Mr. Surgeon Man
See what you can see
But all you'll find
Is a chimney
Here is the fire
That gives me the anger I lack
Here is the smoke
That muffles my desperate calls
Here is the brick
With which I bulid walls
Here is the soot
That has made my mind so black
Mr. Surgeon Man can you see
That bit of light?
That's what might

freewill is an illusion
and chance a delusion
as long as im
alive

Little sister
Take my hand
And once your tears dry
We'll dive
Under the sea
We'll swim with the fishes
Away from
The never-done dishes
And now
On the count of three
Let your breath bubble
And
We'll be free

My mindI used to thinkMy mind1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
of my mind
late at night
imagine the electric impulses
zooming around
1.65 times as fast
as the national average
And sometimes
i swear
i can feel them
flinging their invisible bodies
against my skull
trying to
break free
Brine Shrimpi have brine shrimpBrine Shrimp1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
in a tupperware on my desk
from a science project
snake-like
slithering and sliding
in the murky water
the package said
"Life expectancy: 3-10 days"
It's been 3 months
I have no idea
how they're still here
never feed them
never change the water
nothing
and yet
they're still alive
FlamepowerSometimesFlamepower1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
when i wake from a terror
you appear next to me
and tendrils of your flamepower
reach around my quivering body
pulling me close
into the heart of your warmth
drying my tears with kisses
stopping my tremors
and as soon as i start slipping
back into sleep
you disappear
ColorsPink is the color that is hateful to me,Colors1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
And green is the color of envy.
Yellow is the color of the sun,
And white is the color of someone not known to anyone.
Red is the color of a scraped knee,
And blue is the color of the sea.
Orange is the color of a warm summer day,
And the moon keeps all of these beautiful colors at bay.

My hips rockMy hips rockMy hips rock1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
Side to side
Side to side
Music pouring out if the speakers
Blinds me
As my hands run
Up and down
Up and down
My body
Audacious
My eyes
Seduce
My invisible audience
My bra
Loosens
And I tear it off
As I gyrate
Down to the floor
Every nerve alert
Muscles humming
With sexuality
Back arches
Feet flex
Body roll up
With a final spin
The song ends
And I
Collapse

Before I'm back on my feet
And running from you
I leave no footsteps
No trace

Is a part of me.
It's a part of you too,
whether you like it or not
It's true.
I learned to own it
Rejoice in it
Love it.
Which is why I'm really
So much happier than you.

head's we dance
and you took my hand
with an apologetic smile

and you were so agile
How could I know

the gun nuzzled
against my back

before everything went to black
I accepted the chance
and we danced
