POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have never seen myself as a poet, but the words are scattered across my mind like Autumn leaves soaked and decaying on a late winter morn. I need to clear the corners of my skull, the piles have become too deep to keep inside.
More from the Funny Farm
So even though everyone here had their own problems to deal with, it seems that we were all brought together by our shared desires. The desire to heal, to understand, to find a way back to some form of normalcy. Each person, strangers one and all, became brothers and sisters of a sort. Their lives touched my heart, their suffering touched my soul.

I wish I knew you - 9/13/91
Our glances pass each other
locking us as one.
Your beauty leaves me helpless
brighter than the sun.
The delicacy of your face
and the luster of your hair.
Leave me secure in your arms
without a single care.
The sparkle in your eyes
and the tenderness of your touch.
Holds me tight within your love
giving me so much.
The laughter in your voice
helping to make me smile.
Keeps a love in my heart
glowing all the while.
Watching you intent
upon the book you read.

Demon - 10/7/91
The murky waters
deep within
parted.
Ripples slowly spread
outward until they reached
the far shore,
reverberating back
to attack
their fellows.
He slipped away
unconscious of the chaos
left behind.
He had
business above
which could not
wait.
Silently sliding through
the corridors
of my mind.
He sulked through
the dusty halls
towards a long
forgotten goal.
Alarms began to sound!
I couldn't let him
reach his goal.
If he got there
I...

Transportation Haikus - inspired by David_MacLeod
Inspired by David_MacLeod's wonderful haikus:-)
(i) cars
Little cars glide by
Ants marching down the roadway
Mountain views delight
(ii) planes
Winged cylinders go
Sliding quickly down runways
Airplanes lifting off
(iii) trucks
Smog belching monsters
Eighteen wheelers rumble on
Swallowing highways
(iv) bikes
Two wheeled zephyrs fly
Dangerously around curves
Motorcycles hum
(v) trains
Metal...

My stay at the Funny Farm
Well I spent two very interesting weeks at two wonderous local spas. We worked at revitalizing my mind and spirit and made some discoveries. These places have some very regimented plans, but if you play by their rules you can have a wonderful time. I really expected a slightly higher culinary experience considering the cost and the wine selection, non-existent. But the staff was very attentive, almost like they always knew where I was at all times. There were informational seminars and I met some wonderful people.
But truthfully everyone, the next entry in my non-fiction prose was a...

My favorite game
The soft sensual feel
of your skin
in my hands
absorbs my attention.
The seconds stretch
and minutes slide by
and soft moans of contentment
escape your lips.
Your muscles unknotting
the day slips away
and finally it is
just you
just me.
My mind drifts from
the feel of your body
to the taste of your lips.
I roll you over
lean into you
my chest brushes your nipples
the taste of
Starbucks and strawberries
fills my mouth.
Our tongues dance briefly ...

Novocaine
I want something
to numb my mind
and take
away the pain.
Something to stop the
sacrilegious dance
of the demons
in my head.
They cavort on the inside
of my skull
upstairs neighbors
keeping me up at night.
One little shot so that
I can't feel their
twisted hooves carving
sins into my soul.

Tornado
My mind is like a neighborhood after the devastation of a tornado.
Silent destruction you just can't describe, broken lives strewn across the street.
You can see the quiet, orderly words meant to grace the page all tangled and mangled and torn.
I read the colloquies so well penned by others and wonder why as I try write the storms have destroyed all my lines.
I want so badly to convey the things that make me silently scream inside.
But instead I am left picking up photos and keepsakes in the early morning light.

Sex is my drug of choice
Sex is my drug of choice
hoping to OD
Mistress of my soul
submission her demand
Damsel beseeching salvation
from my gentle hand
Sex is my drug of choice
maybe it will set me free
Hell just two more lines
then I'll have a buzz
But that was no good
mainlining from now on
Sex is my drug of choice
it will surely take me down
Breaking promises I have made
can't seem to get it right
Taking the forbidden
just because it's ripe
Sex is my drug of choice
coming to the end
Too little,...
