SILENT SCREAMS
SILENT SCREAMS
One single stroke
of the saw blade made
across your ethereal throat
Sensual serrated serenades
spill out in silent compliant cascades
of carefully crafted crimson waterfalls
from a mutually mute acute
mingling of the murderer and the murdered
in a symphony of silent violent violin strings
singing to nothing
with calls never heard

singing to nothing

BROWN EYES
It sounds like she might be screaming at me
instead of being psycollogically scorned by society
sounds of lonely tales twirl in a chance within a dance
coming up to me once more
with a blonde ponytail like a whore
all I can see as she can't even talk
is a professional professor with white chalk
writing on a smitten chalk board tight
with the cock calculations written in white
and all I can see through all of her lies
is her looking up at me with those beautiful brown eyes
instead of being psycollogically scorned by society
sounds of lonely tales twirl in a chance within a dance
coming up to me once more
with a blonde ponytail like a whore
all I can see as she can't even talk
is a professional professor with white chalk
writing on a smitten chalk board tight
with the cock calculations written in white
and all I can see through all of her lies
is her looking up at me with those beautiful brown eyes

To Diane
1:10 AM (9 hours ago)
to Diane
Jane came by. I had a nice talk with her. She is a cool friend.
I'm O'K. Concerned about you, but I'm not worried. I know that you will be just fine.
The critters are fed, Chippette was wondering about you and I told her
that you would be back soon to talk to her on the little tree.
She said "but just for talkies, no petsies?"
we locked eyes for a moment as she telepathically explained that she was shy towards human contact.
and proceeded to nibble on a sunflower seed, staring at me with concern for...

Everything is fuzzy in the distant horizon
but maybe it should be that way with blind eyes on........
the only glasses I need are my sunglasses
not to look cool or to look bad-ass or help my eyesight
I just can't stand the light
Reality seems to be a recurring theme
which constantly contradicts itself
I'm not here to tell you what is real
there are plenty of chemicals available for that
just sit your ass of thought down tight for the mustard gas of insight
I never said that there was a god
What it is is...

BLACK AND WHITE
BLACK AND WHITE
Truly I recall the eternal fall
our hands clenched tight within the light
with darkness melding within the white
skin akin to beginning sin held tight
I am darkness and you are light
What we hold within is what is right

I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS
I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS
They said I didn't know I was dead
and that all I feel and think that is real
is a delusional illusion within my sleeping head
reaping deeper conclusions, forever, never said
Apparently, I died inside, a while back
from a fatal fall with a broken back
or a heart attack induced during R.E.M.
while life, seduced, went on for them....
Suffering repercussions of forgotten concussions
legions of lesions laid out for discussions
churning ashes of thought taught to the members
who turned out to be burnt...

FACE PAINT
No complaints with ladies wearing daily face paints
to hide their flaws from jaws swearing that they aren't saints
just a humble enhancement for the girl next door
a must for rumbling enchantments for the whirling whore
looking younger in a swarm if you happen to be older
bolder if shy, and seeming warm if you're colder
or seemingly older if you're a gossiping blossoming teen
..............or anyone anywhere lying inbetween.....................
some women and men like their soul seen from afar
swimming and seemingly dreaming of who they are ...

FOREVER FORGOTTEN
I can't remember what I said
unspoken broken token spying in my head
truly awoken from the undying undead
New worlds hurling curled turds of words
with a shout tossed out in a caustic fallout
for the cost of an acoustic call out----
-------------Brought out-------------
within the eye of a hurricane of pain
that will never fade within the stain of the sane
-severed words bought-
-....and sold....-
-forever forgotten-
-----and never told----

POSSIBLE BEGINNING (collaboration with ARCHETYPE23 and BLACKWOLF)
In Some Moment Betwixt And Between
Where Some Words Could Not Be Seen
There Is A Place Where They All Convene
Share The Scene While Poets Still Dream
Drink Caffeine , Talk Obscene , Smoke Nicotine ,
Writing Verses Unforeseen , Literary Libertines ,
Feeling A Little Bad Ass And A Lotta Mean
There's a place they all found deep underground
where displaced faces deal aces of sound
in free space with a case for the next round
