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

No, this isn't some temporary phase

You rape my mind with lies

Lost Traveler
Let's pretend
I traveled over a bend
I went back in time
For no reason or rhyme
To be caught and tried
For someone else's lie
My sentence was death
Uttered under someone's breath
I will not go easy into the night
Once the moon is full I will see the whole site
There are men, women, children and aged souls
All out to see the penalty dolled
I'll be the last to go
Making me witness this horrible show
One was...
I traveled over a bend
I went back in time
For no reason or rhyme
To be caught and tried
For someone else's lie
My sentence was death
Uttered under someone's breath
I will not go easy into the night
Once the moon is full I will see the whole site
There are men, women, children and aged souls
All out to see the penalty dolled
I'll be the last to go

boogie man
my love of boogers began when I was a small child
I would sneeze
and the snot would fly, big mucusy globs running down my face
usually blending with my tears
where asthma was a norm and my breathing constricted
they would let loose and I would eat them
disgusting I know but little did I know I was building immunity
the germs would attack and I would devour them
greenies being favored for their rich salty taste
sliding on down my face
I would often get in trouble for having such a messy nose
my dad insisted it was gross
...

A Sneetch ( after Theodor [Dr] Seuss Geisel )
There are havettes, and have notettes–
yet in all honesty, without possessions
who can tell the difference?!
They appear the same shape –
male and female alike; O! But wait!
is it a tittle of a title they covet?!
Or, perhaps, in all honesty –
it’s a jealousy thing ; O! Me! Why
clonedingus another Sneetch?
We each have our trinkets – we’re all
born completus; O! Yet, it’s not enough!
Some Sneetches choose to be leeches!
Is it fortune, fame they don’t deserve –
but feel they...

Mafioso - The American Dream
Italian, The Irish 'The American Dream'
A sweeping virus reigned supreme...
A new decade of organised crime
Judges paid from doin' time
New York, Chicago, The Heads, The Don
Coke contained cargo, imported from
Bootleg liquor, prostitute beds
Low light flicker, corrupted feds
Fancy sharp suits, rival attacks
Dirty rats, hit-men contracts
Illegal casinos, sunset strip
Cuban, Latino, money trip
Witness protect, the end of the game
Hoods recollect... A ratted out name
A sweeping virus reigned supreme...
A new decade of organised crime
Judges paid from doin' time
New York, Chicago, The Heads, The Don
Coke contained cargo, imported from
Bootleg liquor, prostitute beds
Low light flicker, corrupted feds
Fancy sharp suits, rival attacks
Dirty rats, hit-men contracts
Illegal casinos, sunset strip
Cuban, Latino, money trip
Witness protect, the end of the game
Hoods recollect... A ratted out name

I SAW HER RIDE (LADY GODIVA BY PEEPING TOM)
I saw her ride,
legs to one side,
nothing to hide
amid the street,
while the discreet
let not eyes meet.
Her long thick hair
covered her, bare,
to derriere.
She sat upright
in the dim light
as day met night.
No more I saw -
my eyes went sore
sight did withdraw.
I'd been struck blind,
things could not find.
Guilt seared my mind.
legs to one side,

No more I saw -

sight did withdraw.
I'd been struck blind,

Evolutions
In a butcher and clockmaker tryst
their scion anon gave skills a twist
when gears put together
in slaughterhouse weather
made her a meaty...horologist.

NIGHT TIME THOUGHTS
Here I am just a mortal man in the wee hours in.a beautiful, place to just unwind and shut my mind off. AS I clear out my thoughts amongst the spider webs 🕸️ of deepness of the world. For sure as I sit here amongst, the darkness in the silent of peace and tranquility. AS the fire 🔥 slowly starts warming, my body and spiritually lifting, my spirit to new highs. For it's here in this space and time, I can be free to dream as I think about, what has happen that has change, my own outlet about life. 🤔 For sure in this moment of no time. just space. I slowly began...

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
so here's an ovation to
our one...

X44C Technology borne from Real Art, Paint, Ideas
I developed X44C Technology
Created it in my personal think tank
Taking a real painting
Micromanagement color structure
Enhanced reduced calculated
In reality
All you need is one painting
Like buying shares in a utility stock
Say 1000 shares were purchased for you at birth
Reinvest the dividends
Banging the high quality women at 31
Living off the coast of Monaco
But the irony is, she's not a woman
It's robotic twang, test tube sex, no fault kink
Pretty good, right ?
The raspberries are good right now... ...

Drive
From the Walternate Universes
Delta – 2.0
I had taken a day off from work
There was a lot to think about, to plan and write
I was home alone with nothing but time
When a familiar portal opened nearby
It was my old amigo, my (W)alter ego
Spinning a set of car keys on his index finger
“Bro” I said as we hugged, he smiled and said…
“Let’s go for a drive”
The portal led to a barnlike garage
The sight in front of me left me speechless and stirred
As I walked around the car the top automatically came...

CAPTURED BY THE SIRENS
I had been warned
and knew better as
I swam toward the reefs
where the alluring Sirens
waited to lure and seduce
voyagers venturing on
the sea of life in search
of adventure and pleasure.
I knew well the myth of
Orpheus and Eurydice but
the alluring lyre music and
beauty of the Sirens prohibited
me from saying no. I am
honored and thankful for
YOU,
sweet Siren of the sea of lust.
YES!
You know who you are.
