Sylvia In A Dream
Sylvia in a dream
Please, please come back to me
Oh, I need your loving presence by my side
Sing the harmony to my melody
Upon my shoulder remedy, music linking soul to self
Hold my mind and with your help,
We shall rise below the depths of thought…oh serenity
You're just the girl with half a heart
Worlds apart and in the dark
You're fearing what the future holds,
But why can't you see?
The future holds me.
I see your face upon the moon,
Whose light determines all my moods
Reveal yourself and disarm me...
Please, please come back to me
Oh, I need your loving presence by my side
Sing the harmony to my melody
Upon my shoulder remedy, music linking soul to self
Hold my mind and with your help,
We shall rise below the depths of thought…oh serenity
You're just the girl with half a heart
Worlds apart and in the dark
You're fearing what the future holds,
But why can't you see?
The future holds me.
I see your face upon the moon,
Whose light determines all my moods
Reveal yourself and disarm me...

Geisteskrank
I
Down in a dive bar
Gin & Tonic
My lover and I held sticks and cued the rack
He was a little shy at first, must have been the laughing gas
But then again it was my first time
Hit it Allen
Don’t be shy, society’s advancing and soon their logy logic will catch up with our common sense
We’re both drunken pool sharks, you and I
Me the Acid Queen
You Paul Newman
The Hustler
In love with the town
Secure with the syntax
Calling the shots because we see the game as it unfolds
The BET memorializes Michael Jackson on...

Condiment Me Later
Hey mr. mustard man!
Are you a custard man to Sesame opening the show?
Lettuce relish the dressing rehearsal,
For what good is an empty plate, savor an empty gut.
A glass of brass, a few string beans, maybe some cello and Viola!
Yes that wood go down without a creak
Prob'ly a squeak but who shuts their mouth to smear our or guest rum?
Too mush to digest...Oh what a shroom to see our guests die.
Carrot Sticks!
I've seasoned many a puhctek who could'na ket their chup shut.
They mayonnaise well leaf the bowl and save us all from rotting....

Letting Go (Surrender)
The souls on my shoe are flapping
The band on my watch is loose
As I dry myself off with my own
sweaty shirt I wonder:
who will have me like this?
I’m a June-Bug
Crawl when I can fly
& more often than not
End up helpless on
My back
& forth
& back
& forth
Think I’ll have another cigar
Cheap cigar in one hand
Twix Bar ‘tween the fingers
of the other
They smell like
gram-cracker
No greater kick
Than lightin’ a cheap-ass
cigarillo
With a shit-ball ...

The Major Arcana
Make love to the High Priestess
While the Magician’s away
Watch as Death becomes her
What Lovers are we
Our Chariot awaits
We were meant for Judgment
The Moon is my baby
The Sun another’s
In a World in need
Of a Hierophant, soon
The Emperor will rise
His Temperance forthwith
The Tower inspires
A fallen Star hits
The Devil has Strength
Yet Justice prevail
The Fool carries water
To impress the Empress
A Hermit well met
On the wagon Wheel Of Fortune
Hang in there, Hangman

At Your Service
God may have given me the talent to write
But Satan provided the source material
You ‘gotta serve somebody’, sang Dylan
Lennon bit back, ‘serve yourself’
Praise Jesus!
If I say it, will I mean it
‘Cause your words seem pretty hollow
to me
Your actions on the other hand
(behind your back)
tell a different story
of unsavory truffles
placed haphazardly among Angel Food Cake
in a closed meeting outside of a church
Here we are all the same
Children of God
Out there we are just another bloke on the bus
along...

My Nana
Hem & haw, hummingbird
Hovering above the by & by
Nah, nah, nah boo boo
Sis boom bah
A kiss from my Nana
From the feeder to the fed
Sweet nectar in times of torpor
Metabolic rates reach Metaphysic states
Doughty demure Hermit she was
Drawing closer to The Closer
Becoming Emerald
in a moment of grace
on a bed of tranquility
surrounded by loved ones
minus me
a worker bee
registering this regret from a wallflower
I gave her a feather
And she cherished it
above all else
It wasn’t...

DARK POEM

Nature Walk
In the devil’s hour
I find myself
a dream-like wraith
stumbling through the nature walk
Spirits inflamed/ souls divi ded
The moment is writhe with conjuration
To whom do I call
in this God forsaken place?
At the crossroad
the question becomes rhetorical
the path rounds out
no going back now
I came here to make a deal
and I’ll be damned if I get short-changed
‘Inhibitions, Away With You!’
My dark desires cry out
fetter and yoked
for far too long
Dare I speak in to wards
call up on the depths ...

Coven Ant
In a brothel called The Jade Palace
Cundi The Cunt turns tricks
a Penny for your Flame
On the one hand, she has to make a living
On the other 17, she wishes she was dead
Sea, to lay with her is to enter into a coven
ant, one that if broken
leaves you sick in the head
and begging for more
Her favorite position
Jacob’s Ladder
is a Stairway to Heaven
and a Highway to Hell
The divine dancing with the profane
Absolution within a dream
Communion with The Void
She starts up top, Elohim on her lips
Whispers El in...
