ditto
hiding in sight
with nothing inside
filling the nothing
with whatever I find
sense your dislikes
discover your tells
deforming myself
against your invisible will
slipping defenses
to uncover the key
for my relentless
re-entry
sands of time
inevitably break the spell
leaving one locked door
and a broken shell
with nothing inside
filling the nothing
with whatever I find
sense your dislikes
discover your tells
deforming myself
against your invisible will
slipping defenses
to uncover the key
for my relentless
re-entry
sands of time
inevitably break the spell
leaving one locked door
and a broken shell

says who?
who deserves to live
who deserves to die
who deserves to draw
the line that divides
some say God
says some man
wait til the end
all part of His plan
but do onto others
man will do onto you
a type of sentence
he reckons your due
sans an afterlife
and living in Hell
salvation reached
anytime I will
moral quandaries
imaginary boundaries
fabricating restrictions
suffocating reality
who deserves to die
who deserves to draw
the line that divides
some say God
says some man
wait til the end
all part of His plan
but do onto others
man will do onto you
a type of sentence
he reckons your due
sans an afterlife
and living in Hell
salvation reached
anytime I will
moral quandaries
imaginary boundaries
fabricating restrictions
suffocating reality

happiness in a bottle
hope and despair
entwine as a pair
pleasure stalked quickly
by pain and misery
allure of happiness
billows clouds of bliss
what festers inside
is consequence missed
with contentment fleeting
what’s lost laid bare
a void in my heart
fills with despair
pleasure will tempt
towards vice and sin
sealing your fate
to suffer within
entwine as a pair
pleasure stalked quickly
by pain and misery
allure of happiness
billows clouds of bliss
what festers inside
is consequence missed
with contentment fleeting
what’s lost laid bare
a void in my heart
fills with despair
pleasure will tempt
towards vice and sin
sealing your fate
to suffer within

Luna
bird-boned
cat-graced
bat-faced
owl-eyed emerald
pits of Huntress
ferocity
a chaotic creature
with pleasure
insatiable
clawing for souls
through realms
of shadow
ripping phalanges
of crimson
tears
peeping mewls
of demonic
delight
moonlight
to my dark
night
cat-graced

clawing for souls
through realms
of shadow
ripping phalanges

peeping mewls

616ft
shovel-bound
for Hades
to greet
certain doom…
the scratching
and rasping
won’t cease
at my throat…
a traveling farmer
spots my distress
changing directions
to stop and assist
please
a drink..
if you have
to spare…
desert
of dirt..
unable
to bear…
tossing me down
a jug full of water
he lends me his hand
to pull me from slaughter
refusing
the offer…
no saviors
here…
I’m born
to die…
it’s Hell ...
for Hades
to greet
certain doom…
the scratching
and rasping
won’t cease

Ferryman's Toll - with Adagio
naked in
poetic leisure
like a flash
of Genesis
seven days
a weak
remove my eyes
to seek horizons
on Charon’s boat
to Nirvana
in flesh’s artifact
of pathology
a stone rose
grows thorns
in Eden

Text Prison
strolling through
humming a tune
an intruder pops
through my mind
he says hello
I state goodbye
he persists to greet
sleepless nights
I beg him to go
his laugh of hell no
clipping dream’s
ability for flight
desperately I ink
desist and decease
the sentence
a paragraph of text
humming a tune
an intruder pops
through my mind
he says hello
I state goodbye
he persists to greet
sleepless nights
I beg him to go
his laugh of hell no

desist and decease

I am me
what’s it even mean?
I can be anyone I see
I am me
shining brightly
like a counterfeit ring
I am me
trying my best
to be a want you need
I am me
living the dream
from a stranger’s sleep
I am me
giving it my all
in hope hearts will fall
I am me
staring at the sea
unsure what I ought to be
I can be anyone I see
I am me
shining brightly
like a counterfeit ring
I am me
trying my best
to be a want you need
I am me
living the dream
from a stranger’s sleep
I am me
giving it my all
in hope hearts will fall
I am me
staring at the sea
unsure what I ought to be

After Party
when soul departs
to spirit kingdom
reuniting with lost family
everlasting company
consists of loved ones
convinced of the book we read
spreading the truth
to unrepentant youth
10% is the nominal fee
banishing murders, queers
swindlers and non-believers
to a lesser heaven than thee
convert your family
neighbors, ex-religious saviors
any damned heathen you see
if you break the record
the prophet might say
welcome to level 3

Fruitless Days
scarecrow’s orchard
of fruitless trees
my labor, my life, my love
all season toiled
through frozen soil
for a taste of nectarine’s delight
spring buried alive
beneath butterfly tome-stones
offer Nature’s bounty reap
a broken lock
an empty stock
harvest
my labor, my love...my life
of fruitless trees
my labor, my life, my love
all season toiled
through frozen soil
for a taste of nectarine’s delight
spring buried alive
beneath butterfly tome-stones
offer Nature’s bounty reap
a broken lock
an empty stock
harvest
my labor, my love...my life

Dinner with Hannibal
Hannibal the cannibal
that beastly animal
invited me over for tea
when I arrived
came a surprise
dinner was going to be me
in hazy daze
I set ablaze
all my vision could see
when I awoke
my body spoke
dinner is going to be me
that beastly animal
invited me over for tea
when I arrived
came a surprise
dinner was going to be me
in hazy daze
I set ablaze
all my vision could see
when I awoke
my body spoke
dinner is going to be me

I believe in aliens
aliens exist
witnessed first-hand
when I stopped to help
some alien man
abducted to space
by extraterrestrial beings
I was assured intent
of existential meanings
experimental probes
astronomical objects
black hole explodes
on Milky Way’s carpet
5150
locked me away
government cover-up
that’s what I say
If aliens unreal
none of it true
how did I birth
my son of two?
