Sometimes
sometimes i want to fuck up my life
i want to cuss out my teachers, and cut up my arms
i want to come out as straight
i want to deadname my friends
i want to lie, and cheat, and refuse to eat
sometimes i want to fuck up my life
because if no body likes me,
if im bleeding,
if im dead
then i wont have to get out of bed

Maliciously massive the avarice passive
Its static attractive and matching the action
Its missing the maxim for the cash as you catch 'em
Its minimum matching in patches of passion
And ditching the diction for ass interaction
While kissing and catching the maximal smashes
And mixing the mistress's moon as it waxes
Salaciously slashing the gashes and snatches
Deliciously maxing the packed and the placid
A shame forlorn shaven this shake for the maiden
Unanimous amorous this bullshit is famous
Youre sublime, i'm subprime, now supine fucking aimless

Something something the curtains are blue or whatever but underappreciated media analysis phenomenon is when someone else reads something you wrote and points out the blue curtains that you hadn't even noticed yourself hanging up while you built it. Like fuck they sure are I genuinely hadn't noticed I just flung em up I was concentrating on the carpet. Hey that shade of blue goes nice with the carpet huh. I should get more decor in that colour. Does this make sense to anyone

Pain ticks away each minute's toll,
One candle fades, another ignites its role.
Winds whip and howl, breeding fear's snare,
Thirst grows unquenched, no water to care.
Heart pounds fiercely, in relentless beat,
Beliefs shattered, falsehoods meet defeat.
God's game unfolds on earthly ground,
Screaming silence, a deafening sound.
Within, I seek solace, calmness find,
Tears glisten, eyes to heaven bind.
Head bowed low, knees upon the ground,
In whispered words, peace is found.
Fear not thirst, nor tremble in fright,
Take solace in the dark, seek the light.
For where there's shadow, there's still a way,
Pain's fleeting seconds, soon decay.
Stay grounded, neither boast nor bemoan,
Karma finds its mark, no deed unknown.
Be resilient as the grass, in life's grand play,
Let the mind's melodies, in rhymes, convey.

Sprawling farther than the eyes see, green lush
Fields and sun’s azure skies. Golden discs, two,
Slice through clouds before they curve back around—
falling star from heavens, crashes to Earth.
A painful slash upon the neck, blood drips—
A mourning lover cries.
Where is morning? The sun won’t rise.
What purple o’er his head, a flower blooms
In his stead. Failed healing, he takes last breaths.
There is no cure for Fate dictated death.

gentle fingers pluck my heartstrings like harp strings
an intimate melody moon-soft, night-sweet love’s rhythmic beat

the mask is off
you thought I was hiding
but I was constructing
a person where there was none
I did it myself
fragments of all that I’d seen
stuck together in an unholy scream
don’t look at it too long
you’ll notice the cracks
the little gaps
that I didn’t account for
don’t point them out
they’ll be fixed soon enough
I’ll paste on a new lie like stucco
just don’t pay attention
just take the face value
lest you discover the missing soul
I can’t replace that part
but I can pretend
I’ll act just like I’m real
it’s only a costume
no substance beneath
but a costume looks pretty from afar.

Less is more
I knew a boy once. He liked the colour purple and the smell of rain,  He liked the way I spoke and he liked the way I sang, He liked to strum his guitar while I sat at the end of his bed, He liked our nights spent together, sanity hanging by a thread,
But he liked more.  
Not the kind I am, the kind where lines are defined. Porcelain, pristine, perfect Normal, as he would call it.
He liked more but not the kind I am. Even though he liked my voice, and he liked my purple, The way I listen, the way my eyes sparkled,  I just didn’t understand, Why I was the wrong kind of more. 
But for him I can be less. I can cut and paste, I can put on a prettier face,  For him I would stop swallowing, Or even chewing for that matter, So I can be less. I can slice and trim, I would accept any fate, no matter how grim. I would give away my heart,  And my liver, and my spleen, And the bay window that makes me not pristine, I’ll do away with my wings and my saddlebags, 
And I’ll be less, So he will love me more.

Wishing Rod      🎣
(if you think you’ve caught the rhythm try it out loud it’s fun)
got a pole or maybe stick that made me trip into a whole-ass pit and so i gripped it when i slipped up out the hole and this is just a line, a piece of twine that tied my feet that i can keep in case a string is just the thing i seem to need.
[[deep breath]] Now these are all the screws oh i been screwed a time or two and i’ve been nailed for mistakes that I have made, i failed (true) but the collection i’m inspectin’ is a treasure trove of magic that i grabbed from tragic happenstance, a pleasure that I have it [[breathe]] cause i’ve landed on my toes i’m standing closer to a potion full of life and death and motion yes i guess that it’s an ocean so i open up my pockets for the clock that’s never right [[breath]] i strip it for the gears i’m seeing clear and in the night right beside my frightened fears in the flare from inner light I can make a useful tool out of souvenirs of plight.
[[breathe]]
I tighten up the time ‘n’ tinker think i’ll take a look pull a pin from my skin that i bend into a hook for a mystic fishing rod made of oddness that i master i’m a witch i stitch with laughter watch me craft it from disaster - then i bait it with intention, wade where schools of wishes dwell… swing a thing i’ve made from failure and prepare to cast a spell

Sorta unfinished recent wurdz
Infatuated,
Take me home and keep me lazy
Alone with my thoughts and that's what I fear the most.
Wholesome,
I wanna be.
Back in the darkness of solid green
Grabbed and harnessed, I'm never clean.
I'll sleep in the shadows of the branch,
Cos your arms can't reach me.
Grown in a ready tread pathway so it's dirt I bleed
Off the thorns in your life I feed
Prickled in the skin that's now mine
I've grown into it but now I'm slipping down the hillside
Leaning on grass just to feel fine
No rocks hit on the way down
Your voice was in the wind but it's gone now
With others I stay close,
words, looks and forgotten notes.
Laugh like it's jokes,
But I'm broken,
Sewn seems drawn on with sharpie.

Kiss me, kill me,
Do what you will with me,
I wanna live a life of neverending heresy,
I wanna kill the lie that suffering is liberty,
I wanna go home,
but I'm already there,
Don't wanna throw stones,
Everybody is already scared,
I wanna rend the flesh,
I wanna start fresh,
I wanna die, and live,
And thrive, and give,
All that I have to somebody else.
So gut me, and cut me open,
Let my blood water the flowers,
Just touch me, and love me,
Over and over for hours and hours.
I wanna make something,
I wanna take something and turn it into something else.
I wanna be free, unshackled, unchained,
But my bones and joints creak and crackle,
Again and again and again and again,
I wanna finish something,
I can't even finish this,
I feel like such a dummy,
Broken, hungry, useless.
