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
