What have you done?

Grip me with enticing
Lice metastasizing
Grinding every word
A tooth with every verb

Because action isn’t fastest
Morally elastic
Accepted what you want
Because the truth will leave you blasted

Capping you liquor
Tapping out you’re sicker
With yourself and how you’ve acted
Vomiting all the classes
You took when you were sober
Universal controller
Of the everyday
While everyone's pulled over

Escaping every way
To go, the roads are blocked
By policemen with flashlights
Regular city cops

Making God a light to the poor and drowning victims
Stuck deep inside a growing twisting
Bowels of ever missing
Bodies in the sewers
And death and Bueller
The only day you ever take off you’ll die

Beetles on the floor

Wandering as I have
With my little black shell
Through tiles instead of blocks
Streetlights and clocks

Their journey seems similar to mine
Lost but not lost
Perusing to find
Motiveless divine

Due to the lack of understanding
My path may seem pathless
Perception is controlling
Knowledge will set you free

Over the false slate tile they roam
On the floors of fast food restaurants 
They have no propagation so it seems
Existence is all that holds their seams

What do you know? 
You cannot read their mind
You know not if they have one
We look at them as God looks at us

They're sentient and aware
They must have some goal worth living for
God must think we're all 
Just as beetles on the floor

El sol

I wrote a poem in Spanish,

Cuando me levanto por la mañana,
Voy afuera y como una manzana,
Me gusta ver la oscuridad deja,
cuando el sol llega,
Todo se ablanda por el calor,
y el mundo se baña en color,
Mi disposición cambia tan violentamente,
Debido al mundo girando rápidamente,
Alrededor de esa estrella que calienta mi piel,
Es encantador, y dulce, y siempre tan fiel,
Y cada noche se establece otra vez,
Y otra vez debo esperar por su brillantez

Needs a title thats not so obvious

Haven't written in quite a while, it was nice to have something to write about...
Comment on title ideas please.


Every moment missed
I'm anxious for the kiss
Hold your hand in mine
Kill for truth's design

Gasps of air that leave your lungs
Hope to fill mine up with love
Praying to God I feel your presence
So sweet and soft, yet rough and dangerous

Intellect pressing for answers
Letting light on darkness like dancers
Don't get too lost in the forest we're in
Remember, please keep holding my hand

I'd hate to see a life-giving sun lost
At the end of life you'd know the cost
At the end of the day let my eyes be the ones into which you look
I'll always prove to you love, life and happiness is more important than any crook

Nuanced Ignorance Self-Destructs


Through your eyelashes lie
The eyes that everyday lie
Your inward face contorts
With the evil from your courts

The clear misunderstanding
Has plummeted you to daring
Cons and plans to capture
My flesh in flames, a rapture

To see what you've done you never do
It's like you're diseased with a wintertime flu
It fevers your mind to the point of delusions
You can't understand the depth of intrusion

Break and bend my bones and marrow
Twist and turn my past and morrow
See the sun rise nonetheless
Call your prophets, my worst is your best

Existential Agony

Swirling visions in my mind,
Do much to pass the time,
Listless ennui, green's decline, 

Forever, the world falls apart...

And under its weight we fall asleep, 
The consequence of ill-won peace, 
Western medicine, the world's relief,

Our world's passion has scarred over... 

Stories are told, marvels unfold,
Claiming truth in visions of old, 
Ever-warming earth growing so cold,

Lying love, loved too dearly...

Life will never change, everything's the same,
Always trying and losing the game, 
Looking for fame, dying in shame, 

There is nothing new under the sun...
