POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I mangle the fence of finding self or simple letting those sleeping dogs rest...
Deeper still
..those salty gums drops forced
casually down a perched throat
embed the scars of lost love
on tongue with each cursed syllable ...
Cutting Fill,so deeper the wound
faster the healing so I'm told.
pirece with precise slices...
mark my tears and snot nose
with infected abrasions across
a bruised heart..
Until the reflection is nothing but
outcries of tainted Never agains.
and healing , well healing is nothing
so long as my bones can withstand the
cuts left by bruised egos and misplaced
I love you ...

...nothing
I peeled away each layer until I was nothing but
skin, and bones. Just the flesh that I needed
to cover life patches as I laid myself bare before me.
counted the years that i suffocated
under the weight of all those different faces.
until I was nothing but a corpse learning new tricks
as each new year came around
like how to spin and turn on our toes
so we could continue to pretend to grow
never seeing we were nothing but preorder proses
unimportant in our many roles just a momentary
fit..

Lipstick and Mascara stains
.. Cover imperfection on an already perfect reflection
red lip liner covered the purple and blue blush
fist full of tears poured beneath the skin.
mixed the forever sorry's and never agains
like foundation his love layer cheeks with empty
promises and caked on lies.
rough in its caress when held to withstand
the cathrines of his beautiful storm each
weather through to the broken bones
Counting blessing that should have been lessons
never learned as his love became choking
lace draped around chipped and bruise...

Roots of a dying tree
Fragile these stagnat leaves clings to a lifeless branch, reaching for new
life like new hope. Unattainable when barren wombs contaminated chambers
rejects growth and sterile seeds spill ignorance into noxious eggs Only to reproduce
empty embryos.
Uneducated in its true history, these leaves fall prematurely within
the realm of the lost and forgotten. Hopelessly grasping brittle llimbs
as descending descendants wither under the pressure of spawning
the next generation of great ones.
Boasting in the stench of their unimportant arrogance these ...

Eccentric Stains
Beneath the skin are unseen scars that seep through
bones accenting blemishes worn under the surface or
between the stems of skin. Discolored these fragments
brand life across skin like a failed suicide.Leaving
fingers tracing swollen lines entwining wrist, or a
thumb stroking the pucker skin from a noose, hidden
beneath a red scarf adorn with humming birds. Strumming
their moments of weakness in vivid details as pain stain
stories on body canvas.
These stains wrote their beginnings in the cracks of sun ...

Patchwork
She was his Rubik's cube of once before, pieced together
until she resemble a human quilt of patchwork stuffed
with incomplete portions of his manifest. Building
his citadel within her seam as each jagged stitch molded her
until she became fragments of his ego rusting between her thighs.
He gave birth to her insecurities whenever he spilled his bile
within her barren womb.
She was the house that welcomes the graffiti he wrote on mildew walls
drawing her in sections of defiled essence. His rotten spoils
spilled from his tongue with each new...

Combustion
A dry rotten shell of a man exposed to love, crumbles beneath the
weight of its abandonment. Screaming from his chest the essence of
salvation as fragment of the man he once was fills the air.
Worn and tatter he bleeds her scent from his pores, cursing the
arrow that teasingly pierced his fragile heart,and left his spirit
wandering aimlessly within a darken room where love once linger .
Now only a remainder of what once was cakes the floor and
Love dead skin clogged sinuses as his unexpandable lungs inhaled regret
toxic...
