Indie Poet Quotes

“Twirling the breeze like it's cotton candy,
I'm not the one they marry-
Every thirsty Thursday and drowned Sunday,
I collect them all and carry

The gypsy heart is too romanticized;
Whispers that scream down your spine
Never the Hellfire pain that's advertised,
only dancing with the wine”
― Casey Renee Kiser, Altered States of the Unflinching Souls

“Rape them all in my daydreams
for being good lil' nightmares;
Drape me in blurs of memes
I buried alive all my double-dares”
― Casey Renee Kiser, NightMARE Crush

“I'd throw kisses
while they'd throw banana peels
at my feet...
Trained monkeys!

Still, I'd wrap myself
around their thumbs...
when they weren't sucking them!

-from 'Jane of The Jungle”
― Casey Renee Kiser, Confessions of a D3AD Petal

“I don't let boys make me cry
I write rhymes and fucking fly
Been to Hell- check out my wrists
Came back King- check out my Mist

-from 'Came Back KIng”

“Took the bait and seemed convinced
that he raped me of my sanity
Joke is... a poet's born unhinged
to report the punchline of society

“arranged the pillows
on my bed to make it
look like a coffin

best three hours
of sleep in months

“Zig-zag reality, how long
can we drown in self deception;
Open the doors of perception...
and we wolves accept and howl, beholden

Cheers to the hungry, lost dogs
I hope you find a home, you know
I hope you get a good bath;
get shined up one day and glow
I used to be a lost dog in gloom
but, I've been a wolf for a while,
returning my hunger to the moon
I don't beg. And I hunt with style”
― Casey Renee Kiser, NightMARE Crush

“FiXXX ur Recep+ion

I never bother
with the broken antennas
Reception comes
through clearly for those not jealous
Love life alone;
don't buy extra large umbrellas
We can hold hands

if
you can pick up
what i put down-
motherfucker,
don't make a sound

Loud with ac+ion
will my real dark prince please stand up...

Avoidance-void
bores me to death; living dead girl
Beat 'round the bush
I'm not UR around the way girl
Slam dance; slam words
passion's a thing- give it a whirl
We can ignite

if
you can get down
burn; shut me up
motherfucker,
and don't give up

Fight for your right
what's your message; no ads disrupt”
― Casey Renee Kiser, Suckerpunching Spite
