Beat
Fold me
into
your blanket
like sheets
your soothing flesh
cooling my heat
sheathing my rod
into your mesh
we mesh
our flesh meets
gates pressed
firmly against me
like raw meats
we simmer from the heat
our hearts beating
like a drum beat
we're set
into
your blanket
like sheets
your soothing flesh
cooling my heat
sheathing my rod
into your mesh
we mesh
our flesh meets
gates pressed
firmly against me
like raw meats
we simmer from the heat
our hearts beating
like a drum beat
we're set

Haltia, spirit
watchers atone alder woods
their leafy baren
mistress fingerbones
tree wizardry
chatter never beginning
nor ending
bending
before risen sun sinks
rasping rooks their songs
sing feathered
white maidens
silvery dressed
I have become
the epithet called earth
standing among frozen stream
staring into rustic figments
otter opus
empress ermine
furry fox frock
a scythe cut ...

DIY
electricity races beneath skin
every nerve endin ignites
seekin relief
fragments of memory and fantasy collide
motion of practiced precision
establishin rhythm
slow
quick
tighten
loosen
repeat
friction breeds heat
along hardened flesh
til movement grows urgent
and my body responds
with primal recognition
tense with anticipation
pressure builds
meltin boundaries of self
heavy with promise
hypersensitive
raw
aware of every little sensation
losin myself where I find release
every nerve endin ignites
seekin relief
fragments of memory and fantasy collide
motion of practiced precision
establishin rhythm
slow
quick
tighten
loosen
repeat
friction breeds heat
along hardened flesh
til movement grows urgent
and my body responds
with primal recognition
tense with anticipation
pressure builds
meltin boundaries of self
heavy with promise
hypersensitive
raw
aware of every little sensation

Sawdust
Sawdust memories embracing the echoes
long to be remembered as the house
that lost its clock since the window
of time grew too large for the spot
with traces of the old eight-cup pot
now sawdust memories

The X-twitter this morning was disappointing it consisted of 60% Musk and 40% Trump bragging about how great they are at winning the battle of saving America from the disaster of paying the poor too much and reducing medical aid to the old who must learn to fend for themselves It is tiresome to see the same triumphant smiles and one wonders if they ever sit down asking if their presence in the oceans of opinions matters do they doubt themselves, are they ever unsure if they might be wrong, is their preening too powerful an impregnable wall hindering them to have souls,...

My Anger is Black
Nothingness begets nothingness
A never ending spiral of bleak matter
You gaze into the void of me
Peering over the edge
Watch yourself
You may be drawn in
Evilness
Death
Sin
Take your pick
It’s where I’ve ended and began again
Cursed and haunted
My cracked soul
Broken
Bloodied
Tormented
Brought me to my knees
Hello Darkness, my old friend
A never ending spiral of bleak matter
You gaze into the void of me
Peering over the edge
Watch yourself
You may be drawn in
Evilness
Death
Sin
Take your pick
It’s where I’ve ended and began again
Cursed and haunted
My cracked soul
Broken
Bloodied
Tormented
Brought me to my knees
Hello Darkness, my old friend

Surprise Guest
You’ve had a taste
Of my razor blade tongue
Left shredded and bloodied
Barely standing
Your pleas for peace
Wafting in the air
Alongside your white flag
I agreed to
A cease fire
Words remained unsaid
Promises unmade
Deeds unsung
Lingered
In the destruction
I gritted my teeth until my jaw broke
I’ve outgrown your
Kind of kindness
Your type of guilt
Nice doesn’t fit me anymore
I’m taking back my blade
Watch your back
Of my razor blade tongue
Left shredded and bloodied
Barely standing
Your pleas for peace
Wafting in the air
Alongside your white flag
I agreed to
A cease fire
Words remained unsaid
Promises unmade
Deeds unsung
Lingered
In the destruction
I gritted my teeth until my jaw broke
I’ve outgrown your
Kind of kindness
Your type of guilt
Nice doesn’t fit me anymore
I’m taking back my blade
Watch your back

Inferno
I have to watch what chemicals I use now
Laundry detergent
Body wash
Body lotion
Hand soap
Makeup
Shampoo and conditioner
Hair dye
From now on
I’ll be
Coloring my hair
With the blood
Of all those
Who wronged me

You Know What You Done
Verse 1)
The doctor gave me bad news, Lord, my time ain’t long.
But I stood tall in the shadow, tried to stay strong.
When I needed you the most, girl, you turned and ran.
Left me fightin' this demon with my bare hands.
(Chorus)
You know what you done, and it won’t wash clean.
A soul like yours, girl, it’s downright mean.
Left a dying man to battle alone,
May the devil take you down to his throne.
(Verse 2)
We had love like fire, so I thought it seemed.
But fire burns cold when the truth intervenes.
You packed your...

Waste Not, Want Not
Ripping out my lungs and a kidney
Until you tell me you don’t need it
But it is too late
Because I am writhing on the ground
In a puddle of my blood and tears
Wondering why
I gave things I needed
To someone
Who already had them
Until you tell me you don’t need it
But it is too late
Because I am writhing on the ground
In a puddle of my blood and tears
Wondering why
I gave things I needed
To someone
Who already had them

Glass of Water
Water fountain
Spitting out hot water
Third degree burns
Cover my arm
How long have I had these wounds?
Was the water always this hot?
Spitting out hot water
Third degree burns
Cover my arm
How long have I had these wounds?
Was the water always this hot?

Miami!
Calle Ocho
Look a roacho
it must be Miami!
teeming with humanity
cut with a knife humidity
Miami it must be
La la
Mama Mia!
Santeria!
In the canals the dead goats float
Out in the bay
on any given day
square grouper are afloat
See them from your speeding boat
A penthouse on Brickell Ave
Big bucks you must have
or else it's Kendall Drive for you
Yikes, that's me! what can I do?
Oh, neato
another mosquito
soon you'll have no blood
Will Miami be here
in another year ...
