| Rage Poetry she watched him in agony,
a pulsing, throbbing, bastard of a vein
was visible on his forehead,
it was clogging his thought, his reason,
he was shouting, screaming at her,
she could only sob and moan on the floor,
spilling her tears on the tiles,
he could see the pain in her eyes,
echoed in the scar across her face,
and as he raised his hand to strike her,
he realised his addiction,
his... Sep 6, 2008 | 39 Hits |     | 7 comments | Read more... |

| Respectability Poetry you shut your mouth,
you shut your eyes,
you suffer in silence,
you make others suffer,
by your stupid escape,
to which you give a name,
the disease called respectability.

a thoughtless machine,
you imitate, follow, try to fit in.
you're swallowed into the rat race.
you become self-conscious,
you think of how to keep your face.
you... Sep 6, 2008 | 31 Hits |     | 4 comments | Read more... |
