I am a woman. I've been beaten, raped, robbed, and fucked over a million times. I've been high as a kite, drunk as a dog, and sober as a bird. I've prayed to God, Buddha, Mary, and just the walls. I've lied, cheated, fucked, and dealt drugs, all with a calm expression. I've been a whore, a mother, a faggot, and a saint. I've been everything you've been and everything you'll never me. I'm the world in a glass jar covered in fingerprints. I'm the reason you have food on the table and shoes on your feet. I've worked, paid, and been in debt. And the world still hasn't paid me back. I am a woman.

You see this part? This is the part where everything begins. This is the part where your little brain gets another wrinkle added to it. This is the part where you begin to understand this thing we call life. And you know what the conclusion is? Life fucking sucks. My chest tightens as my breath becomes quicker, trying to catch up with the speed of my heart. I hear the footsteps getting louder, closer. Sweat trickles down my back, soaking my shirt. Mariann will have a fit if I stain this. Its so ridiculous how I'm thinking of that right now - right now, when I'm under attack, right now, when my life could quiet possibly end, right now, when e

We were children - mere children, with tight curls and missing teeth. We took our small fingers and braided wild horses hair as they grazed on ever-green clover. When we finished, the horses thanked us with neck nuzzles and gentle kicks. As night fell, we gathered up blankets and chicken feathers, and settled beneath a black sky. "Quiet now", the trees whispered, "The sparrows are sleeping." When the sky exploded with stars, we jolted awake from our slumbers, like worn out soldiers at the sound of gun shots. "Anti-christ!" we yelled as we danced. Bears and foxes joined us, blood of new borns dripping from their smiling jaws. Country m

I was a boy, of around sixteen or so, with a simple life at a simple school in a simple town. Mostly, it all consisted of who threw the biggest parties, when Spring Break was, and where we were all going to college. For me, none of that really mattered - I had no social life, seeings as I was the classical geek character you see in those teen movies all the time. I had few friends, who weren't even really friends - they were just people who shared my love of Shakespeare and Greek culture. I liked keeping to myself though - it made reading and staying out of drama alot easier. I didn't look like the typical nerd - no black framed glasses, no e

There was a jealousy among its people, sweeping it up like sinking ships, taking on water at ungodly speeds. Jesus himself saw it, and said "Dear god, its a fucking tragedy". And it was, oh it was. The children, they carried guns in their schoolbags, and cocaine in their veins. The elders, they hid behind their screened in porches, keeping safe with their axes and booze. The teenagers, they stayed they same - driving too fast, talking too slow, and loving too much, or maybe not enough. Maybe if we had kept our eyes to the floor, and our mouths sealed shut, we wouldn't be in this mess. Our mothers always told us - "Keep to yoursel

I am in a kaleidoscope. Constantly moving, constantly changing Underneath the morning sunrise. Until god, or whoever he is, sits me down To sleep, to rest, to die. And when he sits me down, I hope you are there In your own little kaleidoscope Surrounded by ever-changing colors and shapes. Or maybe, you are the one, changing my kaleidoscope Sending my world into a whirlwind. I am in a fishbowl. Never changing, never moving Underneath the midnight moon. Until the devil, or whoever she is, brings me up To awake, to raise, to live. And when she brings me up, I hope you are there In your own little fish bowl Surrounded by never-ch

Its middle of the night, and I'm drunk as hell. I'm just calling to wish you well. How have you been? Hows your new 'squeeze'? Does she know about you and me? I know, I know, she's there. But baby, just act like you care. I've been thinking about you all night And all this booze won't make it right. I miss you like the sea misses the sun. If I could, I would just have some fun. Let loose, be free. But baby, you're too big a part of me. [chorus] I've tried so many times to replace you. But baby, I know one thing is true. There will never be anybody quiet like you. Yes, I know thats true. [/chorus] No, please, don't "Let you g

But don't you realize, I'm just as broken as you? I'm David. Let me smoke my cigarettes, Let me drink my tea. I won't bug you all that much, If you just leave me be. Baby, you're a fucking disease. You're a want, and a need. You make me need a cigarette, And I don't even smoke. I'm Eliza. Let me take my pills, Let me eat my candy. I'll always be a bother, Because you're the world to me.
