Nosebleed

A poem from 2018

It's serious
And so am I
Occasionally I cover it up with a paper tissue
Blood stained
Soaked in it
Velocity
Fast
Like a steam train thrusting through nasal passages
It goes:
Boom boom, boom boom
The feeling of doom
Fear of getting kicked off the show
White as a sheet
Life ebbs away

Then I wake up
It was only a daydream
The mind depressed runs away to worst case scenario

Falling On My Head

A poem from 2017

Raindrops
As I'm tied to this bed
Falling
Onto my silent head
Harnessed
So I can't move
Regular
Drip drip drip
Torture
Trying to break my will
Relentless
Crashing inside my brain
Insane
Oh how you want that to be true!

Conspiracy

A Poem from 2016

Watch me perform it on YouTube...

Conspiracy, conspiracy, everywhere
And not a drop to drink
Paranoia pervades my friends
And in the past
My heart would sink
To fearful fear
Thinking the same

They're all out to get me
To stab me in the small of the back
Crippled by imagination
“They”
The faceless
The anonymous
Out there
The whatever percent

And now
Powerless
The waters wash beside me
Bliss
Happiness
Not eroded
Peace
With my crossbow
I shot the monster

The Power of Paranoia

A poem from 1992





















It’s the thing that paranoia is made of

Strange,
but it’s true
that sideward glance that life casts
at me
Unloved at first sight

We find everything
but that which we want
I want her
but how could I find the way
into her heart?

In more menial example
this creeps upon me
and this poem achieves nothing
it is not worth the paper it is written on
