Poet Introduction
Been writing poetry since my teens. I just write what I feel. Poems are usually on the darker side.

Disfigured Constellations
Through the darkness treasured I stroll in step with death
Stalking snaking trails over trodden with the debris of life
Disfigured in my anger I loathe the sun and cast devious shadows on hallowed soil
Distinguished stars align my soul with obscurity
For far better vices have grasped at my heartstrings but none better then self damnation
As I deteriorate all else does rot and the stench of it all soothes me so
Trenching through the madness of diluted truths
Intoxicating lies bless me sweetly
Surrounding forests encircle and loom overhead throwing...

Where Roses Die
Fragmented
Oddly shattered shards of a life left behind
She left me there
Where roses die and withered sighs drift silently
Into nothingness
Fields of decay her gift to me
Smother the soul and destroy the man
Judas betrayal begets but sorrow
In glimpses I espy
Her slender form to pass me by
I adore the whore
Lust
Tunnel vision
I suture eyes shut
See me not as I am
The wretch of me suffer down
Abandonment
Hauntingly cruel her body cold
I tried to follow but could not go
...

Iris
Distilling dreams I linger on, getting lost deeper into darker voids
Under abhored observance I ply my trade
Counting fantasy into infinite realities I caress the brink of chaos
A harbinger of dying worlds
Unfolding seams I tear the stitch of grace and offer vague hints of countless sheep
Behold the eyes of the destroyer
Under abhored observance I ply my trade
Counting fantasy into infinite realities I caress the brink of chaos
A harbinger of dying worlds
Unfolding seams I tear the stitch of grace and offer vague hints of countless sheep
Behold the eyes of the destroyer

Mother
This gift of death never blessed with subtleties kiss
Frost for roses
The art of matricide is lost in colder gardens
Better suited for glassy souls cut with diamonds
Vermillion at war with ivory
Like rouge lips upon pale flesh
I gift these things
Playful with sin
I gift these things
Frost for roses?
A bemusment of sorts
Harsher truths never tasted so sweet
The folly of enchantment lies within bedazzeled eyes
Sweet mother
Smothered
Insane in utero
Children weep not tears of love
Damnation with a smile ...

A Floret for You
A floret of death to persuade your hands
The horror of a thousand days give birth to sage like ambiance
I defer to shadows and opt for neglect in these dying gardens
For further into madness those bleeding eyes quell the storm of seasons
Offerings of shattered dreams stir not the oceans of fluidity
Damnation to appease the bold
A threshold into oblivions gaze to bless the putrid
Eminant anonymity to peirce the shroud of decadence
A deeper pain gifted in goodness wasted
Deep in the abyss of my ruin
I sway in step to stagnant views
And...

Espy the Storm
I espy a storm, risen in the west
enveloped in fanning flames
carried on the wind of plague
I weep the world over
whispered in silent circles
I dream of coups to distort the sun
Overtrodden with woe I begin to sew
Reaping in the huddled masses as Death comes sweeping
The smoke settles on the horizon
fleeting kisses for the west
I set my sights on the North star
the plains of ruin begot my hand
For damaged feathers set the pace upon tattered wings of my disgrace
I light the pyre as all else burns with...

Her Winter Heart
You were always better broken
This distillers dawn to stretch the pain
A thousand roses to succumb to frost
And your name whispered in their dismay
December’s kiss lost on the wind
Better to waste these lost serenades on colder days
I see you there
Fouling in despair
A despot toiling in the bluffs of whirling snow
Amongst the curling burls of impoverished souls
With roots that writhe with carnal flair
This distillers dawn to stretch the pain
A thousand roses to succumb to frost
And your name whispered in their dismay
December’s kiss lost on the wind
Better to waste these lost serenades on colder days
I see you there
Fouling in despair
A despot toiling in the bluffs of whirling snow
Amongst the curling burls of impoverished souls
With roots that writhe with carnal flair

To the Slaughter
Daylight breaks the silence of crude pleasures long abhorred
Awakening to older sighs that breach pain from within
Sordid treasures in the dark, far-flung from carnal halls
The voices utter chaos a paradox of whims
For madness creeps within the mind of others laced with sin
A millennia of wanton acts liken him to death
A procrastinator of faith he guides sermons to the fall
Of poisoned tongues that lick and sting at weak ones in the maw
A paradise long lost at servitudes lost kiss
A deeper wretch to harken forth their suffering abroad
...

A Dream of Shadows
Counting stones I linger in the pensive shadows of yesteryear
The grueling hours elongated by the suffering of oracles
The behemoth rises on the horizon and blots out the sun
A harbinger of dueling giants bring forth the eclipse
These dying gardens beg for rebirth and from ashen ground the stones are formed
Mournful dew on rotted trees
The tears of giants, lonely in their lowly trials
A pilgrimage of forgotten woe and still I count here to and fro
The grueling hours elongated by the suffering of oracles
The behemoth rises on the horizon and blots out the sun
A harbinger of dueling giants bring forth the eclipse
These dying gardens beg for rebirth and from ashen ground the stones are formed
Mournful dew on rotted trees
The tears of giants, lonely in their lowly trials
A pilgrimage of forgotten woe and still I count here to and fro

Forlorn
Hunched over in my indecision to subjugate one from three
I count the shadows running headlong from my empty dreams
Over yonder in the darker circles of my life I espy a glimpse of fortunes long since whispered gone
Empty cups of tea have always favored my old bones
I pick at the scabs and scars of lesser wounds and find absolution in my toiling
Never was there such a sight as tissue writhing in agony
Spent wishes and salty kisses render my flaccid ego wasted
I look upon a blanket of stars that only wink with their dismay
Those bastard oceans far...

A Lesser Gift
Looking for sympathy I falter to a golden ruse
An era of melancholy besets my heart
Playing with shadows always suited my palette
Darker conformities seek pleasure in my embrace
Suicide opted in lieu of chaos
Vermillion but a gift I offer the sun
Bleeding in my disconnect I paint parchments in fugue
Broken I prod at forsaken truths and pull the skies southward in futility
A better damnation to pass this wretch over
And the gift of life wasted in the womb of mother
The after birth a blessed rite
An era of melancholy besets my heart
Playing with shadows always suited my palette
Darker conformities seek pleasure in my embrace
Suicide opted in lieu of chaos
Vermillion but a gift I offer the sun
Bleeding in my disconnect I paint parchments in fugue
Broken I prod at forsaken truths and pull the skies southward in futility
A better damnation to pass this wretch over
And the gift of life wasted in the womb of mother
The after birth a blessed rite
