Lost Boy
in a strange land
on fine white sand
I see you
walking in Perdido
Blue Angels above
trailing their love
I see you
dreaming in Perdido
scaling war forts
in bermuda shorts
I see you
climbing Perdido
Faulkner
words blur
I hear you
breathing Perdido
outside my window
winter’s first snow
I see you
caress Perdido
I see you
drinking in Perdido
your shadow
I know
on fine white sand
I see you
walking in Perdido
Blue Angels above
trailing their love
I see you
dreaming in Perdido
scaling war forts
in bermuda shorts
I see you
climbing Perdido
Faulkner
words blur
I hear you
breathing Perdido
outside my window
winter’s first snow
I see you
caress Perdido
I see you
drinking in Perdido
your shadow
I know

laid to rest
i wonder if my time has come
have i lingered in this life too long
where did it go wrong
where did it not
i could never quite tell if i was getting ahead
or if i was clawing my way out
it was always too close to call
i could chase a butterfly and run into a bee
always blind sided by things i couldn't see
now i want to put everything away
lay down the apples and the violets and all the rest
lay them to rest
i need to rest
everything that ever was a part of me
must be laid to rest forever within me ...

Your Presence
in my life
has potential
to Grow~
To Maturate beyond a gift.
Of human love,
Of human affection,
Of human approval,
Of human acceptance. . .
It don't make me no mind;
AND I wouldn't.
Trust me.
I shall accept all
and the wee orts
with or without duck clothing.
My teal coat
and eider shirt I've shed
eons ago~
for you.
If we, You and me,

Wads of Hidden Lust
So many difficult words strewn across
my desk and crumpled up atop the floor
while I try to make 3 pointers
into the wastepaper basket of my heart.
I still can't find the words to tell You
and I am afraid to drink the courage
from the bottle at the bar for fear that I
would say too little within too much.
& so, I continue to write words upon
innocent naked pieces of paper
all incoherent to Your heart and Feel

Finished
Finished
I knew you were coming
I can hide no more,
I hear your heavy footsteps
Come to my fragile door,
I once had a taste
Of law and order
But that quickly left
When I tried murder,
Now it’s time
To meet my maker
Come on in
You cold sedator,
Do you want me to repent?
There’s nothing left, it’s all been spent
I have the summons
I have the bill,
The hands of time
Will be most still,
Now my debts
Have all been paid,
No coin is gathered
From the grave,
Dying’s as natural as...

Wouldn't allow it
Then did

Pink, Your Pink
I'll do almost anything for that
It's a form of love
I know
I'm not supposed to talk about that
Fuck it

Humanity
I've given up on most of humanity
If I didn't, I'd be driven to insanity
Yes, I know some people are kind
But you are not going to change my mind
I've been hurt and abused so many times
By people who don't see their crimes
It has gotten to the point where there
Is not any more I can bare
So live your life and I'll live mine,
Yours in rain and mine in shine
If I didn't, I'd be driven to insanity
Yes, I know some people are kind
But you are not going to change my mind
I've been hurt and abused so many times
By people who don't see their crimes
It has gotten to the point where there
Is not any more I can bare
So live your life and I'll live mine,
Yours in rain and mine in shine
