Picking at the scabs that stitch my skin.Wondering if there is a way in;To this house that was a home.Once it was all I had know.Yet now I’m…Rifling through streets alone.Sick and tired of the roam.Cause I’m walking concrete without shoes.Feels like every day I lose. Damned me to constant when I’m not respondant.Who wereContinue reading “Scapegoated”

Grind the bones into dust.In these words all should trust.Not a statement I plan to follow.Every word seems empty and hollow.But this is the promise! Straightjacket the world into place.Universal hell head space. Bear witness under the flag.Perhaps all is well says the rag…Tag bunch who still gleam with hope.To be honest they should beContinue reading “Universal Hell”

Anger is all we get from you.Every word is violence that you spew.Calm demeanour has never been here.You strike the match, light the fuse and hit an explosive tier. Lounge about is your way.Sloth is what you do embody.Can’t say that there’s a care at all;The things you do stain your name from rise toContinue reading “The Seven”

Gun on my hip with a fully loaded clip.Couple at my back ready for a crack.Outgunning me ain’t ever gonna be.So prepare to not ever stare;Otherwise I might make you care. Slinger.Death bringer.Sinner.Hell singer. Knife in my boot like an old coot.Give you a stab ’til you’re out on a slab.Tussle with me if youContinue reading “Slinger”

I search for the hands of my makers.For they were the only partakers;Founders of the world we tread.Cannot put that thought to bed.For they must dwell out beyond the edge.Reaching them is something to which I pledge. Not a dream but a promise I make.From this goal no one can shake;For my resolve is absolute.ToContinue reading “Those Who Came Before”

Calm does follow on from a storm.My reaction is that I feel forlorn.Nature melded with my blood.Perhaps I am just misunderstood. Wary glances often cast my way.It is the same every single day.You would think I am crook.From the way these people look. However I have never stole a thing.Not even that reckless woman’s ring.TheContinue reading “Annals”

Ears split as the thunder rolls.It’s frightening and taking its tolls.Payment wanted up front in full.This storm has a relentless pull. Demand that everybody heeds the call.If you don’t then you will fall.There is no doubt because it is fact.Relent now before you’re cracked,By the bursts of lightning bolts.Heart stopping value of volts.Believe that youContinue reading “Nature Speaks”

It’s dark under the stairs.No room to even split hairs.So long since I’ve left this space.Forgotten the look of my face.My eyes acclimiatised to night.What is it like to see bright? Memories are difficult to see.Will I ever be set free?Past events point to no.Suffering I wish would go.But hope is something I won’t hold.ToContinue reading “Prisoner”

Chances remaining to me are too few.I get why there is a demand I stay away from you.Emotions are raw and I was the blade.Came in like a butcher without an ounce of attention paid.Struck the match and caused the burn.No way I will deny that which I did turn.So deliver your punishment unto me.ForContinue reading “Excerpt From Events”

Bow down to your eternally chosen master.That way your ascent will be much faster.And with a gauntleted fist across your heart,You show how willing you are to start;Execute the orders that are given.It’s a command to dispatch the hidden.Those who dwell in the dark.They have been nothing but a shark;Busily baying for the greatest kill.AimContinue reading “Right Hand Of Ruin”
