| Observing Justin
I feel honoured by your silence
Although I know it won’t last long
I hear those gentle
Yet frustrated whispers
Flow in rhythm like a song
Pen resting idly on your book
As you battle with your thoughts
I see the scribbles
The torn out pages
No idea has your musing brought
Thoughts are raging eagerly flowing
To produce your work of art
But despite your willingness
To write this down
Your logic seems to want no part
Yet we both know this is temporary
Soon your words will flow relentless
Only too soon brother
You’ll be back on form
Making me feel like your apprentice

| Play on Words
Humidified thoughts evaporate slowly
So I hydrate my mind with liquid illusion
Vast are the waters my genius sails in
Producing the visions I fish from my head
Thoughts rage relentless confined to my sanity
Tearing at membranes and shredding my doubt
My cerebral is bruised, battered by concept
Though I’d rather be scarred…
…than have nothing to give
Moulding my aims from my putty ideas
Sculpting my dreams to flow with my tide
Dipping reflections in my shallow waters
Drenched by the waves that lap at my mind
As my notions cascade to form my endeavours
I am one with the person I view in my head
My acquired depth is deepened with wisdom
My bible is knowledge…
…my God is my mind

| Random Thoughts
I am fronted with a cryptic question
Now lodged within my brain’s congestion
Please be patient while I contemplate
Battle my thoughts as I cogitate
So many factors for me to purpose
I’ll be here hours I don’t dare suppose
It’s got me trying to intellectualise
Bizarre reflections I now visualise
Aiming to reason with my speculation
Getting nowhere with my calculation
From every angle I’ve deliberated
As I am quite sure you anticipated
Pray, what lead to this odd cognition?
Your mind is causing me suspicion
This query I would not have believed
Within your genius had been conceived
Prior to this problem you\'ve enquired
Your common sense was to be admired
Is there madness in your meditation?
You are off the wall by my estimation
This insane topic that you have surmise
Is far from healthy you must realise
I conclude with all things considered
No rational answer to be delivered
Mulled over thoroughly with regard
Abstract thought now presumably marred
Some things are better left unsaid
Like the sheer lunacy inside your head
So having observed your savoir faire
Let’s just pretend we were never there

| Scandalous
Yes! OK! Please change the subject
I am trying hard to just forget
That awful day back in the fall
Alas! I’m scarred with total recall
Even now I can feel the shame
People laugh as they say my name
Forever stained with humiliation
Oh dear God! What degradation
Save the world, they’re “Samantha who?”
Once disgraced the memory outlives you
I doubt I could be more mortified
Sincerely! Even if I really tried
The thought alone induces stress
How did I create such a dire mess?
It certainly was quite a woeful state
Damn! That cursed hand of fate
So all consuming is my dismay
I’ve considered adding it to my resume
I pray my offspring will not inherit
The sheer volume of my discredit
I can only hope that time will heal
The stigma demoting my appeal
Let me off this embarrassing ride
And try to mend my battered pride

| Scarlet Tears
These scarlet tears betray my pain
Liquid anguish stains my ashen face
As I stagger through the pouring rain
The wretched quarry in a savage chase
Longing for asylum inside our lair
Far away from these human beasts
My heart heaves that he won’t be there
Slain like a pig for their mortal feast
Though I\'d rather perish than go on alone
Never will a human strike me down
Instead I\'ll ascend and take his throne
Queen of the damned beneath his crown
All hear me now in this cursed province
For my unjust torment I\'ll make you answer
A nation will die for my vampire prince
I\'ll reap my revenge as nocturnal cancer

| Serenade Me
Like a drug I’m addicted your music pollutes me
So pour out your lyrics and drench me in sound
Through my veins sours your melody burning my core
And enticing my spirit to dance in the flames
Without effort it pulses through my vital fluids
Expanding the limit of my elaborate thought
Electronic demons pierce my eardrums
To stab at my brain with poignant screams
As sure as my blood flows relentlessly through me
Your songs have their passage direct to my soul
Injecting the poison that has finally claimed me
Your voice like my aura has surrounded me whole

| Shadow Dancer
I\'m a darkened figure, a secret sable shape
My only invitation was a left open gate
Observing from the shadows, these organised moves
Guests looking hypnotised from sweet harmonic grooves
They prance and they waltz, swing and they sway
Oblivious to the fact that I am only feet away
Barely a shaded vision or a vague outline
My wraith like appearance is scarcely defined
To the music they frolic, canter and spin
It\'s the audible yang to their gesturing yin
I elude them with ease as a dusky profile
Indistinct form with discretion and guile
"Would you care for a dance?" I hear him ask
She nods her approval then engages the task
Each twirl of her dress fans me with air
Their movements suggest they have notable flair
There followed a tango and then a spirited jig
Then both were succeeded by another shindig
In the shadows I stay as a nebulous being
Watching and wary with no body seeing
Now I feel it is time for me to depart
These rhythms still vivid as each beat of my heart
So I silently shuffle like a spectral semblance
To the open window that provided my entrance
Without a trace I dissolve into liquid midnight
An intangible body without discernible light
Completely unnoticed by the lookout guard
A sailing enigma through the darkened courtyard
I\'m safe once again out here in the wild
Smiling away like an excitable child
Why I take such risks I have no answer
I am drawn to the music as a shadow dancer

| Subconscious
I turned another corner
I faced another room
One more faint emotion
Fades off and into doom
I feel my pulse beat strongly
As I listen to my heart
Aware that from my body
My mind is miles apart
I venture into darkness
In this corner of my mind
The strangest thoughts reside here
Unpleasant, some unkind
I’m stunned my own subconscious
Is as powerful as this
Containing all my thoughts
And my every single wish
It’s odd the way our dreams
Absurd though they may be
Can bring us face to face
With the things we never see
Amid these barriers of sleep
Where our other lives reside
The world seems just as twisted
As a roller coaster ride

| Subliminal Echos
Eyes like an ocean
Drench me with purpose
While lost in the current
I drift on so calm
Your voice seems to penetrate
And speak to my soul
Tomorrow holds promise
Because I have you
My feelings run deep
Like subliminal echoes
Illusory angels sing on
In my head
I whisper your name
Like a personal prayer
And I pray that forever
I will always have you

| The Color of Concept
I\'ve become lost in creative suggestion
No definitive pattern exists here
Lines kitty corner chaotically
Shadows replace shape and light
Obscurity rides on a current
A tsunami of cryptic ideas
Dancing around as the barrel breaks
Smashing through all that is sane
Twisting and turning in turmoil
Releasing a radiant rainbow
Hypnotic colours assault me en masse
The fantasia\'s hurting my eyes
Yet I will not spurn this parade
This lucid medley of abundant tones
For these are the shades of my thoughts
The very essence of a vibrant mind
