Musings on an Angry Person

I'm gonna scream until my lungs give out
I'll look you in the eye and lie
And swear behind your evil back
You never had the right
To take my rights away!
I'd rather die than let you win
I'd rather fight than let you in
So mad that I
Could stretch a swearword
To the sky
I hate to even think your name
I want to cause you all the pain
In the world so you can finally see
The pain you gave to me!
I'm not sure she wants to be saved
If she's happy being sad
Cutting down the shoots so nothing regrows
But the hurts of being bad

Me

Man on a boogie board
Paddling like a fool
Drowning in the tidal wave

Freak?

Have you heard the sound
Where you fall down
And no one frowns
Because they all expect it
I'm wearing one now though
Because you can't beat up
The universe with one glove
Beating up yourself.

You're so busy getting lost
You don't take time to count the cost
Take the fork cut in the road
All alone, all alone
And find your mind has gone there first

Some new beginnings are just the old
With brighter curtains, no more mould
But it grows on you, like love
And all alone you
Find your mind in two perfect halves

Blues and greens
Find out what the colours mean
And all the shades of inbetween
Perhaps I need to change outfits

To think of humanity as Creation's chief end, with Creation only there to support man in exercising dominion is to view the purpose of a cake as to hold up the icing.
Dinosaurs with knives
Coming home for dinner
And eat you up
With sharpy pointy teeth

Be Free

My wings are delicate
Fused of air and bone
My feathers anchored softly
My heart it beats so quickly
Counting down a shooting star's lifetime
Set me free

Your hands mean so well
But fold like an invasion
My limbs so weak and tiny
Can't push you away
You weigh me down so heavy I can't hardly breathe
Set me free

I need to fly
I need to feel the earth
Fall away like pain
The snow-soft touch of air
To carry me
Where I can breathe again
Set me free
Set me free
And I will finally
Be
Happy.
Simon says:
bouncing thoughts
Simon says:
help you write poetry
Simon says:
when you try to snatch them in nets of words
Simon says:
so you can finally work out what they are
I wish.

Dreams are hopes
Leaking out at the seams
It seems I'm haemorraging
The universe slips
Between clumsy fingers
With the heaviness of nothingness

Time

The hunter becomes
The hunted
Killer time.

Clear
Clear as mud
Bust me up
Knock me down
Stand

Clear
Clear as rain
Wash me away
Watch me drown
Stand

Clear
Clear as pain
Watch me love
Stand the rain
Stand

Britain

Anticipate the fall
The empire hears you
And does nothing
The wall
Oh the wall will
Keep you safe
But fear has claws

Everything is fine
We are moving away
Because
The wall
Oh the wall will
Keep you safe
You don't need us

But fear has claws
And half the day
I guess it was only time
Till people say
"I remember Britain"
No more.
I know the town I know the type
All in leather, labels, hype
You stole the stars
You owned the show
You're an idiot to the bone

If you've lost them already
You've nothing left to lose
