, yet not within, I know your right, when you said…
-
who I am and was is lost inside this worm ridden carcass, decaying flesh lathered over brittle bones, I crave to be, I want to be free, but a cursed cross holds me under, it’s message flippant in its words, my measure less than it was before, crippled intent, hate a word soiled in regrets,…
-
woven in the skin beneath my flesh, is the words written for those that can see, sewn into the underneath are rhymes destined to be, I wrote a sonnet in summer, I burnt it to keep warm in the cold, it birthed itself in my nightmares, flimsy recognitions, windows in place of mirrors, I kept…
-
we made the devil do our deeds, he was not intimidated, for he was not a he, a she, a thing, a them, or a they, he had no orientation, but he had one we could see, hidden in simplicity, I gave the world a moment, I showed the sun how to shine, we saw,…
-
forgiven fantasies allow one to be, a wish list, hidden in the decay, I wanted to know, to see, flesh underneath the sea of red, who was I below, a wanting, a need to be free, enclosed lies threatening to break, a miracle minor, lasting impressions, phobias, deceptive devices, struggling to see, a wardrobe malfunction,…
-
I saw a man who was not me, his eyes were weary, his smile was long, a wisp of hair ran across his head, his life seemed empty, for he was dead, but he called my name, this decaying man, he held a mirror that gave no reflection, he held a mirror that was cracked,…
-
we missed the moment when the world was bright, we hid in the darkness, we bathed in its night, a fairy-tale story filled with deception, weathered winters, scorching sun, a missing plot line, a screw lose and lost, we call the simple things, we pray for the light, but a day late, a foot short,…
-
a manic movement, justified underneath, flooded, why am I, stuck from the inside, twisted intent, weathered pain unverified, hallowed words, sober sorrow, there was a moment, I recalled the wisdom for it was collected in preparation, For there was a day to come, etched in a wayward way, but in the end its just another…
-
a credence given fly, alone doesn’t seem the same, a voodoo that isn’t me, something that couldn’t be, windows without doors, houses without floors, aside, inside, it stood beside me, while I waited, or did I, maybe I was lost, maybe I wasn’t anything, degrade me, be me, I am nothing, yet you be, while…
