Fanged Kisses


FANGED KISSES
-poetry-

Autopsy

Death – a science project
Frogs on a cold table
The life - a new born chaos
Tornado of wreckage 
Spinning across a blistering desert
Of the land of the lost
Are you the boss?
If not, your loss
My dreadful words to the world I toss
I paint inside
Something you’ll never find
In autopsy
And I sculpt outside
Something you’ll never believe
Believe in me
And my self-autopsy
I can’t hide
So I dig down inside
Up to my knees I find
…Myself
And I dig with a shovel called my life
The dirt, mud, and soil coat it so I see no light
Open me
Free me
But respect me
And my self-autopsy 
Everybody has that someone else inside
That always has to surface when there’s nothing left to hide
And I will find mine

Will find me
In autopsy


Little Johnny

Now welcome to the house where little Johnny lives
To his family, a bullet, he gives
Said they never listened to him as they put him in the car
Towns people never thought it would go this far
Although they showed no affection
They should have paid attention
Attention to this young child who was lost within his head
Johnny’s in a rage
In anger he walks up the stairs
Without a care
He sees his siblings sleep
They never make a peep
The gun shot off so quickly
No time to think
As he watches his parents fade from life
Could he say goodnight?
Doings like that are never right
But now he is both alone and not, in a way
There he sits in an empty cell by himself
Yet the memory he’s made won’t go away
Johnny’s in a rage


Pests

What do you think about life?
Tell me, is this a joke?
How much longer will I ride
Before I choke?
What’s my problem?
They are all my problem
And I will
I will solve them
It’s them I kill
No more
Will you neglect me
All the times you put me on the outside
Will not be forgotten
But while your comments annoy and linger
Like a cockroach spree
I’ve got my insecticide 
No more pests


Reaper Creeper

I’m the Reaper
Creeper
Coming to get you whenever I can
My hate discriminates more than your insane demands
Could my faith terminate society as a normal man?
Aliens bark at the moon, praying for home
Let me leave your trash planet and I’ll leave you alone
Come on outside the zone
Trademark to live, trademark to cry
Programmed to give, programmed to die
No choice but for you to be my slave
You’re human by trade
Only human by trade
Anyway the hot wind blows
Deadly inferno
Missing persons come and go
But the imprint stays
And remains the same
The corpse shell rots away
Soothing the blooming death
The maggots eat your breath
I am the Reaper


The Wedding Night

Old wedding dress, pale skin
Relieve the stress
I’ll say it again
No need to ask about preferences
As long as the rigor mortis kicks in
I don’t know why
But when I’m with her I feel so alive
A wife to die for, I’d do it again in a heartbeat
Love of my life, believe me
Well spoken - true
She’d die for me
I don’t know why
But when I’m with her I feel so alive
And through all this coldness
Love at first sight
As soon as I raised her eye-lids
Stiffness runs through both of us
So in marriage we kept it in trust
The lust
The human body doesn’t rust
It tenses and clots
It’s best when they start to rot
It’s ripe
I don’t know why
When I’m with her I feel so alive


Winding Down

I cannot sleep with the light shining through
And all the noise coming from you
Never talk to me
You’ve got nothing to say
Let me sleep
This can’t be a dream
With all your promises
Everything seems so far from sleep
Never talk to me
You’ve got nothing to say
Never have, never will
Let me sleep
Don’t make a peep
Shut up
Don’t make a sound
Your voice slows me down
And I’m winding down


The Petals of Fear

Evil flower children
Eat my soul
Take with them
Never whole
Wicked flower people
Deal with what hand I behold
Tonight’s stolen
Never whole
And I’m sold


The Sandman’s Going to Hear From Me

I can’t hold on
Life is too strong
I try to stay awake
But it’s pulling me away
Tends to be a nightmare
I don’t want to sleep
But why should you care?
The sandman’s going to hear from me
A bad dream
Your jealousy haunts you
And your desire taunts you
Wants and needs play with you
A bad dream
Somebody lied to you
The same way they always do
Another time, anywhere but the past
But you can’t ask for another you
And you run to the end of the hallway
You run until your legs give away
You run until you hit the quicksand
And you wake
A bad dream
The sandman’s going to hear from me
Another bad dream
Of watching the fall of my family
Another bad dream
Of watching a shot taken at me
Then I wake up to find
It’s all in my mind
Sleep - you keep me so tied down
Forced to witness the image and sound
Projected this all on the cranium’s wall
Another bad dream
Of seeing me blind
Another bad dream
Of guiding me while I’m dying
The sandman’s going to hear from me
Cut myself to wake up but no blood
Only air and a picture of society
Another dream through bleeding
Another dream to see
Oh yes, the sandman will hear from me


War Paint

Put your life on the line
Put your wants and needs behind
Look me dead in the eyes
Ask yourself who’s gonna die
Fists up, stand together, stand alone
Let’s go
Flesh and bone
I’ve got my war paint on
Brace yourself
Knuckles white
That’s right
Step up to the fight
Put your kickers on
Get the show going
Blood’s on fire, feels great
Keep it flowing
Fists up, stand together, stand alone
Let’s go
Flesh and bone
I’ve got my war paint on


The Thick

Uncivil tongues unleashed
Death, destruction
Dead, malfunction
Death, incineration
Dead, cremation
Death, cerebral
Dead, physical
Death, emotional
Dead, conceivable
Why?
Why can’t you see?
Can’t you believe?
Why can you see without having to open your eyes?
Can’t you believe it’s all the same in your mind?
See me
Believe me
Liberty, liberty
Yeah, right
No more liberty
Walking through the field of bodies
That cold stench of corpse
Condemned hallways
Flaming lobbies
Found the war’s core
Found reality in a war zone
Found the front line at home
Reaching out I touch the piles
Run my fingers through the dead air
The feel, how vile
Victims’ flesh - rare
I find the patriotism rather obese
Yet nothing makes up for the deceased
Bury me
The soil’s filling my lungs
Hearing the distant chatter of flapping gums
All spawned by political tongues
Uncivil tongues unleashed


The Hollow

Dear mother
I’m sorry
Sorry I didn’t call today
I’m just busy with the life you gave to me
Dear all
Thanks for pretending
I love you all
Hate you all
Depending
Doesn’t matter now
We’re all disbanding
Why does it hurt so bad?
I guess we’ll never know
No more pain
No more shame
A day without all the rain
Would be great
In my home
My home
It’s where I’ll be
As a whole
Why does it hurt so bad?
I guess we’ll never know
I guess it’s all in what we show
…And we’ll never know
Now we’ve found time to write about our lives
It’s what no one knew that we start to define
We’ve been faking our happiness
Just so we don’t have to show our loneliness 
Look inside and find hearts of nothingness 
So they follow 
Inside the hollow
Thirst striving
We’re hungry
Don’t know why we’re so angry
Like a plaguing disease
Can’t shake it
Can’t ignore it
It creeps up on you and me
So loudly
So they follow
Inside the hollow
Mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers
We tried to show you the real us
You just didn’t want to believe us
But we forgive you all
The writing’s on the wall
So glad you follow
Welcome to the hollow


Salvation, Salvation

Day in, day out
I block it out
But the bad in my life won’t go away
Until I see your light of day
Why?
Why do I deal with such hateful people?
I pray and I pray
That the evil in my life will go away
And I pray the trouble will let me be
I pray
Night in, night out
I sit and pout
About my unsatisfied life
But the truth is I live better than some of you
So why inside am I so hateful?
Is it because all I’ve had of love is a handful?
So I pray and I pray
The conflict will drift away
And I pray the bad will leave me be inside
So I’ll continue to pray
Until I see your light of day
Save me
You’re the only one that knows what I need
Help me
You’re the only one that I need
So take me
Something’s in this freedom
No one knows what I’m looking for
Something’s in this kingdom
No one knows what I’m wanting more
Take me up with you
I don’t need this
Surpassed it
I passed this
Wake me up
Take me up
Salvation, salvation


Vampire’s Rose

The sun will rise
And the rose will bloom
Must have been your eyes
Lighting up the room
I take a deep breath
And count up to
The time it takes
For me to get to you
A man will die
And a lady will cry
All it takes
To get things right
A little tragedy
A little comedy
Next thing you know
A happy family
I’d die for you
No one but you  
How do you do
Those things you do?
Open your eyes so you can see
Just what this is to me
Open your eyes so you can see
How much you mean to me
A rose is a rose
Red’s the faster love grows
Black’s the faster life goes
Much like the one lying on my doorstep, its death
A lifelong debt to pay
You can only run so long in this race
But only if you can withstand the pace
Dodged yet another date with death
But its fate you have to face
So if there’s someone out there reading
I can’t help wondering
What would this race be like without me?
Just another day without you with me
Please, Mr. Destiny - play that song for me
The song you played
…When we were all just roses in bloom


Skin

A sky cloud free
Allowing me
To finally see
What’s in front of me
This new planet
This new land
Followed the rabbit
This couldn’t have possibly be planned
So I shed
For my surroundings
In which most have bled
For days upon landing
What this is that’s coated me
Random bliss and completely me
Show me a world that needs no skin
Now point to where I begin
So to begin
I lend my skin
Thorns pricking my feet beneath me
I don’t have time to bleed
Focusing
Naked and lost
But at what cost?
All my dreams come true
Produced and confused
All this 3D rollercoaster of scenery is completely fused
So come with me and we’ll see
The path we take is neither cold nor blinded by rainbow
So let’s go
We could see each other again
All we’d have to lend - our skin


Refugees

Hype-hungry media posts the shootings in schools
Kids die every day but never make the news
A lie, a back stab, all a mind twirl
Too many lives demolished just to polish the world
It’s hard to fight for what is right
When you’re the only one not blinded by the light
Of the glamor and fame
Everybody knows the game
Everybody knows your name
But you have to be good because you still feel the same
The truth within your mind
You have to fight
The truth we need to find
Fight for what is right
Show me something more to life than money
Economical cannibal
Nothing sacred or spiritual
All the actions only mandible
Treated like animals in a cage
Sharing the same name
A barcode
Across the forehead of you and I
Only to help them soften the mold
Copied
You’re copied
You’re a clone
Scream to the microphone
Scream bloody murder until there’s no tomorrow
But be looking over your shoulder 
For why you’re a clone
Comes through your stereo
Big man’s on the throne
Wrong man’s in the chair
Witness eyes are sewn
Always have done what they say
Why should you care?
Don’t let the drones
Drag you away from life
No
Self-esteem below your soul
Brought to attention
You’re lower than zero
Keep it on the down low
Decisions are made
It’s the big man’s house we raid
Big man’s on the throne
Wrong man’s in the chair
Witness eyes are sewn
The message you blare 
Big man’s on the throne
Wrong man’s in the chair
He’ll never see home
With no one to care
Nobody’s a zero
Everybody has to play hero
None of us will ever get a tribute
So what’s the point to contribute?
Too many victims to list them
Between the lines - a message
Fight the system
So you came to a country where it’s free to live
High risk to take
More pride to give
A place where you don’t hide your past
Your past hides you
In the back of your mind
As you’re locked up for a false charge
You’ve got time to unwind
Mistaken identity
Perception’s not in the eyes but in the mind
Now’s the time 
He thinks - kill the man
Cover it up with special effects and make them understand
Fuck you, fuck them, they don’t know
Everybody put down for thinking aloud
If that’s freedom, please lock me up
No need to feed the greed
Drag me
Pull me
Drag me down
We’re thinking aloud now
Kill me off for my thoughts
Don’t worry about the battles I fought
Now it’s time to pull me down
You try to put that hand over my mouth
Too late - we’ve got people speaking what they’re thinking
Can’t shut us down
Drag me
Pull me
Drag me down
We’re thinking aloud now
Too much heat
No more sleep
Now we wonder why
We can’t survive
Can’t live in this box another day
Hopefully soon this will be a memory
However a memory that will haunt me
Taunt me, and release me through a melody
Blistering - we’re all in this room
And it’s getting smaller
Fourteen to fifteen billion stand alone yet together
Away from home
Heat stricken and suicidal
All while holding their own
What’s the point of never showing enough?
We know sometimes life is just too tough
What’s the point of always holding it off?
I’d wait until tomorrow, too, but tomorrow’s come and gone
Behind enemy lines
The point of no return is in their eyes
That’s right, piercing through our disguise
Ties us up so you can’t hear the cries
We think until our thoughts are suffocated
And this is how liberty dies
