These are words in a format that I am told is a creative outlet.

Kseeyalater

Hero as an adjective

Save the world boy
But there are stains on your cape
And your boots have holes in the soles

Talk so much your throat
Is sandpaper but you ain't no
Difference maker. Better go grab a water

Sew and glue tape and gum
Whatever it takes to hold the seams
May work a for minute, but this isn't saving dreams

Save the world boy
But your gut is hanging over your belt
And your hairline is already retreating.

This is a poem.

Kseeyalater

Matinee

Your restoration,
Has an undertone
Of desperation.

You cry up to heaven
About the treatment, you
Think you have been getting,

But fair is a food critique,
Not a status guarantee.
So you should watch what you seek.

The world it blooms bright and then dies,
Far more than once to ancient eyes
maybe just grab your coat and go.

Hi again. Still tired. Have a poem. This one is based on a fish, but probably has a deeper meaning. I am sure about the fish part.

Piranha

Razor rows
Sharp, tiny precision
It's not the rip and tear
It's the first nibble
The one that makes you
React and jump

The nibble
Not blatant and mindless violence
Pre meditated. Targeted. A soft attack
Testing reactions, defenses,
You could almost let it pass
If it were just one.
Instead of just the first one.

Hi. I am tired. Have this poem.
Kluvyoubye

Antagonist

Words go by
Haunting me or
Haunted by me
A shadow on the sidewalk
A spectre in the doorway
'do you hear yourself?'
Tin sounding and small
'that was the best option?'
Dripping disdain again
The story point of view
Isn't so different
When the antagonist is
Agreed upon.

Shadows of the past
crowd my days—
spectres in my kitchen,
ghosts next to me
on the bus,
phantoms walking
my daydreams.

What they seek
I don't know
but I don't trust
their silent footsteps.

I smile through them,
hoping they don't
see through me
so easily.

Welcome to
the opium pageant,
eyes are vacant sockets,
#insomnia exchanged
for infinite dreaming,
and addiction
brings you to your #knees,
living in a world
you always have to escape

No prompt, just how I am feeling in a messy overly free verse rambling poem, because that is how I #write now 😁

Being Anti-fascist isn't an insult by the way. It isn't a bad thing.
