Monstrous Tension She is so monstrous in the half-moonlight Glowering, pock-marked, belly swollen from the latest gruesome feast. But is it the#moonwhich makes this monster snarl? Or is it the ignorance and unkindness of others Which perpetuates the myth and then causes the reality? Was this hideous creature once a fluffy mammal, and a herbivore at that? Bitten too many times by pup and mate, She seeks peace but finds only anger and hatred. She is so monstrous in the half-moonlight.

Jealousy I look around and all I see Are jealous green eyes looking at me. Step into my shoes for a week or two: Live as I live, and do as I do. Are you sure you want to be just like me?

Sweet 16? Sweet sixteen my fucking arse, Your #life is turning into a bloody farce. You've broken our hearts with your moods and lies, But most of all with your cold goodbyes. You bully your 'loved ones', always on the attack, Then come looking for money, come creeping back. How much you've hurt us you'll never know, But you're dealing your own #life a fatal blow: Please stop hurting yourself, because that's what's killing me.

Temptation Few things are more beautiful Than myself reflected in your eyes All imperfections eradicated, mine and yours. Thoughts, ideas, temptations fill my head, Buzzing like electrical currents, Or crickets on a hot and sultry summer night. And then you look away, and I am me again And you are you. Until the next time.

Superlative Beyond the limit of your capabilities, Lies a new world you never knew existed. But what does it cost, a journey to the edge of reason? Does every road have a toll, every path a pitfall? Nirvana is not around the next corner, But the lurking demon brings with him a prize, For the bravest traveller willing to look him in the eye.
