POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I like to write about the darker side of the imagination. Dreams, nightmares and psychological horror. Some would say I suffer from night terror,s but I embrace them.

Idle hand
Here is a sample of horror
Lurking deep within my daunting mind
Where words can fail... pictures prevail
Lurking deep within my daunting mind
Where words can fail... pictures prevail

Where the parking meters become headstones
Painted nails set upon frail and dainty fingers hide inside her pocket
The steel concealed is the object of their amusement
Hiding away the five with six cruel intentions
How her skin glows beneath the giant moon
A lure for those weak enough to follow
Those who believe SHE is the wounded one
Mimicking the rabbits cries
A wolf comes into sight
Nocturnal
He smells blood but she is the night
Howls echo throughout the city street
Another noise adding to its blight
Through the rising steam of the sewer caps she...
The steel concealed is the object of their amusement

How her skin glows beneath the giant moon
A lure for those weak enough to follow
Those who believe SHE is the wounded one

Nocturnal
He smells blood but she is the night

Stranger danger
Welcome to a place where cruelty's a plague
Selfishness and greed infect the human race
The leopard waits and attacks from the back
But your neighbors...
Your neighbors do it to your face
Peace is just a dream in this hatred fueled nightmare
There's always something picking at your scabs to never let you heal
Throw rocks into a crowd and ask me if I care
I assure you that the hatred is real
Why stand for change
You know you stand alone
A target in the crowd
Or violent drone
Ignorance is bliss
A life without...
Selfishness and greed infect the human race

Waking the demons
Waiting out the weeks in seclusion while emptiness touches my soul
With the softness of velvet and the color of coal
Now alone and embracing my imagination, I erupt with primal growls
Establishing a hierarchy through domination and unrelenting howls
How could I let the monster lay so dormant
...my most favorited friend
Time to wake the beast horned in adornment
And ride its wings to the end
Like the old ones, it slept beyond the reach of death
But now I call and watch the creature take a giant breath
The sleepy eye begins to open...
With the softness of velvet and the color of coal

Pretty little drug machine
-written for the "pr3tty h8 mach1ne" comp.
The sun never rose today
Everything has gone away
Smoke is burning my eyes
What the fuck just happened here?
I rode you further down the spiral
And now I'm stuck in the teeth of life
...But in the most fragile way...
Your wretched little mind is breached
Why can't you see it my way?
You're a slave to the stars
That glitter and white gold
With snow blinded eyes
You're a frostbitten hoe
Empty inside
With hardly a soul
How quickly you slide
Out of...

The Devils Puppeteer
At night I stand behind you when nobody else will
With a firm hand on your shoulder
Sending whispers which fall upon your ear
I speak with the persuasiveness that one would expect
I am the hand which holds the razor aching for your neck
And still... nothing will ever hold you so dear
Looming like a black cloud rolling in the shape of an angel
I've buried my halo to keep you from the light of it
I am a storm hanging just above you, possessive and always near
For your soul is their debt but you are my toy so long as you are here
...

Never alone
There has always been something watching
From afar but sometimes near
I can feel it when I'm walking
Suddenly cumbersome and drunk on fear
In my mind I see the silhouette
Stretched out like a spiders web
An anxious transitory shape
Like black smoke with a roving head
That prickle feeling behind my neck
Is fright amounting with no ebb
Without the want to turn and face it
This stalking thing remains instead
It's like a shadow following
It's the footsteps I have left behind
It's a tail shapeless danger
Hunting with a...

The fate of the followers
In the cemetery is where I lay
Breathing cold when the mourning crowd has gone
I'm am the rust
I am the Midnights chill approaching fast
Kissing goodnight to the day
As frost creeps over the headstones
I am the ravens call
I am loyal
I am dead
Is anyone there at all?
With promises of light and paradise
I have followed in your path
My feet becoming one with the mud
Although our footprints do not match
But now I rot and await the day
When the Angels trumpet rings
With insects burrowing in my skull

Some'r teeth and Copenhagen (Some'r teeth and some ain't)
(This was written several years ago when I played in the band, Full Bore Crack Whore)
She's... Got... Cuts
From rusty razor blades
She hasn't bathed in days
And she smells like
Some'r teeth and Copenhagen
Lookin at you as she's winkin
Knows exactly what you're thinkin
Suckin down a fifth of juice
Just enough to get you loose
My... How she attracts the guys
And kinda like the flys, they linger
Tits swingin past her hips eatin dollar tips
Smell my finger
Slippin down the strippin pole
Lust distracts you from her...
She's... Got... Cuts

An Orchid in the Midnight Garden
She sings my overture in a note only I can hear
With words as sweet as rancid venomous kisses to my ear
Drowning out the sunlit world, influences I might attune
And drag me down to the blackest dungeon to the coldest of dark rooms
Wetness is but foreplay for
The dripping nightmares that breach my dreams
With my slumbering creatures she idly waits
In funeral garbs, for me
With blooming orchids of blood soaked thorn she spreads her canopy wings
Her darkness blocks the buried sun from cleansing thee unclean
Together we'll sing of placid...
With words as sweet as rancid venomous kisses to my ear
Drowning out the sunlit world, influences I might attune
And drag me down to the blackest dungeon to the coldest of dark rooms
Wetness is but foreplay for
The dripping nightmares that breach my dreams
With my slumbering creatures she idly waits
In funeral garbs, for me
