POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
You don't need to know me. You'll find out enough through my poetry.
The Psalms, the Proverbs
I feel like I am this great immortal being,
Seeing the world as it is.
The trees, the beauty, the violence, the nudity…
Another Holden Caulfield, a hero to wield,
A man of morals with a titanium shield.
Somehow I feel I am none of this.
Merely a man, merely a boy,
Merely someone who ponders on the living and the afterlife.
I am nothing else. They treat me as one of them.
I am a lingering jellyfish, with a contemporary view
And a tainted wish.
I hold these truths to be self evident.
All men are...

Cakes and Blood, Stakes and Mud
I am what I am.
A man here stands.
I am contempt with ugliness,
I am immature. I am bait,
I am a lure. I will wait.
This is a statement, only.
I have these thoughts running
Through my head, sprinting instead.
I will watch her, I will gaze. I will
Not stalk, I am not fazed. She
Smells like perfume, like
On the cool afternoons of
Dreary autumns, where I sat
At the bottom of a weeping willow
And rested on the grass like a pillow.
I was alone, I am always alone.
Throw stones, I will catch them,
Hurt me, I will take it, beat me,...

Cardinal Grudge
Shakespearian love, H.P. Lovecraft tales,
Betrayal and murder, discretion fails.
A crush is only mildly interesting,
Masturbation is no better than digesting.
Literature is comical, philosophy
And the astronomical…well, let’s
Just say they’re a joke. Provoke and pester,
Shady characters with identities worse than
Molesters.
Paint fading on the trailer,
Get her in the back, nail her.
Drag the body behind the grass,
Cut it up with shards of glass.
Society is crumbling, this president
Is stumbling over his rotting liberal
White...

Frog
Cling on, a little longer.
At least until you fall off.
Keep plugging, don’t stop.
Until you know you’ve had enough.
Climb your walls, take your falls,
Reach up and grab that hand,
So it can let you go. The chasms
Below offer more comfort than
Those you trust. You will rust
Alone. This is your new home.
Welcome to solitude. Throw away
The beatitudes, carry the guilt like
A brood. Hide in the caves,
Starve on the craves, build a cross,
Walk the road. Curl up and get
Stoned.

Excercise
I shit bread and piss wine.
I am a holy martyr divine.
I am only muscle and spine.
I am every inch a fucking man,
Every inch raw strength.
I will remain where I stand,
Show you my true length.
Crucify me, nail me to the wood.
Kill me, stab me, you know you should.
I’m every inch raw power.
I will thrash you, I will devour.
Beat you to the floor,
Give you anger and gore.
I am ahead of you on so many levels,
Says the Devil.
I will lie to you and hurt you,
Cut you and whip you.
I will shoot and hit you.
Blow off...

Harrowing. Heroin.
Inject, digest. Incest,
Molest. Jump to,
Leap out, certain
Feelings to do without.
All in all, just another
Brick in the wall. Fall,
Behemoth, wretch the
Ground for worms while
You’re there. Stare at the soil,
Coil up like a snake and bite
The air, mindlessly, while
The world curls up to
Sleep.
Seep out, the plasma drains
Your blood, mere feelings
To do without. Anemic,
Contorted. Bulimic,
Retarded. Restarted,
Cold-hearted. All in
All, just another brick
In the wall. Tall trees,...
