POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am what you see. For all you will ever know is what you can see.
Nothing's for free
And if you can
tell me what you see
for your perception
is another piece of this reality
broken bits
of mirrored desire
left as debris
don't clean the mess
Nothing's for free
tell me what you see
for your perception
is another piece of this reality
broken bits
of mirrored desire
left as debris
don't clean the mess
Nothing's for free

Failing Shout
Standing here
See you there
Walk beside you
Step by step synchronized feet
And yet
You miss the beat
Change pace
Swap face?
Reaching out
Failing shout
Silence
All is silence
at my end
See you there
Walk beside you
Step by step synchronized feet
And yet
You miss the beat
Change pace
Swap face?
Reaching out
Failing shout
Silence
All is silence
at my end

Sour Taste
Can you see me?
Past the haze of your phase?
Is that glaze gone?
Or should I replace the face
that covers the window of this soul?
Don't hate
Don't waste your palate
spitting vinegar
the aftertaste
:shudder:
what distaste!

Don't Bitch, You're A Reflection
Talk. At.
communication
when all you get is disconnection
Don't bitch, you're a reflection
of their perception
of Your perception
Listen actively
don't sit and hear passively
ignoring me from your seat of two feet
accepting reality
finding roots in morality
Don't bitch, you're a reflection
of Their perception
of Your perception
Holes in this lattice
chaos fed on bits of data misplaced
Go ahead, try and manipulate
already have a full plate
of "Fuck you!" quite late
Don't bitch, you're a reflection...

Detached
Lost perception in association
dissociation
clinical, detached annotation
mental monologue of epic proportion
dissonant diatribe of violence and desecration
stride side by side
down the hallways of this mind

You and Me
You say you understand me
you say you accept me
you say you accept YOU
and yet you don't forgive YOU
you don't forgive me
you don't accept YOU
you don't accept me
You don't understand me
because YOU aren't ME
you say you accept me
you say you accept YOU
and yet you don't forgive YOU
you don't forgive me
you don't accept YOU
you don't accept me
You don't understand me
because YOU aren't ME

Start
Left my hand over there
behind my head
I think I stare
I start, and then 'ware
Data flow stops
starts
Heart beats
the visual art
of you, my heart.
