writing is the process of releasing crazy from my head. Xxx
A belated letter to my mama
DEAR MAMA
Im sorry that it's been so long
Since I wrote a letter to you
I kept every card you ever sent
I hope you know that I missed you too
Im so sorry I haven't been around
I hope you knew that I wanted to
I wish I could have stayed in England
And spent so much more time with you
I remember every story
That you ever told to me
Seven sisters, matlocks Romeo
And the star above your chimney
You'd squeeze my hand and tell me
How much you loved my sweet grandad
I see two stars above me now
And I know you're no...
Im sorry that it's been so long

And spent so much more time with you

And the star above your chimney
You'd squeeze my hand and tell me

White picket holed trenches
Putting up fences
Four walled grave
Your face reminded him of his knuckles that time
Re-aligning stomachs
With bladders and baggy's
Swelling waters cushioning the baby drowning in floods of noir and tears
Salty seas dried
Crystallized
How much meth does it take to change a lightbulb?
Its a joke
Wolf ran out of puff so the pigs blew it down
Brown brick
Veins for trains
Moving mountains with a table spoon, hot knives and a folk in the road
"Should be feeding with the tools you've been...

ADOLESCENT OBSOLESCENT
Moribund grey turning pages,
saliva'd fingers tipped in guilded stains,
Ungrowing young disgracefully with a mouthful of soap and hands full of smoke.
Wide open spaces filled gaps between visits.
Obsolescence, trapped in a creased machine,
It's no longer obedient to me.
Losing names they say I chose.
Unaware heart breaker.
Neuron's selectively branded with memoirs of serotonin peaks.
I just don't know your face anymore.
Creak's like submerged vessel's holding their breath.
Lost cushion, collected bones.
A life misplaced.
I hope they...

The putrefy butterfly
I painted a portrait for you with a bile dipped brush,
While you were busy decomposing the music of your life,
On your knees sobbing pathetically to the seas that roared like thunder in return,
So droaned, groaned the sound of you not keeping well, no not well at all,
I smile, false smile, as it is beating in my mind that I could not infect your reason,
You seeped, poisoned breath, sigh,
Creepers pathed you in their knotted entrails,
Quiet for now, suffocating roots and spines wrapped around your jugular,
Shhhhh quiet now,
buried but not dead,
no...

prism collector
From a shattered million pieces
of fragile fragmented sharp cutting glass,
grew a stronger, clearer
rainbow prism collector
piece of diamond art.

love and fire
When your intellect is understood,
when your mind craves the conversations,
when your skin collides with magnetism,
when your electricity is vividly felt,
when your mind is overtaken,
when your story has no end,
parted by a sea of countries or entwined in your sheets,
the peace of understanding the unspoken words,
love never lost just miss-placed sometimes,
no rage, no cage,
just love and fire.
