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...

Stained Glass
A stained glassed window reflecting
all the facets of my feelings
the grey lead that weaves it all together
is a symbol of my guilt
holding tight to all the colors
and facets of my being
I don't know how to seperate
this collage of glass in need
of it's leaden holdings
i'm afraid without them
I would simply be shards of glass
broken on the floor
a mess to be swept under the carpet
never to be seen again
no longer shining in the sun
all the facets of my feelings
the grey lead that weaves it all together
is a symbol of my guilt
holding tight to all the colors
and facets of my being
I don't know how to seperate
this collage of glass in need
of it's leaden holdings
i'm afraid without them
I would simply be shards of glass
broken on the floor
a mess to be swept under the carpet
never to be seen again
no longer shining in the sun

Seal My Lips
I wish I could
seal up all the words
that have so carelessly
tumbled from my lips
gaze upon them in their trapped state
I wonder what they would look like
imagining a whirling black void
with tendrils still seeking to suck life
from the people I uttered them to
longing with all my heart
to take them back
I ask the heavens to
cast them in the sea of forgetfulness
where I no longer play the dark jester
with no laughs to be had
seal up all the words
that have so carelessly
tumbled from my lips
gaze upon them in their trapped state
I wonder what they would look like
imagining a whirling black void
with tendrils still seeking to suck life
from the people I uttered them to
longing with all my heart
to take them back
I ask the heavens to
cast them in the sea of forgetfulness
where I no longer play the dark jester
with no laughs to be had

Sipping From Rainbows
My mind is a blank page
like an eraser has
vanquished my thoughts
leaving behind dirty smudges
where the words used to be
I think a trickster
is at play
stealing the words
my lips wish to utter
sealing them before
they can tumble from my tounge
embracing my muse
making love to her
she has been ill used
i've pursued her as she alludes me
she is the trickster
the one who put blinders
on my mind
she tells me I need to love again
knowing i've been lonely ...

Maniac / Psychotic
I feel
as if i'm
on a chain
insane biting at
the bit
medically restrained
I miss the magic
of my lunacy
being a goddess
one day
talking to
the dead the next
flying in space
at the speed of light
man I miss those planes
planes of existence
I could hardly describe
the thrill of it
writing and painting
like a woman possessed
fuck these medical tethers
I want to hear the t.v
talking to me
the radio singing just for me
the devil...

Ashes
Do you ever feel your thoughts so dry
that they roll off your tounge like gravel
as if dust motes were stuck in your throat
reaching to your belly which is uneasy and queasy
rolling like the seven seas
reaching for anything to anchor yourself
to bring you back to reality
making some sense to your backwards thinking
to put you topside again
i'm reaching for heaven but only finding hell
my raspy voice cutting edges in the paper
i'm inkinking on
my blood spilling
stomach bile filling pages
I wish I had something...
that they roll off your tounge like gravel
as if dust motes were stuck in your throat
reaching to your belly which is uneasy and queasy
rolling like the seven seas

to bring you back to reality
making some sense to your backwards thinking
to put you topside again
i'm reaching for heaven but only finding hell
my raspy voice cutting edges in the paper
i'm inkinking on

stomach bile filling pages

Oceans Of Whiskey
Today the whiskey dried up
fuck I feel so dry inside
drinking beers to fill me
pissing every twenty minutes
without getting off all filler
no climax
it didn't take me to that place of magic
where my brain is turned to mush
forgetting for a moment the death march i'm on
on a good whiskey day I get pissed
three sheets to the wind
crawling to my room
where I fall off the bed in the middle of the night
unlucky I didn't bash my skull and end it all ...

Have You Tasted Hell?
Hanging onto the chair
as the world slips sideways and my words
S
l
u
r
r
r
falling forever falling
where demons can't grasp
cloying for a soul that
is gorging on the vomit
from the foulest of natures
injected in my soul
a soul raped
defiled engorged by hell
engulfed in flames
withering, dying
crying out in pain
What does hell mean to you?
I've gotten a huge taste
it is like being sucked from
the inside out it tastes of...

To Be A Junkie
I've walked the streets for money
trembling in the cold
awaiting to enter the warmth of a car
I had a heart for them all
needing a little loving
I disgusted myself awaiting my next fix
the blissful warmth of the numb as the blood registers
and i'm taken all the way down on that elevator of relief
sweet oblivion taking me in it's arms and for the moment
I can see beauty in the most sinister of faces
the streets are harsh when the dragon is your master
beaten into...

The Ethernet
Do you ever feel the vibes of those online?
Here on Dup and the ethernet reaching out
with a vine like grasp
either tickling your fancy or spiking you in agony
some just send out indifference
I can't respond to these types
strong emotion is what it takes to arrouse my senses
dark, light, and erotic as long as I feel it in my bones
some leave lavendar kisses that make the angles weep
others trace welts on my tender ass from the truth they speak
some are fanged monsters with pretty words
luring you into their trap ...

The Beast
I'm in pain can anyone feel my tendrils
crawling across the page in ink
everyday I fall just to get back up again
a fighter going ten rounds against the beast
the great dragon of old
his spiked tail
impaling me holding my innards
in my hands I suture the wounds
inficted by the master of destruction
who longs to suck me dry
from the inside out
left with nothing but a shell
no spirit left to speak of
inked in my blood
I speak in defiance to the powers that be
you won't engulf me
eat me alive...

I Shall Be Released
Swimming in the cesspool of my own destruction
I choke down my liquor my body rebelling
a dying liver in protest
praying I keep it down hands shaking
precious booze spilling on the carpet
self hatred at the heart of things
a cocktail of benzos and whiskey
to start the day with
legs buckling I stoically
tell myself man up straighten up
pushing my body to the limit
of what it can endure
methadone used to be my savior
God bless Hitler and his depraved mind ...
