Brace yourselves! I am a published poet! I kid you not! So if anyone calls me a f*cked-up c**t - stuff you! (Sorry about that - I'm just a bit excited =P)

You wanted it! You called for it! Streaked across the Olympics Opening Ceremony and ate protest hot dogs in demand for it! Plus I can't let Grace be weirder than me! Well.. it's up now... The Weird Dark and Moody Poetry Section! A great way to start the day. Contributions by others are welcome...

But before that, there are some important issues to be addressed... That's right! We're getting down to the nail-biting stuff here! But... Dang! There are just too many hot, burning issues to be addressed, such as the habitat of the mongoose/prarie dog and the proliferation of kitty-porn, but I've chosen probably the most relevant for youse to debate.

 

The Great Illusion

Resolute slumber hibernation terminates

The connection to

Truth

To you

Exploration seeks knowledge

Yet hunger is the truth of expectation

 

Loving without a conscience

Killing without a conscience

Memory has no conscience

 

                        Article Seven : Seven is a divine integer which cannot be divided by any other integer other than itself and One.

 

 

Significance is a measure of worth

Remember me for my tragedy

My self-esteem you balance

On the end of a hook

Dangle, dally, drop it

Life dispenses happiness like Russian roulette

 

Truth will never be found.

Solipsism is all the mind.

 

 

 

Melting

Punting integrity on placental afterbirths and

Cauldrons of cerebral off-cuts

Melting eyes and the mischievous grins of no consequence

Slathered mementoes of an prodigal life.

 

Gnawing society's sleeves at its seams 

The clocks bend space into a knot

The noose tightening

For a euthanasia to the decadent 

Choking the lost with a kiss

From the white horses.

 

Invincibility is an umbrella for the ignorant

But share the shame of fear

And the courage to admit cowardice

For who will then be the better man?

Than the oppressed or the resigned.

 

 

Butterflies

Who is the comforter of sleep

When in starry nights do the restless consciousness yield their minds

 

Where do they drain to?

Or captured in the net of infinity

Are they the substance if unwanted discards?

Festering away in the dark recesses of Never.

 

Matter, what can it be

when the nimble mind supplies what is not

cherished? But scorned as blasphemy is the 

produce of the philosophising damned.

 

I know that when my butterflies leave their nest 

In the cavern of my stomach

They will be blinded in the segments of limelight

and perish as they fade

Burning to shine as supernova zealots.

 

So I choose to cage them in my lair 

And keep solemn vigil and prayer without respite 

But I am no Daniel and I fear

The lions in me will not keep bay for the night

For me to return from slumber to find

my Lovelies gone, their golden butter 

Left to feed today's maggots lying in their wake.
