About Them

Gone

Fenom

lurking in the background
noticed
but unaware
calling out in silence
without knowing I was there
until I could no longer
keep myself away

my tentative approaching
offering softly spoken words
to see if I was welcomed
before I let it go
words with unknown meaning
inexplicably emerging
attached
to your face

slightly panicked answers
to questions sent my way
firmly voicing reason
be still
it will come
just wait

you recognized one aspect
of who I'm meant to be
of who I always was
I have found the other
accepted it
and finally
found peace

all because of you
your no nonsense manner
and your approachable gates
gentle strength
reminding me
be still
it will come
just wait

"The purpose of all this, is to be fearlessly human on the page."

Thank you for the fast cars
rough language
fight in your veins
smoke in your
death-proof-tongue

Thank you for the
seas
moons
stars
explored on your boat
For the sand
the grit
the raw life
on the construction sites
The ladies
and the odd whiskey

Thank you for your passion
Your tell it like it is
Your words
those words you own
thank you for them


Thank you for every pointer
every critique
every bash
every fight
every time
you called me "Mr Lip"

But surely this
Thank you for the dream
the dream to be
utterly human
on the page

i still look back and think
never again and never the same
as it was
where we were this close
to everything unsaid  
under, overstated but fully understood
in spaces, dots, burning eyes
all the best of laughter in empty rooms

you kept the thread to measure
how deep was the dark
how close the light
delicately, purposefully laid
for the lost of us
reaching for the greenest in us -
it led to truth

and maybe you are meant to be the keeper
laying a delicate thread
because we're not easily led by rod and staff
we were all born kicking
bucking off the elders' gods

they will never know us

As I came to this site. You my moderator, taught me to write my truth.
My story. No matter if my grammar sucked .. misspelled words.
You never stop encouraging me. I cannot begin to show you my gratitude.
I would not even know how or where to begin.
As I would read your poetry.  When you would update me, when you were gone .
Knowing you where on the road.
I would always check to see, when you where on.
To know you made it back safe. No, Cali ... I am not a crazy stalker, lol.

You are the most prolific writer, I have ever read.
The truth of childhood, penned down.
Captured my attention  immediately.
I thought to myself. My god, here is a writer exposing his truths.
I can do this . I can release all of the , emotional trauma, drama.
Joys as I, penned downed memories lost in the deep crevices,
protected in my mind.
To one day, I hoped I  could bring them to me again.

You did that. You, and the numerous Master poets,
that guided me along this path.
The difference about you, amidst these beautiful Masters.
Of,  Dark, Erotica, Spiritual, Prose,Anger, Drug , Upbeat,
Observational, and Story.
No matter what you write. No matter what the subject.
I can read hints, that sometimes mimic my life story.

Truths of your familial. Your beautiful dedications to your Mother .  
Hell ,the way you write about women.
Shit, you have the knowledge of our mind ,body,
affections and deception down to a tee.
The lovers you write to. The racists pigs , you and I,
have faced. All come down to one obvious conclusion.
Today as the Man you have become.
Always, you have taken the higher ground.
Genuinely a gentlemen. Respect is earned by you,
never to just be given away.

Never, have you ever, made me feel beneath you.
You have always treated me with gentle critiques.
I have learned so much from you.  
You are my teacher of poetic truths..
And you have never known that.
You have just been yourself.  
Kind. Human. Gifted with your talented quill.
Thank You.

Always Poetic Peace.....

Not Just One

I am not in the know
of any of you
in the skin
We only know of the other
through our words

To me, this place is sacred
a place where I no longer hide
somewhere that holds
no judgement

Each and every read
of my sick and sometimes
lovely thoughts
makes my heart sing

My poem isnt for just for one
it is for all of you
that claim this place
whatever it may be

A place of escape
and I could only dream
of being half the poets
you all are here

Deep thanks to all
that have read
what this Mysterious Lady
calls nothing but her
mindless thoughts....

Penance    (for Devilish)

Disengage         
let Your Cage         
evaporate         
        
this fetid pool of flesh         
primitive in how it lets         
microscopic dread embed         
        
YOU Never bled         
rivers flow Red         
only in Convents         
        
YOU remain as pure         
as JEHOVAH`s         
favorite Whore         
        
In other words         
        
You are MORE         
than Us scores         
of cowering cocks         
locked in suits         
        
Im not         
        
but make NO excuse         
for my own weakness         
the WARNINGS         
I resist         
        
I seek You         
as I seek         
the Abyss         
to fall Eternally         
enmeshed in Your Sweets         
        
will You Grant         
my existence Complete?         
        
We both Agree         
Our Substance         
MORE than Meat         
        
shed wretched disease         
that cleaves         
when We secrete         
        
Soon we`ll sail         
beyond the         
frail casings         
that anchor         
Our intense         
Embracing        
        
We`ll fly beyond         
this putrid         
primordial pond         
where slimy fish         
and their ilk         
cant help but         
writhe in soiled         
stench of mud         
of Earth         
so far         
the ONLY         
Mode of Birth         
        
WE will coast         
above the         
refuse of         
gross, toasted,         
Silicone based         
Race         
        
WE LOVE         
outside JEHOVAH`s         
experimental         
Disgrace
