Dark-Minded-Poetry

(Intended to be read very fast) A smidgen of religion flew off with a carrier pigeon into bourgeoisie sea of potpourri The only thing that was a guarantee was that everyone would disagree Many felt god was just a facade to keep us in pods with a control rod until we are buried underneath their green sod Tighten the dog collar live in squalor while chasing after the mighty dollar The resident president came on the news spilling moronic thoughts like black liquid ooze We can no longer ignore that the marine corps needs to be deployed There are so many nations causing complications with all our pre-conceived expectations Our relations should be one of confrontation accusations and allegations More money for the corporations justifies our continuous occupations We will not be deterred by ramifications public relations, demonstrations, or publications There will be no negotiations Don’t worry about the cause or any laws Just join in the applause and wave that flag proudly upon

Sand and seaweed entwines with your hair Your milk-like skin turns stiff and cold Like the silent stones That caught your final fall And the sea’s bright surface Irritates your eyes no more A blossom of your deathly beauty As waves stroke you Gently like the way I used to Yet you smile no more An expression instead of pure awe Frozen timeless on your face Soon the fish will come and feed Then the snakes and bugs will crawl Their hungry mouths and teeth Will hurt no more This empty shell of bone A skeleton of What I once called home I’ll sit with you until night’s fall Until darkness envelops us both Empty shells equally in peace And I’ll be here by your side We’ll watch the sun and feel its glow We will both dry out and shrivel Equally inanimate I will stay here by these rocks Watching your blood slowly flow Out here, with you Forever alone

The sand smells of algae and blood As it clings to our exposed bodies Sharp and soaked with eternal lust It speaks to the wilderness Carefully concealed within our souls A whisper from the down below As we float freely, weightless and young again On the surface of the sea, powerful and raw Submerge with me into it guilt-free Feel the substance that has been feeding us All along Our flesh may rot and dissolve All pretence cleaned from it by the unforgiving salt But our very selves will be reborn Beneath the roaring waves We’ll continue living anew Mixed with the molecules of other corpses And all human-made will be swallowed Taken away by the careless currents We’ll swim, until the end of time We will roam, our minds filled with courage Into the cold embrace of the unknown

Who’s the shadow underneath the mask Who’s the sad clown With a knife behind her back Who’s the secret whisperer And the maker of all dreams Who’s the fragile thread That connects present with the past Who’s the conqueror of pain Who is the child hurt and who licks the scars Who’s the voice that never stops As long as time ticks Who’s the watcher behind the tinted glass The true self never dies Covered by dirt and shame it hides It struggles its way through the tides The shadow and the mask The nameless one behind both lies
