a vocal fried girl, and an angry man
Sticky gloo
the sperm to her womb
to separate the lobes of
father and son,
the hook and the handle
dismantled gun
and burning candle.
Empty threats of full bodied slams,
the threadbare sheets
and silence of the blinds.
Blood beads at an inescapable boarder
the maternity dress she ordered,
consecrated for her,
an undressing of a previous quarter.
the sperm to her womb

father and son,

and burning candle.
Empty threats of full bodied slams,

and silence of the blinds.
Blood beads at an inescapable boarder

A nation of how many secrets?!
I hope your dream rots quicker than the milk you store in pots.
stupid girl s(t)uck
with only a mouth to offer fuck;
stupid girl wants more.
Crawling the bathroom floor
doesn’t get much more pathetic.
So, henna tattoo weddings are in!
Which shade of blonde is it again? -
that you front, or lay down as law?
Biblically worshipping your gluttony and flaying the cows raw!

spell for a person named lost
I love that you're seeable in normalcy.
In every patterned shirt walking through the gas station and out for a beer. In every scruff of a lanky cat, bruised from the childhood abuse. And you will come to love me in all my riddlery. And you will come. And you will come. I am your lighthouse and you, my weary traveler.

Decan'twaiter
My creativity is a blinding light in the Play-Doh cave allegory I’m living. The monkeys still haven’t figured it out, stare droll at the wall, all of their lives spent drooling, too difficult to wipe it away.
My advices poke at dense fat, undergrowth, I can believe it’s not butter. So hollow a gong beat do my words fall at my feet. There’s nothing like familiarity to strike a razor harp, over kneaded and undervalued.
A sweater to stifle the sweeter alternative, stylized standoffs represent sorrow. Self-loathing will do that to you. Rip your wings off and scream that you...

Tell Lie Vision
My mother, my father,
consumer daughter;
bed the telly,
see the rise, the fall.
Bi channel polarity, curious
syndrome,
slipped and worthless,
dripped and wordless.
Pressed rose in sellebrity slander;
undressed pander,
east coast paneer.
Drop the curtains,
only twitch them,
you're not safe;
consume.
You're not healthy,
consumate the groom and bridled
pony, slap faster-
static behind my eyes.
Breathe to me,
breathe [i]for[i] me.
Take my hands to grab,
and mouth to speak
your...

Burning
Your name on paper,
my delicate strokes
hold you high.
Not an obsession,
but pure certainty;
I already have you.
my delicate strokes
hold you high.
Not an obsession,

Loa...ding!
Load of my head
get out of it
and into me.
Let me create you,
Only sensation as you
Arrive into my world.
load the game, I pull and pluck
you're my helpless little fuck,
sweetly stubbled and sorely stuck.

Fleeting Sleet Slicks the Driveway
I watch the movie of your life, so poisoned and indisposed. Old and tight and ready to burst, the swing set push off lands in proof of concept verbal agreements, and past due bills.
"Slave heart, save face, and stop while the bleeding has slowed!!"
I'm screaming at the tv, this can't be the end!
You meet my eyes through the glass, and I memorize the emotion of breaking beaten horses, that don't get back up. I think I can change the channel now.

fingerless gloves discarded
A tissue falls to the floor
my legs are numb,
tangled in string knots and
pinned in ink stains,
more than wandering thought trains,
the steam opens pores, stay cold to close them, pseudoscience pneumonia will stop your lungs, the scarred issues hang loose outside the body, burned to ash, eaten by greedy fingerfuls.
Just another metaphor you won't understand, it's all that I can cut, bleed, and pour out, this emptiness runs me dry, I lost the only friend I had getting high, the sandpaper kisses rub the hair off my skin. I'm eaten within, maggots and...

Cister Blister I'll always Miss Her
His hand feeds a dog that doesn't know to look anywhere else. You were taken. An advantage over you was stolen, your innocence, your happiness, traded for lesbian man penis. Sick and dying and polluting your womb, he gouges with shepard hook and demon claw, room for him in you.
A boxing ring I dream of creating, veritable in structure, reality bleeds on the webpage. I'll tell him when and where to meet me, so I can meat him, and leave sour curdled chunks behind. separate yourself from the enemy, this stocker is not your holme. You need to watch as I disect and dismember this puny...

Floating Through a Dim Corridor
Swing my legs
powerlifting kegs of powder;
double downer
big frown for dinner.
Eating feelings won't make your
egg whites thinner, wetter.
Crisis painting,
pallet 'wack it' splatter;
sink stained jacket
made to flatter.

Chinese Takeaway
dirty lessons
in egg and grease,
smeary like baby oil,
slippery as crab with a "k"
underdressed meats,
mystique mister,
out of place at mosque.
lemon tang zests the
water paddy fields,
pluck and swim to harvest,
floaties and waders
address the complaint list.
