I tried to hide my colorful addiction
In the comfort of my brownstone
My silent obsession lay bare in front of me, craving the color of the newest rendition
Rocking in my bed, leg twitching, waiting for the crack of dawn
Willing the need for the hunger to be gone
Metamorphosing from a sleepy head
Once I rose from my Queen Size bed
A full blown sultry diva to welcome the calling of the birds’ morning song
Panting in...

Liquid Echoes Of Despair
chasing shadows lost
inside an empty shot glass
whiskey and false hope
inside an empty shot glass

Brother's Keeper
Youngest of three brothers
I'm stuck being his
Oldest Brother Keeper
Makes you feel like shit
Because your oldest brother
Likes the creature called
Hard Liquor which causes
Him to do crazy things like
engaging in sexual congress
With an 18 year old girl
Which is very creepy
Because she has Daddy Issues
I'm stuck being his
Oldest Brother Keeper
Makes you feel like shit
Because your oldest brother
Likes the creature called
Hard Liquor which causes
Him to do crazy things like
engaging in sexual congress
With an 18 year old girl
Which is very creepy
Because she has Daddy Issues

Chasing the Dragon
filtered hues of rainbow
filled the fantastic landscape
where wishes thought of, lived
during sleepless nights
with the colours of distant
memories filled the space
of his meandering dreams
he surfed on shiny surface
he didn't want to wake up
to a drab existence
picking meagre coins
that jingle in his pocket
in tandem with his dripping sweat
listening to old songs
from an ancient radio
plaintive songs of lost love
he went home to sleep
daily, chasing the dragon
knowing he was trapped
in...

Welcome To My Scurvy
Barnacles of tyranny ghosting urchins between
my ears listening to the pulse of hypochondriacs
shadowing my fears, screaming..."Get out of my
house." From the crawlspace where my eyes
shine like spotlights on a highway following the
yellow lines to bury me in my contagious scurvy

shadowing my fears, screaming..."Get out of my

Coffee
Black and insatiable
Cream and a little hazelnut
Barista, you fill up my cup
Your scent, always seems to interrupt
Hot, steamy and always wet
In love with you since the day we met
Your caffeine, my only outlet
No good for me, but no regret
I can’t live without you in my soul
Coming or going? I never know
When you’re with me, I lose control
Coffee, I’m addicted to your flow
Cream and a little hazelnut
Barista, you fill up my cup
Your scent, always seems to interrupt
Hot, steamy and always wet
In love with you since the day we met
Your caffeine, my only outlet
No good for me, but no regret
I can’t live without you in my soul
Coming or going? I never know
When you’re with me, I lose control
Coffee, I’m addicted to your flow

Hardly enough time
To write anything that could be called
“poetry”
but the evening was well spent
After a solid week of
inexplicable tears, frustration,
crises of faith,
self-diagnosis with any number of
mental disorders and neurodivergences…
It was surely time to enjoy
the finer points of losing my mind,
aided by impulsive over-consumption,
tipsy and giggling,
squelching the urge to heckle the movie
that others were watching so soberly,
enjoying this absurd buzz of normalcy
when my brain feels...

Addiction is not only being slave to drugs, under cocaine control, or beneath a boss's hand kowtowing like a meek sheep, enslaved to their swaying stick, to their whims and extravagant desires, to look like a tamed animal,, you may also fall into slavery being a dependently addicted user, when those drugs, those psychedelics like LSD or mescaline, assail your whole attention, play on your real optical visions, give you a negative feedback on the world around you, affect your life for the worst, make of you an object of...

post brexit
I miss the Polish shops and the Polish woman in our local Costa who’d serve us coffee with compassion, but who is no longer here. I couldn’t afford the biscuits, but seeing I had little money she’d say, just take one, my dear

I Can Make You Feel Good
You like that dont you
"Yes I think I do"
There's no one else here except me and you
I can make you feel good
You realize don't you, no one cares but me
I'm the only one that can really see
The fear, the pain, that you endure everyday
If you let me I can make them go away
Just allow me once to be your friend
All rips and tears I will mend
Overeating or afraid of food
Just lie with me, I can make you feel good
Abuse, I'll end of any kind
With a little time I'll heal your mind
Take off everything and get...
