POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Pressed flowers
The wordy win and swoon
while most remain cocooned
ingrained in our veins
to gain and impress
stained I digress
the crone knows that
Pressed flowers still wild
And stress when invested
and loath to feel lonely
yet nevertheless
at arms stretch from the rest
we subject ourselves
isolate, depress
the cusp of banter
with feigned interest
Pressed flowers still wilt
Honed to self-help
stoned till morrow
opportune corridors
hearken darkened paths
Pressed flowers still...

Been had
The depths of deception
They keep on digging
and try and outpace the damned
and they'll keep on winning
dignity is deceased
and do it while grinning
devoted liars never let up
They'll murder sleeping dogs
before whistles blow
the pups can't come running
no bone to be thrown
defend till the last day is due
and still convicted
Deny, deny
and still in the face of truth
Exposed they're composed
The narcissistic face of stillness
Protecting the ego until dying days
Don't try to be a victor
Stay the f**k...

The minority report
Practically purposeful, pass to perfection
Packed in a percolated box to breathe
Endlessly listed, engulfed by mistakes
Bend over, you're enlisted, en mass or your head
The pendulum berates and perpetuates the cold
The auction is over, your soul is sold
Protrudes is perfume, and penetrates the poll
Opinions don't sum and minions pay tolls
Objectives excluded, pursued objects ensnared
Famous get oscars, awe to the pair
99% and you are one of tons
and that 1% is practically...

Momentary
Kiss and tell
My heartbeats a breath choked
The spells tolled
A bell tolls
Heart, stroke, and ache
Ding ding dong
And time tells
Which stroke is misspelled
This broken mistake
My heartbeats a breath choked
The spells tolled
A bell tolls
Heart, stroke, and ache
Ding ding dong
And time tells
Which stroke is misspelled
This broken mistake

Livers lose
A concious state of mind
Mind the step don't miss it
Freedom from a numb sadistic
That dense state of mind
or mind of the state
blast it I self actuate
self-afflicted crimes astray
Sinister sins a sinister gate
And somewhere I'm immaculate
Where my legs been?
Deep until the pegstand
cut off the legs been
Reality or realty
they're squealing for cash
and feeling the rash
A gradual disconnect from this, really
And though I missed them
what answers best, I do confess
I miss remorse,...

Escape delirium
That's my serum
No more fear and them
No more Siri
Hysteria blaring up every stair
creeping under the door
A floods worth
a googolplex
oodles,
microphone on
murder your kitten
shoot your dog
Hard break, press on.

Frozen from a gaze
Frozen from a gaze,
I'm phased with all this change
the rash of past games is something I've contained
It derails my readiness to trust eyes rained with hazel.
But minutes in these showers
and I am hit by her thunder
Every inch deeper
brings discovery grown thicker
Everything learned is lost in a wormhole
No performances mandated to pierce me with this lust.
Sporting enriched, flowering creativity
Gripped only by the similar mind, and its me
Genuine love is usually in questions
But this dreamy reality makes me the goof...
