POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Its just dictation from the graffiti inside the outside walls of my head that changes like the weather- lost socks with a keyboard.
Message to a friend
I am superpoet
Meaningless dribble thrown at a wall all in a lame attempt to impress my faulted , dryrotted ego
I impress only myself, i write things that seem to be portraits of color stuck rotating in upsidedown gifs 3 inchs back from the eyes, words become simplistic childs math that only i have the answer key to- absolute perfect sense when written becomes abstract art- its sandcastles at the tide change during a hurricane blizzard
I love it

Flip.
Fishing line lost in the parade of bottomless souls seeks a moment of justice for the almighty box with no door.
Why, how, reason....it doesnt matter -
2 for 1 and 1 for all, 3 reasons make none.
Discomfort spells your name wrong on the alter of days gone by.
Ivory robes dance meaningless praise into thin callous air filled with the stence of cheap perfume.
Hands to the sky, you coward.
Preach to me- do as im told...
mental rape for a buck.
Wicker stained in the blood of guilt, you nasty mere human....

Atoms waiting
The penguin and the otter discuss current events by the frozen river.
Exclamations points to your chest filled with treasures of yesterdays worries.
2 black cats fight in the distance it takes 2....2 realize i have no imagination.
Numb is dumb, so why not walk on the coals maybe you'll feel the pain is better than the comfort.
The moaning vacuum brings her peace only for a moment, gathering dust for a few coins, the American dream.
A yacht sits waiting for the pig to drown the waters with bloated ego.
Look 360' birds fly,...

Here we go...
Spooling orange fire- red sea, orange river unite inside my eyes like battering rams.
Bald rubber wet slips into burnt lids, echoes only what it wills inside the house of random.
My blinders have to many holes holding peace back, no ransom - just gates of screaming distractions bellow my name.
Rusty pickforks glow in the moonlight overused on their dayjob.
Black n white even in color- rage the only guest invited to a party of one.
Dust mutes the keys inside panics piano, am radio - statics white noise is so peaceful.

Hey bud
Eyes closed
Head dent.
Its so nicing in here today, the hurricanes have passed, the wind is soft,.. sand no longer in my iris grinding my eyelids just the floaters out for a spin around the whites and brown of my eyes, must be like a white moon
Never take such a peaceful place for granted your as lucky as you believe your wants.
The faint whisper of the news on tv and iggy pop on my phone, the harmony works i dont dare try to dismantle it , perfection comes in many forms
Blink. I lost my count 311, 182 oh here it is 0u812

If i say to you tomorrow.
Basement flooded with blue sky.
Deep shadows breathe.
Only. For a moment......I saw a thought.
Knees drill the concrete only to find no answer.
Maiden voyage for once, ... no captain.
Wood frame burns twilight
Enough is not said, only forgiven.
Real life, plastic dreams, recycling the past leaves more room to dump false memoirs.
Wade out, fog in the water never counts your blessing.
Maybe those deer have a soul begging in the churchs pinstriped parking lot.
Say........

AIR SALE CHEAP
Lookouts hands shake the crows nest.
Thread the needle in the hurricane of frozen hands.
Pinprick needs new friends.
Lollipops rain from the sky until i wake from this dream
memory steals the good ones, i wonder if they play poker to decide their fate.
The silent dog says life is good.
Happy kinda looks like yahoo upside down if you squint a little.
Paint shaker on full tilt, i rather dive into the seperation and swim with the colors sky blue, blue, and desert snow.
She looks like a regal trotting horse...

Armchair poet
The armchair sits patiently
Red wagon wheels squeak when fog floods the playgound
Vanilla sky kills the fat one
Decimal points ruin the day
Swimming to the surface cool air saturation peaks my lungs, hardwired to fear steps down inside the staircase of doubt.
Mozart visits for tea, but all i have is coffee
Hey professor, you dont understand because you can't teach beyond your chances never trolled in a sea of embittered ego
Don't, I wouldn't, better not, play safe, be careful, pay attention- redundancy in...

Boil the maker.
Once again the opera plays to def ears, i wish i cared more but reason will pick up.the tab.
Blink- move on mister - shock and awe- been there before weve done that.
Notice nothing with a shot of morphine
Dull still has ability- perception from that thick rubber band stops the pulse, any blade can still be sharpened if will would get its act together
Cant should have never been a word
Impossible should only be used on the misson of no regrets
How can she not know what windex is that filthy bitch
Mute the dirty...

Full moon
Ol' Fezziywig was the power of now...
Water flows in dark pipes only to be set free from the a copper prison.
Frozen thaws giving the finger like a petchlent child.
Coursing through my veins doesnt sound so spooky anymore
Tempo sets the mood= mood starts wills engine every time
House full of flies inside my thoughts, todays reason hasn't shown its hand
How can wrongs turn to rights when left looses sight of the carmed intention.
Smell sits in the corner while sight, taste and hear talk shit about the steps...

bout an inch or 2 from the gates
pathways operant -
as taught becomes the loose bolt
tossing " why " like greek plates- each a flash only governed by the frayed strands of misunderstanding
Wires inside once connected sit alone- no pity from the others soaked in white dust all standing at attention like little obedient drug addict nazis-
who wins- the shadow or the maker- nobody cares anyway as long as the saturated stay fat.
Masking worry creates the crime- the body rejects yet get no choice from the talking heads.
Safe from the howling sky - I sit alone...
