Without it, where will you go? The hunter primes his catch with a letter not meant for him. The inner statue of still standing might covered with flies echoes in heinous scum same. Inside sanity wreaks the ink stain writing letters not meant for hunters. Flourishing machine oils leave without paying and the orbital collapses on fresh meat within serendipity and lacking quench. For your efforts you are rewarded with an apple inside-out with worms saluting. Polished brass knuckles lie in increasing sizes from yellow to eight along the tip of your tongue. Within it, you beckon and I take a chance and downstream we flow.
Reading that was a psychedelic journey in and of itself. Definitely a keeper. 
Awesome thankyou!

Wrote this a while back, turned it into a song but it started out as just a poem. it's called Long is the road
Long is the road that's traveled cold are the winds that blow
muddy are the feet that walk them tired & trodden as they go
weak are the legs that bear us small are the things we know
Far is the destination up and down that dusty road.
and though I can see a light I also feel the pain inside swimming in the only sea I know
and though I can see a light not sure if I'm seeing right Gonna sing the only song I know
weary are the eyes so watchful Quiet like the oceans deep
heavy is the heart that's carried broken peace wont let me get to sleep
Long is the road thats traveled warm are the tears that flow
far is the destination up and down that dusty road.

I stood and watched as you stomped and Let out your war-cries Rain dancing
So Little I could do I could show you some love but What use am I?
That poison has you thinking you’re the messiah. Id almost be inclined.
Who hooked you into the web Of lies and truths? Was it a strange beast who stole your dance? You’re such a beautiful mess One of gods forgotten children Too lovely for hell and too broken for heaven
You told me that nothing feels real That you love too much and are at odds Your kind come in prototypes
Defective and doomed To carry strange burdens On your thousand year old shoulders
Who nailed you to your cross? Who swam between your ears And poisoned your laugh?
I won’t shed tears And I won’t call to god He dies when you do
I may come off callous and I know it seems wrong But how can I cry brother when you’ve been dead for so long?
He walks through woods at night Talking to Lune hoping that She might share some of her secrets But she is still And he is but a god’s mistake and No use to her.

nice one mrosef. I like the part "i am not a fool looking to build and destroy, you are not a face, you are not a friend, running out of space, bodies lay end to end." Good job. 
Here's one I wrote a few years ago. It's called Frequency Route:
Is it a voice within,
like a plant with roots embedded,
stretching vital signals thin,
with no idea of where it's headed?
Within every living object,
driving frequencies apart,
something only few detect,
what escapes the fractured heart?
Is it something quite abstract,
made of false realities,
is it like a heart attack,
seazing, giving way to thee?
Like a tree with branches spread,
both near and far apart,
what becomes of human souls,
when man has lost his mortal heart?

just typed this up before and made it my facebook cover image:
The fire is blown out and the smoke burns. The times table lacks insight into its condition: pinned to a wall, fear and headlights in its eyes. Sequential locking of doors, the hallway turns black and inhales. Cough, sputter.

Hear feet dippin into a gravitational space of which my mind is always in a race. To catch myself is to let go, lost in the sea, I will find what I know. Look into my heart, I breathed it from the start. A star torn a part, spread inter connect ed. THroat tear drop boat of salvation, vessel expanding understanding. This, right now, I love you. I love you. Isle of you.

i've been here for years under this big ole blue sky skimming stones from barren shores watching from above between the rocks of mountain tops killing time
I've been stressed and depressed ran out of things to say innocent and deranged lying claims and stakes conquered and shoved my pride in street walls
watched infinity in the stars felt life swell above and crush me asked a million times why (still waiting on a reply) through the looking glass over and over
watched the animals creep about at night dying by the lakes at daybreak swarmed upon by flies while bees break bread over the wild flowers
the world ashamed and insouciant tomorrow gleeful and caring the cradle coverging; centering then falling into disarray
balance and chaos The clocks strike, 3, 5 and 4 with barely a whisper and passing will it ever be no more?

By time we are bound A curse some would say By whichever of gods You, mortal man, prays to that day How strange it all seems The push we all feel The tick tick of the clock Pressing on Ever on Theirs no stopping for you Yet there is a word Said many ways what it all boils down to What we try to explain How are minds try to grasp Why things decay with each day Felling of buildings Tumbling of man With all things that begin Inevitablly end Thats the measure of time We all grasp in our mind So we all get a piece A small sliver youd say Just a smidgen, a taste Of this place we relate To do evil Maybe good Or to just coast by Like a phantom afraid To tip his hat either( i-ther) way Where should we go? What should we do? Who knows little youth Its your slice of pie This question you pose Albeit a good one Will only keep you stressed While time ticks ever onward.

I don't follow any particular format.. My inspiration comes from free form spoken word artists (Sage Francis, Buddy Wakefield, Scroobius PIP, Saul Williams, Ect.). This piece is called 'Never See The Wind'
He said he would never see the wind but he could feel his spine tingle when it hit He says he like the way it feels there's too much tension in his head from tuggin' on the reel teetering on the brink falling off his rocker with another song to sing didn't feel claustrophobic., lost between two walls closin' with just him in his bed with an empty bottle., overdosin' he's chosen to be open to the lasso of problems that has him roped in he can't see the wind, but he can feel the rules on the prescription bottle when they bent
she showed false smiles but in her lonesome she cut her self I guess stones that slow the flow of the river purify the water, still..She said she'd never see the wind only the dead leaves & dirt that's blowin' in it very little insurance if this was beginning to get to her or ending.. The feeling of your sanity, bending like a wine glass "only reason I'm alive is for "God's sake".. She said it like that.. I can tell she knows she's about to break.. I, seen the pain in her eyes, but I, was scare to mention it in fear that it would steer unstable emotions off of cliffs & into oceans like vehicles with suicidal drivers with their notes writ, this is poetry in motion. .. & The more she started distancing herself the more she started mentioning the hell she spent her time alone in., whispering to willows someone would visit every now & then but never take notice or bring up, the blood on her pillow & if you did., Still thou.. No, She'll never say anything she'll go outside alone, instead & sit in the rain contemplating., "Should I hurry the fuck up, or keep waiting." & I kept waiting., For the depression to infest her one day all the medication, made the razor blades., Finally get the best of her

Moon struck
"I have a dream" I am sure has been said true for every being, for every living stream on this land for Kings of Queens. Who hasn't seen the Moon as the sky, or mid-days Sun breaking through rain clouds; all these colors are here so I had to give it up to the prism of light, I exist in Gods moment, Nurturing as the Moons gaze which never turn from my place; her eyes wait for mine to awaken and we meet for the night till our grip fades; Let the Sun shine on me, let the whole universe see I wait for the night to come, for the Moon has stricken me
-------------------- just give me a field and a sun ray!

Nice thread rejuvanation!
Here's a little ditty I wrote up while bored in my Crystallography course.
Here I shit Full of poo Take a hit Scent of zoo.
Smoke and methane mingle And my insides tingle. But what is this? Out my butt it slips.
Brown rock shaped like a fist And I think I've ripped Proceed to smoke a spliff And wallow in my pain. I lay down on my bed And hope for no more strain.
Alas, the commode cannot swallow. The plunger jumps, and I follow Out the toilet flies a swallow And strikes me in the face.

garbage really but i hope it's down SOMEONE's alley 
Instigate within the wireframe neuron Take away the order and replace with nulon Polish the synapse squeaky-clean and run within with freaky gleam The face that washed away
Forever and then more, life is not and is not a chore Tongues twist within the neurological circuit No time to take down notes with your pen Never again
Underneath the roach-weaved carpet lies a dart with no sentiment except to expound contents of pouches washed with river-soaked never-stood rightness lost within a mind-bending Ken-doll lost within a Barbie product renamed Mend-All as the company expanded business into the convenience market, Self lost here and not found astray, millions become millions in a hive of convinced mesmorism and self-haunted self-decay. Then you see it, not ever you don't, live here and do not choke on your vegetables as they came out of a dart-gun shot at a running cabbage with no loss intended in the variety market's community donations except those delivered to a strange idiot by the pot plant who garners rage without a second thought and stares and stares and stares inviting only stares as he pretends there are no cares within his decaying mind-bank sold to the highest bidder and loaned to deadening carpet slug-drugs pixel-high and pixel-nigh, lever the orange and give it storage without a second thought you ought, bought and sold, caught and old.
Why stare, why stare, why stare, at me, like that, you twat, you're like a cat, cricket without a bat, you old hat, left to gather dust, lick up rust, and mistrust any man who walks with schizophrenia in his stride, a brain fried, never you mind, you old kind, wander Earth no more as we are here, we have shed our tears and it's never been said to you – has it? - that you are yesteryear's. Douse your fears, ignite the minute's meres and let's become something else in this house left to stand on rickey ground.

Slow fog fills the sky, I can’t see the top
Halfway to the stars, How dare I stop
My back moans "enough!" and my feet long for home,
But if I quit now there wouldn’t be a poem
So I climbed and I ached at a marvelous pace
And I passed through the fog, a gradual grace
I sat at the top and the moon smiled back,
The rest of the sky, an eloquent black
Except for one star,
Who made it this far.

Why is the cat not outside all the time If he enjoys the sun like me. Wind and bird songs blow through me Making room for it all Wind curls around me Gentle arms wrapping me in now Awareness curls like leafs drying on the deck birds ringing out into the great unknown The sphere of consciousness perceived from the point The point that reflects it all All of which has grown
