POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I use many rhyming schemes. I like using caesuras and im pretty much obsessed with alliteration. I write whenever I feel inspired and I write to clear my mind.

Devil's Grin
Moody musical melodies ringing in the mighty misty moonlight
Light shades nestled on the bridge of his nose
Tugging the trench coat tighter til
Leaning against a broken glass windowsill
Gray boots, green tie and waiting
Tonight's the night he will die
Elated at this winning prize
The devil was grinning
Rope in hand with seconds to spare
Closing the distance with long strides
Pushed behind the counter nook
Bounded arms and legs
Hanging by the hinging hook
Stripped now bare
Anticipating a new death in a decrepit mind ...

WAR's Ledge
Crumbling under this pressure
Which has no measure
Losing everything I deeply treasure
Within WAR's multiple sinful fleeting pleasures
Trying to keep my demons at bay
Praying to my God each day
Feeling hopeless and dismayed
Willing it to go away
The answer is known
Every second of each day I am shown
Which is to end it all and let go
Yet I consciously don't
Breaking my pledge
Steeping forward leg by leg
Teetering on this edge
To continue dancing dangerously, with Death, upon WAR's ledge
Which has no measure
Losing everything I deeply treasure
Within WAR's multiple sinful fleeting pleasures
Trying to keep my demons at bay
Praying to my God each day
Feeling hopeless and dismayed
Willing it to go away
The answer is known
Every second of each day I am shown
Which is to end it all and let go
Yet I consciously don't
Breaking my pledge
Steeping forward leg by leg
Teetering on this edge
To continue dancing dangerously, with Death, upon WAR's ledge

Call You Mine
Late nights, after midnight, curled up in my covers
Discovering the deep mysteries of my esoteric lover
You mean more to me than a quick fuck, you know?
No closer am I to you, than pass your transcendent touch, though!
I intently rip your clothes off, leaving you bare
Most times, left in awe and all I can do is stare
I would rather have access inside your magnetic mind
Then, maybe, I could finally call you Mine.

WAR Within
My feelings for you are more than flesh deep
An excursion so blissful indeed I weep
Consumed by the liquid-fire your body exudes I loose sleep
An expressionless connection like a precipice, steep
With every fleeting kiss & embrace
I constantly crave our next ecstatic escape
We shadow dance, casting shapes
I hide behind my hair, buried in your nape
Taking me to abandon, I waited
Gasping, grasping and heated
Erotic, exotic and intoxicated
We erupt, enraptured and enkindled
Reveal my secret...
An excursion so blissful indeed I weep
Consumed by the liquid-fire your body exudes I loose sleep

Epic called 'ENTRAPMENT'
(Disclaimer: This is a very very long poem; my longest yet)
I walk a very thin line
I play with the devil's flames
I weave a web so enticing
I trap and treat my prey like game
My Innocence, I must proclaim
Yet I am always to blame
I do not notice my fame
I am untamed, so i maim, without meaning to I become acclaimed.
Fire with Fire.. that game!
Oh how I hate when everything is ALWAYS the same.
It was never my aim --to hurt and bruise
Yet how can my splitting heart choose?
Between two halves that make...

To Think
When you think about your life,
Where do your thoughts go?
To how you were born?
To how you have grown?
When you think about your passion,
Where does your desire go?
To the butterflies flying in your stomach?
To the silent rush of unsure courage?
When you think about your hope,
Where does your trust go?
To oneself.. making the "right" decision?
To others.. "guiding" you with "best" intentions?
When you think about your dreams,
Where does your faith go?
To the God you pray to each night?
To...

EROTIC POEM

To you, For you
Missing your tantalizing touch
Wanting your deep soul and so much more
Needing your enigmatic mind and core
To you,
For you,
I would do,
Anything.. though on a (hesitant) cue
To you,
For you,
A wicked truth,
I am me.. though now much more of you
It starts...
First Girl (subservient): "To you?"
First Guy (excited) : "For me!!!?"
...short pause..
First Guy (encouragingly): "But also, for you"
First Girl (askance): "From me?"
...long pause..
First Girl (unsure): "To you?"
Two...

Time
Time..
Ticks and tocks tumultuously twisting thick thorns tied to transcendent toleration
Time...
Touches the tainted tones of transpiring topical Torment, toppling toxic tyranny and torture
Time...
Travels tragically through traumatic traffic transmitting and translating truth.
(Letting go is an action that takes time)
Ticks and tocks tumultuously twisting thick thorns tied to transcendent toleration
Time...
Touches the tainted tones of transpiring topical Torment, toppling toxic tyranny and torture

Travels tragically through traumatic traffic transmitting and translating truth.

Numb me, dead & blue
Sleepless raccoon eyes, blank stares
A ghostly figure stands bare & bone
Wanting the pills
Any movement is excruciating effort, crushed & crippled
Any conscious thought feels like an aneurism
Needing the pills
Lay freezing on the cold cracked concrete curb, cool & crisp
Dizzy spells subsiding slightly, silly & sweet
Missing the pills
Orange pills for inflammation, a numbing like
Green pills for circulation though still it leaves me white
Pills for peaking pain not placid
All pills,...

End
Laying awake, insomnia rules
The temperature rises, darkness looms
Eerie and pitch-black, the pain resumes
Choking, gasping on toxic fumes
Scary scars, gruesome gloom
Blood it bleeds from blatant wounds
Waiting, knowing the time is soon
I see the Sun no more than the Moon
Death, the impending doom
End is now, Hell consumes
Where the Damn they go, there is the Tomb
God prevails and the devil he does lose.
The temperature rises, darkness looms
Eerie and pitch-black, the pain resumes
Choking, gasping on toxic fumes
Scary scars, gruesome gloom
Blood it bleeds from blatant wounds
Waiting, knowing the time is soon
I see the Sun no more than the Moon
Death, the impending doom
End is now, Hell consumes
Where the Damn they go, there is the Tomb
God prevails and the devil he does lose.

Abandonment
Sadly i had to let go
Of all the things that made us whole.
You knew, but never saw me
Held on with dear life and suffocated me.
I tried my best to bear the pain
So you'd be able to grow and gain.
The sufferings and cries, my mind battled in defiance
I ignored, for your happiness and alliance.
I dived into Abandonment, for i could no longer bear the hurt
Yet i still hurt, for i in turn hurt you.
Two wrongs make no right-true
But tell me what else was i to do.
I could no longer handle the guilt and arguments
Nor the lies and torment.
