Quotes about venom, page 12
Prove Yourself The Vampire
When you come...
Do it through the window.
Do this when the Moon glows.
And sink your teeth,
With venom sweet.
With no blood to drip or leak.
Promise me I'll be swept off my feet.
And prove yourself the vampire.
'Honey,
I ain't doing all that just to get some sex!
These new movies the kids are addicted to,
Are not for us.
I keep telling you that!
And frankly,
I don't see the romance in it at all! '

Dear Stillness,
Still, are you here?
Still, it is I.
Still, you have found me.
Shrouded with the weight of your presence,
Shifting through what scars memory has captured,
Shredding through ties that have kept me intact.
Shrapnel splits veins, leaving venom to spread.
Still, you are no comfort,
Still, you hover like a thick mist,
Still, I am deafened by your whispered silence.
Still, I need you to go, but
Still, I want you to stay.

Medusa Is Mad
The irony of it
(sort of like Medusa getting bit
by a snake)
did not escape her.
She was the one
who ALWAYS had the upper hand,
who never gave an inch,
whose venom was
100 proof.
She could not
for the life of her
pinpoint the moment
when she had
lowered her guard,
exposed her vulnerability.
Betrayal is a slithery thing,
reptilian, if you will.

Red tongues tied
Red tongues tied
Words of truth died
When you lied
Think of me
Like a swarm of bees
Sting
Bring out your venom
Lend shout
Aloud is your color red tongues tied
Fed proud this roller glide
Downtown bottom hide
South side shone shadow
On manhattan island alone.
Rome on south sunny side
We dance in dreams but hide.
Red, fed, tongues and lungs
Songs tied
La la sing words lied
Said my face red sum dallied

Remnants of a Ravenous Activity
Shallow are the crabs
Laying near the bottom of the heap.
Pinching and clawing those near the top!
Wanting more darkness.
Wanting the light shown to stop.
And rotten is the smell,
Preferred and enjoyed.
Tough of crust,
And a sting of venom.
In a barrel that's enjoyed.
To eat themselves and keep...
Trapped.
Devoured.
Until there is nothing left,
But remnants of a ravenous activity.
And scarred shells...
That have begun a rusting into dust!

Venom That Is Adored
Some folks have to be trained,
To do what it is they desire to do.
Some learn what they do in school.
I did too and it felt like a waste of my time.
Since I've known in my mind...
What now seems like forever.
I've always been connected to what it 'Is'
I've always known who it is I am.
And often I have felt out of place...
On foreign shores!
While others debate racism...
Self hatred and their waste,
With such a venom that is adored!

Friendly Words
Words are acts in friendship, in common language,
We carry out tasks for the joke and story,
Holes in the ground are worth filling
As death is again at service, and death is willing.
Gold is found there, it serves the purpose of God,
The purpose is to exist and dissolve venom that describes,
It is poison that bites your head and hands
Like a golden bee and a stinging wasp.
Words shall direct their effort, and they swing from place to place.

Black Magic
He was still paying the price
for ultimate unbending.
Before the black icon locked the waves
to start tremors for an apolitical murder.
He took the call and stood straight,
stopped the melodrama of drinking the venom
and became larger than death.
This is the story of a common man,
who remained silent, went on looking
for the invisible marks on the ornamental sword
carved after every farewell to the severed
head of another clan.

Radicalism
The coming of a that
to dismantle the comb,
unstilling trees under tracer bullets
swaying in embrace
for moonmilk.
The unzipped planktons in sea
open their mouth to supermoon for a night dive
in a green passion. Does it
need a scrutiny? Why a love song
has tarnished the icy mounds?
The venom
of hissing light on a sleeping bay
has erased the aging lines of art
and face was becoming a terror.
There will be no mercy now
for survivors.

Truth No Truth
Declare that you care -
The number of independance -
Is I -
The truth, words which roam, scarsly into rare -
The ultimate of promises -
Made to crack what was soaked in break -
The link cast to my chain -
Beneath the meaning -
Please relax -
Relate the truth -
Wrapped in wax -
I cannot smooth your sooth -
Behind the mirror -
Lies my viper -
If you are bitten -
Caught by the venom in my lies -
I have kiss my bye-bye -
I said my goodbyes
