POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write on many topics, but my favorite topics are Love (particularly age-gap, and age-gap between human and humanoid mythical creatures), high seas piracy, Paganism, morbidity, and my emotions.
The Interconnectedness of Nature
The tree grows tall,
The flower's petals fall,
The butterfly flies high,
The full moon is nigh.
The flower's petals fall,
The butterfly flies high,
The full moon is nigh.

What do You Think About That?
There sits the yolk colored, moldy, sponge,
Moist, infested with maggots they can't expunge.
Water dripping onto the sponge, which soaks it up 'till bulbous.
Like a pustule that does secrete and fester, treacherous.
Malaise, coughing up phlegm,
Gurgling intestines, to a lugubrious blog, they have condemn.
Sitting at the computer, talking about the foetus she just lost,
While eating large curd cottage cheese she did smear on toast.
Quite a chunky snack,
She no longer felt queasy, with less stomach feedback.
As she puts each bite...

The Perfect News Story
Every time I hear about you,
Comes the feelings oh, so true,
I don't care for your achievements, I. HATE. YOU.
I. HATE. YOU!
Every time I see your photo,
Every time you post a new photo,
I know I shouldn't care,
But there you are.
I become so angry,
Boiling anger, blistering fury,
You're a slutty, bimbo,
You waste of space dumbo.
I'm glad you haven't died yet,
'Causd maybe some day I'll cause your bloodshed,
Hurt you, 'till you regret,
Not having died yet.

Hallmark
Oh, Please!
I am sick of those Hallmark movies,
Where the mother is so involved in her daughters love life,
And forcefully tries to set her up for life!
Some women are actually happier single!
And not a single one, not a single...
Is LGBTQIAP+,
It makes me furious,
I don't like the meddling,
It really is rather sickening,
But at least can we see a mother trying to set her gay son up with another man,
Or a mother trying to set up her lesbian daughter with another woman,
Or perhaps a father interfering in their child's love...

War
It is a new dawn,
I arrive here in spawn,
Wrench in hand,
Prepared to go searching for that metal, scant.
My army finally arrives,
Dancing, drinking, and enjoying their last moments before fighting for their lives.
Cooped up, like bulls in a bullpen,
"Mission begins in 10..."
Voice booming over the loudspeaker,
The countdown begins, familiar,
"5...4...3...2...1...Begin!"
Running out of our spawn, a team of mercenaries, of assassins.
Some run straight to the front lines,
Some...

Metamorphosis
The past three years have been so crazy,
I barely remember them, so hazy,
Except for the most important of details,
I fell for the best human being ever and began to let go of fear's handrails,
Changed from Wicca to full Paganism,
And decided I want to be a part of LGBTQIAP+ activism.
I Am in love with the best human in all of existence,
Our meeting was no coincidence, I don't care of our distance,
And because of him, I have let go of so much of my fear,
And have learned so much, including how to better myself, year after year. ...

I Pray
I close my teary eyes,
Look to the moonlit skies,
And to the gods I pray,
That maybe someday,
We may meet again,
And that when we do I will no longer have to refrain,
From telling you how I feel,
How our first meeting was such a thrill.
How I was happy alone,
Until I found a love, unknown...
You,
Sweet, kind, intelligent, funny, interesting, beautiful, wise, sensible, talented, you.
How, I know that all will be alright,
Because when I look up at night,
The stars spell...

I Want to be Free
My empathetic sensitivity,
Bombarded by toxic negativity,
Loud, depressing, fast-talking, wordy, politics,
Surveillance, coalition, ethics, tactics.
I love big, fancy, words, but there are absolutely no laymans terms!
Talk of problems and victims...
Oh, I'll show you victims...
I can't take the tv barbarisms and the narcissisms.
Your life is stuck in the doldrums,
If I had my way, no one would know for days,
Of your covered airways,
Or perhaps your stab wounds,
While I pull away like bergshrunds,
And go...

A Sad Nihilism (or I Want to go Home)
Oh, mother of my mother,
Who is basically a stranger,
Spending weeks at a time with thou,
Is driving me raving mad now.
I came to help thee with the daily tasks of living,
Time together, mother thought we would be spending,
And getting to know one another,
But this trip has made my thoughts sober.
All day sitting in the chair,
Getting up to walk here and there,
Then sitting back down,
Only to watch tv shows, that inside, make me frown.
How can thou continue to watch,
Depressing shows, like...

What is Love?
What is love?
Love is a paw on your lips in the morning to tell you they're hungry,
Love is yelling at you when you don't hurry,
Love is long whiskers, and big eyes,
Love is fur lit by sunlit skies.
Love is a slinky shadow, and a striped grey lynx,
Love is a sunkissed, grey with tan Sphinx.
Love is a trouble making-camouflaging-ninja-panther,
Love is, in the corner of your vision, the cat running past, a blur.
Love is a paw swinging at the clumsy, dog oaf,
Love is a skinny string bean, and a curled up, fat, cat...

Just Smile and Nod
Grandma, spending time with you is fun,
We watch old movies, a little bit of true crime, and cooking shows,
Those are the things we have in common.
But there are some topic no-nos,
We don't discuss religion or politics,
Or LGBTQIAP+,
I leave out the specifics,
Like my PolarDemiBisexuality, and my Trigenderflux, that would be dangerous,
As well as my Paganism,
I don't want you thinking I'm going to hell, or doing dangerous things.
And you'll think my religion is barbarism,
I love you, so I'll hold in most of my opinions and...
