Morbid poetry part 3: Feeding the beast by mariah pompa


 Feeding the beast

Its there,

The blood dribbles down my chin,



Sweet, sweet it is,

Not the copper tang,



The tearing of flesh

Strain of the jaw,



Nostrils flaring,

Pain of my tongue pressed against my teeth,



The struggle ended,

Fast it was,



My eyes look nowhere,

Its dark,



A rumbling fills my chest,

Garbling out my throat,



It’s there,

Satisfaction so sweet,



Look at that,

 No heart left to beat.

Door Poems: Getting there by Mariah Pompa

Just reach for it, You've worked for this, Dressed up for this, filled out enough damned paper work for this, The cool metal slips through your sweaty fingers, A quick swipe on your pant leg saves face, The handle clicks against the ring on your finger, You may have a heart attack before you know,  Your chest aches at that thought, Adjusting the knot in your tie, Lighten the load, Take the handle, its time to go.

Doors poem: A Thought on Dreams By Mariah Pompa

Close your eyes and kiss logic goodbye, You know how this works, Nonsense, unconscious thoughts, the whole SHEBANG! It changes almost every night, Sometimes it scares me right out of it, Cold sweat, racing heart, fighting back the tears, Other nights its blissful darkness, Ironic since I'm afraid of the dark, Yet there are times where it all seems great, pushing along the fun times, easy dreams, and story plots, Those are the best, Is what they are, Dams, My unconscious key to a place for only me, To face the fears or put them off for just a moment longer, They are mine, my place to hide, my kingdom, my place to see, my place when in sleep.
