Poet Introduction
I am not a true student of the art forms I persue, I just bleed my emotions freely which constitutes as self-therapy. Through this process I achieve inner peace
The Truth About Humanity
Greed is the epidemic swallowing the world whole from within
Tender womb, soft pink flesh in the pull of mother's breath
Missing is the fetus floating inside the nest
Replaced instead by a pack of gnarly, slashing rats
Bleeding of the earth in an uncompromising wrath
Digging in the thin of skin
Cancer eating away in the form of a billion sentient beings
With freedom and a universe that supposedly bends to the will
Allowing the user to create reality of choosing
Yet war...

Do Not Mirror Me
A stale taste
For the crab
Withdrawing into shell with a tight aching twist
This sanctuary besieged by mold
The sloth of your heart
Has you bound by neglect as a snake constricting
You carry this great weight
The gravity hastens your pace to deteriorate
A filthy canvas beyond cleaning the slate
A fly spewing to sugar taste
Rattling the home you fashioned into a cage
Root down
Await for the world to shower you with the gifts you feel are owed
May the...

Patchwork
No one left with a heart for caring
This family the quilt with the fabric tearing
Ever further away from each other
The cold reality of our distance is the pain hollowing into the chest
We drift apart
As if we were directed by the sign of chaos
Bold warnings of keeping away from the face of our bridge
Judging and banishing each other as we live strangle by the spiritual cord of ego
Divided we wilt in the shadows beyond forgiveness
In a time when purity needs constant strength to keep from...

Morbid Legacy
How I wonder
When this gentle planet
Will peel away this invasive synthetic skin
We call the human race
The only living organism so grotesque it rejects the perfect rhythms of nature's binding heart beat
Living out of phase with spiritual harmony
Running out of time to melt into the salvation of this music
Trading away raw wilderness for treated concrete
We sprout upon the earth like alien mold spores
As tainted apparitions hellbent on corrupting
Consuming all in a greedy swinish fever...

Shell
The scorpion embraces
A heart that she cast into stone
Here we live together apart until the last breath
Weaved in painful ink
On the skin
Covering the spiral of my beating center
A heart that she cast into stone
Here we live together apart until the last breath
Weaved in painful ink

Queen of Clubs
Oh how well you craft and shape
Indiscernible ways to rape my peaceful place
Reach in to hug you to be met by clawing rake
Cruelty of your tongue
Reveals your warm exterior to be a fabricated way
All that is left
To push you away
Leave you to the fat of your poisonous mate
Crawling to sunshine from your darkened sway
My soul escaping the orb of the witch
A symbiotic succubus that bound me with stitches
You cannot pull me back under your drift
I can never unsee your...

Know
You will never know my lips again
or their deeply tender brush
You will never again feel the azure embrace of my searching eyes with trust
You will never feel that loving stare wrapped in strong warm arms that truly care
You will never hear my poetic praise or be worshiped by my insatiable lust
When the weight of the world collapses on your crying face
You will never feel the touch of my probing hand
to melt the knots from your...

Prowling The Void
We drop like shadows into the cocktail party of this night
Saturating the vibe with charm and thirsty eyes
Your women hanging warmly in our presence
They did not know they were inviting young lusty demons
This dry place not accustomed to fiery energy
Vodka flows like the splashing of a fountain
The heartbeat of true intention reverberating to bleed into this space
Sex is the finger on the pulse as you become wet from what is conveyed secretly by the bass in the voice
I want to fuck you right here and now not caring that it would be in front...

True
Enraptured as I remain by the infinite crescendo of her cascading beauty
How can I forgive the Ocean from keeping you from me?
The pearl of my life
Forever out of reach
Wave after wave
Curling assault always trying to press me to the dry of land
Away from the one that could love me forever
Away from the little lass I could swoop up in my arms
Carrying us both into the dream of our own creation
Into a canvas of star scattered skies

How To Discern a Vampire
Lashings
Of the tongue
Yet
Delivering the flesh rending cruel bites of a leather whip
Shooting
Off at the mouth
Yet
Internally bleeding brutal like hot bullets
Drowning
Out your words
Yet
My hands are around your throat forcing you to remain submerged
So clean of an assassin
Bleeding your kill with invisible weapons
Passive...

The Deviation
Foolish child
You judge me
Nearly contorted your head off while brandishing my flaws with a possessed harsh wrath
I fold into myself with curling grief as an ocean wave plunging out of existence
It kills you
That I was unable to squeeze myself into the cookie cutter molding of your expectations
I did not fit the suit you have been fabricating
My Angel,
I am the deviation
The momentary left handed cut that saved you from a life of never knowing true desire
I leaped into...

First Glance
It only took one frozen second containing the vision of your likeness
Setting my heart in flutter
A bird trying to fly in this rib cage
My mind spins
In this dizzy stasis
Drawing up impossible scenerios
Creating a fated path to where we could meet
As if I did not know already that you are forbidden
Or that you have anything to gain from a sexual vampire
At the mercy of your sleek beauty
A kind of love would enrapture my being allowing me to swim through time
