    leaving but a shell?
    weaving your spell as you send me to hell and there compell my obedience?
    or perhaps your goal is to uplift
    to inspire me to greater acts
    of spirit; extract the drops of soul
    which remain
    drain the evil and leave but light?
    temper those drops of soul into the sword of right?
    cleaving through the unworthy thoughts in my head
    trimming the fat, as it were
    leaving the lean bits of virtue?
    and yet, what virtue? what if gristle be all you find, no bone, no substance?
    fill me then, with borrowed right, with loaned virtuosness
    grant me chastity at interest, in payments of fault which i shall excrete from my being
    allow me to be the light through the prism
    untinted, clear, bright

    oh invisible flame
    which burns me yet shows no proof
    allow me to shine in the darkness
    with the faith of the devoted.
    help me feel what i can't
    believe what I don't
    see what I ignore
    for the greater good
    Make sure you remember my name is not actually spelled Befernee on the royalty checks

    leaving just white hot steel
    burning off the rust
    so we can feel
    alive
    The more I read this one, the more I like it. The heat and urgency of the imagery...well...

    this breath from your lungs
    an errant blow without restrictions
    that displaces wind
    words within words, love between sighs
    lost.
    I'm with pixiedark, this one has a haiku feel to it. Like a wisp of breath at the nape of your neck.

    because fuck you, that's why.

    Hit me
    Hurt me
    Break me down
    Beat me black and blue
    Take my kids
    Take my light
    Take my life
    Steal my sunshine
    I’m still standing.

    Tell em lies
    Blame me
    Bloody me
    Poison my friends against me
    Drag my name through the mud
    I’m still standing.

    Make me your clown
    put my reputation in the ground
    I’m still around

    Nothing you do can bend my knees
    Nothing you do can break my will

    Nothing you do can make me love you.
    I’m still standing.

    When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)

    In the echoes of your looks
    in the space between your syllables
    i discern your true intent

    the contempt bleeds through
    despite your kind words
    those illustrious lies
    you tell so well.

    when you smile at me
    in your superiority
    your knowledge of my place
    outside your bourgeoisie.

    I shall break you down!
    if I cannot climb to you,
    be your equal,
    you shall be mine.

    in fear and tears
    i'll diminish you
    dehydrate your soul
    make you base; like me.

    crumble your self worth
    ruin your self esteem
    piss on your confidence
    shit on your dreams

    bring you down
    slap you around
    wither your smiles
    unravel the seams

    of your happiness,
    your assurance.
    Safe in your superiority;
    how dare you be better than I?

    Burn, corrode, sigh
    my failure is contagious
    be a loser, like me.
    Your pain will make me smile.

    All the while, tasting the bile,
    losing everything worthwile.
    Come to me, be low
    Surrender your confidence to me
    Only I can make you smile.


    Thanks again, to Beffy, for the help. She has a 3 line credit here.
