Spoken word by C. Renee Kiser 

The bell rings-
You got me hung, teach, for a while
on a kind of darkness I'd only seen in movies
And I thought I knew + The Dark + so well
But I didn't know NOTHING, till I met you
You'd write Love on the blackboard - backwards
And I'd shrug it off as a joke- 
You were that fun teacher with jokes
I laughed all the way to the madhouse
I kept getting bad grades on purpose 
So I could get spanked 
Yeah, I was hot for teacher
But like school, you'd rarely say something true -
Lies became the lesson
You taught me to forget myself-
To know the Devil is alive and kicking (inside me)
To forget myself  - so that I can remember 
THAT'S THE GAME 
We are the blueprints +++
Seems I'm always drifting asleep in class, 
Falling down that damn rabbit hole
But {this Alice} is the one who knows what's up
Seems I always end up in the principal's office
Cause I'm not gonna paint those roses red
But... the course ended and I graduated w/ honors
Teach taught me how to burn,
How to walk through flames like a goddamn angel, 
How to repair my wings, how to purify my soul, 
How to choose + Light +
Because I'd finally seen the darkest corners of myself
(mirrored to me),
How to blow the dust off the blueprint

Casey Renee Kiser's work (a.k.a. snail viXen) closely examines mainstream’s distorted ideas of beauty.
Always quirky and armed with bold confessional dynamite, her humor is uncompromising, often abrupt and unsettling. Her poems explore identity, emotional abuse, and healing within complicated relationships. She resides in a magical place called The Crystal Garden. Come on over, we have cookies ;) and healing, through dark poetry.

We say, Tell your story. 
Get it all out then,  let it go!
Don't take it with you. 
It's too heavy to carry up the mountain.

( or the mushroom, if you're a snail ;)

I don't perfect my songs. They are art the way they come out. They are about the lyrics, not perfection.
