Poet Introduction
"Jaded? No … Death Wish? Maybe … Sharp Tongue? Definitely … Must tread on me at own risk!"
Serial Killers
This fear of mine has developed throughout
time, progressively consuming me, locked
within my mind,,,
Serial killers you see, have a propensity
to haunt what should be fond lifetime memories,,,
A peaceful walk alone in the park, perhaps
to find a suitor will never be, for all I
see are visions of the chivalrous Ted Bundy,,,
A relaxing hot bath in my epoch will forever
be nigh, thanks to my knowledge of Countess
Elizabeth Bathory and John George Haigh,,,
The form of baths they take and offer ought
to make anyone’s stomach churn and...

The Darkess Of Solitude
The Darkness of solitude has taken
him captive, as a chain of visions
overcome his memory,,,
He sits most days wondering how
he got this far,,,
Will he ever look at things any new way,,,
The tendrils of his mind awaken,
intertwining fact with fiction, along
with a hint of delight, shadowed by a
trace of horror,,,
How many morrows to come before
this darkness of solitude for him will be done,,,
Eradication of this plague must occur
for some quality of life to perdure,,,
Alas a radiant light emerges as an apparition,...

I Will Find You
My head laying on the softest pillow,
will never liken to my head resting
on your chest, your heart beating
throughout my mind is the sweetest
resonance,,,
The touch of your hand against
mine will forever stay behind,,,
I wake daily, my nostrils filled
with your scent, my mouth watering,
longing for the taste of
your flesh once again, I ache for
you my love,,,
I feel the warmth of your energy
radiating to me, yet we’re apart,,,
Memories of you will visit me daily,
until my time here is through,,,

Affinity
My love, I feel you in the rain, in the warmth
of the sun, caressing my body with every drop
and ray, feelings so decadent and divine
Our encounter in this life is what our souls
longed for, years beyond our own recall
How and why it was prolonged will never be a
question, it was in essence our souls destiny
The moment we touched, our souls put the last
touches on our existence
of the sun, caressing my body with every drop
and ray, feelings so decadent and divine

Analyze This
This tunnel of psychological
delusion,I created for myself I’m told;
and perhaps I have?
Appearing broken to certain others,,,
Get treatment here, go there, do this,
no do that,,,
Never living up to their standards and
ideals,,,
Who I am, is never good enough for this
‘cliquey’ breed,,,
Yet I’m delighted and comfortable with
who I am…
Are there others like me someplace,
Ones that comprehend and don’t crave to
transform the real me within,,,
Ones that aren’t out to analyze my every
deed or resolution, ...

Cosmetic Mutilation
Cosmetic death and
mutilation are on the rise,,,
The concentration of a vast amount of our
population,,,
Surgeons wielding stainless weapons; drenched
in blood legally,,,
Doing it all to make a buck, so they can live
in hilltop mansions, drive so called fine cars,
and lets not forget flying on private jets to
their next murderous training convention or
vacation paradise,,,
Don't fall victim to societies propaganda
and so called rules,,,
Your true beauty is within, let your exterior
naturally shine by embracing the real you...

Am I Hearing You Correctly?
Am I hearing you correctly, or am I hearing what my heart needs or wants to hear?[b]
Did I hear you correctly, when you said
that I was the one you had looked for all your life?
Did I hear you correctly, when you
said I was to good to be true?
Did I hear you correctly, when you
said you now believed in love at first sight?
Did I hear you correctly, when you
said that I was a beautiful person?
Did I hear you correctly, when you
said that being with me and holding
me felt so natural?
Did I hear you correctly,...

Oh My Sweet
Oh my sweet, how it felt to be in
your arms all night...
Our Bodies cradling one another,
our hearts beating in perfect sync...
If I became restless, you tucked me
back in, close to your soul's warmth...
Oh my sweet how it felt when our lips
first met, so sweet your lips were to mine...
Oh my sweet how it felt when your hands
caressed my body so simple yet so divine...
Oh my sweet how it felt...
your arms all night...
Our Bodies cradling one another,
our hearts beating in perfect sync...
If I became restless, you tucked me
back in, close to your soul's warmth...
Oh my sweet how it felt when our lips

caressed my body so simple yet so divine...

Personal Hell
Hickory Dickory Dock,,,
Time has run out of this clock,,,
What will you do now,,,
Find a new key to unlock yet
another sinister spell,,,
Unsuspecting victims all around,,,
Ones you enjoy leaving on the ground,,,
Look in the mirror and there
you'll find, or maybe you won't,,,
Reality is to much to bear,,,
There is a world out there,,,
People waiting, to love you, for you,,,
Mountains waiting to be explored,,,
Trails and paths yet to be ventured,,,
Locked in your personal hell is
where you choose to stay,,,
