One Bloom
This tree withered
bare of it's leaves
no sun or water
has fed it's gnarled roots
which have fed from an abyss
of booze and pills
for an eternity now
a kudzu of pain
has all but choked the life from it
three days sober now
for a tree all but dead inside
from long neglect
has a single blossom
blooming proud and strong
atop it's highest branches
feeling stronger
like no wind or storm
can threaten to topple it again
it breathes a sigh of relief
the kudzu is slowly dying ...

Methadone Nightmares
Traveling down dark allies
in the early morning black
chasing that pink juice
off methadone for three years now
I still dream of my king
forever calling my name
the world still so raw
too bright for a soul
who lived in the shadows for thirteen years
twisting, turning, sweating in my bed
my demons mock me my dose before me
but this time I can't have it
because I came to the clinic naked
other times I get lost down streets I've never seen
asking other junkies the way there they just stare...

Sigh
A delicate breeze
my face caressed
toes in the sand
walking along the shore
collecting sea shells
my hurt long gone
feelings swirl
as the sea mist
kisses me gently
in love with the ocean
being a sacred realm
daughter of water
now sprinkled in light
the clouds have parted
darkness shadows me no more
feeling free and alive
I take a deep breath
and sigh in relief
depression behind me
the sea my home
a balm for my soul
my face caressed
toes in the sand
walking along the shore
collecting sea shells
my hurt long gone
feelings swirl
as the sea mist
kisses me gently
in love with the ocean
being a sacred realm
daughter of water
now sprinkled in light
the clouds have parted
darkness shadows me no more
feeling free and alive
I take a deep breath
and sigh in relief
depression behind me
the sea my home
a balm for my soul

Vixen
Our mother queen Vixen
was sent to the sixth dimension
when we were little children
in this society we were all empathic
communicating to each other telepathically
Our Father King Zedon
wished privacy with our mother Vixen
he said we needed a firmer hand
that our mother was too kind
and couldn't reprimand her children
We were taken to the dimension
of just men our Father Zedon
longing for us to understand
the lusts and needs of men
Still telepathically...

f**k It
Dimly lit eyes the spark that once shined
all but turned to dust
nothing now just two dank pieces of burned out
charcoal staring out at the world
losing my way on the road to nowhere
sip by sip hazy days
where I awake and drink long into the night
worrying that the man will come and take me away
for being a crazy bitch who talks to much while intoxicated
spilling my inner secrets
as I stumble on drunken legs
fear causing me to drink more
superstition choking me
if I don't put this...

Desert Lands
My beautiful lady
why have you deserted me?
all the colors spring from you
now my world is painted black
the clock is ticking backwards
without you in my life
a whirling vortex of pain
sucking me dry
you are my water
lovely one
come rain down on me
take me from the desert lands
I've been wandering in
no power nor punch mouth rusted shut
please open the door
that is now locked for me
take me in your arms
I feel you watching from afar
my soul aching for your touch
end this...

Your Alice Is Lonely
Your Alice
is lost in Wonderland
chasing white rabbits
falling further down the hole
I seek you
on this night
my Cheshire cat
though when
I think I see you
poof you're up in smoke
missing you tonight
I travel further
down the path
thinking you must be
partying with the
Mad Hatter tonight
I want to be
at that tea party
along side you
please pass me
the hookah
(Read by Carpe_Noctem my Cheshire Cat thank you so much I love...

My Plagued Heart
I feel sad today
alone and afraid
terrified of the future
walking in the ashes of my past
circling through my mind
mistakes I've made
like a scratched record
that keeps repeating
the same lyrics
the blues station
all day long every day
I beg the powers that be
play me a new tune
to dance to today
take me from the soot
wash me clean
in the river of contentment
take me to the shores of enlightenment
groaning within myself
I wish to smash that wrecked record
beat it...
alone and afraid

Eve's Rotten Apple
I've taken my knife
filleting my skin
bleeding for you on the page
I've exposed myself in public
then searched for a cloak
to cover my nakedness
though once it's out there
there is no covering for my shame
just the ugly truth
like a rotten apple plucked from
the tree full of worms
once eaten they take hold of your belly
make their way to your brain
taking hold like a parasite
wrapping around your cerebellum
enshrouding your every thought
I wish I could cover my raw thoughts
though...

Ecstasy (Carpe_Noctem -Crimsin Collab.)
This little white dove
sits on my palm,
ready to give my
serotonin receptors a blast
this warm feeling
passes my spine
feel the empathy
feel the music
pulsating rhythms rift
through my body
as the light show begins
seeing falling stars
streak their way past my vision
feeling so very beautiful
like i'm a goddess
the center of the universe
ahhh between my thighs
I feel you though you haven't touched me
double drop triple drop
my serotonin receptors plead ...

Nothing Compares To You
Why do I love you?
the enigma that alludes me
puzzles my mind
with oddly shaped words
that wrap around my intellect
fitting in all the right places
in life we wouldn't mesh
though I can dream
fantasize about you
slamming me with poetry
opening my inner sanctum
with your rough pen
riding me with angry yet delicate strokes
you will never notice me
I would gladly be the cigarette smoke
that stains your walls
the sheets below you
as you make love to another
tasting you second...
