They
They ponder
while we ponder
They examine
while we examine
They watch
while we watch
Never seen but
always can be seen
They experiment
flashing lights
from Cape Town around to Florida
laughing at the foiled foil hats
The sane now insane
the abducted abandoned
the whistle blowers breathless
while others laugh
Laughing hard
laughing loud
ignoring their big black cloud
They do not exist some say
where are they? others ask
Do not taunt them the wise...

dancing away
with a stapled smile
no talking
flawlessly floating

dancing throughout the night
lively eyes and a deathly stare
such a shame her necklace

Lets be real hyperreal
An inability to distinguish fact from fiction
the technical term for hyperreality
although this hardly scratches the surface
An unwillingness to distinguish fact from fiction
think about it
dead end job
dead end relationships
simply put dead end
or just dead
except when a monitor lights the way
No contact needed
only a screen to feed it
"it"
1's and 0's make us gay
why wait for another stupid holiday
A blurred way to distinguish fact from fiction
the fine line ever finer
the alterations ever minor...

Dear world
Dearest world
My one true home
there are a few issues to speak about
First off stop bickering about the fucking future
nobody can predict it
nobody else knows better
so please stop asking the question
where do you see yourself in 5 years?
my answer is
hopefully alive
Secondly stop being so glass half full
being realistic is not negative
take beer for example
nobody says its half full
nor a tank of fuel
nor gas
if people want to end their lives
let them
charge a fucking fee if you must
just make sure...

A lovely picnic outing
Charcoal
check
Kids
playing tag check
Knife sharpened
check
Everybody hungry
check
meat
checkmate
A cold winters morning
with harsh wind
and even harsher cold
won't affect this family
all young and bold
Becky in a bikini
dad in shorts and shorts
mom in a polka dot dress
and the kids in summer clothes
Cooking away their mouthwatering meat
the kind that needs no butcher
but needs butchering
Snap
crack
giggle
tenderized meat
juicy and bloody
"Yaaaaay"

A boy walks into room
A boy walks into a room
four walls
four colors
red
green
blue
and black
On each wall is a girl
one with black shoes and her feet in them
one with a green hat and the head on a desk
one with blue gloves and her hands in them lying on the floor
and one with black clothes and a body in them
but-
no feet
no hands
and no head
Each night a different person appears
at the door wearing a different color
this time only a violet flower
but-this one is alive
the only one to survive ...

Wonderful beards
The notion that only biker gangs,french directors,wizards,professors,big men,women in freak shows,ugly rugby players,anyone Afrikaans, British members of parliament and bearded truck pullers is absurd. Anyone willing to wait patiently to have one has earned the right. This is somewhat done to avoid shaving as razors are torture devices blazing across the contours with a furious vengeance of hatred. Blood is of spilled between the warfare of stubborn hairs and imperialist razor blades.
To avoid such a battle between such formidable foes. A treaty is signed by the face bear to shave...

More than one way to skin a man
Hi everybody
Audience" Hi doctor Ed"
In today's show we'll show you how to skin pesky humans alive
ever had corpses you needed to skin son
boy "Always it's why the neighbors homes are so expensive"
Oh do not worry son we have all been there-right everybody
Audience "right"
Today have five ways of skinning the corpse
first of all you'll need a live human
Say hi to the lovely people Alice in lovely chains
Alice "hi everybody"
Clapping and screaming audience "hi Alice"
She tried to stop this show...

What the f**k to believe
Theories such as:
Modernism
Post-modernism
Feminism 1st,2nd and 3rd wave
Trans humanism
Hyper reality
Existentialism
Acculturation
Queer
...but wait there's more
Please note:
the above academic timely terms
never mentioned any religion
(other than mentioning atheists)
(Trying to spell these fucking words are becoming a nightmare
see it's tough being smart ha...hahaha)
Anywhore-where was I?
there is a point to this madness anyway
Way!
Let's start there
Which way do we...

My secret
This is frankly my most honest poem to date. It follows no structure or style.Think of this less as a poem and more of a confession. In fact do it with all of my work. Did you honestly think that my poems were poems? My words are my mirror. They reveal my fucked up state. I am simply put fucked.
In short my secret is I am no good at writing. What I write is more of a cluster of jumbled up thoughts.Jumbled up thoughts that i'm thrilled to death about. I can't get very technical with my work. All I really have are unique topics.
Now where is that bloody rock for me to crawl...
