The Bastard Again

fucker, heathen, sinner
loser, bastard, winner
floating on wings made of luck
how can you not give a fuck?

did the world not bleed enough for you
did the blood not quench your fucking thirst
when the beeline formed to drink the blood of earth
with bloated belly, you were the bloody first

do your eyes still bleed tears or blood
does your mouth taste of coppery mud
does your hunger not fuck up your soul
and still you keep filling that hole

your face is now a bloody mess
for which sins now will you confess
now that things go from bad to worst
will your rotten core not burst?

Merry Christmas!

eat the blood

a shit eating grin
a scream 
a tongue 
snaking out
spilling poison words
venomous anonymous
what is real anymore
who murdered truth, justice, love
and other such afflictions
who will deny the answers
when the questions seems to change
transform with the seconds
break up and rearrange
till the broken finger is pointing back 
at you
bone stubs pierce the skin like pine needles
falling down in the endless snow
that covers up the sins that we don't know
in this frozen wasteland
we hurt each other
we bleed each other
we hate each other
we need each other
till my blood is in your mouth
and my mouth is filled with taste of copper
you look at me and smile
with blood in your teeth

nightmares about teeth

Angel Wings

teeth turned to embers
tongue turned to ash
thoughts turned to smoke
heart is an empty gash
the monster of flames
woke up sans a brain 
only the command module chittering
with orders obscene
to go find an angel
bring her to this scene
bathed in a beatific light
unaware of the upcoming plight
till the board is ready for her to rest
till her strength will be put to test
the hammer and nail
not ready to fail
toss, turn, flail
but the iron sparks down
whimpering on the board bleeding
eating fire, drinking smoke, pleading
till only a skull remains in the blazing heat
grinning it denies defeat

---
it never gets better, it only gers worse.

still alive

through the fire
through the flames
through the trials
through the games
still standing 
suffering cracks
blue and black
with understanding
crowbarred vision
forced to see
all the things
that could be
but never were
for want of 
one ingredient 
or ten
then the drums start to beat
a lonesome dirge
a howl 
a summon
gravel crunching 
under an arched foot
a gun shot
a whisper
a prayer
a promise from a fool
still alive
