love will drag us to hell
I watched you circle mounds of feathery ashes with nicotine laced fingers
thirteen long winters, under the red moon. The sea did not part in the love-
bed-divide. The crows stopped chattering out of boredom of colors,
the bedroom walls collapsed-in-wayward. Knowing love will drag us to hell.
You don’t get much sleep, do you darling?
With all those ghosts hanging around the ceilling, fascinated by the monotony
sooner or later out of habit we’ll lace the arrows with sex and choc-a-late,
tossing rules of Sun-tzu in the air. Passing withered...

strange girl
my internal ache won't fade
it hurts to be the strange girl
that people see
but never really listen to
bipolar mania keeps everyone at a distance
no one wants to be associated
with the crazy lady who hear's voices
I try so hard to blend in
it doesn't work
there's just something different about me
I laugh at the same jokes
but I laugh too loud
causing some to stare
I clap with the beat of the world
always out of rhythm
for the life of me I can't seem to get it
then there are my...

Lollipop
Love to have one
with me
pulling it out
unwrapping the cellophane
Pressing it slowly
against pouting
lips
then inserting fully
While I watch
others
especially the men
become fixated
Admiring my skill
determination
to get to the stem
then chew it accordingly
All the while
contemplating
bringing one home
to share elsewhere

Cinnamon Girl
Tall and willowy
lithe
fit
sublime
With ivory skin
smooth as lust itself
dappled lightly
with ruddy spice
Long ginger locks
drape down silky
hinting
at what lies further south
Perfect sweet sultress
Salem girl for sure
drawing pentagrams
on my heart
How you do
enchant
beguile
undo

Onslaught
Texting
sexting
nexting
how it does so perplex
Any song I want
DVR stuffed to the max
camped out on fb, Twitter, Instagram
IMing anyone anywhere anytime
So why is it then
I feel this expanse of hollowness
filling me up
from the inside
How I long for a
true friend
to share endless coffee
along with her secrets
Even more for my
tender lover
reading me his newest poetry
while I lie looking up ... translating the clouds

Sizzled Cravings!
Sizzled Cravings.
I'm steaming my nudity
You're cooking
freshly showered
drenched hair
towel left to warm the floor
The kitchen counter
becomes my burlesque stage
lit in your
alluring stare
you revel
in the backdrop of
my exposed
cravings
With that hungry look
you cannot resist
shifting towards me
honoring my body with
all your attention
parts of you enter me
...one finger
tongues dance
slow satisfaction
...in
out...

little deaths of a poet
we die within our creation
little pieces of our soul is given
so that each poem
may be gifted
with the song of the living
it is our sacred debt to the universe
to be bearers of light in this world
it is of the giver's free will
to lose themselves to their art
sit back and watch it
like a mama hen
nervous over her hatchling
while it takes its first steps
some are shaky
others take off running
it calls to the peoples
within it's song so secret
only those set on this journey
will ever...

Poet
You're like no
one
I've ever met
that I've never met
Seeing past all
these walls
these excuses
these lies
Sifting thru splintered
facets
silly scattered shards
lying all about me
Picking
choosing
rearranging them
into my beauty
Spilling your ink
across the parchment
dipping deep
to sign my heart
one
I've ever met
that I've never met

Distillation
Such deft deception
in my art
laying layer upon layer
with each line
Only to pare
remove
winnow down ...
polishing always
Choosing each word
inspecting thusly
turn it over
till it is ripe
Then mulling about
its placement
within longer languid lines or
solitude
Always my ear bent towards
cadence
flow
truth
in my art
laying layer upon layer
with each line
Only to pare
remove
winnow down ...
polishing always
Choosing each word
inspecting thusly
turn it over
till it is ripe
Then mulling about
its placement
within longer languid lines or
solitude
Always my ear bent towards
cadence
flow
truth

Poetic Slut
Why is it then
that I'm so damn easy
tumbling with just
a mere scribble of verse
Swept away by any
smooth sweet stanza
to avow tender love
eternal
Is it worse than buying
such lame pick up lines
meant to separate me
from my Vicky Secrets
Yet here I once again
find myself
undone
clichéd
Heart trying to outrace
itself
falling in love
with falling in love
that I'm so damn easy
tumbling with just
a mere scribble of verse
Swept away by any
smooth sweet stanza
to avow tender love
eternal
Is it worse than buying
such lame pick up lines
meant to separate me
from my Vicky Secrets
Yet here I once again
find myself
undone
clichéd
Heart trying to outrace
itself
falling in love
with falling in love
