POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I want to show aspects of myself and observations of others and life that I hope entertains you whether sexually,intellectually,or artistically
The Raven Flies
I call myself the Raven Prince, for I am dark, intelligent and wise, and playful to a fault, shy enough to not trust enough until an allotted time of my choosing and even then I am on my guard of you.
A Raven is a solitary creatures at times
unlike the Crow with a clan perhaps
numbering in the tens to a hundred strong.
Me, I am no Crow.
I am but a lonely Raven with only a few raven friends
who find me.
A Lonely life, for even the other ravens do not truly know me
Not for any of the ways I find I need them to.
So I am a lonely Raven even when...

Raven's Keep
The Ravenprince
He will always know a certain darkness,
always dwell in it no matter how
light the days.
And that is all well and good.

Our Energies
She is nestled here amongst me,
our energies intertwined
exchanging soft electricity,
nuzzling.
A quiet moment created where space
and time slows,
juxtaposed
with love and longing
amid fears and frailties
that are forever timeless.
She shouldn't have to wonder, nor
should she ever worry in regards
to if we are forever.
But she does, oh she does,
soft and hard she does.
I hold her all the tighter
so she knows my energy is all hers,
pure and bright as the noon day
sun and just as...

Life Be Trippin
The sex was going great until the pills wore off
and the world spun out irate.
I had only just started really getting into her when it was
suddenly all done.
Disappointed?
Fuck Yeah, Life Be Trippin' like that...
Why can't it be like when I was six, just
daydreaming and having fun.
Forts, bicycling, and ice cream under a
frantic delicious daze of days in the sun.
Nowhere and everywhere at once I was.
Life be trippin' now boy.
I've never been the same since that
feeling of...

Been there Done that
I hear your emotions
feel them rolling over me
and this scene seems
familiar.
The last one was like you a bit
Scarred, bent, broken,
I realized too late
perhaps.
The first,
I picked up her pieces
but I missed a few
I unbent her,
just
not enough.
It all seems to be
being replayed,
this scene.
My life on
a loop
Let me off
this Merry Go Round
I didn't buy a
ticket for the same
ride I was on.
Let me off
before I
throw up.

Knowing you
Strange, what a first meeting
is between two
future lovers.
Primal,
at it’s inception
Eyes wide with that
of
the big bad wolf
looking upon
Miss Riding Hood
while all the while
Red is looking over her
shoulder with the same
intensity
The same thirst to dry
up a thousand oceans.
No matter how instant
of a glance, it was there
in both of them,
each knowing
the other
in that captured
moment.
One secret not hidden
amongst all the rest
not known.
Hopefully more to ...

future lovers.

Trip to the Store
Mind always seeking,
drinking in the sights.
Even when out and about
performing the mundane task
of grocery shopping.
Suddenly, my vision is grabbed
as it always is
A tight little butt
in too thin leggings
With every line defined
divinely.
as I see her reach for the
Cheerios
upon the top most shelf
on tip toes,
I could help her but I like to
see her body reaching,
So I continue pushing
my cart down the aisle.
The next girl
Is in full squat
In the vegetable section ...

Thrown Away
I don't want to be angry
but I am.
I don't want to punch a wall
so I resist the urge and
my fists shake with the
restraint.
I don't want to scream
at the top of my lungs
so I stifle and muffle
the sounds.
Like you did long ago.
Similar to tying up a bag of
crying kittens to
throw off a bridge
(And I hate that analogy
But it fits.)
I wanted to be everything
to you.
Simple enough, right?
Your rock
Your lover
Your friend
But you tied that bag
tight with lies and
deceit and...
but I am.

Ambivalent about being Ambivalent
Why do I wish to be alone
when love sits along
side me,
cuddling deep?
Perhaps because
my company
is needed
but not wanted,
because in the
wanting there is a desire
in the knowing
of the other.
Skin to skin
Warmth to warmth
feels good, comforting
But a cold ocean
of distance often
separates my world
from hers and I
can't draw her
over to my island
to keep me
company.
I see the magic in her
but she rarely sees
it in me.
She just lets me be ...
