This is a compilation of psychological concept poetry I wrote for a story I'm working on. Kind of weird, hope you enjoy.

Carnivorous Tree
Spoiler for Hidden:
Thorns constricting,
Cutting flesh.
Underground there is no rest.
Sinking  downward,
Roots restricting,
Seven ghosts of pain inflicting.
Soil covered song you sang,
Weeping willows in the rain.
Fingers grasping,
Dirt in nails,
Ultra-speed mind gone off the rails.
Ground is cracked and dried tomorrow.
Nothing left behind but sorrow.
Crazy Crows
Spoiler for Hidden:
Hidden in their cruel domain,
Broken castle carved from pain.
They speak into their crystal ball.
Ear splitting cackle,
Forced to crawl.
Wicked torture with a flame.
Twisted talons,
Bloodied blame.
Just eat your food and play the game.
'Cause everybody seems to know,
They're just a bunch of crazy crows.
Dark Domain
Spoiler for Hidden:
Dreadful secrets that I hold,
Like rotting floorboards
Growing mold.
Though strangers tread atop the wood,
They cannot see.
They never could.
I wait below with dreadful dreams,
My world is ripping at the seams.
Beneath the ground my darkness basks.
My face remains behind the mask.
Cracks in the sky creak like a gate,
Please fall below and share my fate.
The never-ending masquerade,
The vicious cycles never wane,
Come join me in the dark domain.
Everill
Spoiler for Hidden:
Hidden in a ghost's disguise,
Lyle Everill always lies.
Whispers in your eager ears,
Vile words,
Grotesque fears.
Tricks you into doing wrong,
No where else that you belong.
Drawn by his compelling eyes,
He isn't real
Just a lie.
Schizoforestia
Spoiler for Hidden:
Severed limbs strewn on the floor,
Slaughtered forest,
Wooden gore.
Skin peels off trees,
A hemorrhaged mess.
Roots in my mind have me possed.
Wrap me in their coarse embrace,
Snag my skin and scrape my face.
Chanting endless deadly vows,
Manic voices now endowed.
Darkling creatures take my mind,
I let them loose,
Now unconfined.
Darkest Dark
Spoiler for Hidden:
In the sleepy wonder world,
My bones are broken,
Fingers curled.
Shadows probe my twisted nerves,
Pains of torments past preserved.
Contorted bodies,
Smell of decay,
Feed the urges kept at bay.
From the path of light I stray.
Now until the day I die
It's always night,
Never day.
Owl Head
Spoiler for Hidden:
A ringing glass and dripping rain,
The vision always starts the same.
Dancing curtains in the wind,
Owls chanting all my sins.
In my sleep and when I wake,
Taped up mind's about to break,
And just when growth begins to show;
Foolish dreams,
All systems go.
Snowy owls sit and stare,
Trapped and lost within their snare.
Snide white feathers in my hair,
My soul is grey,
My words are bare.
Lyle's Eulogy
Spoiler for Hidden:
Three little sisters dressed in white,
Taken from slumber in the dim of night.

Brought down to the murky waters,
There in lies the near dead father.
Briskly moving, voices raised,
His grip was tight, his eyes were crazed.

The winds, they howled and screamed
his name,
Dreadful monster filled with shame.
"Lyle, dear, don't misbehave.
God says send them to their graves!"

One by one, he held them down.
Bodies jerking, slowly drowned.
Last of all, his brutish father,
Watching all the dear dead daughters.

Sobbing now, he's screaming "Why!?",
Ghosts are feeding off the high.
Body shaking, clenching fists,
Vile pressence in their midst.

"You know I've always been depraved!"
Darkling creatures took his brain.
"I didn't ask for all this pain!"
Father frightened and ashamed.

Wind picked up and screamed the name.
"Lyle, dear, don't misbehave.
Send your father to his grave!"

Father filled with dread confusion,
Son is lost in his delusion.
Face seemed darkened, eyes were grey,
Reeking mental disarray.

Took his father by the throat,
With all the strength he could devote,
He squeezed as final tears were shed.
"Rejoice the day that daddy's dead!"

Beneath the ground, the roots, they
rumbled.
Quiet chanting, spirits mumbled,
"Lyle, dear, don't you agree?
We think it's time to feed the Tree."

Breath was short and eyes were dim,
Limbs contorting, face was grim.
Bubbled laughter, manic glee,
"I think it's time to feed the Tree."

Dragged along the forest floor,
Sisters morphed to holy gore.
Made his way across the thorns,
Bodies bumping, flesh was torn.

First he saw it's gaping mouth,
Teeth were gnarled, hollowed out.
Weezing as it takes a breath,
Scent that lingers, stench of death.

The Tree, it slowly chewed the meat,
Breaking bones and grinding teeth.
The boy, he stared down at the prize,
Same dull look crept in his eyes.

Soon enough the deed was done,
Sisters eaten, one by one.

"Lyle, dear, you must abide.
Be a good boy, crawl inside."
