life without

`
without a red virus warning
a bleeding wound inside the heart
a promise rotting inside old memory
a freedom struggling to be defined
without a morning dawning sad song
a day in the commerce of skin and bone
a jungle swallowing each footfall
without a crowd running amuck
a litany in loud scream song
a disease of the feral kind
a relapse into the foetal blinds
without a few sores in the mouth
a partial deafness of the soul
a ripped crease in the fabric of fate
a little thendral in the music of rages
a crowd never left behind
an answering machine at the tone
without the beat of a heart nearby
what's a hand
without a handicap or thousand
what a bore

of plagiarism and other vices

`
mind rape mistake machination mirage
but the lights on so imperfect a form
how can they not steal shadow
life is holding a breath
paying a compliment so
burning a hate so
pledging a debt so taxing
a nice fat percent age
invading a private boudoir
rape has so many names
some have only rape to give
so peace out
call it an act of faith

temptation

`
perhaps the mark of the beast
the bloodlines on the hide
are touched with petty weals
with mountains moved in dark peril
as rabbits moved in warrens inside
perhaps you must scrape off your skin
so you may feel as injured, as injuring
carry a torch a
grudge into a broken wind
live or die what lies within
sabotage the scornful equilibrium
the teacup née the devastation
wouldn't you rather live without
given a choice the beast won't win
