The presidential deity,
He promised us armistice,
But wrote fear and comfort,
In his totalitarian rulebook.

Poete maudit

winter walks a vintage pale, leading Calvary to the Golgotha’s golden high beam seized in a heavy veil of aromas numberless upon the sunrise, the luxurious whisper of life, whose yellow air blinds the snow eternally, to walk as winter as one is to die for the disorder of poetry, ah!– “Do not fear!” its winds once told me when it rippled in and out my window, as is to whistle through a cigarette’s rim; allowing paranoia to lift up the wall and fold itself around the mind, like ash trays for the soul, or hearts eroded by the wind: exhaling empires out of emptiness — is that not a mind at work?

social anxiety.

i'm sorry, but we can't talk. not now, not ever. because i may say something i'll regret later. because i may make you feel very uncomfortable. because i may just stop breathing for the rest of the day. because i may upset you and you'll run away forever. i hope you understand i'm only doing this for your own good. it's not really for me. i can just feel it. and it's not good. my throat tenses up. my head throbs around. my fingertips stop feeling. i'll stop wishing i were here and start wishing i were in the ground. six and a half feet under would be much better than speaking out loud. silence escapes my lips as

Painfully shy they call me and they are right it is painful but something about the label doesn't feel right I have a voice but I. Can. Not. Speak.

Social Anxiety

I was sitting in my room again The lights were off and the curtains closed But the moon still hadn't shown up yet Just sitting in my underwear My head against the radiator Thinking about those "friends" of mine What were they doing and were they thinking of me? Didn't matter, it's not like I'll have the confidence to go out again It's only the alcohol that made me smile and say small quiet words Only the alcohol that stopped me crumbling Pathetic My ability to socially interact with others Relies solely on rum and vodka Funny I said I'd never drink Doesn't matter, it'll only be a few more weeks, or was it months? Until I could

The Bus Stop Dialogues

I. A young man at the bus stop turns to me and softly asks "Why aren't you wearing shoes?" He taps the faded leather of his suedo-skin and his eyes smile in a gentle lilt before his mouth does. I tell him that I like to feel the earth breathe. That textures keep my mind alive and ticking like a clock. I tell him that I'm trying to grow roots so my pale limbs can twist into a tree (the way L and I talked about it in therapy). I tell him that my soul is lonely and the ground is the only thing that's always there. I tell him that bare skin is sensitive and stroking it with every (twelfth) step is a soothing form of self-care

Schizophrenia

Voices whisper in your ear; Sweetest nothings, greatest fears. All your life your friend is there, Waiting with a tale to share. Threats are blown into the air, Ever present, meant to scare. Someone tails your every move; A hidden fiend, free to rove. Disembodied voices say: Never dare to disobey. Your friend arrives with a grin, A plan in mind, a great sin. Trembling grips your paling hand. Someone whispers their command. Terrified, you call to me, Hoping I can set you free. But as you point out your friend, Wishing that this all would end, My answer renews your fear: I see no one standing there.

Schizophrenia

Holding on to a thought has always been... difficult for me. They're so rarely interesting enough to hold my attention for more than a few seconds. Quite often, I'll tune out what someone is saying because something they said sparks a thought which leads to another thought which leads to another thought... No, I don't get distracted by shiny objects. I'm a human, not a magpie. I never really cared that I wasn't listening to what people were saying. My thoughts, as cascading as they are, were always more interesting than they were. Eventually, I did away with people entirely, living in my own stream of consciousness. Even now, it is difficul
