Tales of Torture Vol. II

Although the poems have slowed, the torture has more than doubled
And so I show them hoes, this white boy still is troubled
I gaze at my toolbox, but nothing catches my eye
A maze of bloodied rocks, that have since been tossed aside
Then the lightbulb shines, right above my head
My yearning donger whines, but soon it will be fed
I remove my bedroom's doorstopper, and sit in seated position
I will now perform the "Nut Popper", and send cock to mortician
Soon the door is swung ajar, hard cock to protect the wall
And with force of moving car, it connects with cock and ball

ROCK AND BONE

it was stone  
what broke me,  
the femur  
like a puzzle
in a swollen pocket  
of pus,  
biting  
like a rabid squirrel  
 
mama say  
rocks in my head  
put me on that  
mountain  
but i say  
"shit, mama,  
i just want to  
see something  
real"  
 
bone ain't nothin'  
next to stone  
but those rocks  
warmed by the sun  
held me  
almost tender  
'til the stretcher  
came

touchstone

 
touch my mystery with your fingertips
weighty existence is the form of a stone
vibrating energies that lift the soul

tumbled in water
my rough edges became smooth
calming the spirit of the beholder
find me lining the shore of an obliging lake or river
time itself has delivered me there

I watch humanity with curiosity
sending out my well wishes
I have dense matter
everything has spirit

I am no less
as part of a mountainside or in a riverbed
keep me as a touchstone when you're feeling stressed

beauty is in the eye of the beholder
I am ancient I've been around longer than you have
keeping record of all that has transpired
I am a sum of a whole
keep me sacred in your memory

The Stone

I hold it
Hot hot
In my hand
My eyes shoot
In Axis Mundi
Ever opposite
It’s grounding source
However similar
It’s everlong
Time imprinted
Held snug
My eyes
To the stars
Like this diamond
Chrysalis
Of Chrystaline
Hot hot
In my hand
My eyes shoot
Im Axis Mundi
Beyond the heat
Axis of Petdition

The Dam by the Bridal Shop

How we fall
like the river
ends
at the cliffs
and we did too.
Anyone's edges
will show true
after years of
the rain
eats
away
at you.
The rock will become black
and the ground
falls
through.
How we fall
out of the blue
a few
bad words
a few
sad
truths

Stone Faced

I stood and watched you
drive away
not so much as a wave
or finger
kicking at the dirt I uncovered
a rock
picking it up I noted it’s
jagged edges
shortly afterwards introducing it to
my pocket  
maybe good luck
maybe not
over the next few months  
that rock
turned over between my fingers until
rubbed smooth
about a year later filling up my car at the  
corner store
afterwards I headed inside to buy a
six pack
was a few cents shy on
the price
as my hand searched
my pocket
the clerk nodded towards the
change bowl
about the same time feeling something in
my pocket
the rock felt comfortable in
my hand
like the memory
of you
smooth and cool
yet foreign  
as I dropped it in the bowl
I asked  
think anyone could
use this
the clerk shrugged and said
who knows
I drove off scattering  
pea gravel
as I pulled back onto
the blacktop
a dump truck loaded
with rocks
blew his horn as he
passed by
popped a top on a  
cold one
saluted the trucker and said dropped
my load
good luck with  
all yours
