POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I hope you enjoy this, because I can't do anything else.
The Road Again
Buddy Jack sitting on the moving thing, big noise and the clattering bang. A train rolls steady and heavy is the smoke. Flapping tents in the wind, the big top going to another town. The dream sellers at it again. Children asleep, making wishes in the afterthought of day, while steady below a pool of nightmares and despair rest just beneath the surface, waiting.
A bad dream was all it was, and I woke not being able to shake it. Too much at stake, too real and personal. Grey skies and the rain fell down like tears. A clam and sad day, driving down old and once familiar roads. You...

Waiting
I waited for her for years, and
in the dewy dream drops of night-
I watched for her shadow to appear.
It never did, so I just keep waiting-
Still...

Just listen
It was just time to be sad-
Time to stop reading the words
and just look at the pictures.
I closed my eyes and just listened-
To the sounds of the house, the faint
rush of air passing through the vents.
The rattle of traffic outside on the road-
The sound of my breath leaving my body,
and then returning to me like an old friend.
Time to stop reading the words
and just look at the pictures.
I closed my eyes and just listened-
To the sounds of the house, the faint
rush of air passing through the vents.
The rattle of traffic outside on the road-
The sound of my breath leaving my body,
and then returning to me like an old friend.

Bathroom walls
Bathroom wall writing
A revolution of the mind
Bloodsoaked poetry.
Jack off fruit flies in
a rotting pumpkin smile
with crusty seamen jiz.
Hard cock and balls
Ally way puppet show-
Smeared makeup.

Strip Club
I went to a strip club a few nights past
and watched women dance naked while
men threw money at them.
I danced with women for
money; to look at, to speak to,
to touch.
A ritual of midnight sadness,
of female energy exploited-
By thirsty vampires.

End of the world
End of the world
I looked out the window
and saw it coming.
The thought occurred to me-
to go run and hide in
the basement.
I walked outside
into the street and
looked up at
the sky.

Stop
Stop living in the world
of good and evil, right or
wrong. Black & White.
It's not real, only an illusion-
Just breath, in and out,
look around you. See without
labels, see what a thing is-
right now in this moment.
The whole world wants
to show you something.
Stop. Look. Listen.

O'clock
Time, oh that boss
clock growls all
night
While I'm trying
to be sleeping
One eye...
Always open to
the tick tick tock
of seconds.

Night sky
Midnight Lady
Your charms call
down from the stary
sky to me
I feel the cool kiss
of your heavens,
and it makes
me wish,

What's left
Sometimes we're left
with the continuing echos
of past decisions
A vibration that never fails
to remind you of what
you've done.

Bluebird
When you see a bluebird
among the trees
Then you get it,
the reason...
for any of it!
Everythings explained.
