The NAO Amalgamate Inc. chapter1 part 1
The brown brick building at 1015 Chambers Street was not as easy to find as everyone may have thought. It was surrounded by other buildings that look identical to it. The only stand out feature that it had going for it was a small porcelain vase, off to the right, by the door way had one purple tulip in it.
Before entering the obscure building. Kat made sure to touch up her (tourmaline) red lipstick. Her hair was behaving itself and not puffing out due to the hot, humid day New York was having at the moment.
She was supposed to be on the twelfth floor, room 322. She...

Great Catch! (Lapping it up)
What a great catch,
As you fall into my lap!
It could be a trap,
But I ain't takin' that!
You're a great match,
A really amazing snatch.
Forget about that nap,
Till I've read you like a map!
We're on the right track,
Takin' up the slack,
Never goin' back -
Filling that sweet crack!
As you fall into my lap!
It could be a trap,
But I ain't takin' that!
You're a great match,
A really amazing snatch.
Forget about that nap,
Till I've read you like a map!
We're on the right track,
Takin' up the slack,
Never goin' back -
Filling that sweet crack!

My Spanish Seductora
I shall always remember
sweet Sophia from Spain,
in a backless, red dress that fit so tight.
In an erotic fandango, with passion intertwined,
on that romantic, rainy night,
over me, she swayed in a
seductive lover's dance.
Now, with the falling of
a warm, salvaje rain,
over me, my umbrella
entwines with the wind,
up and down, side to side,
bringing back the memory
of that rainy night.

Prisoner Behind My Eyes
I am a prisoner behind my eyes.
Oh! There is no gatekeeper!
I am trapped forever by psychosis.
And there is no quality of life here within.
My mind is a padded prison cell
where restrained, I throw myself into the walls.
I scream for help, but there is no reply.
I gaze on through my eyes to freedom,
but there is no way to signal for help.
Gazing on over the years helpless,
I’ve grown old and cold towards life.
I don’t feel there is a god to protect me.

Obtuse
Please lord
Spare me of righteousness
Allow me NOT to save souls
Let me bathe in sin
I seek honesty
I worship trust
Yet I am a heathen
To be clear

Cosmic anomaly
Floating in awe towards what appeared a porcelain glaze.
Facing the inescapable pull of that dense, pitch blackhole.
Another cuckoo traveller, bound to grace the twisting whirlpool.
To be folded like origami then distended, mercilessly.

A Bottle Chalks Destiny
A believer curled,
dim eating fed garbage,
hallucinating, inhaling jars,
kitchen lights mulched,
nostrils open, pour quandries raw,
scarred tarpits, unhinged,

arteries blasted, crooked doers,
evil family gatherings,
hone invisible jewels, kidders laugh, mad notice, oats poured, quaker residuals sewn,
titular, underlined, verified, winner,
xrated yahoo zen, applicable, ballpoint, cent,
dole eager fist gall, humane,
intend kink, lament,
may nightmares...

Ravager
I’ve now become
invisible
to women I desire.
I’m easily ignored.
and overlooked.
And if
within an accidental moment
I am seen by chance,
I’m easily discounted
as a man
not worth a second glance.
Age the ravager
age the savager
has striped my flesh
of any comeliness
or kindling fire.

Our healing village is down by the levee in New Orleans. I am deep in Psyche hospital funk. I am curled in a ball on the couch in a fetal pose. My mind is afloat in a Sargasso Sea of drugged peace.
The mind doctors take me off all my meds. I am alert and sitting for a change. Sarah and Pamela, who are counselors, walk by me. Sarah looks at me. “Paul did you know Pamela poses nude for artists in the French Quarter? You should come to a showing of her at the gallery after discharge.”
“That sounds like my cup of tea,” I reply, moon-eyed.

Amarok
You want me to be sweet, that's how I pleased you.
Made you believe in me, that I'm your little sheep.
Your beast. Your Amarok.
Heartless to everyone else, sinking my fangs in those who disobey;
I became the pet of the true monster which was you.
But you never read what my name means.
SICK, SICK, YOU MAKE ME SICK!!
I LIED TO YOU AND FUCKED YOU, JUST TO MAKE YOU TRUST ME.
SICK, SICK, YOU MAKE ME SICK!!
I RIPPED YOUR THROAT OUT AND FRENCH-KISSED YOUR CORPSE BECAUSE THE REAL MONSTER WAS YOU.
I had to watch you break her.
Fearful...

Take this pill whatever colour you desire
Have you ever wondered, or have you not the time to wonder,
about the nature of what is reality?
Do you know what society is, I mean really know what society is?
Society is a story we tell ourselves. A fairy tale told to children
This is society's truth, an agreed upon story, consciously retold, slightly rewritten,
then retold again and again. Just as the sun sets, so to the full moon shines.
YOU. I. SELF. We are all data fragments in a simulation, nothing more.
We grasp at the illusion like a child grasps a warm blanket. ...

The wall
Do you even think about me?
Do I matter to you at all?
Or am I just a broken memory
On the other side of the wall?
A wall which is nothing to me
A wall which I always look past
A wall which takes the hope of others
A wall that seems so vast
And yet it seems so paper thin
So tiny, weak and dead
So how does this futile barricade
Trap loved ones in their heads?
