I title it, "Frankenstein's Monster"...

A world given to normalcy
at my passing watches warily
my eyes as dry as desert sand
they think i do not understand
the emotions that they come to feel
a weight that causes me to kneel
an inner light that goes unknown
behind a mask of flesh and bone
science gone wrong, abomination
the darker side of man's creation
to wander forth and ever be
iconic of man's duplicity
a nomadic trek of haunted steps
a wait to see God's promise kept
that though unnatural the birth
he least in me might find some worth
my days to me fragmented dreams
a patchwork heart with nightmare seams
love from none to spare upon
this life-given automaton

feel out of Place

I like it!

Makes me feel like a good stiff drink of whiskey ....

Mechanics must make life dynamic,
Actions arise, blessed, satanic
Stumble forth from basic need,
Irrelevant of thought or creed.
We are the creatures of our guts,
Defenseless out of ifs and buts.
Life's demands are simple, strong
That can, with care, become a song,
Can end up a painful howl,
Or decline to angry growl.
Sustenance is best maintained
By coveting whatever's gained,
Rejecting losses, drop regrets.
Look ahead and pay your debts.
