Tell Me Sweet Little Lies
The beginning of the algorithm
the first inputs of algorithm
The twirling signs
in the spiraling bodies
of the celestial firmament
The creature
that can capture
your mind
and imagination
your heart
and fascination
the art
of supreme seduction
She has a mind like mine
She has opened my eyes
I came upon the masterpiece
and was stunned by the beauty
wanting to gaze for eternity
Your stars and cosmic dust
exist in my mind also
mind of my mind ...

Aphrodite Rising (II of III)
* *
The branches of a tree took on the shape of a gnarled hand, twisting out of the Earth, reaching out into the darkness, creating the fortified structure of an enriched shadow, in which I stood… Watching. Taking the pulse of my surroundings.
I breathed in the equanimity of a peace that is evolved from confrontations with nightmarish figures in the labyrinths of the underworld of the self, finding a line in the fabric of the night, moving with single minded purpose.
My foot made contact with the wall, propelling my upward grasp to pull me up in one...

Emotional toxicity
These toxic emotions burn through every vein.
Hurt and depression such a familiar pain.
We barely survived left with little of our sanity.
Our beating lust hangs us with thread desperation attached to calamity.
Doomed from the start questioning if love felt was here.
So I peer in hearts past as stains turn to rust and all faith turns to fear.
This emotional prison took me to depths of despair.
I starved for honest loyalty but the heartfelt left me bare.
These tears that are shed are for the bonds that...

petal.
silken images flurry
soft wispy stragglers
how they sway a dance
fluttering tendrils seeded
of a passionate storied romance
hints of dewy skin
taunt to slowly bead
lazily drip
into a scrumptious
purpose driven need
breathless lips
that pouted grin
show a small trace
of a beguiling
devilishly smiling sin
tasting deep
those promises of silent screams
like fervent hushed allows
mouth 'pon mouth
sweet ambrosia laced growls
strong...

Zero Dark Thirty
this is not
a false alarm
his panic has lost
it's bleak charm
the room is small
dark and dirty
he is going all in
zero for thirty
herpetic memories
bring him harm
like used needles
stuck in his forearm
missed meals make
his vision blurry
always light headed
he'd rather not worry
powder and pills
good luck charms
a cheap motel
no fire alarm
she finds him
on the ground
eyes closed
body jerking
no friend
no phone ...

His Strudel is Her Methadone
His Strudel is Her Methadone
She tells her fellow girlfriend and Barista wrapped in one, “When I get in this mood I laugh at everything. I laugh at customers in their faces which isn’t good at work. This happens to me once a week. I spilled coffee on my skirt and it was hilarious.”
A patron says, “Are you are in a funny mood?”
She focuses on her customer at hand, “Oh, sir I’m all ticklish. Give me Xanax to calm me down.”
“Is it my beard or my tattoo that tickles you?”

Love phases
Having crushes as a child
So much innocence
Just holding hands was enough
Maybe a winter's kiss
when your lips were blue
Chasing wild geese in the snow
Stopping there was easy
You didn't know who you were
what you wanted
But now you're grown
You've come into your own
Desire is apparent
When that special one appears
The palms of a lover
come so close to what's real
Living was easy
But loving came with a cost
Passion uprooted you
Feelings were tossed
Together...

because, character.
Don't give up on people
Return kindness
with kindness
Tell. The. Truth.
Have a glorious sense of humor,
about all things.
Don't ascribe to adolescent drama.
Making mistakes is human.
Remember that while accepting others
will always make mistakes too.
Try to forgive that which isn't inherently evil.
Bask in humility.
... and always,
be brave.
So brave that fear
could never shield honesty
Because there's unmitigated
honor in being real
To become better
To be better
...

angel from above
I am lucky to have the gift
With the words I am so swift,
To explain the good and real
That I find for your appeal,
Words they come as if by magic
Erupting out in style volcanic,
Muse explodes with every rhyme
Matching words is so sublime,
I will never have words enough
To describe this angle form above.

Morning Dew
glistening
like a morning dew
oozing, dripping
out of you
Aphrodite
taking form
you're a goddess
now reborn...
tantalizing
fingers slide
'round your mound
and too inside
eye to eye
and fingers too
touching me
as I touch you...
penetrating
in between
thighs apart
now oozing cream
tasty sips
on probing tongue -
your morning dew
has just begun
like a morning dew
oozing, dripping
out of you
Aphrodite
taking form
you're a goddess
now reborn...
tantalizing
fingers slide
'round your mound
and too inside
eye to eye
and fingers too
