12 days of Christmas Violence
My true love gave
12 Christmas presents
for the 12 days of
Christmas she gave me
1 gun from hell
2 burning heads
3 heaven guns
4 katana swords
5 Golden bodies
6 screaming maidens
7 Wonders of the World
8 Freaks of the Night
9 Ninjas dancing
10 Court Jesters
11 Pipe Bombs
12 Rocket Launchers
So my true love has
Given me the World
12 Christmas presents
for the 12 days of
Christmas she gave me
1 gun from hell
2 burning heads
3 heaven guns
4 katana swords
5 Golden bodies
6 screaming maidens
7 Wonders of the World
8 Freaks of the Night
9 Ninjas dancing
10 Court Jesters
11 Pipe Bombs
12 Rocket Launchers
So my true love has
Given me the World

Sardonic Narco
Sardonic narco illicit aphrodisiac, gathering fools
and marionettes of depraved narcissistic minds
in the classic shadow of a rhododendron.
Dancing in the primal, tall, dark, and intimate
of nonsensical risque with the cloak of insanity.
Reclining on the twilight Bergerac of decadent
souls, sardonic narco illicit aphrodisiac.
and marionettes of depraved narcissistic minds
in the classic shadow of a rhododendron.
Dancing in the primal, tall, dark, and intimate
of nonsensical risque with the cloak of insanity.
Reclining on the twilight Bergerac of decadent
souls, sardonic narco illicit aphrodisiac.

The Ghosts' unshared Story
shadows breed in twilight realms
there secrets blurred within boundaries
between light and darkness
whispered unfulfilled promises
there ghosts wander listlessly
not so white but faded grey
they look for wisps of promises
made by cruel lying lovers
in spectral robes perpetually blown
by invisible wind unfelt by some
their anguished cries for redemption
are moans when heard by fleshed humans
they weave their stories
between the shining moon
and the grey oncoming morn
spectral figures sorrow torn ...
there secrets blurred within boundaries
between light and darkness
whispered unfulfilled promises
there ghosts wander listlessly
not so white but faded grey
they look for wisps of promises
made by cruel lying lovers
in spectral robes perpetually blown
by invisible wind unfelt by some
their anguished cries for redemption
are moans when heard by fleshed humans
they weave their stories
between the shining moon
and the grey oncoming morn
spectral figures sorrow torn ...

He left this body here for you
He left me
dressed
in black,
hands bound,
blindfolded,
so that I
couldn’t
reach for him
couldn’t look for him;
so that when my
spine crumbled
all I could do was
whisper
‘don’t’ as I
heard the door
pull shut.
He left
with cruel
words wrapped
in kindness
He told me to
find another
playmate
...

Losing My Grip
I feel my sanity slipping!
Controlling my anger
Has become a chore
For the last vestiges
Of making peace
I’ve ceased gripping!
The onslaught of frustration
Has reached my core
Little things set me off daily
Compassion for ignorance
I faintly possess
But dealing with
Downright manipulators of truth
Has ignited the fires of my stress!
I don’t suffer fools gladly
And I can’t deal with those
Who take advantage
But this world is filled
With Satan’s thoughts
And my emotions are...
Controlling my anger
Has become a chore
For the last vestiges
Of making peace
I’ve ceased gripping!
The onslaught of frustration
Has reached my core
Little things set me off daily
Compassion for ignorance
I faintly possess
But dealing with
Downright manipulators of truth
Has ignited the fires of my stress!
I don’t suffer fools gladly
And I can’t deal with those
Who take advantage
But this world is filled
With Satan’s thoughts
And my emotions are...

Fallen
Fallen, deep in my darkness...
But what if it's the best of me?
the part that connects
with the hurts of the world
On the other side I sense
the oneness that eludes me
Here in coolness of shadows
I can feel my own warmth
.
But what if it's the best of me?

Ghost in the deep forest
Early morning walk
A misty path
The river sleeping
The time i pass
The forest a legend
A book of past
An eerie aura
A spell was cast
The earth was mild
To stir the dust
I heard a whisper
A tune in the hush
Pan was hidden
A foggy ghost
The tune echoed
The sparkling moss
As the shine was peeping
flickering between the trunks
A first poetic chapter
in Nature's charm
A misty path
The river sleeping
The time i pass
The forest a legend
A book of past
An eerie aura
A spell was cast
The earth was mild
To stir the dust
I heard a whisper
A tune in the hush
Pan was hidden
A foggy ghost
The tune echoed
The sparkling moss
As the shine was peeping
flickering between the trunks
A first poetic chapter
in Nature's charm

Deep Inside
Deep Inside
Tell me,
When you look at me
Do you see what I see?
Do you see the man that's actually me,
Or do you see what you want me to be?
Do you see the man who sometimes cries,
Cause he'll never think of himself as "handsome"?
Do you see the man who skips meals,
So he'll end up classified as "skinny"?
Or do you see the one that makes sure everyone else around him?
Is happy?
The one who'll give anything to see people smile
So they don't end up broken
Like he is?
It's like looking at...

A Midnight Sonnet
i need you asphyxiated... emancipated...
finger-fucking a vibe...tunneled...pummeled...
collapsing headaches...home grown
moaning to my scripture...ripping off your alleged panties
your mound...petted...spanked
feel my verbiage seep...
deep inside your bone marrow....as a hieroglyphic rumor
spill out your sorrows...a howl from your hollows
thrusting hips to an imaginary sky...
i burrow past all the why's of your unspoken deity
stripped of your piety...silently...yet so loud...

The Horrifying Nightmares
If you promise not to speak about this, I'll tell you my story. It's not out of shame or embarrassment that I prefer confidentiality. It's just that, well...not many people believe such a wild tale.
You see, around this time every year, I am tormented by a nightmare. I've tried to stay up without sleeping but I inevitably fail at my attempts each time. It's as though I'm under some menacing spell that refuses to break its hold. But I believe I may know the source of its origins.
I've been a Buddy Holly fan since I can remember. His guitar playing...

Exorcizing Demons (Part 4) (ExercisingDemons near-collab)
Walking abandoned faint section
of steel train track entranced
by opulent bug with a god complex
in murder of crows nest
Dante inferno hallucination drapes
bewitch stage scene entry
absent benevolence malice feint
convenes eternal rest
Fallen endlessly soul struck fowl
bestial wraith outside carnal realms
only rule at Tartarus entrance
was Allowed Temporary burning
Carnivorous phoenix leading eye (Job 1:12 view)
dichotomy Shrieks aerial ablaze
legendary incarnate landed
Craves carnage fiercely feast...
