POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I mostly write dark poetry, though like reading all. I prefer to write rhyming poetry but realize just how archaic that is. I do appreciate all forms.
Raw and Moaning
You rubbed it raw for me, you said.
You moaned for me on Audio.
Your pussy lips puffy and red,
You said this was my private show.
You told me to think of a rose
With tuft, pulling back lips for me.
Said you were never meant for clothes,
That you were only meant to please.
Only wearing waist-length black hair,
And hunger in those soft green eyes;
Was more than your soul you laid bare,
As you lie back spreading those thighs.
Oh yes, I still hear that moaning,
And in truth, just can't decide whether
I should...

Table Scraps
Spent so much time in the dog house
My only friend seemed to be rain,
And I truly came to espouse
Ideals of life spent on a chain.
Was not true silence suffered through,
No, echoes managed to creep in.
A dawg's ears, sharp, will catch what's true...
Yeah, it's no secret where you've been.
So when you finally came to me
And told me you missed me so much,
Shouldn't have been surprised really
I was hesitant to your touch.
Still the bone you gave me I took
For hunger of you, 'tis my crime.
You promising more, setting hook,...

A Thousand Sighs
Take two steps into darkness, and forever disappear?
Eternity the shattered hand of all that I revere.
Choice: die alone or wish upon the ankh of misery.
Words failing test of shadow drawn, I fade to memory.
At first you grasp, a needful thing; but with sharp elbows out.
Yet nothing found will ease the sting—erase the maddening doubt.
Given to eyes visions of lust, I've seen them all before.
Where your sweet lies left shattered trust in pieces on the floor.
The river of days winds and whines, Emptiness it's valley.
While somewhere...

Somebody's Baby
The moment I first saw you there,
Drawn by beauty beyond compare
To something more stirring within,
I knew tonight you'd be my sin.
Yes, somebody's baby before,
Oh you were meant for so much more.
With scarred hands trembling at first touch,
My God, I have missed this so much.
In shadow shared, your neck I kiss.
Soft fingertips, out of practice,
'Cross your skin glide—feel all untold...
All his neglect could not unfold
In palms cradled, eyes closed, breath held,
As passions of mind and soul meld;
My...

All in a Touch
Write down so as not to forget,
A dark empath, that chill on me...
Of soft touch set to devil's wrath—
Just how it felt to be set free.
The lure still there I stand my ground,
Will not invite that gaze again;
That without sound might yet indict
Me for trace of her on my skin.
Permissions long ago granted
To auras blend—to link my soul.
I begged recanted, in the end,
Somewhere along the Plains of Scheol.
The pain eternal, full regret,
Unforgiveness, all unmeant gifts.
To live and let live I profess,
Still question now...

Wings?
Are those wings real?" One might ask
This angel set to demon's task.
The webs she spins with widow's grace,
While hung in it, you watch her face...
A blazing symmetry of lust,
Sparkling like glitter, midst the dust.
The kisses of a seraph sweet
Enough to mask the pure deceit.
You open up to her graced tongue,
Believing all your past woes wrung;
Till lips on neck she bares those fangs
And leave you writhing in the pangs.
Your lifeblood drained, will to live gone;
Soon even hope of death is drawn
To that...

Giving In
Please forgive me, Father, for I know just what I do...
Lying down beside her knowing her love isn't true.
But 'times it seems nothing will ever fill this empty space.
Rather than face it alone, I'll accept my fall from grace.
Shadows of gray creep closer as the years, they hasten by
In wish I was the child staring through this old man's eyes.
Endless ache of austerity, I cannot stand within.
Sincerity, a ball and chain; my love, a charge of sin.
As sightless eyes catch whisper of another, "I love you,"
Deception, ah, the only...

Then There's You
And then there’s you…
You, who wear your sex like a crown,
Yet serve it up daily
To the starving masses
Gathering beneath your table
In hopes some sweet morsel
Falls their way!
What is it you take with you?
…When that tarnishing silver
Proves naught but a burdensome hollow–
...When all those eyes
Begin to look elsewhere,
And you realize the fallacy
You’ve clung to the whole of your life
Has just traded you in
On a newer model…
A slightly fresher version
Of yesterday’s same ol’ same ol’
While you fade to
Some stagnant...

Thing
Poetry is my soul.
Mine's been judged not worthy.
The silence takes its toll,
Leaves me naught but empty.
I try to walk away,
Always come stumbling back.
A cycle of dismay
That's turned my heart pitch black.
Being opened to need
Only invites despair.
A soft word plants a seed,
You wake to nothing there.
I fall into the void,
And pray there's no return
To body I destroy...
Reality I burn.
And yet eyes open again,
Somehow I'm still alive.
Though can't tell you where or when
Need in me was...
Mine's been judged not worthy.
The silence takes its toll,
Leaves me naught but empty.
I try to walk away,
Always come stumbling back.

That's turned my heart pitch black.

Damnation of the Soul
I drank from your thorned chalice.
I felt your good hard brick.
I've suffered as your malice
Left my heart feeling sick.
The rose that came to pierce steel,
You held me in my throes...
Till, with nothing left to feel,
I succumbed to your blows.
But no, you were not finished...
Such cruelty at hand.
With all my worth diminished,
My soul was not yet damned.
So you preyed upon the corpse,
Of a man, once knight, now naught
But a pauper time came to warp
In the hands of a despot.
I watched my lifeblood tasted,
As your...

Painted Devil
Why is it you still come to me
In private like you care?
When a devil you have painted me
To all others aware.
I so tire of your lying...
And the public shame cast.
But even more of your trying
To hang on to something past.
You're public silence is wounding,
So when you come to pet
This bad dawg and I yield a snarl,
Why are you surprised what you get?
I don't want your shadowed decree
Of the love you claim still felt.
Much prefer you just leave me be,
To get over the lies dealt.
Don't get me wrong, I wish you...
In private like you care?
When a devil you have painted me
To all others aware.
I so tire of your lying...
And the public shame cast.
But even more of your trying
To hang on to something past.
You're public silence is wounding,
So when you come to pet
This bad dawg and I yield a snarl,
Why are you surprised what you get?

Of the love you claim still felt.
Much prefer you just leave me be,
To get over the lies dealt.
Don't get me wrong, I wish you...
