Deliverance
I left God behind; or he left me behind
Either way, I don't quibble over the details
There was once a time
When my universe was inhabited
By all manner of specters and spooks
Lingering residue of a Catholic youth
I read the meandering gospels
In all their asymmetrical splendor
Listened as Jesus spoke
In riddles and beatitudes
In direct opposition to the will to life
Watched as he died for the sins of the world
The height of altruistic presumption
I cowered in the shadows
Of the confessional ...

The Most Beautiful Woman In The Room
She's the most beautiful woman
In the room
I lick the air as she passes
Rife with perfume and subtle perversion
Languidly, in soft sultry motions
She moves like a cheetah
With poise and deliberation
Like nickelodeon 1920
She goes about in flickering frames
Never quite as she was the moment before---
now seductive
now demure
now flirtatious
now unsure
She moves effortlessly through
myriad poses of amorous delight ...

Nocturne #2
Let me taste Hell
Upon your lips
Embrace me with alabaster
Arms that keep me close
Touch me with hands
That make me shiver with amatory cold
Choose your mask
And wear it well--Harlot
Courtesan
Vampiric whore
Come to me with
Your legions of shadows
Each a vice of the flesh
That you offer
Let me feel the chill of death
When I gaze into your eyes
They harbor a sirens song
That I cannot resist
Seduce me with a...

Nocturne #1
She left her flesh
At the foot of the bed
Her carnal virtues laid bare
Her raven hair
Her mourning veil
Licking at her naked, pale shoulders
Her sumptuous, full-moon breasts
Watching over her smooth, flat abdomen
Her mound of Venus
Concealing long-wounded virginity
Her legs, pillars of marble
Moving in slow, sensuous strut
Dark mistress, keeper of my silent desires
And exquisite nocturnal corruptions
She bends to my longing
Piercing my lip with her vampire tooth

Ballad of Henry Chinanski
Bacchic poet laureate
Drunken bard and ladies man
Oh, how this troubled troubadour
Of the dregs and the whores
Spoke to my pubescent agonies
And manhood defiiements of the mind
Rhapsodies and rhymes
Portraits of a man drowining
In his own madness
My neurosis answered
From your kingdom of dimly lit taverns
And desolation morgues
Trash bin philosopher
Scavenging through existential ironies
And empirical monuments to the ill-fated human condition
Sing to me life's hells and hallelujahs

Unholy Girl
Unholy girl
Seduce me with your wicked charms
Unholy girl
Reduce me within your arms
Unholy girl
Raise me up upon your wilted wing
Unholy girl
You can do anything
Unholy girl
Keeper of my dark desires
Unholy girl
Burn me with your unholy fire
Unholy girl
Godless and free

Come unto me

Be my loyal concubine

Let your evil star shine

Pale death-face
Unholy girl
Fetid womb of a new race ...
Seduce me with your wicked charms

Salome
The delicate chime is struck
She appears like newly born starlight
Lost in the slow infinities of her moving
She oscillates on the periphery
Mocking the cool breeze nipping at her winged heel
Her eyes --two luminous spheres
Her hair--seven shimmering veils
Her lips--the soft blush of harvest strawberry
Her skin--lustrous and luminescent
Drowning in her alluring symmetry
Blinded by her rapturous pulchritude
Venus awakens bringing univited daydreams
And unsolicited passions
Forbidden and beyond all reach ...

Ophelia
Ophelia awakes in the
Dew-drenched morning light
She shakes the nightmares from her hair
Then brushes it one hundred times
Ties it with frayed, white lace
Torn from the bridal gown she will never wear
Naked, leafless and blushed
She walks across the room
Upon autumns lurid fingers
Haunting thoughts of her mad prince
Intruding upon the idyll
Ophelia steps out upon rosy heels
Lady of perpetual youth
Condemned to everlasting chastity
Love unguarded, unrequited
And vouchsafed to no one ...
Dew-drenched morning light
She shakes the nightmares from her hair
Then brushes it one hundred times

I AM
Of the horns I am
Of the horns I remain
Slouching across fields
Of rape and ruin
Crouched beneath
The reeling sunwheel
Upon a mephitic breeze
My prayers go out
Like a harvest of rats.
Of the rusty rails I am
Of the rails I remain
Hobo shaman
Black-clad vagabond King
Black marketeer
Of a paradise misbegotten
Of the bottomless pit I am
And of the pit I remain
My lilting choirs of Armageddon
Sung on lyres strung with flesh and wire
Summoning my bastard sons and brute creations ...
Of the horns I remain
Slouching across fields
Of rape and ruin
Crouched beneath
The reeling sunwheel
Upon a mephitic breeze
My prayers go out
Like a harvest of rats.
Of the rusty rails I am
Of the rails I remain
Hobo shaman
Black-clad vagabond King
Black marketeer
Of a paradise misbegotten
Of the bottomless pit I am
And of the pit I remain
My lilting choirs of Armageddon
Sung on lyres strung with flesh and wire
Summoning my bastard sons and brute creations ...

Forgive The Night
Forgive the night
And it's scattered ashes
It's morbid children
Casting lots for the
Bruised garments of a
Reluctant martyr
Satyrs and shaman
Sages and madmen
Derelict casinos
And broken boulevards.
Forgive the night
Fearless and feral
The desolate moon betrothed
To truant stars
That forgot to shine
And unanswered prayers
That forgot to die
Brooding orchids nodding
Towards an unresponsive sky.
Forgive the night
It's tapestry of shadows
It's soliloquy of loss and longing ...
And it's scattered ashes
It's morbid children
Casting lots for the
Bruised garments of a
Reluctant martyr
Satyrs and shaman
Sages and madmen
Derelict casinos
And broken boulevards.
Forgive the night
Fearless and feral
The desolate moon betrothed
To truant stars
That forgot to shine
And unanswered prayers
That forgot to die
Brooding orchids nodding
Towards an unresponsive sky.
Forgive the night
It's tapestry of shadows
It's soliloquy of loss and longing ...

True Love
True Love" comes uninvited--
It takes you hostage and
Immediately issues demands.
"True Love" burns--
It burns with a fire by which
All other fires are defined.
"True Love" is physiological--
The stomach tightens
Like a sailors knot;
The heart palpitates
In a strange, savage rhythm ;
There is a desperate absence of breath.
"True Love"is pathological--
You retreat into a precisely
Constructed inner world,
Gazing into the distance
Towards an alluring, seductive future
Where...
It takes you hostage and
Immediately issues demands.

Fallen
In the beginning was the war
and the war was with God.
Trenches in the clouds
Fields of rape and ruin
Bastard children of Elohim
Pursuing swift apotheosis
Hymns of truant saints
Sung on lyres
Strung with flesh and wire
Hail the terrors endless
Hail the horrors countless
Mutiny on the wing
Rebellion in the air
Sons of pure fire
Reconstlellate the firmament
Play it again Sam-
That chorus of Armageddon
Songs of paradise misbegotten
Of profane allegiance
Myopic prophecy
Fare...
and the war was with God.
Trenches in the clouds
Fields of rape and ruin
Bastard children of Elohim
Pursuing swift apotheosis
Hymns of truant saints
Sung on lyres
Strung with flesh and wire
Hail the terrors endless
Hail the horrors countless

Rebellion in the air
