POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write when the itch arrives, just that simple. I hope you like my words
I Want to Forget
Behind my mind, ever present
You still have not left and I can never escape
I try to ward you off with the strongest wish
but still your spirit and specter haunt me
Am I stuck in the past?
Unable to let go or should I have never let go?
You were once a piece of me but now
A wound, hollow and void
Still some cries of longing emanate like oozing pus
A wound dug deep and in healing but always to leave a mark
phantom pains is all they are now of a limb that once had been
for a specter you have become and a memory to remain ...
You still have not left and I can never escape
I try to ward you off with the strongest wish
but still your spirit and specter haunt me
Am I stuck in the past?
Unable to let go or should I have never let go?
You were once a piece of me but now
A wound, hollow and void
Still some cries of longing emanate like oozing pus
A wound dug deep and in healing but always to leave a mark
phantom pains is all they are now of a limb that once had been
for a specter you have become and a memory to remain ...

Do you wish to experience or live
I implore the weak
rise
Hide not from the demons but unleash them
light and dark
hot and cold
high and low
different ends of the same scale
good and evil
does the infinite care
nothing is destroyed only transformed
creation destruction | life death
two sides of the same coin
hide not from the demons, become their devil
pray not for the angels but become their god
human, beast, spirit no difference but form
dust carbon flesh I am all but none
I fear nothing but my...

the end
I ponder
Do we all feel the same
Is my red the same as your red
Does this taste the same to you as me
Does this feel as good to you as to me
Do we think the same
Do you act like me
Are you familiar
I ponder
How can I mark the world
How can I be remembered
How will I be remembered...
Do we all feel the same
Is my red the same as your red
Does this taste the same to you as me
Does this feel as good to you as to me
Do we think the same
Do you act like me
Are you familiar
I ponder
How can I mark the world
How can I be remembered
How will I be remembered...

Fate
I am so far beneath you
A stone submerged at the bottom of the Avilés
I stare up at the heavens and look for Astarte
Adonis to Aphrodite
I am a mere mortal and you a celestial daughter of the heavens
Diffident
I am so far beneath you
Your presence rushes me like water
Taking me in a rush and mixing me in
A littoral wall crashes into me then melts, I mix in
As I tumble in the swirling wave I become lost in the wave
I break past the surface and breathe, imbued, composed, and purified
Bliss
Your presence...

As a Man
As a stone I lay
As a tree I shade
As a dog I wag and lick
But as a man
As a man
I love
As a tree I shade
As a dog I wag and lick
But as a man
As a man
I love

Let Me Be Free
There is a beast in me with insatiable lust
Asleep he lay, till our lips did touch
Awake and ablaze, chained and caged I have him tamed
But release is his greatest wish, to roam and ravage and be beast
You the earth, let me unleash him upon you, that darker side that lives in me
Let him roam your surface, give no barrier, or restraint
Let me unleash him upon your bare and naked flesh
Let him taste and smell all that is you, for it is you he craves
The freedom long waited, but my control is all too well, so give me no reason for restraint ...
