The infection starts to spread
The anger
The hate
No rest for the wicked
I can do that when I'm dead

I am a whole bag of special
Transparent Pirate
All the world Is a larp
Don't take everything so seriously
⚠️ 🏷️
Nothing is for you
I can't begin to tell you
How much this mentally hurts
I don't have time
I have to go back to work
Is everyone finished
Can I continue onward
Before my will begins to diminish
I hope you know
You're all being absurd
#poetry
I've been yelled at
Screamed at
Wrongfully accused
It's been one endless string
Of pure utterly ridiculous
Verbal abuse
I'm about to break
At my Wit's end
I've had it up to here
Everyone shut up
Don't talk to me
I clap back with a sneer
#poetry
Dear asshole
I hope this email finds you well
Tell your father his brother is dead
I don't even want to write to you
Because of all your drama
But it's required of me
No one said it had to be thoughtful
By the way
Your website is trash
Your grammar is off
Your spelling is atrocious
The UX hurts my soul and my eyes
And you're vulnerable 100 different ways
Good luck with that
I feel bad for your customers
At least
That's what I want to say
We go out
I watch you stuff your face
I sit back
And listen to all your complaints
Telling me everything you want
From me
From life
Because you're stuck in a rut
Ok calm down
This isn't how
I pictured this evening going
But somehow
I was already knowing
Anticipating
Expecting
It's my peace
You're rejecting
Put some more food in your mouth
It'll slow you down
Please stop talking
The conversation already went south
I just want to hurry up
And get the fuck out
I have other places to be
Other people's needs
All depending on me
You don't have to ask a dozen times
I'm fed up with this
With you
Even these rhymes
#poetry
I hang up the phone
I finish my work quickly
As much as I can
Drive my uncle home
Then leave to take a shower
Before I go out
There's still more to do
But it will have to wait now
Later I'll resume
Pick up go go go
A never ending nightmare
This point is so-low
#haiku
You go from pounding at my door
To showing up to my work
This madness needs to stop
I must implore
Cease and resist
This urge you have
To tell me every little thought
Every tiny annoyance
IDC what makes you mad
My tools suddenly break
I'm not sure how much more
Of today I can take
I have to stop
find another solution
I'm starting to wonder
If this is a fever dream
As I'm locked inside an institution
Surely this cannot be
Perhaps it is me
And I am the one mad
An asylum
A nut house
Either way
That's where it feels that I am
The phone rings again
I let out a sorrowful moan
What is it now
What more do you want
I viciously groan
I answer the call
My uncle
The one still alive
Is released from the hospital
But in need of a ride
Ok I say
I know you have no one
I'll be there soon
Just let me finish this task
I'm almost done
I'll meet you in the waiting room
#poetry
As i dash for the door
A rapping tapping
Knocking galore
This is the 5th time today
You've shown up at my door
The phone rings once more
That sharp piercing sound
Echoing so loud
Accompanied by the voice
Of this man at my door
The rings
The questions
The demands
All clamouring together
In the most vile of symphonies
As I vomit up my most fakest of sympathies
I run
I simply rush away
I stop answering
Stop appeasing
Stop entertaining
I just run
Shouting back
I'm sorry
I'm done
#poetry
(Needs edit)
Ring ring
Oh the phone's sharp sting
Twenty minutes pass
Ring ring
Once more that sharp sting
Ten minutes pass
Ring ring
Again that dreadful sting
Could you come in early
Could you please hurry
I'm here
I'm waiting
No offense
But you have nothing else to do
But of this I will not inform you
With politeness I quote a time
One minute passes and again that awful chime
Ring ring
Oh again I feel the sting
Where are you
Why are you late
I'm actually early
But this I will not debate
I'm sorry your life is on hold
I'm sorry for the things you will not be told
Before I hear that ring ring ring
And again feel that awful sting
I shall hurry out the door
Rush to your side
By your demands I abide
#poetry
Coincidentally
Death visits my dreams in a bar
One that I've never seen before
I had no time to process until now
I still don't have all the information
Idk how
Normally I would just assume
my drinking and smoking too much
while watching football
Is going to be my doom
#poetic Cosmic humour
You either live or die every day
You only live once
Probably
You only die once
Maybe
You either live every day
Or each day you die a little inside
Last night I watched the woman in black
At the end the main character dies with his son
Hit by a train
Reunited with his deceased wife
A happy ending in horror
And that's what everyone is looking for
What they're expecting
What gives them hope
In some weird way
Mortality is so hard for humans to contemplate
Why have to suffer tragedy only to end in darkness
With the world being so cruel
People can't understand why there'd be no light at the end of the tunnel
I think about life and death often
The fragility
The different paths people take
From cradle to coffin
The thought of death visiting my dreams
Last night
My subconscious plight
Playing with the frayed seams
I trace the edges of his hood cascading
with my fingertips
Noticing the fading
He says to me
Are you surprised to see me here
I simply reply
Relaying
You visit so often
I'm desensitized
Not fearing
And he just nods
And turns away
Quietly disappearing
My slumber later abruptly coming to an end
A call
Information I keep expecting
Another death of a friend
My subconscious seems aware
During my waking hours
I shrug it off
I don't seem to care
Perhaps I'm numb
Perhaps I'm disassociating
Disconnecting
Stowing my feelings
Emotional allocating
#poetry
(Real)
Two souls
One reckless night
As fate would have it
Destiny seemed intertwined
If only this
They should've that
One second you're here
The next your gone
The signs were there
But no one saw it coming
An inevitability
But I see no deep meaning
A lesson I've already learned
Albeit the easy way
As if I already grieved this event
A scenario in my mind
The creeping anxiety while driving at night
I wonder if the feeling will now subside
If so
I'll be told to look to my intuition
My in-tune instincts
That needless unprovoked worry
#poetry
Loss of his muse
Cancer took his wife
And in so
Along with her
The spark in his life
Once vibrant color
now only hues of the blues
Soaking in booze
Drowning in sorrow
Unable to cope
Nothing left to lose
Such sad news
Troubled mind unraveling
Self destruction
Hopelessness consumed
Grappling with what's happening
a lone soul traveling
A life he didn't want to choose
Tragedy comes in twos
#poetry
Trying to make sense of what occured
Those involved are dead
No one alive to blame
The anger transferred
The families now turned
to the bar
Looking for answers
Asking how
Why were they let in the car
Bizarre
Trying to sue
Is it the loss of life
Or the potential gain
That motivates you
Such a wretched thing
Money
Blame
Hate
Oh what death may bring
#poetry
