Poet Introduction
I’m not a writer, you’ll see that in my writing. I just encountered inspiration recently and it took control of my pen.

The Fate of Words
A lustful romance
Probes the mind
Singing and dancing
It searches the castle
For the rarest of words
Those specially reserved for
magic, love, elegance and dance
It carefully tailors them for a form fit
Buffs them to a high shine
Curates them until they’re worthy of their message.
Then sends them off with a kiss
Melancholy
Retreats to the dungeon
Finds words long starved and left for dead
Lines them up in haphazard order
Then marches them out in the cold
To execute their duties

I Miss You
I miss your face
I miss how soft it feels against my lips
I miss how well it carries my mess
I miss how it sounds when I slap it
I miss your tears
I miss the way they accent your face
I miss the way they scare you
I miss licking them off your nipples
I miss your skin.
I miss the way it feels so soft
I miss the way it tears under my fingers
I miss the way it carries my marks
I love your mind
I love how you crave my touch
I love how you obsess about me
I love how completely I still control you
I miss how soft it feels against my lips
I miss how well it carries my mess
I miss how it sounds when I slap it
I miss your tears
I miss the way they accent your face
I miss the way they scare you
I miss licking them off your nipples
I miss your skin.
I miss the way it feels so soft
I miss the way it tears under my fingers
I miss the way it carries my marks
I love your mind
I love how you crave my touch
I love how you obsess about me
I love how completely I still control you

The Stranger
She wakes up to find
The house is in disarray
The cabinet doors are open
The back door is ajar
A stranger was in the house
She has no idea who he could be
She supposes she could ask
When he gets home from work
But he’s not doing any harm
The house is in disarray
The cabinet doors are open
The back door is ajar
A stranger was in the house
She has no idea who he could be
She supposes she could ask
When he gets home from work
But he’s not doing any harm

Single Frame
Your wet hair streaks down the page
Courteously revealing rain
Your eyes are slightly narrowed
Studying my every move
Your makeup still looks fresh
Wondering where I’ve been
Your mouth turns up at the edges
You’re up to something
Your neck vein vibrates
Crave pumps through your body
The next page is always blank
Steadfast secrets
You’re every frame draws me in
Courteously revealing rain
Your eyes are slightly narrowed
Studying my every move
Your makeup still looks fresh
Wondering where I’ve been
Your mouth turns up at the edges
You’re up to something
Your neck vein vibrates
Crave pumps through your body
The next page is always blank
Steadfast secrets
You’re every frame draws me in

Departure
She waited
And dimmed
Burning
The setting sun’s a heavy weight
She wallowed
Rotting
Horizon far behind
A heart’s a lover’s lovely urn
She endured
Brazen
Tear shaped
Hornets stitched her skin
She remembered
Searing
Slow dancing fireflies
Embers sparkling in his eyes
She reached
Frail hands’s
Stone and bone
Heed hot candle’s shapeless wax
She walked
Discerning
For a deep cold abyss
To walk within and swallow
She walked
And waited ...
And dimmed
Burning
The setting sun’s a heavy weight
She wallowed
Rotting
Horizon far behind
A heart’s a lover’s lovely urn

Coffee Cup Swirls
Coffee cup swirls
Cream joins blackness
Loses itself
Gives itself
To brighten its partner
A sweet new tone
Unique in all the world
Emerges from these two
This one delicate ratio
And they dance
Casting aroma swirls into the air
Sight, smell, philosophy
My day is brighter
I wish I could feel your sweet swirl today
Attacking my soul
Blending, sweetening me
Diluting yourself
To tune my aura
Sharpening my focus
On all the beauty laid before my eyes
Lighting my perspective
Easing my mind ...
Cream joins blackness
Loses itself
Gives itself
To brighten its partner
A sweet new tone
Unique in all the world
Emerges from these two
This one delicate ratio
And they dance
Casting aroma swirls into the air
Sight, smell, philosophy
My day is brighter
I wish I could feel your sweet swirl today
Attacking my soul
Blending, sweetening me
Diluting yourself
To tune my aura
Sharpening my focus
On all the beauty laid before my eyes
Lighting my perspective
Easing my mind ...

Fever Dream
I’m sick
It’s really bad
I’m writing this in a fever dream
I can see you laying here with me
But it’s you who’s sweaty
You’re so pale and burning up
Your eyes are rolling back behind their wet blankets
Only to return and search for me again
You’re probably having the craziest dream
You probably see me laying there
Across from you
Sweating
Squirming
Suffering
You wish I didn’t see you like this
I bet this hurts you
After all,
You so patiently taught me self care
So convincingly
then you were gone ...

Finding Somewhere
I have just enough gas
To drive us to nowhere
The middle distance from everywhere
Where it’s dark and calm
There’s no more nowhere to find
And we’re sure to find no one there
In a pitch black field of silence
When there’s nothing but nowhere everywhere
Somewhere lies in every direction.
The faintest of distant flames
Is a beacon of the possible
Guiding our way to someday
To drive us to nowhere
The middle distance from everywhere
Where it’s dark and calm
There’s no more nowhere to find
And we’re sure to find no one there
In a pitch black field of silence
When there’s nothing but nowhere everywhere
Somewhere lies in every direction.
The faintest of distant flames
Is a beacon of the possible
Guiding our way to someday

Last Goodbye
I’ll put my arms around you
Kiss you goodbye
No one needs to see us cry
You used my heart
To control my mind
Let me take your hand
Just one more time
Dance with me by the fire
I’ll push your hair back
So you can remember my eyes
Then walk me to the gallows
Hold my lantern
Take my watch
Turn around
Say goodbye
Kiss you goodbye
No one needs to see us cry
You used my heart
To control my mind
Let me take your hand
Just one more time
Dance with me by the fire
I’ll push your hair back
So you can remember my eyes
Then walk me to the gallows
Hold my lantern
Take my watch
Turn around
Say goodbye

Beware
I feel cruel and unusual.
I’m deceitful.
I’m a growling need and
I’ve been sharpening my teeth.
You’ll never see me coming.
I’m a predator,
and you’re a pitiful little thing.
Innocence excites my forked tongue
I leave no soul untouched
You’ll see
Kisses make my skin burn,
I hug you just to listen to your ribs crack
I’ll caress your neck, then wrap it in barbed wire
I’ll feed you love and watch it turn to sand
You should have listened to them
Hard hitting, I’m going to leave a crater
Wide awake,...

The Coffee Shop
He shouldnt be here. This is stalking. But He decided enough time had passed. And she would never expect to see him like this. So he began to track her, figuring he’d catch her scent in the market. Even a goddess needs to eat.
He’s surrounded by domesticated animals in high heels who have no idea something feral lurks among them. He’s picked more than a few of them out of his teeth before, but easy prey provides little thrill. He’s here for big game.
Hiding in plain sight is remarkably effective, but one always has a sense of feeling exposed. It’s as if people...

Moongrass
The light shimmers off the moon lit grass as the frost breaks it into an aroma of colors. It’s an otherwise calm night.
Her foot touches down as if being lowered from a machine. With the blood dripping off her toes, it could be a meathook she’s shrinking down from.
When he’s been around, she normally has a difficult time gaining her bearings. So it’s no surprise she doesn’t notice the blood or the frost stinging her bare feet.
She glances at the moon as if shooting a visual azimuth to steady herself; she can do this. She takes a step forward when she...
