AN EMOTIONAL TORRENT

It's drizzling today. I love when it rains.

Rain turns the brown grass green, 

clears the air of pollutants, 

and feeds thirsty roots.

It's inclement again. I hate rain.

Rain shields the sun, limits fun, 

and when the clouds go dark, 

my mind follows.

It's pouring today. I love the rain.

Rain washes away blood,

 leaves my soul shiny and new, 

and promises forgiveness.

It's still damp. I hate rain.

Rain creates a gloomy day,

the mind wanders, 

and memories of murder 

haunt with desires for more.

It's storming now. 

I love a tempest,

 especially when

 I've murder in mind.

ENGINE 7 5 0 2 9

Seven years we were wed

Five million tears now shed

I pushed you in a rage

Not realizing I'd be caged

Onto the tracks, you fell

At the clang of the engine's bell

That moment's a blur

But witnesses concur

Zero friends have rallied

Their votes I have tallied

Instead, to her they throng

There is nowhere I belong

Two lives' you transformed

On that train platform

My heart was broken

When loves loss was spoken

For I alone held deed

To all your desires and needs

Nine days till the hangman's noose

Did she seduce

These thoughts I still ponder

For time, I can squander

Were you smitten

Did she make your heart quicken

My only regret

I couldn't kill Yvette

But if curses are true

She'll soon be blue

Her breath I'll steal

Your money made the deal

I want your pardon

To walk in heavens garden

Will you find it in your heart

Will death mean a new start

Or has destiny showed 
Hell, as our new abode?

I'm no poet

as surly this shows

but after hours of trying

I wasn't denying

my prose a chance to shine

or it's place in the annuals of time.

(In other words, I had nothing else!) :)

Here's a lot more!
