The Master
of epic word play
and assonance
going from dark
personal pieces to
elaborate erotica
such eclectic ink
with karma, zodiac
sanskrit and eye
am truly in awe
of how he paints
sages and visions
in mystical scriptures
visionary prophecies
for us poets to see
eye adore him for
facing his demons
and his shadow side
fighting the serpents
the twilight inside
observational love
erotica or mysterious
ancient and cosmic poetry ...

False Friends
False pictures around my face
False hands around my place
Can't breathe behind this haze
No, this isn't some temporary phase
Enemy or friend
To fall or to stand
Can you tell me when does it end?
Your smiling means to hate
Same words from the same tape
Lying and fake
It's plain to see, but hard to take
Going over the thin ice
Before you speak think twice
You rape my mind with lies
Read the novel, Lord of the Flies
It's kicking me in my head
It's driving me fuckin' mad
I can't believe...
False hands around my place
Can't breathe behind this haze
No, this isn't some temporary phase

It's driving me fuckin' mad

Ride!
I've been up, down, underground
North, South, spun around
K-9, Doctor Who
Christopher Robin, Winnie-the-Pooh
Space odyssey, on the moon
Ziggy plays, Bowie in tune
Murder on the Orient Express
Agatha Christie, Poirot arrests
Up the junction, Wizard of Oz
Brain malfunction, just because
I've seen the stars, Venus and Mars
Back to the future in Marty's car
Crashing to Earth (still in search)
I'll hop on the bus, jump a cab
Catch the train in the pouring rain
HOME!

Twisted Truths
Blindfolded
and stuffed into this wagon
Subjected
to more than you can handle
Pressuring
ensure acceleration
Gravity
cannot restrain the tension
Endlessly
can't you see
there are no limitations
Stability
a term that has no meaning
Set me free
infinity revealing
Deaden my awareness of conclusions
Persistent
while reasoning delusions
Lift the weight of the world from my shoulders
back and forth we live with unresolved problems
and stuffed into this wagon
Subjected
to more than you can handle
Pressuring
ensure acceleration
Gravity
cannot restrain the tension
Endlessly
can't you see
there are no limitations
Stability
a term that has no meaning
Set me free
infinity revealing
Deaden my awareness of conclusions
Persistent
while reasoning delusions
Lift the weight of the world from my shoulders
back and forth we live with unresolved problems

Part of a complete breakfast
As I reached for a spoon in my kitchen drawer
My hand could sense a growing displeasure
What the hell was I seeing?
Something was crawling on my spoon
It was a Cockroach!
I went into the cabinet, to grab my favorite cereal bowl
The Flintstones that is, Fruity Pebbles, Yum!
As I looked into the cereal bowl,
There were three roaches taking a shit on top of the other
Disgusting!
I know, I know,
Silly rabbit, tricks are for kids
And yes I know the honey nut will help me lower my cholesterol
And I know there's...

Abandoned Liberty
Persistent
With her cold feet forced
Her bland eyes stare
You and I won’t comprehend
Her soul bound by custom
Despotism her pain
Demeanor, dull and dreary
Disown their desolate ways
Forsaken by their faith
Traditions and tyranny
Beliefs, brutality
Mutilation and misery
Suppressed by their sect
Heartbreak and hardships
Subject to suffer
Accused and abused
She’s dressed up but covered
With nowhere to go
Her eyes tell a story
You’ll never know
Her hurt caused by creed ...

Sharp View
since the day he
arrived i am in awe
of his sharp view
& super clever
observations
speaking up
radically poetic
about this fucked
up society and this
new generation
its ignorance
and hatred while
switching it up with
a musical break
his knowledge of
artists & bands in his
backstage stories
with lots of humor is
jaw dropping great yet
don't forget how he bares
his soul in reflective ink

Devotional Radicals
Little Kenny Dewitt was barely 5 years old when he found out by his parents that his heart was wicked
His parents were religious fanatics, who read the good book each and every hour
They isolated little Harry from the rest of the world
His father worked on the farm producing milk & meat to sell in town
His mother was a stay at home mom, strict and overbearing
Many of the locals didn't even know Harry Sack existed
His parents taught him that in order to be faithful to the lord, you must do what we say or want

Lucifer Loves You, Always!
One day my parents were about to go out for a drive
Satan appeared and said, "one of you must die"
He performed some witchery with his hands
Said something foreign that my parents didn't understand
That night mother saw something as she undressed
Lucifer's mark was burned upon her breast
The next day father was relaxing in the tub
A creature flew in the window, named Beelzebub
Satan arrives in many forms
Not just a man with red devil horns
The creature brought in a recipe for maple walnut fudge

Babuska's sarmale
In a snowy Romanian village, during Christmas cheer,
my Babuska spun tales, both delightful and queer.
The tradition was sarmale, a savory delight,
Cabbage wrapped treasures, cooked all through the night.
Meat and rice nestled in leaves so green,
simmered in tomato, a feast so serene.
But woven in laughter and holiday charms
were Babuska’s stories with their quirky alarms:
"Behave well, dear children, lest you wish to be seen
in the pot with the sarmale, simmering and lean."
The children would giggle, eyes...

Searchin for death
Death
I've been looking for you
I have choked life
Shook it by it's scrawny neck
Fucked the taste out of it's mouth
Made it scream
Making it want to die
Now I'm walking alone on the cinder trail
Come on
Show me what you got!
I've been looking for you
I have choked life
Shook it by it's scrawny neck
Fucked the taste out of it's mouth
Made it scream
Making it want to die
Now I'm walking alone on the cinder trail
Come on
Show me what you got!

Innocent until proven stupid
The father appears at a funeral
His wife, daughter & son are all dead
They were shot, execution style
He was home that night
He claimed he was passed out, piss drunk on the bed
They never found the assailants
They never found the gun
2 weeks later he moved in with his girlfriend
He confessed to murdering all of his family
She believed him
They were married one month later
His wife, daughter & son are all dead
They were shot, execution style
He was home that night
He claimed he was passed out, piss drunk on the bed
They never found the assailants
They never found the gun
2 weeks later he moved in with his girlfriend
He confessed to murdering all of his family
She believed him
They were married one month later
