a woman looks at a lit candle in the dark with a watermark that says ' pixabay ' on it
Alt: a woman blows out a lit candle to create darkness
I die
& I’m falling
Which does not
Bode well you see
Cuz my Hell
Is game of Clue
From which
I can’t break free
I kill
With the
Candlestick
Indiscriminately
Then confess
A millionth time
“The killer’s me—
IT’S ME”
#Clueless
I’ll repeat my loop
Til Baal
Is done with me

It’s the silent obsessions
that echo the loudest
through the rafters
of your soul

at the break of day
brimming with je ne sais quoi
tellurian truth

I wrap myself in #ribbon
roll myself in glitter
I'm an unopened present
a sad and lonely mummy
I lie here by the fire
I hear the hiss and crackle
it takes but a single spark
a tiny ember set ablaze
my cold heart is warmed
but my lungs
are choked with smoke
on this most silent night

ghostlight on felled leaves
a calm of chrysanthemums
slip through satin air;
warm breath on a lover’s neck
scented with forbidden dusk

I think it’s important to tell people how you feel while you can.

Belief in something greater than yourself
Or belief that omnipotence is part of you
Reconnecting with your higher power
Entails looking within
Deeply and often

Survival depends
On applying lessons, hard-learned
It's up to me
To save my life
And once I jump
From the safety of the ship
That I cannot keep
Realistically, there will be
No one to catch me

there's a
natural sway
to her hips
to her ass
to her breasts
she is
a woman
real
genuine
and raw

she speaks fluent 3am,
tongue slick with moth-wing prayers;
a lullaby bruised in blackout bloom
her voice drips
between the walls
like tears of old
weeping ghosts
confession
or curse,
penitence
or prayer ~
it depends
on the hour

she laughs like spring,
soft and bright,
with eyes that glimmer,
sharp as night.
a heart so pure,
yet thoughts run wild;
both sin and saint
in one beguiled.

A string of failures
Can motivate the heart
We often have to hit bottom
To understand the top
Never give up - Never give in

Most times people who don't socialize much aren't actually antisocial. They just have zero tolerance for bad energy, drama, disrespect, and bullshit.

As the turbo-lift rocketed upward, Space Nick hefted two empty blasters like hammers and waited for the #onslaught — all the while wincing at ABBA’s “S.O.S.” blaring from the intergalactic Muzak speakers. Ding!
