Poet Introduction
Sets fire to the rain 🐛
Sharp View
since the day he
arrived i am in awe
of his sharp view
& super clever
observations
speaking up
radically poetic
about this fucked
up society and this
new generation
its ignorance
and hatred while
switching it up with
a musical break
his knowledge of
artists & bands in his
backstage stories
with lots of humor is
jaw dropping great yet
don't forget how he bares
his soul in reflective ink
so here's an ovation to
our one...

The Master
of epic word play
and assonance
going from dark
personal pieces to
elaborate erotica
such eclectic ink
with karma, zodiac
sanskrit and eye
am truly in awe
of how he paints
sages and visions
in mystical scriptures
visionary prophecies
for us poets to see
eye adore him for
facing his demons
and his shadow side
fighting the serpents
the twilight inside
observational love
erotica or mysterious
ancient and cosmic poetry ...

She Speaks
in warm metaphors
from the heart for it's
what she knows
a way to survive
she's a true fighter
exposing her soul
the agony of her past
shamelessly despite her
fears and insecurities
yet do not ever let
her softness fool you
she is fiercely protective
of the ones she loves
razor sharp in her
smart observance
sensually seductive
in her erotic ink
as she breathes
new life into her fire
worn-out & weary
taking us with her
our precious...

Guitar Cries
a lonesome night
their guitar cries
cut through my
heart tear me
apart take me
where i need to
be in the core
in that horrible
place where the
demons reside
uncomfortably
they fill the air
taint my space
voices & noises
coming in waves
make me numb
slay me inside
God i am tired
can't even write
i close my eyes
hide in their cries
surrender my body
into the abyss of night
their guitar cries
cut through my
heart tear me
apart take me
where i need to
be in the core
in that horrible
place where the
demons reside
uncomfortably
they fill the air
taint my space
voices & noises
coming in waves
make me numb
slay me inside
God i am tired
can't even write
i close my eyes
hide in their cries
surrender my body
into the abyss of night

Crescendos
allow me to wipe
off the dust love
slide my fingers
over your keys
play you softly
pour light into
your darkness
ease the black
revive the white
bring back to life
the sound of your
soul & heal your
years old scars
create a private
silent symphony
divine harmony
in delicate notes
& elegant tones
from the depths
of despair to the
peaks of pleasure
in a slow crescendo
until you moan in music
off the dust love
slide my fingers
over your keys
play you softly
pour light into
your darkness
ease the black
revive the white
bring back to life
the sound of your
soul & heal your
years old scars
create a private
silent symphony
divine harmony
in delicate notes
& elegant tones
from the depths
of despair to the
peaks of pleasure
in a slow crescendo
until you moan in music

About Love
love is the miracle
that happens when
you least expect it
a gift from above
sublimely unique
love doesn't seek
love is the person
who is there in the
most alone times
to hold you tight
not being a task
love doesn't ask
love should come
easy & organically
grow like a flower
as time goes by
blooming quietly
love doesn't fight
love is giving from
a heart that is pure
caring & empathic
being present for ...

D's Poetry
about the writing
process in here
& how it goes
it usually starts
with music a pic
and concept or
favorite quote
words on paper
left to simmer for
a couple of days
at times weeks
adding pieces &
deleting bits next
is over and over
finetuning lines
it's a nightmare
a perfectionist to
the core the bar
is set high and
the control freak
doesn't make any
concessions to the
content, format & flow

Thirty Five
Thirty five+ years
of fighting an ED
Called bulimia
is far from easy
'cause healing
is not linear it's
setbacks falling
down & crawling
back up starting
over at point 0
the holistic work
i am doing with S
causes changes
slowly over time
going to the gym
and working out is
a mood boost yet
still didn't suffice
added microdoses
Truffles to the mix
it certainly asks for
some heavy artillery
this fucking ED of mine

Control Me
the fight is tiring
and drives me
to despair the
demon inside

build it from my

strip me bare &
make me wear

Maso Bliss
Going to admit it
i am a pain slut
maso at heart
i need fear &
adrenaline to
feel fully alive
free in release
the lying there
in anticipation
high as a kite
waiting for the
hit of your whip
The sensations
and pain feeling
numb & awake
rescue in ache
it took me some
time to accept &
embrace i really
am a maso who
craves the agony
the brutal violence
the silence it creates
i am a pain slut

i need fear &
adrenaline to
feel fully alive

in anticipation

hit of your whip

and pain feeling
numb & awake
rescue in ache
it took me some
time to accept &
embrace i really

craves the agony
the brutal violence
the silence it creates

Release Me
free me heal me
and release me
make me obey
force me tame
me redeem me
make me yours
take me away to
a far away place
just you and me
in our tiny bubble
together we tear
down the doors
open our space
create a galactic
worship universe
our sacred place
where we explore
our hidden desires
immoral fantasies
getting rid of limits
shame & inhibitions
please, take me away
and surrender me babe
and release me
make me obey
force me tame
me redeem me
make me yours
take me away to
a far away place
just you and me
in our tiny bubble
together we tear
down the doors
open our space
create a galactic
worship universe
our sacred place
where we explore
our hidden desires
immoral fantasies
getting rid of limits
shame & inhibitions
please, take me away
and surrender me babe

Soul Lovers
it feels like we are
sexual soulmates
L said out of the
blue during sex
and that is true
though on other
aspects we pair
quite perfect too
as if our planets
are stellar in line
two similar lives
Colliding as if it
was meant to be
we see what lies
beneath our eyes
always complete
each other's lines
we are dark matter
and starfire in this
divine outer space
delicate souls who
found each other in
this magical cosmos
&...
