POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
too much dysfunction
it wasnt the same i couldnt find joy in her smile today
all i could think is wow shes given everything
and takes care of nothing
it was obvious we were pretending to want to be around each other
the night ended early
i couldnt respect all of her anymore
i felt surrounded by only the degenerates and it was depressing me.
so i pulled the hermit card and called other people on my phone list in hopes i might make friends with the normal ones again.

true
underneath it all lies a thin layer of frozen blood
ive recommended they stop honking the horn
it rattles my insides and crowds are to much
quiet is not enough
i bought a bottle of wine gonna drink it down with some pain pills on some random night
moderation is the key
and im not lying.

PATRIOCRACY
IN THE DAYS OF GIVING MY BEST I FEEL MY WORST
THEN IM OKAY LIKE A RAINBOW
IM LOOKING FOR A POT OF SILVER
THE LEPROCAN ATE THE GOLD
HIS NAME WAS ERIC
HE SHIT IT OUT BRONZE
AND IM LOOKING TO RIDE THE RAINBOW ON A SLED IN THE LIFE OLYMPICS
ERIC FIGHTS FOR AMERICA AND IM FIGHTING FOR MARS VENUS AND JUPITER
UNFORTUNATELY ERIC HAS WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION
AND IM PLANETARY PEACE
HE HATES ME
EVERY TIME MY RAINBOW APPEARS AND DICIPATES
USUALLY IM CONFUSED
HE HAS NO IDEA WHO I AM
OR HOW I MAKE TO OUTER SPACE
BUT TODAY IM LANDING IN...

ONLY
IVE ONLY JUST BEGUN
AND AGAIN I START OVER LIKE PEALING GUM OFF THE BOTTOM OF YOUR SHOE
IN THE RAINY DAYS I SLUMBER BUT IM WRITING AGAIN
AND I AM A WOMAN WHO HAS GROWN INTO A MAN
IM LEARNING NEW WAYS AND CULTIVATING THE OLD
IF ONLY I COULD REACH OUT TO THE UNIVERSE
IF ONLY THE ANSWERS WERE EASY
IF ONLY I COULD WRITE
THE RIGHT THING

painted
I've opened the paintings
enjoying acrylic rain
their doors had been locked
unleashed the hounds of brush strokes
no one knew my abstract ideals
or the dance of each stroke
no one knew my color scheme
or the no mistake law
layers of paint like
the epidermis was drawnby god
all shades so beautiful
reds and yellows
tanning in the sun
we are all blank canvas in the begining
it is the world that designates what is beauty
however who would hang you in their living room
if your colors weren't perfect
if you weren't framed but...

advice from a 32 year old
Enjoy the ride
enjoy the night
live like royalty in your mind
swallow the music
listen to your food
enjoy the shower
bathe your friends with smiles
inherit the wisdom of a homless person
let them enjoy the shower
enjoy that there is a tomorrow
live life how you want
and enjoy the times you feel as pure as an infants innocence
enjoy simplicity and embrace complexity
dream and pray to help those you love
remember time is your friend
dance
enjoy the seasons
enjoy the ability to see the heavens and fireworks
taste like you...

getting out the funk or not that is the question
forbidden to me it seems is the land of riches
sadness is what i know
happiness is what i beg god for
anger fuels my agenda
darkness fills my head and i cant get over the past abuse
so ive melded into the lifestyle of what is called lower class
living off very little
with very little extra help
tired of the bussus and sadness i feel for the injustice of homelessness
a sense of giving up and fighting just to try has become the norm
tell me lord what is my purpose
why was i born?

my dark personal ad
There are the sides to me I will reveal
The sometimes nail bighter
The easily demon friendly ghost hunter
The exhibitionist
The tarot reader
The empty sex drive
The too many men
The psychotic sex drive
......worldliness
The loss of will and fight
The determination through the voices that come from inside out of my head
The ability to love someone forever.
