POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I just write what's been on my mind and I will tap into certain feelings. I've basically dedicated my life to music. I just need to write more.
Miss Violin
this beautiful woman i see in my head
closing my eyes as i lie in bed
radiating a chilling breeze
nearly seeming like she might freeze
creating wind for the lust
her short white dress rises with gusts
as i view her from my sandbox pulling images ashore
the lights and colors begin to allure
while water ripples beneath her feet
the sound of her violin flows through the air
swirling out hypnotic colors of purple, green and blue
creating the perfect hue
her world is cosmic
erotic and wonderfully chaotic
my days feel...

The Muse
The muse
may come and go
leave you feeling worthless
with nowhere left to go
The blues
may soothe your soul
that sweet rock n roll
still has it's toll
Your life
will give and take
without much control
it comes and goes
The drugs
will give you what you want
then rip you apart
and steal your heart
Life will change you
for better or worse
it's not a curse
shit happens
may come and go
leave you feeling worthless
with nowhere left to go
The blues
may soothe your soul
that sweet rock n roll
still has it's toll
Your life
will give and take
without much control
it comes and goes
The drugs
will give you what you want
then rip you apart
and steal your heart
Life will change you
for better or worse
it's not a curse
shit happens

Lights
The sun shines bright
before the night lights
come on
We close our eyes
and the world says
so long
Dream your dreams
or live your dreams
because when you're gone
the world goes on
before the night lights
come on
We close our eyes
and the world says
so long
Dream your dreams
or live your dreams
because when you're gone
the world goes on

Old Times
Hovering a staggering level
remembering the days
you used to revel
Come on now, be blunt!
your past was shit
would a blunt really have helped today's want?
have you always been this stupid of a cunt?
Well, I mean . . . probably.
You, my mind's overlord, put on your favorite sweater
until you finally sweat
it won't become a threat
A slight sense of insecurity
mixed with a sense of misery
and impurity
Life isn't a breeze
I mean,
it can end in a miserable disease
What do you...

fin.
as the water rose
you took off your clothes
frozen from your head to your toes
you were over exposed
you crawled to bed
to rest your head
while the devil was up to bat
you forgot where you were at
it was a slow decay
and you were paying your debt
you were fading away
in a cold, cold sweat
you got deja vu
as your bones trembled
and you resembled
heroes before you
the skies turned red
doomsday had come
on a messy deathbed
you'd finally succumb
your lips turned blue ...

Lucy
Finding love in a sweet release
Feels so nice
A complete belief delete
You forget about the price
For it's pure paradise
Beyond the pipe of peace
Seeing swaying beats
Feeling beautiful heat
Chilling at home
With an LSD sheet
Acid straight to the dome
Such a sweet treat
Melt your brain
Release the pain
Add some Mary Jane
Your worries will drain
You'll finally reign
Pictures twirl
Glisten like pearl
Faces are beautiful
Voices acoustical
Walls swirl
And...

Life
Burned under the sun
Sweat dripped into his eyes
He was blinded by the light
Rotted by worldly lies
His life may have lost its shine
But remember, we all want something more sublime
Now, I've certainly been close to death
With time spent well
And time in hell
Time spent high
Most time just passed right by
There's no use in asking myself why.
She was a kind soul
With a dark side of the mind
Got lost into its endless hole
And left the world behind
She tried to hide
She ran far
And...

Gravy Train
All Aboard
through space and time
leave another day behind
streaks of white
they're oh so bright
i tell you,
everything will feel so right
psychedelia and bliss
you can have anything you wish
write out a list;
i insist
happily, the galaxies
you will see
there's always time
you just must find
a way to cross your mental lines
remove the pain with fantasy
stop the rain and you will see
this train is yours to be ...

Tonight
I sit here tonight
at 11:18
I'm feeling alright
it's the basic routine
I remember the days
when water crashed against the sand
when I'd completely lost my ways
eventually all I had was a car and these two hands
I'd left my guitars
I'd left my friends
and family behind
I felt they were unkind
but I was crazy
my world was so hazy
I hated myself
everyday that I'd pull through
another bout of pain would ensue
I never knew what to do
I ran...

Pain
brains full of led
every night you go to bed
it's all in your head
but the sheets are stained red
releasing the pain
clearing your brain
is something you need
or so it seems
drinking a bottle
or going full throttle
running away
achieving a new day
a needle in an arm
no need for alarm
you mean them no harm
we all belong on the funny farm
received a...

Gone
my head was in the clouds
but I never meant harm
I had to stay high
I was addicted to the charm
as things started to shine
the world fell apart
I didn't want to leave you alone
you were a piece of my heart
take me away
just one more time
I wish I could hear you moan
instead of writing this rhyme
I remember your first high
when you fell down
you always got up
and we would go to town
time has passed
I won't hear your voice
your soul still lingers
but you've made a choice
but I never meant harm
I had to stay high
I was addicted to the charm
as things started to shine
the world fell apart
I didn't want to leave you alone
you were a piece of my heart
take me away
just one more time
I wish I could hear you moan
instead of writing this rhyme
I remember your first high
when you fell down
you always got up
and we would go to town
time has passed
I won't hear your voice
your soul still lingers
but you've made a choice

Balance
look around you;
what do you see?
is it messy or is it clean?
does it matter?
anyways, this could all be a dream
is everything really as it seems?
is what you say really what you mean?
many hide their worries
but they're still hidden somewhere
lord knows, we can't sleep if nothing's wrong
so, people... they meditate
try to kill their demons, their hate
they say it feels great -- and it does
if done properly
a master will always need to remain a student
don't let go because you...
