Poet Introduction
I'm just a cowboy. I've got some stories to tell and some scores to settle.

A Tale of a Cup of Coffee
It feels safe here
A gentle escape from fame
My disguise working well
Even the guy at the Deli on the corner
Didn't pay me no mind
I asked for hazelnut instead of regular
It smells great but taste is often lacking
The story of my life wraps around coffee
I tried so hard to achieve greatness
Now hiding from the very thing I thought I wanted most
Everyone wants a piece of your privacy
Selling my soul for headlines was a mistake
I couldn't have known then, to busy with my arrogance
Shit, he put sugar in my coffee ...

Obtuse
Please lord
Spare me of righteousness
Allow me NOT to save souls
Let me bathe in sin
I seek honesty
I worship trust
Yet I am a heathen
To be clear
Spare me of righteousness
Allow me NOT to save souls
Let me bathe in sin
I seek honesty
I worship trust
Yet I am a heathen
To be clear

Cord, Bottle Caps, Cardboard = ART
Collage
On
Recycled Amazon cardboard
Fluorescent Lime Cord
.99 at the Super Store
Gatorade Zero bottle caps
Labor - 15 minutes tops ..
Could easily hang in a museum
Instead
It stays with me
Priceless

Night Call
Pulled me into your lair
Cocktails for 2
Let my passion hold you tight
Surrender ?

EROTIC POEM

The Doctor is Always Right
Your lab coat
White and virginal
But I know what lies beneath
A song bird, a vixen, a powerhouse
Of want, desire and lust
You've got the prescription
I've got the rock hard passion
Colliding in your warm regions
Science, literature, erotica
We serve
Each other....

A Romantic..
want and romance
and then
the opening
the walkway looking west
a small cutaway
I held you close
staring into your laser eyes
holding you tight
tenderness spinning out of control
a new control emerged
one you knew was buried
deep in my brow
matching you stare for stare
electrons and gamma rays
cross stimulation
I took your smile
and marked it
with my mine
taking you
under my wing
protecting you
feeding you
giving you...

I wouldn't say Suicidal but January Challenges One ...
The gloom
Early sunset
Cold earth
Waiting
Just waiting
For what you ask
You know
For a reason to believe
For one warmer day to tease us
For anything
A laugh
A smile
An embrace....

Training Mission South Pole
Stationed off the grid
Population under 50
CIA comrades
Hookers wearing a wire
Granola with Wild Turkey 101
Booting Heroin speedballs
A life we chose
Exile from normal
No filter
Penguin Bar after dark
No cover
Juke box takes coins only
Black night
No stars
The color of salvation
BBQ with the enemy tonight
Tomorrow is cancelled
Population under 50
CIA comrades
Hookers wearing a wire
Granola with Wild Turkey 101
Booting Heroin speedballs
A life we chose
Exile from normal
No filter
Penguin Bar after dark
No cover
Juke box takes coins only
Black night
No stars
The color of salvation
BBQ with the enemy tonight
Tomorrow is cancelled

How long do I have to say happy new year?
I write this poem every year
I'm already sick of good cheer
Optimism is another no go
Sullen and Sulky is my usual
When I'm being a sarcastic fuck
Then you know I'm happy
I'm already sick of good cheer
Optimism is another no go
Sullen and Sulky is my usual
When I'm being a sarcastic fuck
Then you know I'm happy

I know what toilet paper my sexy neighbor uses
Home delivery
Apt. Building
We see what everyone buys
Small building
Your secrets aren't safe
So
BIG BOX
30 rolls of Angel Soft
I’m a Charmin Soft guy
Shouldn’t be a problem

Strung Out
No
Not me
I’m pretty innocent
No drugs
Alcohol sparingly
Weird sex needs
But
Seriously
If it’s not weird
Who needs it ?
