Needles
Twigs and bark
A dark call
From a far off place
A face
Or is it a void
Avoid it at all cost

The devil
Misbehaves
And causes mayhem
A void he

Spiders from Mars
And old guitars
Stars and cars
And whores in bars
Harmless

Sweet sixteen
And never been kissed
That was a long time ago
But there was a time
And it was sixteen
No kiss
No

Sixteen and a half
And there was the nice car
A drivers' license too
'69 Camaro
A driver
Go

Two years later
And there's the Vietnam War
And there's dead children
Raped children
You've killed
Kids

You come home
Barefoot and bewildered
The body withered
The mind tired
Want to die
So you
Die

Simpler times I miss
It's gotten God awful
Throw away the toys

Hello. I am a new writer to this here forum. I am very excited to start posting some work on here.

I don't have time now but I will soon. Some of you have written some great stuff. What happened to this Excitable Boy character? Seems like he was on a roll and then just fell off the face of the earth.

Well..gotta run. Peace!

Alone in a darkened room
Swallowed up in the gloom
Doomed to a life of pain of shame of blame
Black on black
Black on black
Needle to skin
Put the white light into the red vein
Just pour it
Whore

Lonesome in a damp tomb
Like back in mother's womb
Consumed by the pettiness of the pity party
Pretty pretty
Pretty pretty
Destined to sin
Doom brought on by the bottle again
Just pour it
More

My mind is drifting and I know why...I think about tears and sighs...so much pain inside and tired...should I sleep ?

My thoughts are shifting back and forth...stay the course...keep smiling and wearing the mask...should I disappear ?

My brain hurts from too much thinking...too much fear...blinking like a yellow light...should I stop ?

My skull is scarred and dented...some accidental and some intended...my head tells a story...should I burn the book ?

My shoulders carry a heavy load...and I grow old...and the world never slows...should I speed it up ?

My arms are muscular and vascular...able to carry a heavy burden...but certainly not forever...should I end it ?

My hands shake as I lie awake...thinking about all the bad that has ever happened...no happy endings...should I make myself feel better ?

I stare dazed and confused out the window
I see a tree that a noose would fit on nicely
A kichen chair and I could be there

My mind is tired from so much inner turmoil
Brought to a boil by another disrespectful hell scene
A bottle of pills with a bottle of Jim Beam

Should one be respectful when hanging oneself ?
I mean, should you wear a diaper ?
Does that tell your family that you cared ?

Then I decide all is okay
Tomorrow is a new day

I apologize if I gave anyone a scare
Though I appreciate the care

Sometimes I get lost and confused
Feel like I'm just being used

But it's all good for me
Besides, there's always Hawaii

I also have faith strong in what I believe
It wouldn't make sense to cause myself to leave

God bless everyone in this holiday season
Everything happens for a reason

my truest friends are renegades
sweet dark hearts in sightless acrobats
loud ghosts dancing down the windy plains
all tall forts lined across my mind
trails of flame against blue night
