POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
it's okay
you're allowed to feel depressed,
you're allowed to suffer stress,
you can let yourself go down deep dark holes
stuck talking to the mess in the mirror.
eat for comfort, pay for sex,
get fucked on booze and cigarettes,
just know why you're doing it,
accept you're in the shit,
that's the only way back to real life to live.

sense is dry to touch
stuck in a cycle of love story words
in a far away place of days,
this whirlwind existence of nothing learned,
no thoughts and nothing to say.
a stale, non-living protected shield
in a bubble where fear don't reach,
adventures barred, no emotions to feel
and pain only goes skin deep.

slovenian love song
i don't want to be here, i don't want to be there,
kind of don't want to be anywhere
but i'd go anywhere if i was with you
and that's all i want to do.
so chisel away at my sclerotic heart
that has deconstructed and fell apart
from all the half-hearted endeavours of mine,
i need a full heart and half a mind
like less thinking and more living,
more feeling and less giving
a shit about the deeper end of life
because that all happens when i a lot less try
to force myself to inspiration,
these deeper meanings i'm always chasing
but that...

live and love
the tethered balloons are flying,
the collared doves have flown,
the blossomed trees are vying
for their places in the sun.
my beating heart is pondering
the slow course of the blood,
my mind again is wandering
to plains of want and love
so i live and i love
then i learn not to care so much
then i learn to live and love again,
i learn to live and love again.
to sex and philosophy,
to dreaming dreams of lust,
to things i think are not for me,
i'm really not that tough.
from a plundering trajectory
that dances...

potential energy - part 3
sitting empty in retreat,
hermetic, ascetic peace,
vacuous nothing, nothing to think,
driven to read, driven to drink.
distant dream, the things i'd like to,
someone to know and someone to write to,
to drink coffee, share a cigarette,
to pour whisky, uninhibited sex.
idle coast, driven out,
life to live, to write about,
spilt coffee, dropped cigarette,
undrunk whisky, nothing left.

red blood
red blood, bear hugs,
lusts and loves and kisses.
minimum fuss, parisian shrugs,
scars from carnal wishes.
strongest head, paths to tread,
adventures and near misses.
scarlet red, veins bled,
bruising hearts and livers.

missing pieces
i am a jigsaw,
that's no metaphor,
i'm one bought from a charity shop,
so many bits missing that makes me so lost
in a world where everyone seems so complete
but i can't even walk, can't find my feet
and i really need a girl to sing into my arms,
a girl who can tap in and feel my heart
when she lies with her head on my chest.
