Killer's Soul...

Whispers invading my inner ears
Make me crazy
Composing messages
Telling tales

Secrets of the universe
Held in my heart
Grasped at with empty fingers
Unable to rest in my hand

Soulful songs in my throat
Trapped by reason
Beautiful music
Heard only by me

Choirs of angels and demons
Sing counterpoint in time
Listen...
Cresendos come quickly

Screams of innocence
Need replies
Arias of help
Weakly answer

Justice is sweeter than candy
Made right in rage's kitchen
But emotional food is empty
Filling only the moment

No one knows...

Yes, Keep reminding...

me of who I am! LOL As I said to Carrie, after the initial struggle to get things started, this poem just seemed to slide right out from beneath my fingers. Heh... That line might be another poem! Anyhow, I tried to show what motivates him. Maybe the story will be more detailed when next visited, and I will show what put him on this path. I venture to guess, that introspection is a big part of what drives a poet. Carrie wrote a poem describing what made DeMona what she is tonight, so I shouldn't be surprised that this might be a theme that runs through the site. I will have to check and see. Thanks for the first response of OMG... I think you like it! Love and hugs, from us to you, ~ Gee and "Killer"

I am [Gobsmacked] ?

I love that Aussie term! I don't know what it means eaxctly, but it sounds totally awesome! I really want to publish one day, and fully intend to. I think Carrie and DeMona would make terrific partners. I guess that being said, I will have to finally get to work on it. My wife said pretty much the same thing about publishing my Killer poems. She said I should get them all together, edit them and get myself a publisher. I will have to talk with Carrie about including DeMona, although I think she is already along for the ride. Killer has come a long ways since first inception. I didn't know it then but, he was born on July 29th, 2009 12:56 AM. Not even a year old, [really he is much older than that, and it will be dealt with along the way, like flashbacks in a movie or something.] but he has really grown up a lot. I thank you, and all our fans for the encouragment and advice we have recieved. I will need to go back and look at all the comments we have recieved for each piece. So glad to have them, courtesy of Neo. Have a great year Snake, and lotta love and hugs for you both. ~ Gee

i am

very interested in publishing DeMona along with Killer. We have taken two alter egos, that started as a way to release some of our frustrations and turned them into people that our audience can relate to, love/hate, sympathize with etc. Both characters have alot of potential on their own but are even better together. Now that I have time to work on stuff, we will have to see what we can do. I can always put my novel on hold for a little while so we can take care of what we have readily available for publishing. I will get with you over the weekend...we will be home for the duration....talk soon.....

Totaly tops Gee, That was a great read. You amaze me with how differant your writing is from one piece to another. I loved how very torn you where, with out making it corny. And your last stanza wrapped it up bueatifully. Justice is sweeter than candy Made right in rage’s kitchen But emotional food is empty Filling only the moment I can't think of a thing to suggest. Loved it! Julie D.D.

Thank you...

I wasn't too sure about the style that this poem took. I wanted it to be from his point of view, but wasn't sure about how it came out. Killer is a deep thinker, despite his child-like attitude. Those are my favorite lines too! He really nailed that one didn't he? My styles are the product of each of my separate personna. I really do get into their heads. [Or do they come from mine?] LOL Thank you for loving us, ~ Gee and "Killer"

wow.....

Really intense!!!! What a great look inside Killer's soul and emotions. I love how you use music to describe the confusion and turmoil he feels within. DeMona will definitely have an opinion for you in the near future...talk soon.....

"Killer' is musically...

inclined, as evidenced by his use of musical instruments to deal out justice to a certain guitarist. LOL His mind seems to be hardwired to music of all kinds. Music sets the mood for Killer. He loves classical though, above all. French horns, the crash of cymbals and kettle drums thrill him to no end! Go figure... I would have thoght that it would be head-banging stuff, or at least hard rock! LOL It will be great to hear from DeMona. Killer thinks she is one hot chick! He is looking forward to the next time they can get together. ~ Gee and Killer

DeMona is

looking forward to her next meeting with Killer. She has missed him over the last few weeks. She thinks he is pretty hot too, always a sucker for a sexy hard rockin serial killer LOL. Killer's musical inclinations are part of what makes him so attractive and something I know I can personally relate to. I cant wait to see where this goes....
