Feeding Time
A pill to focus
Some pills to be thin
A pill for appetite
Pills to the brim
Ready your cameras
The meal has arrived
A pill as the main course
Some pills on the side
A pill to wake up
A few for your slumber
This pill for pain
Might put you under
A pill to connect
A pill to destroy
A pill to accept
A pill to annoy
Do you like this poem?!?.......
A p...

Eviction Notice
It's not that I don't like to admit
That I still think of you once in a while
The bittersweet memories cause shift
In winds that guarantee exile
I wish I could speak to you
Ask you how you have been
It's not as if you've moved away
And I may still see you again
The reason is my eviction notice
For you to vacate my mind
Even though I still think of you
Mostly all ...

To Whom it Should Concern
She sits silent in the tacky room.
The television volume loud enough to rumble windows, the flickering light casts eerie shadows dancing around the room. She doesn't notice.
Room 304 is her home now. Not many visitors, and when they do arrive for a visit, it isn't a lengthy stay and they don't say much. Sometimes, not speaking at all. Too busy. She doesn't notice.
She wasn't always brittle....

Breath of Life
My eyes open, I'm awake. The soft unpleasant glow of light terrifies me. Is it that time?
I can't discern any shapes in the room. I cough, the air is filled with the aroma of stale beer and cigarettes.
I roll over and rip the sheets over my head, in attempt to defy time. I cannot bring myself to look at the clock, I am too depressed to wake up, and too driven to die.
I just need those s...

Alien
I am too sensitive for this insensitive world. I am too consistent for this inconsistency.
I wish for peace in this absolute chaos.
I wish for peace, love and happiness in this age of grandiose debauchery, lacking love or feelings.
We are lacking ideas of how to simply communicate as humans.
We are devolving into rodents, that must feed and fuck and then hibernate.
I am too alien for ...

What Do I Care?
One step forward, 365 steps back.
The optimist in my excited, sad, sloshy brain. I care.
I poison myself with thoughts of a better way. I cling to potential, like a child clinging to thoughts of what could be, what they could be.
One slow step forward, 365 stumbling steps back. I still poison myself with this thought that nothing bad can happen to me. Yet, things seem dark and unfair. I car...

Just Go
Take the leap and embrace the fall. We all fall. From the moment we learn to walk, we fall, inevitably. however, we have the loving cushion and subsequent embrace from our parents to shield us.
You're doing good.
Take a chance and embrace the fall, or perhaps, enjoy the fruits of your success, efforts, and the learning mechanism.
You're doing great.
Don't be scared, don't be bolted d...
