Sins and Virtues

Even the nicest person will turn worst
If his instincts are provoked to react.
Even the worst person will turn best
If his instincts are lulled and put to sleep.

Sins exist despite virtues.

The wise and the vice

You will not correct your wrongs
Unless your instincts dictate it.
You will not change your habits
Unless your instincts warrant it.
You cannot love or hate
Unless your instincts support them.
You cannot practise honesty
Unless your instincts promote it.
To grow wise will not terminate vice.

Worst Person

i am a worst person
worst person who wish to kill my enemy
i want to kill them until they ask for a pity
kill them until their tears is falling

until their blood flow like a river
i want to see them screaming
screaming to me with tears of blood
blood of their own

i want to revenge for justice
justice that im asking for so long
so long that I've been to silence
so long that I'm crying as i sleep

because before i have no strength to fight
but now i found my strength
i don't have to cry as i sleep
my face will be brighten again

if i will kill them
i can taste the sweetness of a revenge
i don't have a pity with them anymore
because i am a worst person

The Worst And The Best

in the hospitals and jails
it's the worst
in madhouses
it's the worst
in penthouses
it's the worst
in skid row flophouses
it's the worst
at poetry readings
at rock concerts
at benefits for the disabled
it's the worst
at funerals
at weddings
it's the worst
at parades
at skating rinks
at sexual orgies
it's the worst
at midnight
at 3 a.m.
at 5:45 p.m.
it's the worst

September 11 is one of our worst days but it brought out the best in us. It unified us as a country and showed our charitable instincts and reminded us of what we stood for and stand for.

The role of intellect

Play instincts help one create things
Sexual instincts help one build things.
Aesthetic senses help one perfect things.
Slavery tendencies help one run things.
The world is not built by intellect
Which boasts it governs the world.

As I said, I began losing confidence in my instincts, which is tough and very bad for an instinctive person.

Instincts’ effects

Instincts-
Quick to act,
Faithful in act,
But is ignorant
Of its repercussion.
Instincts are to save oneself
But often lead one to a fall.

The Basic Law Of Survival

when you are so hungry
hungrier than a dog
who cares about the cleanliness of the food
that is available for your taking?

when you are too tired
you do not mind what place is it that sleep takes you
you just dropp dead
and snore

in the most basic instincts
man can be anything

in the worst form of our emptiness
whatever is it that fills us for the meantime
we shall take in

we do not bother if it comes from God anymore
heaven and hell become nothing in the making

it is the basic law of survival
religion, morality, ethical standards
do not matter.

If Flowers Turn

Flowers for a girl who was placed in the dark
Flowers from a world that had taken her heart
They looked so pretty, but the blood stained them
If flowers turn
Throw them away, throw them away
If flowers turn
Throw them away, throw them away
Pull the braids untie all of the pain from your hair
Don't let the buzzards try or they'll take what's been there
Signs appear, and the worst you fear
If flowers turn
Throw them away, throw them away
If flowers turn
Throw them away, throw them away
Don't look to the dark all of the pain that you want is here
Uncover your heart so the feeling can disappear
The worst winds are calling, they need you they want you
I'm in the dark and I can see a thing for miles
If flowers turn
Throw them away, throw them away
If flowers turn
Throw them away, throw them away
I know, I've seen the pain in your heart
Because I died for us

Only optimism kills

It comforts me, when things go bad,
To think they aren’t worse as they could be.
It still comforts me, when things turn worse,
To think they aren’t worst as they could be.
It still more sooths, when things fell worst,
To think they are so bad that it would better.
Thus the optimism drags me down
While the events might still worsen..

Original - Time, My Worst Enemy

Time, My Worst Enemy
Keeping me away from you
Time, My Worst Enemy
Moving slowly when we’re apart

Time, My Worst Enemy
Fleeting when you are near
Time, My Worst Enemy
Battling with it daily

Time, My Worst Enemy
Stealing moments from the clock
Time, My Worst Enemy
Until you are in my arms again

Time, My Worst Enemy
Rapidly chasing us down
Time, My Worst Enemy
He will not take you this time

Time, My Worst Enemy
You are in my arms to stay
Time, My Worst Enemy
Has Lost!

Where Is She?

Where is she, I wondered, when she wasn't there.
If she's not here she could be anywhere. She could be
anywhere and not alone.
I began to imagine the worst. At every imagining
I thought I had imagined the worst, then I imagined
something even worse. It got to the point where my
imaginings no longer included her. I realized that the
worst did not encompass her. As my imaginings continued,
as worst superseded worst, making the preceding worst
only worse, I began to forget her. As worst got worse,
I forgot her more. Things were getting pretty bad, and
I had almost forgotten her completely, when she
reappeared.

The most and the worst

Man wants money most
And uses it worst.
He wants time most
And spends it worst.
He wants things most
And waste them worst.
He wants women most
And miss them worst.

Your Own Worst Enemy

Its your own worst enemy
Ringing the bell on the door
And the person inside says nobodys home
So your own worst enemy peeks inside
And sees you softly weeping as some music fills the room
And the song they play
Is that guy with the messed up face
Going, precious and few are the moments that you
And your own worst enemy share
Full bottle in front of me
Time to roll up my sleeves
And get to work
And after many glasses of work
I get paid in the brain
And the song they play
Is that guy with the messed up face
Going, precious and few are the moments that you
And your own worst enemy share
And the song they play
Is that guy with the messed up face
Going, precious and few are the moments that you
And your own worst enemy share
Its your own worst enemy

Just wait a little longer

I came so close to breaking down,
so close to losing it all.
I never thought that this I'd say,
But please catch me when I fall.

For so long I've been running away,
afraid to face my fears.
And now you've come and picked me up,
and wiped away my tears.

If only you could see,
just how far I've come.
The person I used to be,
and the person standing here...right now.

So could you wait a little longer,
for the sorry I wish to say.
For only you could ever know,
how much it hurts this way.

I thought I kept it still,
locked up and hidden far.
And yet you come and pry my heart out,
open to you as the sun.

Many nights you've seen me,
at my very worst.
And yet you love me all the same,
Filling my heart till it bursts

If only you could see,
just how far I've come.
The person I used to be,
and the person standing here...right now.

(I meant this as a song, but it can go both ways :)
