That's quite the compliment up2us, any coffee is good coffee in my world!

lol, but I love the tearjerkers! I'm thrilled that you enjoyed it

Thanks Leigh, that's very sweet and much appreciated. I know my writings an acquired taste!

lol I wish I could write some tearjerkingly beautiful love poem
never seems to work out though
thanks for the read

So true, it's a trait that often sits on the sidelines because these days, there doesn't seem to be a lot of value seen in it.

The throne of thorns is coming
spun of sun and silk
castrating Neptune's bones
from breeding blood and filth

All my forgotten names
ancient serpents in my soul
perforated prophecies
an abortion lost in utero

Invoking all your saints
a poetic malady
blinded by the Fate's
and their myopic prophecy

A centaur's snare of chaos
the Iliad engulfing me
drunk on the blood of Mars
now war is all I see

Launching my confession
a full frontal assault
of grandiose repentance
freeing me from fault

Suffering in soulful screams
Reality a lucid dream

Clawing at my jaw
this labyrinth of lies
hunting down the minotaur
a dragon in disguise

Lathered in her web
Medusa's bearing down
in paralytic stone
my tongue comes unwound

Milking the womb of madness
a masochistic reverie
my soul committed suicide
now my mind is haunting me

*I should have probably included this warning after my first submission, but my poetry is a raw reflection of stereotypes and hypocrisy, with a prevalent religious undertone. It's angry and paradoxical, I hope no one's offended.*

I feel like humility is a lost art, sometimes we all need to be knocked down a peg or two. Thank you for the read and comment

You're too sweet . Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you! I'm happy to be here

I am a sentient being
born and bred of divinity
free from deluded dreams
of transient superiority

my soul is a napalm bomb
riding the wave
the cosmic strain
of Shakti's astral plane
raping your brain
with pious shame
orchestrating symphonies of pain
self invoked
a culture choked
by their own venom
as dictated by the senate

we are the instruments of our own demise
and suffering breeds within the lies
of subjugation
purification
while we perpetuate a paradigm of lives
separated by the differences seen through our eyes
sexuality, religion, race and gender
of our culture got me going on a bender

only the false self will try to label lives
but flesh and blood can't be categorized
raise your cerebral hemisphere
to another level free from fear

the prana frequency flows with ease
aboloshing the energy of our disease
this blind hatred a preconceived form of salvation
come judgment day ascends the inception of your damnation

self grandeur
it's necrotic
blatantly toxic
because an impotent and fractured mental frame
is insane
too blind to see
that I'm exposing the hypocrisy
of grandiose self perceived
omnipotence bought without a fee

the sacrament of your bigotry
dissolved to pieces
smashed to ashes
so apathetic to inequality
it's sacreligious but their blind to see
the effect of catatonic passivity

it's ripping the rope
from which you choke
baring your bones
and eating your soul

apparently
you all believe
to have found God in "me"
so you're designing reality
based on biases born to set you free
from bearing witness to your own shortcomings
can you see your sin?
cause that's what I'm drowning in

the macrocosm within your frame
must have imploded and deceased your brain
to believe your womb birthed the temple beneath our feet
and burning brim in flawless grace
blessed our souls to feast

the self righteous stand
raising pious hands
on the backbones of our fellow man
the judge rides in
on a wave of death and sin
eating the wise
too proud to perceive their own demise

Cloaked in my snow bed
under a blanket of stars
reflecting our love lines
through life's ceremonial scars

You've painted your memory
and saturated my soul
with your spectrum of wisdom
and prophecies left untold

Together we've drawn our altar on land
bent our heads to the heavens
held God in our hands
and bedded with flowers
just as the weeping willow tree
so have we grown roots
in the arms of the sea

We've spoken to tree nymphs
and danced with the rain
screamed alongside the thunder
while she's lamented in vain

Our communion with nature
rituals blending in part
our cherished laugh lines
in the folds of each others hearts

I've spilled my tears at your feet
sorrow sung like biblical psalms
and just like a martyr
you've held my despair in your palms

Cultivated the fire of my faith
and cradled my hope
philosophies fall from your lips
easily spoke

I carry you always
your teachings play like a song
my cerebral architecture will cradle your memory
long after you're gone

So when heaven hearkens for you
the entrails of your song
and bends it's bows to your roots
your memory carries on
because together we've blended two lives intertwined
a memorial of friendship
familial love married with time
