    Colours

    Please note, British spelling is retained.

    I am lost
    in this vast village
    where no one
    knows anyone.

    Where differences
    both good and evil
    are erased
    and monotony celebrated.

    There are no
    more distinct colours,
    they all
    have been blended

    To produce
    sickening shades of greys.
    Where has
    the rainbow gone?

    The melting pot
    is old and cracked and
    the fire
    dances in staccato.

    We are
    Frankenstein.
    We hack, carve
    out different colours

    To adorn
    ourselves with it,
    to cover
    our own true colour.

    And when we
    no longer remember
    our true colours,
    Uniqueness dives into the pot.

    Falling into the melting pot,
    Boiling with the brew of humankind,
    Where the colours,
    Sizzles, pops and burst with pungent
    Smells
    Of acrid smokes,
    Like an art room’s lingering smell of sweat.
    Lost in a maelstrom,
    Losing our colours,
    Becoming
    No one.
    My name is Asinius Commodus, son of the Eagle.

    Valonquisher


    My postulate abtrusion of the meek I warded
    My Valonquisher never knowing her true discernment
    Though on occasion I look remotely insidious
    The nature of the beast beckons me to delve deeper
    For you alone are none other if so you wish
    my keeper

    My Valonquisher I love you in my brittle heart
    desires undaunted by this menial task
    The algorithm to solving this enigma
    Shadows must crank at the machine tirelessly
    For want or none of what I can give

    Each line a consternation for which is solved
    by entering the abysmal umbra of my soul
    Three little words of such meaning
    The Insignifcant Lauded You
    My Valonquisher I kiss your lips

    And when you are cognizant I suppose I should explain
    These three stanzas are nothing more than a game
    For what I'm really trying to say;
    Is that you bear the torch that lights my soul
    You have capitulated the darkness that I feared would take me
    Have given reason for a man reserved to his quietus
    To be pertinent to write to live and to love
    You are my Valonquisher
    You are my beloved.

    Am I Evil?

    Am I here? Am I evil?
    Broken darkness, caring not
    When my world comes crashing down
    And I close my ears to cover the sound
    Nothing is real, nothing is here for me

    When the anger and rage is all that I feel
    Trembling with a gun my hand seems so unreal
    And there she is, by my side, the one I knew
    When I died, caring not, pull the trigger
    And kill my thoughts
    Am I here? Am I a sinner?
    Nothing is real.
    And am I evil?

    Drowning in spirits one last time
    Huddled in the corner brooding my demise
    This life forgotten her beauty is gone
    Her black hair blowing gently in the wind
    Her amber eyes looking into mine
    There she was with one I knew
    Malevolence coming and there it grew

    Pace about one last time
    In my hell, brooding my demise
    This life forgotten her beauty is gone
    When I grasped my gun and rage begot
    Crying softly in my dreams
    And waking up to agony
    Am I here? Am I sinner?
    Nothing seems real.
    And am I evil?

    Laughing hysteria takes me back
    Anger turned giddish from this soul I lack
    Drowning in spirits one last time
    Crying in the bottle, brooding my demise
    When I see her eyes the rage turns blind
    Cannot think when I see the man by her side
    This life forgotten her beauty is gone
    When I took my gun and filled the clip
    Say as they do, and so I speak
    My life is over and I care not
    Am I here? Am I sinner?
    Nothing seems real.
    And am I evil?

    Her amber eyes staring into mine
    As I chase her down and see my demise
    She runs so fast I cannot see
    But like the wolves I find my prey
    Drowning in Spirits one last time
    When I see her eyes the rage turns blind
    This life Forgotten her beauty is gone
    When I smash my gun into her jaw
    Knocking her down see the fear in her eyes
    Feel the hysteria, feeling blind
    Point the gun at her temple, pull the trigger
    And bathe in her blood, this soul has become mine
    Feel the lust down so deep, wanting more
    Wanting him
    Am I here? Am I sinner?
    Nothing seems real.
    And am I evil?

    There he is, staggering out of a bar
    Giving him a helping hand into the dark
    Pull him back into alleyway
    Cut him open and taste his blood
    Chocking back on all the tears
    Feeling happy my demon fears
    Taste his blood, ease the hysteria
    Hear the sirens, here the screams
    Running off into the wild, my mind needs more
    My mind needs me.
    Am I here? Am I sinner?
    Nothing seems real.
    And am I evil?

    Pacing back and forth in my room
    Drowning in Spirits one last time
    Crying in the bottle, brooding my demise
    This life forgotten her beauty is gone
    Gun in hand lusting for blood
    One last time, the victim is me
    Pull the trigger, and end this hell I see
    Am I here? Am I dead?
    Everything seems so unreal.
    And am I evil?

    Black Dragon

    Devils luring little children down the path of so called righteousness
    We Walk, We Toil, We Die, We churn and boil
    Skipping stones across an ash brick path whilst the sky breathes acid green
    Black Wings astride the horizon a distant glamour
    And Jesus grins menacingly, hanging loosely from his crucifixion
    This world come and gone, Cities burn, Empires Fall
    And the Crows feast on the hollowed eyes of the dead, killing fields
    One more dead to starvation, locusts pouring forth from his mouth
    Lust for wealth, Lust For Greed, We lust in our gluttony
    Acid seathing from white tipped daggers
    Eyes ablazoned black with dread and hatred
    The damned turned their heads away, one by one, flickering shadows
    Holy Spirits, doom on high, no reproach, no place to hide
    Cello's playing softly in the midnight air
    Lucifer grasps Jahovah's hand tears falling from his eyes
    What have I done? where have I gone? The existence to end I long
    My Brother, my son, you have fallen from me, I love you but I must hate you
    The Fires burn deep, the forges black from overuse
    We are at war, and there shall never be at peace
    The Black Dragon kills without mercy, children gnashing between his teeth
    No God No Demon can stop this wrath
    Black Dragon with soulless contempt, without heart, without change
    May this war end, but the weakness of humanity prolongs it's life
    Seething tears of acid choking down it's throat
    kill again, kill once more, kill now, kill forevermore
    Life, expendable never again, never dependable
    The lights fade and dawn is gloom
    Hordes of Black Dragons spawn from wicked mouths
    Tears from my eyes as I kill anew.

    I Of Ruin

    I of Ruin or so whisper candidly about
    on high they listen with ill confession
    whilst sin and plague wrack the coffers
    I of Ruin hath steadily undermined their tribunals
    seeking the death of one lost so near
    rapturing around their stone canvas
    with no portrayal of the slightest indescretion
    but to be with the graven bodies of the damned
    though to I it may seem callous and bored
    I of Ruin latches to many undeemable figures
    of which cannot be the anathema of paucity
    so to the sky of glistening fire devout
    it pleases the vagrants of turmoil and treachery
    when ashes cover mostly trials and tribulations
    the memory is all but washed upon affrontal actions
    that I of Ruin has so eagerly brought to all

    I of Ruin disgraced us to this world of misery
    a champion betrayed of thought or notion
    has taken it for only himself to rule in wickedness
    our angel has dilapidated into agony for which he shares
    when the wars were fought to end this all
    looking back the admiration of my frivolous efforts
    had all but been in vain, for my hopes were crushed
    and fears realized as I of Ruin so eagerly told us
    all but it ends soon and bleary eyes turn from the dead sky
    should have known as much I of Ruin watches inside me

    Call To me Commadore

    They call to me commadore
    Why have we purged them to your rage
    when the sea foam rises to hull of the decks
    splintering and moaning as the tides do rise
    I have only myself to blame
    Servant. slave. Whipping boy that I am.
    Yet in my dreams I feel their hands
    gouge my eyes and warm tears of blood
    fill my mouth and choke what life remains
    their white hands are truely restless
    and why am I not to blame?

    As well as you commadore
    shouting and cursing whilst drinking their spirits
    Their strength seems as angry as yours
    while you beat me until you are weary
    and drunk on their blood
    in the night I hear your cries and I do feel shame
    from my scars I know why they call to me
    I have wronged them so.

    My eyes awaken to the blackness of the sea
    wrought with such plague that sweat pours from bone
    I hear your foot steps long and mournful
    the white steel clammering at your backstep
    The demons running their fingers along the edge
    As you have unsheathed it and brought it to my neck
    I have only the indecency to lower my head as such
    I cry as a welp and the whiteness of the steel flickers closer

    Call to me Commadore.

    It was a rainy day
    When I stood at the bay

    At the glamouros lights of the other side I stared
    Now I see what a bad call I made

    Travelling from the world of birds and green
    To a world pale where nothing but lights gleam

    Travelling from childhood filled with white dreams
    To a black world where certain needs is all we please

    Woe me for taking that decision
    For more stalling was my mission

    I remember wondering how would I go unharmed through it; that ocean
    Like the thing that lost it's way and was found on the other side; that cushion

    If you understand a thing, I'm stunned, but well, it has a story in it, but it isn't finished.
    "Cry, the beloved country, for the unborn child that is the inheritor of our fear. Let him not love the earth too deeply. Let him not laugh too gladly when the water runs through his fingers, nor stand too silent when the setting sun makes red the veld with fire. Let him not be moved when the birds of his land are singing, nor give too much of his heart to a mountain or a valley. For fear will rob him of all if he gives too much."

    Cry, the Beloved Country by Alan Paton.

    Well I haven't written any poems for ages and never in ENglish but I'm gonna give it a try anyway.

    A black shadow lies in the corner of the room,
    so vague, so blurry. But it is there.
    Made the whole place gloom.
    So still it sits there, oh so still.
    The sight alone would make you shrill.

    A dark shadow lies in the corner of the room,
    a soul so empty, vacant. But it is there.
    And forever it will be there. Forever it will moon.
    And forever I will sit there staring, gazing.
    My shadow in the corner facing.

    EDit: just noticed but it fits my avatar just perfect.

    Shadows are inspiring, right?

    The world is a nice place they say.
    How could it be, how?
    If even a sun ray,
    drops such a deep shadow.

    EDit: Haven't written poems for a verry long time but apparently I'm in the mood today:

    Do you hear it,
    when you walk trough the streets?
    Do you sense it,
    when you see the tall buildings?
    Do you scent it,
    when the rain poors down?
    Do you understand,
    why the rain falls on you?
    And everybody has umbrellas
    or shelters in tall company buildings.
    Why they do not hear the rain's song?
    Why they don't smell it
    nor feel the raindrop's slowly traveling,
    down your face, gently caressing your nose,
    then jump and land softly on your coat.

    Do you understand,
    that those grey men in their suits,
    with their heavy suitcases,
    with their unknown families,
    with their vacant eyes,
    vacant dreams,
    vacant lives,
    vacant souls,
    vacant spirits,
    those vacant men,
    men,
    are but drops of water,
    falling from out the skies,
    wich do not land on your head or arms,
    do not caress, do not wander down your body,
    but fall apart on the hard umbrellas of
    grey men with vacant suits?

    EDit2: spelling.

    Thanks but I noticed it is still full of errors. Sigh. That's what you get when you let it burst out of your mind.

    EDit:
    This time a happier poem:

    spring

    The trees are dancing,
    the birds are rejoicing,
    while the man who looks trough the window,
    when the grass plays in the wind
    and the dew drops smile to the sun,
    is shining and jubilating.
    Cause this morning the first leaves have
    awoken.

    Okay enough happyness. For a whole week.

    Eyes.


    Eyes can tell long endless stories,
    eyes can even catch your dreams.

    Tough never look into the eyes you love,
    they will catch you, fill you,
    warm you, make you.
    One day,
    perhaps tomorrow, perhaps after years,
    but they will,
    yes they will,

    scream,

    so hard, oh so hard,
    your eyes will not speak ever again.

    EDit2: I hate spelling, lol.
