The Goddess Takes Pleasure


She’ll scratch your face for pleasure

She’ll make you bleed with pain 

She’ll laugh when you are hurting she’ll take you again and again


When she knows that you are fearful

She’ll pounce and tear you apart

And though she loves the hunting

She’ll kill as she throws her dart


She is hotter than burning ice

Mean and cold within 

But her stare will make you shiver

And make you do her thing 


She’ll make you kneel before her

She’ll make you taste her lust

And when she takes her pleasure

She’ll discard you like a crust


Born to be a leader

Intelligent to tbe core

She will never be your plaything 

She’ll never be your whore


When she has broken you into pieces

And taken all she needs

She’ll give you time to heal 

But will return again to feed


You will never escape her passion

For no one else can meet 

The pleasure she will give you 

As you worship at her feet


She’ll stoke your head and heal your wounds 

But her care for you is fake

For this is just a ritual 

As she thinks how she will take


When she looks into your eyes and says I love you so 

You know your days are numbered

For now it’s time to go.

Failed Expression


I’m a dick I’m a tool

I keep trying hard, playing the fool


I fail when i express myself

maybe that’s why I’m on the shelf ?


When I set my heart alight, I convince my self my goal is right 

But I can’t change the winds of time

And all I got left are my words of rhyme


I hurt my self with longing

Its visible for you to see

I can’t hide my inner feelings,

I fail so miserably.

So please forgive my failings

And look into my eyes 

For deep within the blueness

I’m sure that you will see

my hope and expectations 

For you my friend and me.

Love Cracks

I can read your heart and the cracks I will mend with love

Anarchy with Strawberry

Crazy days with insane actions

No doing life in small boring fractions 


Anarchy thrills, but conformity 

Kills. 


Rules are meant to be broken,


Words are meant to be spoken


I don’t want yes and no ,


I want passion and lust


So safe,so bland , so right 

I want to taste strawberry

So juicy, so fruity, so insane 


I don’t want vanilla again and again


Echo the sound of passion


Rise to the sun with zest 


But never shall I be satisfied 

Until my last breath, I’ll not rest


So seek the best flavours in life

And taste only what tastes sweet


For anything less will not satisfy 

But delay your longing for good.

STILL SEARCHING FOR LOVE




I never got a hug from my parents, it wasn’t the done thing those days.

I searched all my life for acceptance

I searched all my life for love. 

For Life without love is so empty and the craving can turn to despair.


 I’m not being selfish or needy, I just need to be told 

“I love you”, in a deep and meaningful way. 


Without love there is only isolation and loneliness it plunders deep within.


For love is the spark that lights up your heart and where all you inspiration begins. 


So with hope I’ll continue my journey and maybe some day I do pray , that the one who is meant to love me will pass along my way.

A Slice of Life

Got to take a piece of your life and slice it away

Got to pick at the bones in a crooked way

Got to dig and dig until it crumbles away 


That’s Time , every minute counts 

That’s Time


Crazy Daisy Saddam Hussain

Dropping bombs like falling rain 

I can’t lose, I can only gain 


That’s Time, every minute counts 

Thats Time


Rolling in at quarter to three 

Hearing sounds from the acid tree

Keeping sleeping dancing free


That’s Time, every minute counts

That’s Time


Broken promises Broken dreams

Known attraction love foreseen

Make a tower of falling cards  


That’s Time, every minute counts

That’s Time


When the reaper knocks and takes my soul

When the memory fades for friend and foe

I will live through legend and myth


That’s Time, every minute counts,

That’s Time

I BELIEVE

I BELIEVE


I believe the earth is flat 

I believe infinity is a myth 

I believe that Australia doesn’t exist 

I believe that  it’s a selfish world

I believe society has broken down

I believe that the masses dictate 

I believe it’s harder to speak and have an opinion

I believe that people don’t have a view they just follow like lemmings 

I believe we have a controlled society

I believe people are scared to be different 

I believe different is what was previously the norm

I believe in Heaven and Hell

I believe in God 

I don’t care what you believe in I just know What I believe in !!!
