don't mention Trump in the bedroom
You want me to believe
you're made of THC
and mind numbing chemicals
but you're not a drug
you idiot
The only thing
that is vaguely addictive
about you
is your cock
because you fuck
like you were born
to worship cunts
But it's not enough
that you make me scream
it's not enough
that you leave me so breathless
I can't stand upright unaided
it's not enough
that I see the whole universe
in the aftermath of your body
breaking mine
It's so fucking boring ...

faith
Little faith says I can do anything
suspicious doubt worries
my heart faulters but I stand my ground
Tiny need won't get the best of me
carnal understanding, the body remembers
what it feels like to be impenetrable
my frailty shows, and I fear
still legs shaking, I keep walking
ferocious desire it's on my mind
Some say it's easy
My brain synapses say it's not
It knows one thing
The road to devastation is easier
walking into the sunlit reality
where ever flaw shows daunting
Shrinking violet I am ...

sleepy
corrupted rhythm I can't get out of this thought process
insidious need calls, and I want to get high
scary visions haunt in dreams I do
succumbing to my crave
sleepily crawling through each day
It is with no small effort I obstain
sulking while everyone talks fast
appeasing their demons
while mine starve
Deadly last rites, should I fold
They'll bury me in shame
But what a way to go
The autopsy will read her heart explode
no one would weep after all it was my own damn fault
So I stay clean,...

pay to play
intrepidation spikes
and I look around to see what it is bothering me
An internal war is going on
my body beaten anxiety grows
with broken wings I try to rise
just to fall to the ground
still I pick up my body and walk
It's the best I can do
darkness opens its arms to me
suffice to say I turn away
until it is upon me
Then I'm thrown into the fray
on the surface, I am calm
but within, there is turmoil to deal with
sacred art turning the dark into a thing of beauty
Even terror can be pretty ...

loneliness and the devil craves
temptation flares I'm still weak
Old friends drop by
and is the polite custom to offer
my soul withdraws my body craves
a deep need, it will fix everything for a moment
I decline with a half-hearted no
they can see the need in my eyes
but my body can't handle another blow
so my psychological pain must be dealt with on my own
My friends are gone
My party days are over
Loneliness kicks in, and I cry
Old friends drop by
and is the polite custom to offer
my soul withdraws my body craves
a deep need, it will fix everything for a moment
I decline with a half-hearted no
they can see the need in my eyes
but my body can't handle another blow
so my psychological pain must be dealt with on my own
My friends are gone
My party days are over
Loneliness kicks in, and I cry

Roadside Manner
This highway air
is thick & bleeding.
A yellow sleep
in curt despair.
Windows down
for morning dew
on hard thistle blue.
A red flag noon
fuming mindful ooze
into white-hot stew.
A smile so sweetly
sang the horizon-
miles over my head
on a mobile bed…
"oh no, child,
THIS is the dream,
you are still in very real danger"

What One Cop Gets For Making A Rookie Mistake
At
first, Gwen
was about
to make a bust
against drug dealers
on her undercover
assignment. But that's before
someone stuck a needle into
her arm. The next day, Gwen woke up in
a motel room naked and so alone.

Vile vial
It's an elixer, infused with a curse.
Delivered from the void.
To engulf the universe.
It wants blood, not so much at first.
As ritial demanded.
Dutifully aspersed.
Worthy cost, incant another verse.
For ever eager evoke.
In banishment of worse.
Insober dose, slake overflowing thirst.
Excess is not enough.
Course toxic crave to burst.
Elsewhere, current drift cannot reverse.
Dissolve into ethereal.
Then feel the soul disperse.
Delivered from the void.
To engulf the universe.
It wants blood, not so much at first.
As ritial demanded.
Dutifully aspersed.
Worthy cost, incant another verse.
For ever eager evoke.
In banishment of worse.
Insober dose, slake overflowing thirst.
Excess is not enough.
Course toxic crave to burst.
Elsewhere, current drift cannot reverse.
Dissolve into ethereal.
Then feel the soul disperse.

MAN DOWN, MAN DOWN
Pigs came to the crack house last night
All the crack dealers and addicts scattered like roaches throwing their stash over the cement wall
The cops shined their little lights and tried to find the stash bags
But to no avail
The pigs rolled out and chased two dudes down the street
They ran one guy down who was crossing the street
When the cop got out of the car to see what he has done, another crack dealer shot the cop right in the face
"MAN DOWN, MAN DOWN"
That's what I heard from another cop on a CB Radio
Total carnage
Total mayhem ...

Little Girl With A Purpose
I see that little girl everyday
She always runs to wherever she's going
Xmas came and left her with a bike
Now she rides up & down the street
It seems she never gets tired
She always plays by herself
I saw her the other day standing with her bike next to all these other kids who were much older than she
She wasn't even paying attention to them
She was standing there because they were
The older ones were smoking and talking a bunch of loud mouthed shit
All at once she got on her bike and sped away like she had some important place to be ...

No Title.
Never been good at breathing
Always felt like you've been drowning
When your arms are the dam to keep the flood waters from breaking
You take meds
But the meds won't fill that hole in your soul
You search for solace in the wrong hands
Stuff all that mess back in your chest
You tell yourself it's for the best
But it's like pumping your body full of lead
Weighing it down
To drown in the flood waters
Always felt like you've been drowning
When your arms are the dam to keep the flood waters from breaking
You take meds
But the meds won't fill that hole in your soul
You search for solace in the wrong hands
Stuff all that mess back in your chest
You tell yourself it's for the best
But it's like pumping your body full of lead
Weighing it down
To drown in the flood waters
