2020 hell
I hate this century with turmoil boiling within nowhere to go
I scream inside myself holding tight to my anger
I rage at rioters out of control
building, building with no release
it's insane what we're doing but I understand it
repression, obsession, oppression
COVID 19 picking off the weak
thousands dying I look skyward
no blue skies why?
California is burning
ash rains down on me
what else is coming?
a bullet to the brain?
displaced anger, damn it I miss the seventies
nowhere to run, no turning...
I scream inside myself holding tight to my anger

no blue skies why?
California is burning
ash rains down on me

a bullet to the brain?
displaced anger, damn it I miss the seventies

I'm guilty of being schizophrenic sometimes I write poems people don't understand
it's when I'm battling delusions you can't see
I'm guilty of feeling too much when you take a slice at me I bleed internally
I won't have you feel sorry for me
I can handle my monsters by writing about them
what I can't handle is being judged for them
she's out of her head I'm going to block her
then pick up her friends like discarded playing cards
shuffle them and I'm all in
bully her publically defame her
then play the victim

Song For An Eager Soul
Inside,
grows a frightening calm,
passive, beneath
remnants of lavendar
severed, hung to dry.
I am
the mountain eroded,
worn, emotions jutting
upwards, I am dissolved for preservation
Discolored beams
mirror the clouds,
torn by the echo of
my eager soul.
Psychotic voices drip
into recesses of an unwell mind that waits
Across my face lines
tell a tale of the acacia that weeps.
Its yellow flowers grafted in roots stretch wide against the mossy surface of my mind ...

Across my face lines
tell a tale of the acacia that weeps.
Its yellow flowers grafted in roots stretch wide against the mossy surface of my mind ...

peculiar home.
ashes and soot
swirling
throughout the air,
breezes
of burned remnants
whirling
untethered— unbound
floating
around
to finally
find
a
singular
quite specifically
peculiar
home
amidst all the
painful heartache;
bones
that will
surely
rebreak
when love's
cremated
remains....

the vastness
I call to the inky blackness of space
through time and wormholes, I send tendrils
infinite time watches
recording the happenings
space is alive with feeling
endless eyes to see is the vastness
the stars look on in innocence
in violence galaxies collide
a consummation of sorts
new stars are born from them
time wrinkles and expands
walking through history
we are able to gain knowledge
entering into a sacred oath with the cosmos
to intervene on the behalf of the species
such a delicate balance

Between the Deep and Me
death on the shore
under the full Hunter’s moon,
my fight, a trophy
in your chest pocket
as you leave me for high tide;
there’s nothing now
between the deep and me,
save a few stars standing
in my way
under the full Hunter’s moon,
my fight, a trophy
in your chest pocket
as you leave me for high tide;
there’s nothing now
between the deep and me,
save a few stars standing
in my way

Sacrilegious Psycho'me'try of Sacred Cow Pi Geometry leads to Bovined Encephalopathic Spongiformations
Black Magic
How tragic
Fever, hemorrhagic
burns across your brow
Gored, your Sacred Cow
Learned a hard earned lesson
now didn't you?
Sickness
of a nameless demon
having traveled through
Ouija board from Nether Region
infecting your gourd
Oh, Lord!

melancholia
my soul keens melancholia
deep inside my forest of need
I come forth from the shadows
just to retreat to my asylum
sanctuary for the disenchanted
my heart weeps orchids
they inhabit my desert
alone in the darkness
tears water my garden
I cry inside my human tomb
no one sees my level of misery
I've withdrawn from humanity
my inner demons have my rapt attention
I seek answers only to find more mysteries
my soul ascends the heavens
reaching higher and higher in my search
space is vast and infinite...

shame
the time is nigh
I enter into an understanding
I am more light than darkness
beings of guile watch me intently
unfurl the truth watch hate spin
little omissions burn on the pyre of regret
come hither and lay witness to the revealing
unveiling the dark I strike the giant
evil speaks against itself
with a tongue that slithers it spits acid
I stand square and center
time will tell all cards revealed
the tarot says jealousy is at the heart of things
turn on the eternal wheel
liar, liar pants on fire ...
