orns are plucked
salvation of starvations
up to the tip of the stem
Walls of the heart collapse
all is laid to rest
thoughts passing rapidly
life just a memory.


2. Waste of Time

There's nothing like being lied to
a feeling of deep disgust
it's only normal to feel things
but very hard to forget
like the stroke of a butcher's knife
destroying effortlessly
distorted thoughts
hate are tears
leave the heart empty
Misleading conclusions
are a spreading disease
obtaining the ability
to discard with simple ease
Waiting for that special something
deaf dumb and blind
your special moment has arrived
and gone before your eyes.


3. Rote

Obsession turns addiction
the skin a masochist playground
in which I illustrate emotion
through physical deformation
pain is unfelt
Bodily desire overwhelms the consciousness
the need to express myself
rational thought paralysed by
artistic difference
my compulsion must be brought
to obscurity
Of art I carve my skin
seperation of thought
involuntary actions
The head torn apart
overlapped by skin
digits cut short
Lips sewn together
tongue cut apart
these are my actions
Held together by rods
eyelids peeled back
conclusion by rote
Altering ego questions
exercise now done
body will now alter
consciousness succumbs
The masterpiece now forgiven
The final word unveiled
a sudden decay is now revealed
the body now done
Obsession turns addiction
the skin a masochist playground
in which I illustrate emotion
through physical deformation
pain is unfelt.


4. Chewed Up and Spit Out

Orange and various colors
some lasting longer than others
consumed for the future of most
with hopes that most will agree
the accepted great taste
Reveals many similar flavors
with hopes that most will agree
creating juniors and seconds
first will always be best
When seconds are put to rest
like a limited time offer
or a turning of a switch
lights go out at midnight
ending the fly by night
Now most are dry and dull
chewed are savored too long
Chewed up and spit out
Ejected with force
Unwrap the new.


5. Swollen 03:31

In my eyes your mind is lost
total ignorance
misintelligence
feelings for nobody but yourself
stupidity
My mind is blank in what to say to you
you make me think about your misconceptions
the "american dream"
it's about everyone
people have feelings the same as you and me
violent way of life shouldn't be like this
is this how "we" are
the route we're talking
is this what it's come to
land of bigotry
why do you hate
what has anyone done to you
I can't understand
Wish it would all just end
there's a hole in my heart
the people I know
the pain in their eyes
"Powers" they must stop
got to have an effort
all of this disgrace
does anyone care
I do
Swollen
this is my hope
everyone to see
we can't continue like this
it's so wrong
don't clash
just talk
patience, learning, teaching
give it a chance


6. Human

I never lie for myself
or project a false image
to keep from being so called out or deny my self-existence
Existing for my own
not for the masses
social status doesn't matter
it's just a waste of time
sick of this ridiculousness
and the need to impress
destroy this common weakness
why be just like the rest
Shy away everyday
what good did it do
what good does it do
Ironing out my life
I've ridden from myself what doesn't matter
kill the thoughts that kill
multiplied fears are the leading cause
rejection is no more
I've wiped the slate clean
