POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Unfortunately, the world is what it is. There is only one of us. I don't play the games to gather a list of fools. I am genuine and don't stampede with the wandering herd. I am my own thinker. BS doesn't fit me.
Ragpickers
"Save the last dance for me..."
I give thee my decaying peeling flesh ripe
as the tuberose, heavy perfumery leaking
from the vulva neutralizing the miasmas,
foaming, saving it for the ragpickers, like
curdled semen dripping from an abalone's
shell, crawling out of my grave, four
minutes after death

Classic Felony
Whoring my lobotomy
full frontal cranium
with classic felony
"Tying me kangaroo down"
bleeding pork belly
hemorrhaging
twilight's Muscatel
sipping the tea goiter
from the gallbladder
in the larder

Oneness with God
Recycled wind chimes bamboo
with bell tones of blue
tranquil melody meditation
in nature's flute
like a waterfall calming
oneness with God

tranquil melody meditation
in nature's flute
like a waterfall calming
oneness with God

Lacquered Insanity
Twilight intimacy kiss awakening senses
shadows of lacquered insanity rising
infinite anesthesia censoring prophets
dripping drops of blood's aphrodisiac
in death's melancholia counting
doubloons on a phantom's chest

Tied Dyed in Prints
An echo listening to the silence of epiphany
revealing serenity in prints tied dyed green
and wind chimes harmonious melodies whispering
a symphony between soul and man, listening...
If I were a carpenter You were the lady"

Rorschach Zombie
Song of a rotting corpse in psychoanalysis
a narcissistic dreamer with an outburst of
mania with a cracked mind, hoosegow, decaying
antiquated parrot wanting a cracker with
a hideous impersonation of being human with
a leprous mask, stinking up the place but it's
your dime, listening to the song of a
rotting corpse

Eden's Web
Memories of seance in shadows scent
with a fragrance of Tabasco's mist
A clutch of breath inhaling
tasting the ecstasy of Eden's web
Of endless silhouettes conspiring
as darkness opens many doors
To be an obsidian butterfly
with a fragrance of Tabasco's mist

A clutch of breath inhaling
tasting the ecstasy of Eden's web
Of endless silhouettes conspiring
as darkness opens many doors
To be an obsidian butterfly
with a fragrance of Tabasco's mist

Adjosan
I've never forgotten our Sayonara memories
"How long has it been?" Several dreams ago
now I remember the spark in your eyes like
the coals in the Hibachi as you whispered
my name...アダージョサン, Adājosan

Silent Apothecary
A world of chaos and obsidian blue caressing a hush
of decadent blush inhaling a melody so tender and rare
With an essence of intoxication in a tapestry of scented
leaves where the roses awaken so fragrant the mascara
In a pool of embrace a symphony of moments, a world
of chaos and obsidian blue decadent blush inhaling
Listening to the silence in the twilight apothecary holding
on to my sanity
of decadent blush inhaling a melody so tender and rare
With an essence of intoxication in a tapestry of scented
leaves where the roses awaken so fragrant the mascara
In a pool of embrace a symphony of moments, a world
of chaos and obsidian blue decadent blush inhaling
Listening to the silence in the twilight apothecary holding
on to my sanity

On My Hiney
Welcome to the pockmark of obscenity
a requiem for the posies slogging in
sloe gin from death's emporium
Resting on my hiney in the daffodils
with no anecdote for the guillotine's rope
buried on a slippery slope
Drifting off into my homily
"More dope, please"
sleeping soundly
Blossoming in shadows of obscurity
with Knick Knack Paddy Whack on my bones
eating at my rotting stone
a requiem for the posies slogging in
sloe gin from death's emporium
Resting on my hiney in the daffodils
with no anecdote for the guillotine's rope
buried on a slippery slope
Drifting off into my homily
"More dope, please"
sleeping soundly
Blossoming in shadows of obscurity
with Knick Knack Paddy Whack on my bones
eating at my rotting stone

Eye of Ums
Sleepless in my shoes
a tongue left undone
With the wicked eye of Ums
listening to ebb and flows
the riptides of my mind
Caressing a haunting shadow
a memory in my bed
with the wicked eye of Ums
a tongue left undone
With the wicked eye of Ums
listening to ebb and flows
the riptides of my mind
Caressing a haunting shadow
a memory in my bed
with the wicked eye of Ums

Chic and Hare
Of memories here and there, chic and hare
from the rocking chair in the depth of hypocrisy
sinking into obscurity seeking paths of prophesy
as the flowers in the garden meditate
rains bring showers through the water's-gate
yet the furies doom the grass and the shards
with the ink's imagination in a vision of dreams
of memories here and there, chic and hare
from the rocking chair in the depth of hypocrisy
sinking into obscurity seeking paths of prophesy
as the flowers in the garden meditate
rains bring showers through the water's-gate
yet the furies doom the grass and the shards
with the ink's imagination in a vision of dreams
of memories here and there, chic and hare
