Ride to the Mourning
Let death ride me
The black horse that I have become
Steer me to your garden
Galloping the way
Heavy on my hooves
Absorbing all the colors
Of the day
to a conical light
Shafted from below
Where the shadows
Run on the ceilings
With their long fingers
Pulling the life
As I ride
To the upside down sun
With its rays dripping
Nuclear bombs
The black horse that I have become
Steer me to your garden
Galloping the way
Heavy on my hooves
Absorbing all the colors
Of the day
to a conical light
Shafted from below
Where the shadows
Run on the ceilings
With their long fingers
Pulling the life
As I ride
To the upside down sun
With its rays dripping
Nuclear bombs

What Do I Want?
It has been a while since I asked myself
What do I want
Because I have been going on
Only wanting in the moment
Reacting to the world as it comes at me
And it showed, by asking this question
to myself
How dull my senses have become
How ignorant I have kept myself
How blind to my actions
That to consider with intent
What it is I want
Something that would benefit me
in a way that would allow for growth
That the feeling becomes frightening
Daunting
Even ugly
As if my personal Pandora was awoken
Sending chaos in my world...

Yes, But, Is Dinner Ready?
coming home from a hard day at work
one of the things I look forward that I like a lot
Is when she greets me a hug and kiss
And at the same time grabs my cock.

Umami
sweetness
Everything is always ok.
Pleases my every irritability
Agrees with all my thoughts
Reassures my insecurity
sourness
Cant seem to be satisfied
Offer her massages and gifts
Stress frowns and puckered faces
No thought can offer a lift
bitterness
What have you done for me
And the world owes me
Always getting the short end of the stick
Which is why you are not the payee
saltiness
She is capable and magnifying
The drama is palpable
Brings out each nuance ...

missing her
knowing a bridge approaches
our time is spent like a drunken slur
she will look at me in sadness
because I have been missing
she came to me like a falling star
in the nighttime strobing blur
i listened to the beats she sang
and in the silence I miss
i discovered my enraptured interest
of mind and words that are sure
as I stroked that flawless body
knowing i would be missing
our tryst was flighty and tangent
that bucked our senses pure
the feeling at the base of my heart
swelling in this poem for
i am afraid to...

Days of smoke and mirrors
day 1
Clean air sucks
Im going this way and that
Zig-zagging as I bounce
All I need is a soft puff
And this staccato breathing will go away
But I took the oath
I am honoring my better senses
Bringing into accord some idealistic persona
All around is the jitters
That buzz my brain as it withers
But no one knows
Cause I keep it close
While beneath the desk my foot is twittering
Not making a face while jittering
day 2
Curled in a ball in my brain
To escape the non-existent pain
In a roundabout of swaying...

Praying for Mantis
The clutter of voices
Surrounding me in alien tongue
Gazing at the praying mantis'
In search of a midnight snack
Only to get their heads ripped off by morning
What am I doing.
I don't feel like being around people
But home was too lonely.
A blowjob would be nice right now
And get my head pulled off
To take the edge off of this steam
It's too much work to talk nice
So I hold onto my beer like it was my dick
Gripping it hoping someone sees the obvious phallic gesture
They won't. And I don't care.

Tie-dye
Your days are long
And your nights are bright
I wrote you this song
To bring you light
For your gentle kiss
Touched by your soul
Sometimes I miss
When you play your role
Fold me in your arms
And scratch my back
Its there we do no harm
As we set our course on track
Your long black hair
Drapes my earth
In my valiant stare
To show you your worth
Today is always the day
And the blue sky above
Its hard for me to say
That its you I love
You do what you need
In your retort
To find your...

Opaque Rocket
Show me how
The moon is bright
When nothing in front of me has seen the light
When I open my eyes there is darkness in sight
This vision’s plight
Many years from now
As my days grow long
The music does not play my favorite song
The world has forgotten to remember my song
What is that song
The future is vaguely clear
It fails to show me why I am here
When my friends are no longer near
Have they heard of me
With the rising sun
Or am I destined to become a lonely one
Content with my vices in the shadowy fun
Before...
