POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm just a cowboy. I've got some stories to tell and some scores to settle.
Winter Sucks - Spring Rocks
Let's face it
Winter Blows
Cold, snowy and gray
Dark and dismal
But then there is Spring
First buds coming up
The change in light
Hope
Here is my favorite tree
From last year's bloom
Smiles on faces
Love in the air

Ugh
Lately, the universal term for bad
is Ugh
If it's not good
It's Ugh
We are reducing ourselves
To cave person speak
In a word
Ugh ....
is Ugh
If it's not good
It's Ugh
We are reducing ourselves
To cave person speak
In a word

Monday Morning
Snowing
Work all screwed up
Dog won't do her business
Power out on one side of apartment
Still, I'm home with you
Coffee is brewing
Not so bad
I'll take it, wouldn't you ?

Tattoo on My Ass
After our love was gone
I tattooed your name on my ass
So I could sit on you
And you could feel the weight
Of the wreckage you left behind
And I laugh to myself
When natures calls
That the scent of my mission
Will be inhaled by you
Everyday forever more
I tattooed your name on my ass
So I could sit on you
And you could feel the weight
Of the wreckage you left behind
And I laugh to myself
When natures calls
That the scent of my mission
Will be inhaled by you
Everyday forever more

Mute Button
I wish I had a personal mute button
To silence people as they are speaking
If I don't like what I'm hearing
MUTE - you've been cut off

If I don't like what I'm hearing
MUTE - you've been cut off

Deli Coffee - New York City
The unmistakable scent of Deli Coffee
Fills the bus
You know it’s coffee
And you know it’s gonna be weak
Still, it’s morning
Late to work
The person in back of you has it
And you wish you had some
$1.00 for regular, $1.25 for flavored
It’s gonna get your eyes open
Maybe not like that hipster crap for $4.00
But Deli Coffee is still the value caffeine King

Black T-Shirt
My personal mantra
People look better in black
This is a love story
With black ...

Simple, Surreal, Attainable
Desire first
Love follows
Hand holding on the avenue
Simple, surreal, attainable
It’s right when you float
Texting from across the room
That one and only look
That lets you know
You are living
And breathing
Holding on for each moment
In the iconic love affair…

Moment In Time
there’s nobody left to blame
we just ran out of feeling
the impossible became possible
the tears have all dried
you were my desire plateau
my raven in flight
we came out of nowhere
we crashed but didn’t burn
let’s celebrate the highs
there’s to many to count
a beautiful love affair
a moment in time…

Intimacy
When I look at your mouth
I try to picture my lips on yours
An exquisite tongue dance
All of our longing
Colliding in a wave of intimacy
Holding you close
Knowing our moments are brief
An erotic coupling for those who dared…

Cheap Vodka
I used to draw from you
Drank your spirit
But you lost yourself in your own lies
And then you wanted the truth
But only if it was your truth
How many times could I want you
How many times was it not enough
You were once always by my side
But you challenged me by never exposing the real darkness
What do I do with you now
I’m walking away
You are stale beer
Bad wine
Cheap vodka
Not worth my scorn
Or even my lies
Drank your spirit
But you lost yourself in your own lies
And then you wanted the truth
But only if it was your truth
How many times could I want you
How many times was it not enough
You were once always by my side
But you challenged me by never exposing the real darkness
What do I do with you now
I’m walking away
You are stale beer
Bad wine
Cheap vodka
Not worth my scorn
Or even my lies
