POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I've been writing poetry every since I could write. It's a passion, a love, and a joy. For me it's easier to express things with poetry than with spoken words.
Monkeys
Laughing monkeys sit on the vine;
Waiting to sip Heaven’s wine.
Telling stories of long ago.
Whispering secrets only they know.
The wind chants in their ears,
And their laughter fills with tears.
They begin to dance on limbs of gold;
With movements fluid and controlled.
Ancient monkeys of Earth and air;
Seeking the key of a love affair.
Their blood speaks of magic and lore;
Bringing peace in time of war.
They protect the spirits of human way;
Keeping the secrets of yesterday.

Lost
The cross lies delicately on burning flesh.
Smoldering and melting; turning to mesh.
Engulfing the sun in a single blow.
Blood soaking the world with an eerie glow.
The night comes alive in death’s embrace.
Welcoming the world in fallen grace.
Zombies roam without much need.
Always searching; wanting to feed.
Rancid smells of puke and guts combine.
As evil beasts blur and entwine.
Jagged thorns unleash the pain.
The dead walk with nothing to gain.
Hanging there like a leaf.
Everyone stares in disbelief.
They panic and die with just a...

My Love
You're my world, my rock, my light.
You're everything to me.
My heart aches for you.
My soul yearns for yours.
Without you I am nothing,
But with you I am complete.
You are my sunny day...
You are my winter snow.
I promise my forever...
I promise my love to you!

Weep
Blurred visions fill the frame of confusion;
As pots of melted fire overflows.
Dreams dance around in thoughts,
And ancient realms swallow the bitter afterglow.
Dropped emotions rain upon the mind with ashes of night.
The unknown battles of here and there torture the ever-growing seeds of redemption.
The eye of deception glares into the soul,
And the taste of rum and sin hits the tongue.
Memories prance about taunting our very existence.
Little drops of darkness splashes onto the canvas of light;
As the hollow emptiness of death overwhelms the senses....
As pots of melted fire overflows.
Dreams dance around in thoughts,
And ancient realms swallow the bitter afterglow.
Dropped emotions rain upon the mind with ashes of night.
The unknown battles of here and there torture the ever-growing seeds of redemption.
The eye of deception glares into the soul,
And the taste of rum and sin hits the tongue.
Memories prance about taunting our very existence.
Little drops of darkness splashes onto the canvas of light;
As the hollow emptiness of death overwhelms the senses....

Forgot in Time
Lies and deceit.
Cover me up.
Feeling incomplete.
Fill the cup.
Dreams unfold.
Nothings told.
Give me a bone.
Never shone.
Secrets said.
Now all is dead.
Where's my friend?
Never to mend.
Heart shattered.
Body battered.
Left unsettled.
You mettled.
Down with emotion.
No love potion.
Forgotten and cold.
Souls never told.
Left alone.
Never shone.

Faded and Forsaken
Let the frost tear at my skin like bloodthirsty maggots.
Let the spinal fluid drown me like a vampire's dinner.
Forgotten and lost in this world of insanity.
Love doesn't exist in a universe with inhumanity.
Let the bones crumble inside me like ashes of death.
Let the wind crush my soul like hexes of hellish demons.
Why doesn't anything last in this world of hate?
Where's the compassion twirled with miseries fate?
Let the ice explode my heart like organ hungry zombies.
Let the water melt my flesh like lava's ravenous heat.
No...

Chaotic Insanity
I’ve been told I’m paranoid,
Schizophrenic and destroyed!
Run away into delusions;
Vast sea of illusions.
Come take me away.
Take me today!
To many conspiracies…
Faded in memories.
Do you see my vices?
Mixed with rum entices.
Crazy and insane.
Chaotic embers rain.
Schizophrenic; paranoid;
Blood and ice; seemingly enjoyed.
Falling snow of my demise.
Sit and listen to the wise.
Selfish, mean, and cruel!
Nice, kind, and cool!
One by day,
Another by night.
I go away…
Soon take flight!
Dancing nymphs on dragons...
Schizophrenic and destroyed!
Run away into delusions;
Vast sea of illusions.
Come take me away.
Take me today!
To many conspiracies…
Faded in memories.

Fall Down
I scream, you scream;
We all fall down!
What’s in my dream?
Twist, twist the dolly’s head around.
Eyes hollow like shallow graves.
They laugh mocking you and I.
You know we have it made….
Oh! Please don’t cry…
The sane will fade…
Then it will be just us.
Dance with me;
Around we go.
Ha ha! Come join the dead!
Soon night will crawl,
With fiends wanting fed!
I scream, you scream;
You fall down!
Demented as the scorpions sting.
Wicked laughing of the black.
If you listen you can hear the siren sing….
Listen, listen...
We all fall down!
What’s in my dream?
Twist, twist the dolly’s head around.
Eyes hollow like shallow graves.
They laugh mocking you and I.
You know we have it made….
Oh! Please don’t cry…

Ha ha! Come join the dead!

Echo of a Memory
Hanging dead on the echo of a memory;
The bloody hearts beat once again with sorrow.
Faded thoughts sever the mind for eternity;
While death hangs heavy over tomorrow.
Rejoicing blackbirds sing a song of pain,
And the snakes of hell crawl from their holes.
The cawing of ravens sickens the sane;
As little bits of space rains down souls.
Rancid thoughts lay deceased at the steps of hell;
And the crimson sea reaches for humanity.
Forgot in time everything fell;
While darkness crept up to meet insanity.
I was awaken by the scream of a broken dream....
The bloody hearts beat once again with sorrow.
Faded thoughts sever the mind for eternity;
While death hangs heavy over tomorrow.
Rejoicing blackbirds sing a song of pain,
And the snakes of hell crawl from their holes.
The cawing of ravens sickens the sane;
As little bits of space rains down souls.
Rancid thoughts lay deceased at the steps of hell;
And the crimson sea reaches for humanity.
Forgot in time everything fell;
While darkness crept up to meet insanity.
I was awaken by the scream of a broken dream....

On Bloody Hill
They fought on a bloody hill;
As the sun went down that day.
Leaving one dead…
She was a runaway.
She had ran into the darkness…
Never leaving any trace.
They found her lying there.
Tears still fresh on her face.

My Muse Needs CPR
My muse needs CPR.
I can't get her to leave the bar.
She's left me all alone.
Now poetry from me isn't shone.
My muse is drunk,
And I'm out of luck.
No inspiration, no poetry.
My muse just left me.
No longer does she care.
Nothing will she share.
My muse needs CPR,
But she won't get in the car.
Away my muse flew.
What am I to do?

Moons of Woe
Thou art greater then thy bitter spring;
Thy forth coming dost dance in thy ring.
Methinks night bequeathed love to thou heart.
Look to like in seeking thee to start.
How'd you woo thee?
Two moons doest thou see.
Befallen sick; remember not thou'st love?
Shoot thee again cupid but with bows above.
Swear thine maiden to thee breeze.
Out of the ashes of your last lest of long seize.
Two moons; of only one came to favour.
What say you, to thine own self savour?
Which sun of nighttime did minds eye pick?
Wait the gestures of pure love's...
