What is it that you want
To make your whole life better
To revamp you like a new font
A new trendsetter

I’ve been working
Day and night
I’ve been dreaming
Now finally seeing the light

A moment of silence for the ones lost in the dark
A second to remember the girl you kissed in the park
A time to rave with your hair ablaze and feet in the air
A notepad on the desk saying don’t just leave me here

Crystals and the end of summer

A Rocky fireball
Flying past millions of giants in the sky
A wish upon a star
Shooting through the sweet by and bye

A dream of flood
Swallowing up mountains from peak to valleys trough
A desert of blood
Skin and bones grinding in a land where life can be so tough

A man made god
An intellect with all the evil he had wrought
Our justification for slavery and the iPod
And all the countless wars we have fought

Step through the rhythms of my heart
And start a fire that will never depart
Get through on a call to Mr lonely
Take away the mask from Mr phony

909s and falling in love
Never fails to put a lift in my spirits
Black ‘n white hands ‘n glove
I’m trying to call with the rest of my minutes

If the streams continued to carry the seas
As the birds flutters among the trees
Will you look back to the city and me
Or would gaze into the horizon with masked glee

It fell gently if such a thing could be said
But the bridge that held this nation is fled
Perhaps a king will hold firm in her stead
The smiths called it, the Queen is dead

I stopped writing for you
And my warped point of view
This is my attempt to bridge the sea
Between what was and the is to be

And within cryptic words
Spoken in hushed whispers
I unearthed suppressed thoughts
From the heart that I lost

I glad in ignorance of if you ever loved me
For in this ocean you and I are but a few
And although it took a decade, I am free
Of the knowledge that I never had you

We named our Gods after our flaws
And inscribed it’s virtues
Into all of our rights, lore and laws

We spoke of great creation at once
But are oblivious to the fact
That light and dark are in a dance

From whence com’st thou to trouble my sights
And with my mind with you incessant fights
Be thou either shade or man I hereby demand
Declare yourself to be friends or foe lest I take a stand

Thrice I called out to you across the Styx an unbeliever
Drunk off of a bottle of stolen liquor
If you had heard and returned her back as I said
Perhaps I wouldn’t have laid siege to leave behind scores of dead

To where goes thou but to the city of gold
Searching for the bones of the kings of old
it is said that he who can survive past the drums and fife
Will be celebrated with rum and rewarded eternal life

Rock-a-bye quietly in this cradle
And drink this here soup from a ladle
I’m searching if there’s spirit in these words
But first, is the spirit with us anymore?

Yes sir yes sir, like a box of fresh rain
Trying to heal and wash away the pain
Inflicted when the light was asleep
And dark we had with ourselves to keep

How I wish you were here
To be in heaven is with you my dear
And without it’s not hard to tell
That this is a living hell

Can you feel this chemistry
It’s like we have been set alight
And even though we were once so teary
everything will be alright

I’m breaking daggers
That you’re forcing me to unpack
If they’re left unattended
They wittingly find a back

I’m hacking chains
Fixed to my limbs and nape
Would it hurt if I shot myself in the head
Or better still changed my name

Ramming my head into a brick wall
Waiting and tired to being alone
I’m not going to miss you most of all
I’m building myself a new home

Strange thing Love,
You’re giving it away
And it comes back harder
Love, i’m holding it here
And it keeps getting lost

Slow to love,
Making another Revolution
Fast asleep,
Feeling like a new born
And i’m smiling all day long

These years are like waves
That ebb and flow out of me
Gently carving meaning from life

The stars in the darkened night
Guide the babe emerging
From the ocean of the womb
Into a world in need to it’s light

Here I guide to the gates of nirvana
Past the streets of woe
And the hills of desolation
To the lands were angels do weep
In praise of manifold glory

To journey into this elysium
We mustn’t toast nor feast
In the halls of Valhalla
Waiting for that which comes in peace
To rescue you and her

Can you find the keeper of secrets
From high above the castle walls
Will you know the fate of the King
By divining with the bones below the keep

Can you hold your own
Against the will of the whole
Would your body listen to you condone
Acts that eat at your very soul

If I allowed you one wish
to pause this being
and return to a previous time
would you remember
how lovely the mess we were was

the fragility of this easter egg
we this fleeting thing called happiness
that we find in midst of rubble
from a forever ending bloodbath
gaddamn, it’s fucked up!

So if I allowed you a second chance
what would you change
or what would you like to watch again
would it be about the fabric of your soul
the mistakes that made you whole?

This thing we cherish so much
and want to hold onto
how would you manage to stay here forever
perhaps we could find away to make it work
i know you never say the word never

What do you think about the way I smile
Crooked teeth like uneven floor tiles
Lady please feel this heart in front of you
A touch me from a million miles away with your glorious view

What if I don’t awake to your kiss good morning
Snuggled safely in my cold blankets
Make me some tea
I’ll be right down if I sensed you waiting for me

She got so high
Floating into another world
And everyone says hi
From all around the world

Hey mama,
It’s the dawning of a new age
Wouldn’t you like to know
What I’ll write on this new page

I’m going out of my mind
Ripping at the seams
Those were his final words
That all was not as it truly seems

Then Goodbye.

I’m not going to disappear
When you say my name
I want to be with you right here
Each and everyday

Whether in the same
Or in different places
We will laugh in the spirit of play
A huge grin on both our faces

Take me to the ends of the earth
And swear that in life where adjoined so
We shall only be asunder in death
Find me in the next life like you always do

The spirit was dramatised
And the sun was incarnated as man
Just to be next to you
According to the original plan

Look for me darling
I’ll be waiting in the dark
Trying to ignite some light
Say my name when you’re near

Forever Yours,
August J. Baudelaire

Take the money and run
As far with it as you can
Maybe later you’ll have some fun
If you find yourself a better man

Take the money and run
But don’t leave me hanging
Without my Molly and the gun

Do you scroll on tick tock
Laughing or crying
As the time goes tic tock
Living closer to dying

Would you swipe right on me
After a long tiring day
And I wrote about anime and ice cream
And the board games I play

What is the truth behind the way you roll your eyes
And what will I tell from your hips which tell no lies
I don’t know how much longer I can keep this going
But hey, these were hushed feelings all the fucking way

Do you think I remember your favorite flavor or ice cream
And what necklace your wore on that night we talked about loss
I don’t know if it even matters to you
But could it have been too early to learn how to love

She spoke softly
Like the light of sunrise
But to those who understood
It was the middle of the night

Young heart of mine
we have reached the end of the line
of what it is to be
so forgive me if I set you free

Wake up Prince Charming
Your sleeping beauty awaits

Lady don’t run away from love
I know that what we shared was romantic
But leaving me with just a slipper is a bit dramatic

Will you forgive the skeletons in my dungeon
And that I trapped you all by your lonesome
Will you stay until the heart of this beast blooms
And perhaps show him true loving too

I’m coming back to retake the throne
I abdicated when I ran away from home
Thank you for believing in me

Let out your hair into the wind princess
And call out all the colours that’s you see

I know you want me
That’s why i’m hiding away these days
But I promise to show myself
If you swear to be good and kind to me

What if I died
Will you mourn my absence like a friend
Or will you forget that I ever was here
Just say a little prayer for me

Late night s**
And a longing induced cardiac arrest
Couldn’t hold me back from the end
But I needed some long deserved rest

Smoked potatoes
And a side of tomatoes sauce with gravy
Couldn’t make me forget the bile
You left when you spoke falsely of destiny

The world began in a similar fashion of how it will end
And i’m sure someday we’ll figure it out
And we’ll laugh for a really long time
Because after that it wouldn’t matter

I just want you to read
And have a good time
Writings should be enjoyed
At least the good ones

Steadily recollecting words
I wrote in a book from a long time ago
Looking at pictures
Of me smiling with an Afro
‘Does time not stop for no one?
Onward marching never quitting’

I’m so sleepy
Why is the bed so cold?

Let our minds mingle
In a wrestling match
And our ideologies have it out
In mortal combat
Let’s both have
Equal standing
Without regard for our age
Sex or our race
Let’s make a pressure pot
Filled with the best
And toughest of ideas.
When it begins to bubble
Tip the lid and let it blow
So that perhaps
Our thoughts would travel
And fly through the air

Everything has been getting better
Through science you say
More food, more money, the poor people are getting fatter
To more data you pray

The different narratives are fighting
And we shall be wept by its flood
The noise and lights will be blinding
And all that would be left is our blood

Everything is getting better
I conclude to retort
Just look at the weapons we have to kill each other faster
Sarcasm is a last resort

The ways we live our lives
To prevent elementary catastrophe
When the greatest one stares us back in the mirror
A mind with the power to make both,
and bring forth hell in pursuit of heaven

Hello world and all that you share
Hello world, the life we must bear
Goodnight void and all the space you take
Goodnight void, the price of heartbreak

Hello you, my loyal friend
A cozy pillar I knew I could always depend
Goodnight me, your sleepy traveler
Dozing in and out listening to Rammstein

Will you crack under the weight of
The load I must bear
Will I rest if I really must give
To the abyss, all my fears

If we were able to grab the meaning of it all
what else would we have for a purpose?
If we were privy to the secret of the mystery
would it not tear us apart from within?

Perhaps this question of evil we like to ask

Isn’t about how a god can permit this to occur,
but how can man will it,
knowing the pain and reality of suffering
choosing for someone else to die instead of him?

This seems to me to be the crux of the crucifixion myth:

that we must sacrifice for our fellow man
and each bear our cross to atone for all of evil.
this morning I tried to imagine a world
where we did our very best to accomplish this

It lead me to thoughts of Armagideon, but it could be Paradise.

– Yours sincerely,
Madeleine C. Claire

Forget love and our sickness for connection
Deny me sunshine and the seeds of salvation
Touch me once and I shall be newly reborn
Remember me even after from our mothers we are torn

Forget love and our date by the river
Under those stars you made me a believer
You spoke about your little girl and I wanted to make you my wife
We kissed under the moonlight of that greatest night of my life

I can hear my heart beat indecisively,
Sometimes I am such a Jerk

Unsure of what to think of
In Shadows that surround me

Till I sought out a passion
To nourish and be my Soul Food

Most of My dayz are spent
Make out who I am beneath the noise

High to the fucking gills
Sirens cry a Fantasy Opera

On that High M3 Ride to BP
Happy as fuck
I couldn’t wait to see you.

– Inspired by ASM-SAN’s Broken Hits

I’m going outside
And I don’t care if it’s raining
Mi o bi wọn leere
jẹ k’awọn ọmọde mi ṣere

I stepped faraway
To connect with the old gods
O le so nkan fun mi
Ma teriba si anybody

I feel in my element
No filter on these thoughts
Mo ma pada wa
titi di igba naa

Ke kọrin ke kijó ṣaaju ki o to
fun ogun pẹlu awọn oriṣa titun

Would you like some coffee
To go with your toast and cheese
I’m pretending not to hear
Staring at the hobo about to freeze

I put some extra cream
Is that how you…——
His blasphemy broke the daydream
But I choose not to argue

I drink and smile a little
I have a bite from my toast
Let’s have the rest to go please
Sure, it’s always nice to see you.

I’ve turned out all the lights
And i’m feeling a little blue
It’s the middle of the night
And darling i’m thinking of you

Will you be here soon
Radiant Sunshine
Beseech the green moon
To find something better to do

Love is a four letter word
That rules the world
Love is a four letter
Lethal, but you may have all of mine

The dawn is breaking in

On Sunday morning

It’s nothing and all

Save me from my falling

Don’t let it break your heart

I don’t want us to be apart

Night haunts me

Will you hold onto love

Murder, is just a kiss away

Bite me.

For second I thought
Thou must be
The most beautiful creature
In this world or any others

And for all the seconds
And years since
I’ve had very little doubt
That if one knew
How the world was governed
One would know,
That not all of beauty roams free

Even the moon, the stars
And the sun
Are bound like leaves in a tree
But compared to you
In ecstatic glee
Most else looked like pitiful tar

So I consign myself
To be a satellite for thee
That thee may give life
To me.

If I asked
What you knew of fate
You may say
It’s a door or rather the gate
That one will pass
Whether struggling or with poise
For no one can change
What was at the beginning never a choice

If I asked
What you thought
About new beginnings
You may say
Stop with the foolishness
We both know
Such things do not exist
Except in dreams

Send for the diadems
To be placed on his head
He’ll be ready once
That girl leaves his bed

Send for the maids
to water seeds
Before the sun comes out
But not more water than
the plant needs

How does the beast feed
From our thoughts when we sleep
Memories of secret deeds
That we intend to keep

Perhaps the angels are all sleeping
And heaven will not hear this
But there’s a little child weeping
Questioning creation and all of this

In all likelihood, we’re in hell she said
But don’t try to reason you way out
You’ll only keep flailing till you’re dead
Then you’ll see there’s nothing to fuss about

I’d venture a guess, but I don’t know who’s listening
And there’s clues for those who wish to find it
First, within a forest grave you’ll find treasure glistening
Lastly, the ink on the page will not blot.

Clementine knows
I think she knows
that I think she’s gold

When we were young,
Things were different.
And still she wishes to be

Like the delicate flowers
she was. Even though,
All things must have it’s season.

She tells me that sometimes,
She forgets the harder things,
So I call her heaven in my bed.

In my sweet dreams
We shared in our youth
I think I was called ‘Lucky Cody’.

When together for supper
I am just humble miner
And she was my darling,
Clementine.

It was silent
Like the graves we got drunk by
It was cold
Like the tombs we crept by
It felt like a miracle
The most beautiful sound
I’d ever heard
It was boundless
Like the ocean your mother drowned in
It was warm
Like my voice against your face
And your hand on my chest
It was sung
And i heard it somehow
Although i was deaf
It was also the first time
The world gained color
Before my very eyes

The children gather around the rainbow coloured xylophone
Singing rhymes that the teacher taught them a day ago
Holding hands circling rings around the player who was suddenly not alone
It’s a lovely memory buried in my past from forever ago

I glide through the rooms in this mind palace
Trying to retrace some steps I seem to have lost
You are the oil poured over the head of the king from the middle school play
I am the traitors cup of wine from an eventful last meal

There he was sitting on his hospital bed
Playing a video game that he got some Christmases ago
Not a care in the world that he had been dead
Maybe not more than 3 hours ago

She is convulsing at the foot of the altar
Enraptured with zeal for the ineffable
Save him lord or i may very much die as well, she cried
To all who watched, the truth echoing was palpable.

We were children circling the glorious throne
Lost in the profundity of reality
It was silent…
Echoing silence bordering on unreality.

Nameless but we knew better
And since we had all of eternity
We continued to sing and continued to dance
We continued to love as though it were our only chance

Storms break to the yoke of sunshine
We fall deeper into each other’s arms tripping on the guitarist’s blues strings
Drunk in love on something so fine

Winter caves that life may spring
So the earth yields to seedlings
We move lockstep in tune
To the words of my slow revolution

The glances our eyes steal at another
Perhaps today I should say hello
But first a very big thank you
To GS, Buddha and Alexander
How to find a, sound eagle and inner peace.
And all others who read and share and like

Tonight as I write
The wind sings into my lungs
Dusk promises to take me home
With my head in clouds I hear subtle songs
The ink speaks to me like the heart of a fire
Incantations written with the blood of Gaia

Today I rode to the fruit shop on my bike
I bought some apples, cherries and a pomegranate
Then I got a cucumber and other veggies that I like
My sister calls to remind me about the dates

Yesterday I rode to the park on my bike
But my friends said we’d walk the rest of the way
So up the fairy’s hill we took a hike
It was a truly memorable day

Love and let live
Cries the spirit of the time
Drive and take me
To the springs of ever after

Violent delights
And impassioned outcries
Of please let me go
Question marked innocence
And juvenile love
Pleasing to let me know

Catch me if I fall
Deeper into winters virgin snow
Save me from the untold
If this insanity continues to unfold

Under the covers
You lay like a beast
Who knows what goes on in that head
Your eyes fixed to the stars
Thanks to heaven for this feast
That girl curled in your bed

Love and let live
Cries the spirit of the times
Save yourself if you wish to be free
Beast or prey or whatever you may be

All I wanted was to do right
But in my passions was led into this song
And as I strayed from the light
I left you with this wrong

Of Goading the feeble-minded beast
With the hilt of your sword
Responsible for this abomination soaking our feet
The blood of those still joined at the cord

What will you pray, say
About this senseless massacre
That I have wrought upon this day
You harbinger of disaster

Do you not hear the bells tolling
For you and for me
Do you not feel hells grasp tightening
Do you still believe we are free

Someone’s going to pull me up from under
Although it might be foolish to ponder
That from the wrongs of hades and all we had mistaken,
Right will come to (battle the hordes
And with hosts) lead us to heaven

Don’t you dare
Think you can understand me now
I don’t care
And nothing can stop me now.

From another world
You can say
Be a little foolish
Right and Wrong be One and the Same.

Dissolve to become foam in the waves

Retire with me to be a sprite that saves

Lost souls searching for a home

With nothing in the world and no place to go.

Swim over me with the thirst of the sea

We are who we are and what we want to be

And although our roads were paved on forgiven sins

The walls still feel like they’re closing in.

Will you shepherd me through the wildness

And comfort me in this valley of death

Will you take care of me

Will we survive out there on the sea

It’s midday over a deep blue sky
And the smell of blossoms and flowers too
Swimming with the wind flowing by
The tree with the carved names of me heart you

It’s a melody guiding shipwrecked sailors in their doom
Struggling against the pull to the bottom of the sea
It’s the sirens song, I’ll love to see you soon
Soft hearts at rest, air bubbles looking for breath

Love, Princess of the underworld
I thought you were but a dream
You didn’t have to leave the sea
Just to be here in depravity with me

There’s not much to be learnt
About love and fate
Outside of heartbreak, death
And what you thought was freedom
In those pale blue eyes.

It’s a brave thing to know all that,
And still wish to be drunk on romance
I will leave all of tomorrow’s costume parties
High on life
With the girl in the silk gown

Will you make a bridge
Between reason and feeling
To be at peace with the truth in yourself.
Or other things be damned?
Yeah, why is that so bad?

You are the rosebuds of Golgotha
Thorns stripped away for a crown
I offer them as homage to the king
He’s crying out to the sky, but at us, he smiles down

I am the curtains of the upper room
Torn apart during an earthquake
You fold and entomb me with a carpenter
He held me because I begged, we are risen like bread.

Be my friend in this dream
And share this breath of life with me
It’s not more than it seems
Everyone gasps
When death sets us free

Will you choke the candles
After I have fallen asleep
And lay with to me on the floor
Keeping warm
Tightly till the birds sing of dawn

Guide me through the crossroads
Where the wild roses grow
To find what lives beyond
all façades
Soon we will know

All heart and unintelligible I may be
Deaf to the moans of forever in a hymn
But feeling the warmth of winter’s kiss
On morning dew
I swear to always the there for you

I saw sparks fly onto the tinder
Of this already naked mother
Slow, but exponential without rest
An inferno engulfs the forest

And the crimes we commit
No child is innocent enough for our conceit
The horrors of our hellish tendencies
Born out of utopian fantasies

Must the soul rage against itself
Convulsing in dread of what is to come
A stupendous crime to end this game
A return to the kingdom of that with no name

The clouds offer reprieve to the gaping wound
Those who survive content if the sun doesn’t arrive too soon
We’re arming ourselves for a love crime
And we shan’t stop, unto the end of time

Let’s go together to heaven
Even if we don’t know how
Man doth not by bread
But by the sweat of the brow

Let’s visit the museum
There’s an exhibition in town
Called ‘A parade of bones’
Critics call it ‘Mona Lisa’s frown’

May I touch your cheek
And whisper into your ears
Do you miss me
In that tomb of fears

Teach me how to pray
I’m terrified of hell
Who could mandate such pain
Asks Moon-burned girl
