Probably a parasite
a little bird, or fish i think
reincarnated into the am or ph ous blob you see today
and how hellish is that?
the very thought of finally leaving this goulash buffet style world
only to turn into something else and learn all of its terrible twists and turns all over again.
But who am i to philosophize?
my feet are cold
my arms are cold
but my fingers glow with embers from each word of purge.

Houston, we have some problems
I could sit on the moon and drink in the quiet
and be friends with my brain again
I would probably go to mars next and
lay down in the middle of a red dust storm right in the eye
and try to apologize for all of the
excavating those bully astronauts try to do
Then I want to stop by pluto.
Tell the little guy he was a great planet.
And enjoy the fact that I would be all alone,left to stargaze,
with my feet dangling off the smallest world that ever was.
Finally, I would pick a star and sort my entire life out.
I would apologize, recognize, idolize and
then curl up and sleep until that star ceased to exist.
of the most unorthodox kind. singed at the tips and letting out wisps of desperation contamination of the seperate universes that make up neverending cycles of day after day. shuffling to and fro from A to B, promising that after this one things will smooth out and start afresh. it will begin again and again, better and better after this one this one this one is it time yet?
once upon a time, there was a dollmaker
a lonley one was she
for the only one that looked at her
was the wilted ragged tree
And this dollmaker, she fixed
as well as created
for she hated seeing cracks
in otherwise flawless faces
the dolls were always grateful
for the makers help was sublime
but they always seemed to hide their friendship,
storing it for another time.
So the maker waited
very patiently of course
lest her only friend be the creaking rocking horse
When spotted, she sat upright
(could this be the day?)
only to find that she was really in the way
She wouldn't cry
that would be the worse
So she made a rust

The mermaid in the family
There once was a girl who lived in the ocean
It was a beautiful ocean, that goes without notion
The waters were clear, the sand was so soft
The coral and seashells made beauty aloft
It was lonley and quiet, but it work out quite well
for the fish never whine and the sharks never yell
Her loved ones threw her trinkets, made small conversation
she assures she's content, full of elation
She tells me alone, she's wild and free
The least I could do is rid her world of debris.
What happened to my body is a temple?
What happened to smiling in the mirror?
What the hell happened to feeling for real?
This is abuse is frowned upon
and yet few take the rope
to step forward and offer the wayward some hope
Because everyone deserves it right down to the end.
Everyone deserves that one outstretched hand
Whether to be freed or cured or fixed,its always worth the risk
To get away from these chains
and take hold of hope
because this time, I'll be waiting for you at the end of the rope
They say the wayward woman died with a smile on her lips.
no friends. nor family, she surely won't be missed.
Face up in shallow water, pale skin as cold as ice
a sign that she was successful of muffling infant cries.
some say it was Butcher, or the man in the yellow house
either way it ended up with a discarded emerald blouse.
The rumors were as scorching as the sun
when the town found out another wayward life has begun.
a fate she would not share
with the unborn she sang to with care
under the cover of night, she made her flight
and became one with the trees that witnessed it all.
It's in the ink they speak.
Carelessly dripping from their mouth
It smears across their teeth when they smile their staple-gun smile
They never remember the previous chapter, only the image of perfect little words printed perfectly on lily-white parchment.
Catch them, I dare you
see
what
monsters
they
become.
You're a haunting, haunting white,
if I squint and study
you're transparent.
I can see the places you keep your frustrations and I see where you keep your trueness.
It's in your eyes, moon girl.
Believe it or not, your irises deceive you.
They make you oh so visible.
They see the world from a broken heart and feel it with a broken soul.
But you have such stardust on your fingertips.
Your handwriting both whispering and screaming in your melded works.
Just hang in there ok? You'll meet the sky when you're ready, I promise. Besides you can't leave us here. I'll get more upset when the sky is blank, shrugging.
and I can't see the moo

When red is blue, And black is white
When night is day, And blind is sight
Topsy-Turvy feeds our appetites
When my mind's heavy, Mine is light
Its who we are, Not what we are
We live as one, Yet still apart
People gawk, They scream "Schizo"
They've got it wrong, We are "Schizo[s]"
And though I'm softer,
A ballet walker,
They haven't ceased their hurtful jeers
I'm successful,
A corporate staple
They've stayed as cruel all through these years
And so it is, We've stayed the same
With the exception, Of our names
I'm Leslisa
I'm Elaine
We are both separate
Yet the same

It's very frustrating when I want to purge a certain emotion specifically on paper, but the words I write go off on this mile-long tangent and don't sound at all like my initial thoughts.
This has been another whine courtesy o' suburban life
What persuades one to adhere to another
skin against coveted skin
eyes meet with irises dreamed about
Why do we yearn for someone
that one and only
so warm and soft and full
of that sticky sickly sweet
that makes you want to stay
a fly willingly caught in a spider's web
Why does one try
to type in such a melancholy
in hopes of obtaining
that someone one hopes for.
