• We Sit

    We sitin comfortand ponderabout almost anything.Like we are right now.In another placea place that makes hell look appealingthey lie in abject anonymity,barely existing.There is no time for navel-gazingwhen all there is to eat is rubble.It seems the Almightydoesn't know...

    • If God has a reason I would imagine it would be to teach us love and to help. It’s on us but we let them down. That’s one reason the thought of billionaires sicken me. They could help but most either don’t or just do enough for a tax write off.

    Bleed To Breathe

    I let myself bleed to breathe. I write out what I need to… Allowing myself to be lacerated by the world's harsh judgments, however, as I bleed, I begin to breathe!   Ink bleeds out of my wounds onto the page, and I transcribe what...

  • Obscure

    The joker’s always grinning He’s grinning at your pain Negative vibes are spinning Taking root inside your brain   A wicked sin turns violent When it’s got nothing pure Cold stare remaining silent Preferring to remain obscure      Copyright @ Damian DeadLove 2024

    • Nice rhythm love the joker in batman creation

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Fia. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Joker, is pure madness. lol. Funny enough the first two lines came from lyrics to an old song that J.J. Burton and I wrote together. The rest of the words weren’t up to par. But always loved those first two lines. Appreciate you.

    • Why so serious? Lol 🃏

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Alexandria. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Such an iconic Joker line. Appreciate you.

    • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It’s not really about the Joker, to be truthful. The first two lines are from an old song that was just a silly song that J.J. Burton and I penned the words to in like 1993. But I always liked the first two lines, so I just wrote something else to them. He mentioned the Joker because he was a fan, and I just used that to make the first two lines. lol. A little backstory for you, I always ramble on. lol. Appreciate you.

    • hello dearest Damian I really liked this one I guess the joker would kind of be Lucifer always laughing at peoples pain really your poem rocks as they do anyway 💕

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Brenda. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I think the joker could be Lucifer, but I was also thinking that darker side we all have inside. Really it could apply to any form of a personal demon, different to each person. Sorry for rambling. lol. Appreciate you.

    • The first thought I have is a person or boss egging you on while you struggle.or just being smug. Laughing at your pain kinda thing.

      Great ink, friend

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Nick. So glad you connected with the write my friend. That’s also a possibility, it could kinda be that person that’s a thorn in my side. Great commentary. Appreciate you.

    • As usual, I may be reading this wrong. But I’m feeling a sense of apathy is just as deadly as hate/evil. Those who don’t speak up for others, give their silence as a voice to the bullies. It definitely has my mind going, my friend

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I can see that, you always have cool insight to the meaning, always enjoy your commentary. Appreciate you.

    Gothic Erotica (Part One)

           Night bore witness to our wild union. It was a hot night along the arched passageway leading into the castle chapel from the expanse of the courtyard. The ancient stone passage was torchlit and our...

    Loves out of order.Imagined fear/terror.Necessary mental response.Collapse of reason and logic.Rise of despair.Sense of hopelessness.What is sleep?Mind always whirring.Suicidal ideation.Nothing but suffering.A smile from a stranger.A speck of light.A lovely thought.Black turns to grey.Grey turns to beige.Some reason returns.The...
