Hope (less)
I pick up the newspaper.
Scan the front page.
Fuck!
I turn on the T.V.
Shit, I can’t get away from it.
Rape as a weapon of war in Sudan.
Politician shot in Arizona,
others killed
Including little girl.
Washing in the river where they shit in India.
Juarez runs with rivers of blood
Drones over Afghanistan
IED’s in Iraq
Millions of dead fish
Birds dropping from the sky
Boy kills mom over fifty bucks.
Man rapes and kills 4 year old boy
Women for sale in every...

The Dragon Burns
The dragon is awakening
I feel it moving, rolling,
I feel the heat of its breath against my ribcage
I feel its heartbeat quicken
Mine quickens in response
I thought it would sleep forever
Lulled into permanent slumber
By the love I found in my family
Removing the need
To watch it burn
But the dragon burns again
Waking slowly, painfully
I feel it raise its ugly head
Pressing against my heart
With searing pressure
Opening its gaping maw
Beckoning me with the smoke
I thought had left me forever
The need is harsh and...

Dichotomy
From one moment or one day to the next I don't know what my frame of mind will be. I don't know how I'll feel. I don't know if the dreams and desires I've had until that time will be inspirational or will cause despair. I wonder if I'll actually follow through on my current mindset or it will be thrown upon the scrap heap with all of my previous illusions and delusions and ideas of health and wealth and fame and glory. I conceive of brilliant and sometimes not so brilliant plans to improve mine or someone else's life, but before I can see the plans to fruition, I lose drive and become lost in...

I wonder
I sometimes wonder if, when people look at me, they can tell that I've given up. Can they see the failure and disappointment in my eyes? Do they know that I once had wondrous, hope-filled dreams and that I've buried them so deep that I can barely remember what they were? Can they feel my sadness when I enter a room? I think they can.
I wish that someone could pierce the veil of my solitude and isolation, to delve deeper beneath the facade of my quiet shyness. I wish I could reach out from behind my walls of pain and shame and shout to the world that I'm alive! I exist! Someone please...

Burning
I look to you for freedom, for release that you cannot offer, for you possess it not. Yet it seeks you, and I seek you in this ashen mist of memory. Plumes of bitter smoke begin to course from our pyre, consuming our passion as our passion once consumed us. I glimpse your flesh through the smokescreen. I yearn for the heat of your body not the heat of this conflagration. I hear your loving laughter in the distance of memory as my heart turns to ashes.

My heart it beats
lub-dub, lub-dub, lub-dub..
it beats and beats and beats without rest, tirelessly, faultlessly, never betraying the secret wounds that it carries, never revealing the proximity of silence and motionlessness, never contemplating the meaning of its repetitious motion, it just beats..
lub-dub,lub-dub
as emotion constricts its motion
it beats
lub-dub, lub-dub..
as my mind contracts around it
it beats
lub-dub, lub-dub
as mybody writhes in agony
it beats
lub-dub, lub-dub
as my soul cries out for solace

To my ex-love Catalina
In your confusion you injure
not on purpose
not with purpose
you lose the rythm
you lose the ryhme
but in time
you will see
your driven attitude
may buy you latitude
but your perfectionist soul
will take it's toll
on the weary
and the wary
for your special gift
for angry love
is lost in the chasm
of your lonely soul
lost but unknowing
you reject the love
given in haste
such waste
is forgiven
for a time
but again the rhyme
is lost
at great cost
you drive on
to you Catalina
I write...

There's a Time
V. 1
It's the life that you're living
the love that you feel
that things that are fantasy
the things that are real
It's all that you want to be
and all that you are
the people and places
how much and how far
Chorus:
But there's a time
to hold your head high
a time for questioning
a time to ask why
a time to find your dreams
and reach for the sky
a time for decision
a time just to fly
V. 2
Your dream is your vision
your life's your reward
If you live life in conflict...

Consumed
I see her on the track
and I wonder what her pussy would taste like
and then I see that one
and I wonder what her pussy would feel like wrapped around my cock
and then that one appears
and I wonder if she likes to have her ass licked
and then I see her friend
and I wonder if they've ever eaten each other
or shared a cock
and then I think about the hot couple who owns the convenience store
and I think that just to get to her pussy
I might go through him
then I tell myself that I'm a fucking pervert
and then I laugh and keep looking
and...

Silent No More
While the blood of kings is spilled from Crown to Crown the children suffer. Alive with the knowledge of oppression in silence. Share the pain with no one. Hold the flame of desire in the palm of your hand and feel it burn. Guardians of truth shot on sight. Rise against this attraction to silence. Your heart will burn with its own incandescence. Your minds, with the minds of others, will erode the illusion of greatness. The figureheads of civilized men will fall at the beckoning of truth. Fuck this denial of pain, for we live in a society that creates and acceps pain as the norm. Fuck the...

Alabaster Watershed
Mortal remains in an alabaster watershed. Feel the pins and needles dancing on the eyes of your soul, reminding you of desperate days gone by and crystalline dreams of forsaken futures. Your mind reaches out for the whispers of eternity on satin chains of lavenders breath.
Wish for me.
Wish with me.
Hold me in the arms of your desire. Consume me in your passion for life beyond the amethyst rythmns of mortal unbliss.
Speak for me.
Speak with me.
Alone? Never.
Awake? Always.
Speaking only in the dark chambers of my wandering...
