When You Cried...

She skips around work in a whirl
As demands slowly crush her
She flits like a lost leaf in a storm;
In battering city winds, suffers

And unlike before when she could find
The heaven in him, her one divine
He's gone and she is lost
Wind-blown and wind tossed,
To the coldness and hurt
The immortal left for her.
And once she would've prayed
To the one who should have stayed

Now her prayers and heart drop like lead
As she walks homeward bound instead;
Lost in the hell of uncertain dread 
Knowing full well her gods are dead

My thoughts right now are:
I live on a spinning ball in the middle of space, composed of corrosive gasses and solvent liquids, hurtling at breakneck speeds around a giant firebomb in an otherwise perfectly infinite, soul-crushing void.
My only question is:
Who on earth thought this would work?

Time Moved One

 Hickory
*Diggory*
 Dock
 The lonely
 Grandfather
 Clock
 The clock
 Struck one
 The Clock's
 Chime's swung
 And it's a
 Hickory,
 Heart-stopping
 Shock

It's a metaphor, okay?

I stare through him
Trying to smile,
Pretending that
I'm brave
I stare on
A statue in my winter garden
A stone heart beating
In a living grave
I don't cry
Silly, human,
Statues don't cry
Or green moss like grass
Grows in the marble cracks
And we will surely die

I Demand Equality for All!

I've really been watching the gay rights stuff and the transexual rights stuff, and the rallies and the speeches and whatnot:
It had me worried for a while, like, am I gay? Am I bi? Do I identify as a female?
Then it hit me:
I'm slutty.
...
So where the fuck is my parade?

Never Let Me Go

Here's something

That looks like poetry:

Sigh with me, 

I'm lonely

Dance with me 

Under a snowy moon

Sing when it's 

Just me and you

And when we've turned 

The lights down low

Never, never, 

Never let me go...

Strangeness and Charm

Strange:

Like the atoms the bind us

Hold onto me

Charm:

I'm not the willing

Lover you seek

Strange,

To think I'm here right now

Not alone and free

Charm,

Hardened heart opened

Open up me

Strange

Like a tiger with hunting bright stripes

Charm

Like a peacock, purple-blue lights

Strange

To see I'm letting you in

Charm

Me into some bedroom sins
