clouds of sanguinary distress

I see it coming
in my dreams

Glorious and bloody
or so it seems

How do thoughts
turn so grim?

Is it my depression
that builds this whim?

I see it coming
in my dreams

The scissors cutting
Fate at its seams

With each kill bring
honor to thy name

And upon my death
glory and fame

NaPoWriMo #3

I stand as a brave knight
before the fearsome dragon

I softly ask her number;
No response happens

My mood much colder
than the shake she served

Before I leave, a tug on my shirt
Shyly she hands over her note

The sun hits my face out the door
I feel the shadow lift; sorrow fades to glee

NaPoWriMo #3

I'll finish tomorrow
and hide my sorrow
for my procrastination

Self motivation;
Such a hard occupation
Fighting unproductive delay

I know I am able, but may
I, in my defense, say
Procrastinator unite on the morrow

NaPoWriMo #2

Fear grips me by the throat
As I ordered my root beer float
Bonny girl behind the counter
Scared to ask her number in this encounter

She seemed quick to judge
I, a mountain of terror, did not budge
The girl sweeps past me with a wink
I'll find the courage to ask her; I think

NaPoWriMo 04.04.08

That frigid night as we lay
Beholding the encompassing sky
You begin to wonder why
I have brought you to this bay

Cuddling under the warm blanket
Enjoying our new found love
You wonder, like me, if we'll make it
I know as true as the flight of the turtle dove

I see the stars like you
Lighting even the darkest places too

For the Emperor

Unwavering faith
In the Emperor

His enemies I rend
As his Ereberor

Much blood have I
Spilled in his name

Many bodies torn asunder
A champion's won fame

Last words I hear
When I cannot mend

Only in death
Does duty end

Call to Arms

Call to arms
Defend with pride
My dear country

I eagerly enlist
Rigorously I train
They happily ship

Over there
Here a war
A battle yet again

My country's honor
I must protect
Raise the banner high

Into the battle
I carry my blade
Ready to strike

Like a rich man's chattel
Where there is no shade
Helos hover like the shrike

Hornets slap the dune
My fort, I dig
Deep in the self filling sand

My helmet stifles
The rifle exposed,
Ablaze my hand

What a war
What a place
Here; Over there

Another move
Another hole
Dig in, ready? No

One more bomb
A man left dead
His body in shreds

No sleep tonight
The stars too bright
To fray my fright

Time to march
The daily routine
The endless desert

Shock waves rip through
Our ranks; make due
Bury them in the sand

To serve and protect
To fight and die
While media prattles

This time it was me
I had no chance to see
Only hearing a rifle's rattle

My body fell limp
The sand my shroud
A shallow grave

Send word to my mother
I died in another
War my country waged

A shot at a sonnet

My heart belongs to Fanny

If there was a fairer lass I had seen,
She could not compare to my daft Fanny;
My other half, completed, she has been,
Her gift for arousal is uncanny!

Always one for cheerful smiles, with glee
She bore afree mind, for which used oft
On me to bring pleasure eternity
Her cries louder than the full choir loft

Alas comes end to our fun, she onto
Another must she run, her job is done
She is my joy fulfilled with adieu
With grace she will succeed in the long run,

To haunt my every sparked fantasy!
Her loins are my cage; I have lost the key!

Elegy for my Great Grandmother

All things die
In passage
Of much time

Bear no grief
Shed not tears
Raise your head

Open mind
Heart agape
Ears unshut

I begin
This, a sad
Elegy

Mourn not death
Praise only
Deathless deeds

Let these feats
Warm our souls
In ill times

Remember
Nostalgia
Thy passed kin

Julia

I

Under my nose
The fair maiden
Sat gleefully
In pious daze

Oh, Julia!
My heart lept out
Oh, Julia!
Venus did shout

I longed to see
What we could have
I ached to meet
My twin once halved

She says she fell
For me from high
I fell also
I went awry

In my crazy
Awkward ways to
Attract her, I
Succeeded not

It was not true
I was too rich
In a wealth- wealth
of emotion

Like an overcast
A shadow overwhelmed
Her still shown grace
Her friends think ill

Do no listen!
Their young mouths spurt
Words immature
Of him, the me!

She listened, sad
Really for me
I fell hard, yes
The fly hits rock

Ignore me, go!
We could have had
Our sadness shed
You as my light

Depression sets
Its fangs dig deep
Another bout
Sadness thy game

My pen sorrow
My paper soul
I begin it
Tragedy's name

To Julia
My almost, dear
Bonny and apt
Wicked and sly

Can you not see
It was meant to
Be? So I plead
Repent to thee

A wall of steel
Held up by tears
We hide ourselves
Out of these fears

In truth be told
We are players
On the sad stage
Called passing life

We act the part
Only to deceive
All who wish to
See behind mask

I fade out now
Go to my dark,
gloomy corner
Cosmos collapse

II

The sudden bang
My thoughts expand
Waves of reason
Wash away mourn

Realize I live
Sill on in life
Wounds heal and teach
Lessons through strife

Licked and splinted
Scars always fade
Just allow time
Good things are made

I served my time
In asylum
Of quick, just love
She slips my mind

I move on now
To a better,
Perhaps, chaff life
A road hard won

2.05.2008

Sweet nothings

Just as day breaks
Unshut your bonny eyes
Lift up your heart
Inhale the morning light
And listen to me say

Smile you are beautiful
Madness is thy name
In you I confide
Trust and my amour
Here in a bonkers way

2.04.2008

Back from the Brink

Can this be
Happiness I see
To Venus I plea
Please let it be she

She brings much glee
I feel on a spree
Running with thee
I am free

1.30.2008

A thought

If you keep hanging on you will never fall into something else

On the Brink

I am drowning
Soup of peas
The world their pod
 
Grueling efforts
Rewarded in no light
Taken in great glee
 
Exhausted I spin
In confusion I fade
Dress me I am blue
 
Take a breath
It comes too short
I writhe in pain
 
Please end this
I cannot take more
I fall in saguine dreams

Build these fantasies

Build these fantasies
The strive of fame
Become the reality
Or fall in shame


"Imagination is a monastery, and I am its monk" - John Keats

Untimely End

Many have I killed
Bards sing my tale
Few as skilled
Always I prevail

Meet my cessation
Beneath this face
Odin! He demands an explanation
Am I a disgrace?

Odin! His eye not deem me weak
Puzzling is my unbroken chain mail
Look! The battle on the peak
Respond with a chuckle "I fell"

1.15.2008

Ascension

Doth not bring me death
I will only rise
Be welcomed to Glory's halls
Winged maidens sound their horns
My time is not now
Many more must my blade fell

Hitherto many have fallen
Fallen but not dead
Their deeds scorch the land
As fire across a sheep's coat
Raise a stein to our brethren
Who have already ascended

Carry on

Death comes one day
It is the only certainty
For all whom die
Only the brave live again

Forever our deeds reign
Into enternity we make merry
Waiting in that great hall
Until Ragnorok calls

On that day
Odin bid us fall, call glory!
By his side we stand
To meet our final end

1.14.2008

Uncanny aint it?

The stars ablaze
Madness dims them
They fade
Suffer not to live in whim

1.12.2008

mhmm

Its odd that people who chill with me for the first time all say the same thing

"Corey, I am not going to lie, I thought you were a loser, but you're actually really [insert synonym for cool here]"

You thought I was no one
You will get out done
I have just begun
And you have none
You are just a pun
While I am the new bull run

So stop watching reruns

Hang out with the new ones
My crew and the funs
We have with loaded guns
I have three full tons
Of fucking hamburger buns

Will you buy one
