POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
in disarray
Bottom of the Sky
Arcane code
Blighted to me
Blind to vision
Have to make
My own
I sigh in the wind, become one
Rainwater trickles down my lips
I call to the nitrogen
It answers me in fertile glory
Moon bathed in earth
The scent rises
As I ride the storm clouds
Of my minds eye
I recite on currents
Wingbeats carry my war cry
Endless battling
The breaks and wounds
Forge me in thunder
So that my will echos forth
Across the sky and overland
So loud,...

Grounded
Set intentions
On the eve of rain
Heaven sent
Quenched again
I dance to collect
Waters that cleanse
Encased in prism
The serum within
The found amethyst
The fount of clouds
The cards, the stars
The life abounds
In the verdancy
My spirit is found
Bonds in the paws
The blooms profound
The most practical of magics
Of hands in the earth,
The only repose known
Since the time of my birth
On the eve of rain
Heaven sent
Quenched again
I dance to collect
Waters that cleanse
Encased in prism
The serum within
The found amethyst
The fount of clouds
The cards, the stars
The life abounds
In the verdancy
My spirit is found
Bonds in the paws
The blooms profound
The most practical of magics
Of hands in the earth,
The only repose known
Since the time of my birth

Inner Landscape
I weep in the catacombs
Of my indignation
Longing
For belonging
Bony caves surround the
Wounded lost core
This rage protects me
Evermore
Reaching out to remember
The embers of my shrill heart
Night spoken dreams
Turn to terror
For I fear
I mean
I am
Nothing to you
My reactive shell
Shudders and quakes
The crimson tides and I
Cry together
Of my indignation
Longing
For belonging
Bony caves surround the
Wounded lost core
This rage protects me
Evermore
Reaching out to remember
The embers of my shrill heart
Night spoken dreams
Turn to terror
For I fear
I mean
I am
Nothing to you
My reactive shell
Shudders and quakes
The crimson tides and I
Cry together

Tendril Demon
The dragon admires the chimera
They fuck as synchronous monsters
In the blue reign of the twilight sky
The dragon fills its maw
The tender pith in jaw
With ivory chimeran neck
The carotid collapses in shred
Streaks of red erupt along the horizon
Like the bloodletting I attempt to get you out of my system.
Betrayal poetic in quadrangles
Your lips are decayed to me
Your kiss is poisonous
Yet, I
Would write a thousand prayers and cast a thousand spells
Until I feel golden in your...

Disproven
I am a stupid child, who painted celestial icons on the door
For I knew how much you loved the stars
The hubris, the hubris
Just another error in my ways
A collection of errors in human form, I am.
Icons that I achingly placed
Enshrined in holy glory
Ensconced in your lies
That I despise
You polluted my blood with the blackness of a demon eve.
The night burns with the supreme She
Witness the cruel beauty of it
Bear witness to the soft horror
Of your...

Broken Tokens
Wrath on the most high
Themes revive
In your catechism, I schism
From your assertions
Drowned in gasoline today
Betrayer, how you make me ache
Matrix of loneliness
Secret seething
There is no energy left
To save me, orphan made
Heard my musings
Always, now I,
Amuseless wonder
All empty thunder
Exodus to anywhere
Forever broken in despair
Can't escape the grief
Of all that has been seen
...

Party of One
Poster child
Negative Nancy
Soaked in Raspberry
Ginger Ale and Hi-C
With a few shots
For good measure
Though I'll regret it
Tomorrow
Marinating in that THC
As I always be
Lonely as a soul can be
Searching, seeking
High and low
For a high
So much better
Than this
Don't have the access
For that shit I really want
Deep intimate connection
Visceral and filled
With emotion
Only afforded a taste
Just a sip
Of that...

Loom Above Them Now
Battle cry
Black stallion
Ride the night
Lightning strike
Vaporize
Dark wish
Violence spiral
Chiral blood
Congealing to
Primal sludge
Now,
Pale rider
Shock wave
Raze them
With your
Withered Caress
Black stallion

Vaporize
Dark wish
Violence spiral
Chiral blood
Congealing to
Primal sludge

Pale rider
Shock wave
Raze them

Misimpression
My dream dies each time
I slip my eyes
Of my rose tinted glasses
Shows the broken inside
I stifle my cries
Choking on them
Sometimes
Beyond sad, forlorn
In eternal wave,
To postulate is
Forbidden, torn
I keep my illusion
Safe, close to chest
And I nurture it
Never the less
My tears crest
At times
Staining my cheeks
Each one memorial to you
I walk beside you in time
A spectre of wishes
Haunting the haunted
I'm held together with stitches
I smile, I...

Husk
I am the ache of the four seasons
As they die in eternal procession
Lay to rest any hope and dreams
I've ever had in my possession
Chained up melodies and twisted nursery rhymes
Keep beside me timeless, for I'm without grace
Having faith in me is misplaced
I died in frozen, broken chakras
When you left me
In the vacuum of space
How could you?
The just world is a fallacy
It laughs at me
In fractal cackles
In the spin
I'm bound by shackles
What's the practical use
Of being...

Dying Trying
I purge
My sins
My obscurity
My heart
I lay them out
Bound in brows
For you in fits
And starts
I recall
I re-live
I imagine
The past
I admit
Examined
My truth
Everlasting
See me,
I'm strange,
Know me flawed
Writing in blood
Hear me
Unchanneled
My glory
Gone
I already lost
Royalty falls
On the edges
Of missives
Broken hearts
Peculiar
Won't stay silent
Broken souls
Need their justice done ...

Exclusion qualifier
Lucid dream
Eyes decanted
In dark fantasy
Pour out, pour out
Perhaps the most
Poisoned kiss of all
Forestall, burn it down
Wrapped up in your
Straight jacket glory
Plagued by my mistakes
Too vulnerable to live
Drag me down
Betwixt shame
In exclusion
With this estimation of me
Step on my bleeding heart
Iron congealing
Red turns black
Pour out, pour out
Lucid dream
Eyes decanted
In dark fantasy
Pour out, pour out
Perhaps the most
Poisoned kiss of all
Forestall, burn it down
Wrapped up in your
Straight jacket glory
Plagued by my mistakes
Too vulnerable to live
Drag me down
Betwixt shame
In exclusion
With this estimation of me
Step on my bleeding heart
Iron congealing
Red turns black
Pour out, pour out
