Poet Introduction
I have some damn bad intentions and can see the world in more than 25 dimensions, but I know what I am and although I seek no approval you may think what you like.
Diving Under His Skin
I find myself being swallowed inside
No weight against the current I don't fight
He feels me swimming through with fingers
tracing every muscle and edge
My journey over this landscape is a nice tread
Digging and digging I sink in nail and teeth
The sweet soil and sweat of this earth bound man
is something that I contribute to God's natural plan
His eyes of silvery blue remind me of the foam brushing
against the rocks on the Greek islands
Laying under him and laying in him have become
a universal aphrodisiac to the senses and mind
At...

WANTED: In Need of LoverBoy Rodriguez
Dear Anyone,
Please bring him back to me, the boy I once
knew who loved me for me
He's tall and always making me smile
Please find him for me because he compliments my style
I remember the things I had all planned out
He's the only dude who calms me when I run my mouth
LoverBoy I'm missing everything that we could've had
I need your cool vibes and to remember the past
Do you miss my grins and the way I laugh?
Someone tell me if you've seen my man
No one has the hold on me like he can
I think...

Apartment 777
2 am, I arise from my bed in
search of something satisfying
No, I don't want food, I want
something a little more tasty
I walk over to my window and
stare down at the vagrants roaming
the streets like rats. Oh wait, I think
I found my red light special after all
He's tall and pale like a fresh corpse
Shoulders broad with hair dark as
tar. I fantasized about the possibilities
and then he was on the move
I moved quick as lightning to my closet
picking out my Gucci leather jeans and
my skull printed sheer tank. Oh yeah...

Battered Behind the Glass
My jaw may be broken but
I still love my bleeding smile
Sometimes I think back on the
little things that made it all worth
it, but it is all over
We used to love each other
and sex on the regular but
I never thought I would turn
black blue. Why don't you love
me anymore babe?
Our friends see love in us. So why
do I feel so empty; no love within me
I want to go somewhere that is home
What would my mother think if she
knew? Oh someone help me
Marry him they said. Happiness means
nothing they said. Damn them for...

Love in Sydney
I was fresh off the boat in the city
of Sydney with nothing but a duffle bag
and the thoughts that kept me then I
saw him standing there with
shades and jet black hair
Damn he was beautiful
The sun beaming down across
the water made him look like
something out of a fairy tale
I couldn't help myself
I walked up to him and introduced
myself, only because I was feeling bold
He smiled and took my hand planting
a sweet kiss on my knuckles
I had never felt so happy go lucky
While walking along the pier I

Dark Days on the Block
Just another day in the underground
where all you hear are guns and
the ambulance siren
But this is nothing new
Kids playin over needles in the
street while mommy is inside
beating the boyfriend's meat
So sad but this is not unusual
In my brownstone I see everything
from the church steeple where
the infidels cower to alcatraz
where the inmates shower
My heart bleeds watching the hookers
roam, up and down six avenue
looking for a john and his hopefully
large pole
The zone we die in isn't far from you
but...

Raw Jailbait
She dated him for two years
that sounds like fun
But I doubt people didn't notice
she was sixteen and him twenty-one
Yeah I know it sounds dumb but
what could we tell her
Keep your legs cold
and pray to go for no scarlet letter?
Society sees him as a pedophile
and she sees him as her lover
We can't help but smile
since we know they love each other
My heart goes out to anyone who
can love someone that way
Some say they have but it is hard to do
Knowing that there will be some pain
Her daddy isn't around...

Compensation for the Damned
Alone and cold were my solid feelings
Blatant disregard from the living for
what brought forth my tears
Why not spit on my hopes?
Does it give you solace knowing
I am in pain?
Your answer is yes, but alas you
are wrong, so very wrong
I owe you nothing and that is
forever a fact
I owe you not my shattering heart
for you to devour
I owe you not my optimism for you
to breath hatred upon
I owe you not my wisdom for you to
let it fall on deaf ears
You don't deserve me but I would be
selfish not to let you have...

Room for Happiness
Eyes shut as I grit my teeth
Heated breath his my face mixed
with the taste of mint and his
own flavor
Lips parted I take small breaths
and slowly open my eyes
Mouths silent as eyes linger
over flesh and bone
Dare I say that I like how it feels
Wanting to stop crosses my mind
and then emotions sink in their claws
But then......silence.
Earth shattering silent
Pearly white devils come into view
showing their satisfaction but still no
sound
My eyes blink slowly and yet I don't react
Body. Vessel. Tomb now...
