Comparison...
Comparison,
With anyone,
Always,
Gives birth to,
Envy,
Envy leads to Anger,
And when Anger subsides,
Fear overtakes,
Fear of Failure,
Ruining your Life.
So,
Never let them compare you,
For you are unique,
In your own special way,
Cherish your Talents,
Do what brings you Joy,
The most, Moreover,
It's all about You,
So why not compare
Yourself...

Anger's Embrace
Anger curls its tendrils around me,
it envelopes me whole,
strokes me tenderly.
It forms an impenetrable wall,
a shield of sorts,
to keeps me safe and sound.
It takes all those blows
and hits for me,
protects me from my foes.
Rage filled screams,
cover the sound of falling tears.
Sadness sits beside me,
gently wipes my sea.
Anger extinguishes my fear,

Guilt Rebuked
Guilt Rebuked!
You liar!
A wretched bully’s sidekick

– just agree with everything, always.
And your answer is always the same.
Coward!
Whisper your poison and
look away as if…
But I know it’s you;
I...

The Fire
you lay numb
hypotherminc, dying
the fire, it dances
taunting, flickering, in and out
like hope
hope that it may help
help to that your frozen fingertips
slow your chattering teeth
soothe, ebb the icy grasp of the violent, pulsing
piercing burning
that is your fear and your doubt and denial
the drowning, whispering, screaming
wave that comes crashing
beating ...

My sides burn
Like eyes are burning into every cell of it
Between my eyebrows are tense
In an unknown anger
My stomach has ghost peppers
Riding a looping roller coaster
Through a gang of butterflies
My back has cracked so many times
That each pop adds another insecurity
Into the polluted puddle of muscle in my skull
My eyes are tired
Tired of holding the tears that...

Distend
Fortune fails what love forgets
An entanglement of horror
Forgotten fools, defile the soul
Left foraging for sorrow
Permissive lives, destroyed by God
Perturbed, entrenched with puss
Presumed and cloaked in putrid lies
Distends a repulsive trust
