Gluttony is Routine
It comes time and time again every day Shackles to the fridge and the pantry Gazing not upon death, but a lack of life Unwaveringly apathetic towards my next meal The human need to consume daily Contrasts the heart’s rejection No longer do I desire to consume the same meals Yet without them, I will…

Thunderstorm
The clear skies and swift clouds are no longer As madness takes over the big blue, they turn against the Earth Clouds darken, full of fury and horror Within them, weapons to be dreaded by the world A gray, puffy swirl consumes the sky – blue no more The color of despair reigns across the…

Waterfall
Waterfalls will always pour, no matter what you do If there’s extra rain, the water will come down stronger A big, cold splash, perfect for the warm, breezy summer Sometimes the rainfall makes sense; this is the right time for rain Other times, it will be the wrong time The villagers grow annoyed with how…

The Id Phoenix
The Id Phoenix may be the weirdest Phoenix of them all For many reasons | As it was younger, the Id Phoenix soared in the sky like a… well, like a bird Its wings tickled the wind as a way of saying “hello” It was often ahead of the other birds While its aura shined…

Sugarcoat
Sugar is sweet Sugar is a delicious treat Sugar makes all the world’s best foods better Ice cream, cookies, and cake Sugar is what makes them what they are Sugar makes life sweeter | A girl eats a spoonful of sugar every day She may tingle, she may twitch Yet her life is always sweet…

The Rain
I think I now understand why the rain is a symbol for sadness | Imagine a sunny day Full of joy, wonder, and cheer People are hanging out and socializing outside The animals are singing and dancing across the streets Kids are playing sports or swimming in the cool summer air Maybe even a rainbow…
