POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I compose music and weave words -- primarily about sex, desire, and rejection. I am a hedonist with a big heart. I swim in emotion, and welcome 'feeling.'
Treacherous Thing
take a look in my direction
don’t let your pride hold you back
‘cos when it comes to touch
I ain’t no Indian giver
I have shown you that much
some say your love’s my addiction
some say your heart’s too hard to crack
‘cos when you come to touch
I’m left with a shiver
and marred by your smutch
—
woman, girl
marvelous invention of sun-warmed milk and sugar
you are the most treacherous thing
woman, girl
I found my inspiration and I love you like no other
you are the most treacherous thing
—
just...

Beat Off
I beat off alone,
Must squeeze My cock to the bone—
My hand is not You.

Strange Angel
home
I am home again
in the foaming ebb
of waves at your feet

funny [how]
[how] her feet don’t touch the ground
been out of the churches for so long
yet because of she
I am closer to thee

I am shown again
to be alone again
I’d fade obsolete

since I’ve been loving you
the sky’s opened up
no higher flight
without you...

Remiss
Tumbling into an abyss,
Fumbling with ev’ry kiss,
We are precariously close
to a fatal dose
of ‘Forever’—perhaps remiss.

Mid-Night Coffee [She Ground My Beans]
My mid-night coffee
I remember drinking You in—
a chaser to the love-juices
that had crept in between Her legs.
Stroked and now stoked,
used, but ne’er abused—
for selflessly, She ground My beans.

Be There ...
I whittle away at words
with You on My mind,
broken and splintered,
but ‘whole’ nonetheless.
Ne’er has a person touched Me like You do touch Me.
Ne’er has a human twisted My insides so completely
that My creamy syrup seems secondary to My willing words.
Be there for Me soon;
I cannot wait another day.

Pancakes
Flattened like pancakes—
Your breasts smooth against Your chest.
Pose for Me longing.
Your breasts smooth against Your chest.
Pose for Me longing.

The Last Stand
I’ve watched the sun kiss a thousand clouds
how long must I wait for you?
tongue-tied, beseeched, avowed
how far must I strain for you?
once drunk in endless light
now starving in your shadow
it lingers beyond farewell
leaving all earthly things fallow
—
fire creeps along my veins
heat wells within my heart
once I was on your side
now I long to tear you apart
—
there’s nothing left to write
words fail me
adrift in a barren sea
I’m flailing
poised to dread the coming rains
and...

The Drink
I poured You some wine,
but You departed briskly.
I drank it alone.
but You departed briskly.
I drank it alone.

Thrust
Thrust a stiff tongue onto and into Me a noche.
No need to hold it back …
to suppress it—hidden like some secret snake
coiled inside Your mouth.
I require Your transgression …
Your aggression.
I want Your nails scraping cells off My Soul …
My skin aches for Your badge.
Tonight.
