Anger (Remove filter)
FORGIVENESS
Forgiveness is my best friend
she gives such relief
---
Finding my best friend
can be such a challange
She often hides in the corners of my mind
plays hide and seek with my heart
---
It's so hard to let go
and let her do her magic
It's easier to sit in the dark closet
holding onto anger

Anger is black and painful
it takes from my soul
It lies and ch...

Who Cares?
(spoken wordy angsty teenagery type poem; a work in progress)
I just need a friend
someone to turn to,
but what's the point in a friend if that friend isn't you?
Yiu see, i've got my demons
but you've got yours too.
You've got problems with the scale and you hair smells stale from all the cigarettes you smoke to curb the cravings

who hasn’t the sense to spend a sliver of his tax-free billions
on decent hair...

But I need
to let it out.
And instead
I get frustrated
and a little mad.

Riding on red
Baby, oh cry "red red" baby!
Red stare, double dare me, baby.
You look angry maybe,
that frown like a red cloak across your gaze
with your silver tongue
words like shining bullets
cutting me down with your mad arms.
What mad, bad arms you have!
What a mad, bad glare you have!
All the better to come swinging at me
with those meaty limbs like axes.
Oh, please baby I'...

Tips for my Daughter, How not to get raped, pt1
There is a time to please, to appease, to apologise
For the tease, for existence
To apologise for the breasts, and the audacity
To want ownership, to be landed gentry of the manger
To pray less than politely for a lack of invitation from
The testosterone laden entitlement
When you trust him, the deceit still sits
In that firm space between gender specifications and stereot...
