Tinfoil heart


Dear Flame,

Did you think
it
was smart?

To paint your
Sacred
Angel Name,

across my
the surface
of my Tin
Foil HearT!

Then try to
put
The Blame

upon those
Shadows in me
DaRk!

he woke to the scent

he woke to the scent.
+++++++++++++

he woke to the scent
of freshly slaughtered
dreams;

head spinning in awkward
angles against the
backdrop of his frame.

is there a
cure for all these screams!?

(or external cause to
blame?)

+

the mirror is not
an
honest source of
reflection;

it is a sycophant
relaying what you
hope to see.

while
pushing you in
the
wrong direction!!


(corrupting most
of memory.)

+

was it always a
cluster-fuck
like this?
(he wonders.)

chaos courting a
facade of  tranquility?;

fables promising
endless bliss!!

(in exchange for
liberty.)

+

he goes to sleep
with the promise of
nightmares;

head stuffed with
haunted
shadow-stones,

which once heard
the
Harmony of The
Spheres!!!

(but became a closet
full of bones.)

a world within a world

a world within a world.
++++++++++++++

its a world within a
world,
creating new worlds
that 
will likely repeat shit
even
when eternity has
lost
it's sense of
being!
+
eh,

no man,
its a
hamster ball
full
of

Brains going
in
whatever backforward
fashion

you so choose.

( or
they
choose for you.)

+

i doubt that.

theres been a 
break in the bell.

it tolls for 
itself now.

(and never hears
its instructions not
to self destruct.)

bang! bang! bang!

(or flip the broken record,
and play whats on the Otherside.)

j.s.h.

during the construction of this verse

during the
construction of
this verse...
+++++++++++++

No feelings
were
Hurt during
the
Construction
of
This verse.

Just kidding!

Everyone
cried
Themselves to
Death.

(Then Laughed
Ironically 
from
Their Hearse.)

+

I've come
a
long way

(from
Nowhere)

to
get back to
The
Somewhere

I
was
at.

Where
Your Smile
Remained

My
Yesterday.

and
i wasn't madder
than
a fucking
Hatter!

(without his
sanity-hat.)

+

shit...

just Look
away

love,

before its too
late!

these robots
aren't so great
at hugs,

and
destroy the
Humans

They create!!

(because our
blood to them
is drugs.)

+

No souls were
lost during the
construction of
this verse;

just kidding...
Mine Was!!!


(but i only
cry now from
my hearse.)

j.stephen.h.

(with a bit of
help from my
imaginary frienemies.)

Secret rainbows

Secret rainbows.
++++++++++++

Some days i could chew
The stars from the sky,
And spit em back into 
The Face
Of my Colorless Existence.

But
Then secret rainbows
like YOU come along.

(and make the storm's
Of Life seem
Worth It.)

J.s.h.

A temporary reliance upon the dark

if you must
Temporarily
Rely
upon the dark,
do what you
must.

But no
Light
wandering
through
the dark
can ever be
Touched by
shadows.

(It
kisses them
on its own
Bright terms.)
