POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
The other way
I noticed you,
In costume like
Like a European portrait,
Short crop hair
Pale face
I saw you walk by,
Pretty
I held you in my heart
But you looked the other way
In costume like
Like a European portrait,
Short crop hair
Pale face
I saw you walk by,
Pretty
I held you in my heart

I shall die
I
Who write upon this page
Who send evil
Door knock
Grin
Let me in
Why
Good evening Sir
Rape perhaps
Or something a little
More subtle
Mmm suffocation
Ha ha
Ha it's death here
A knife silver
Slither
Just a slither of you
My heart
You are beautiful
And tonight
we buried you
Goodnight
my friend
R.I.P.

Ode to Washington navy yard victims
Kill OR be killed
Live
Or die
Submerge
or suffocate
Touch death
Evil lives here
In this gun
POW!
Wow
I am floating in heave
N
With all my brothers
A d all my sisters
Feathers tickling my feet
Angels caress ing
God
Why are guns manu
Fac tured
How is evil born?
And I am
missing you
Live
Or die

or suffocate
Touch death

The purpose of life
All killing is killing
Grotesque cat
Kill bird
Bursting bird
Ate worm
Worm ate ...
Themselves
Now you might ask
What the purpose of life is
??????????????????????????????????
It's the killing
Grotesque cat
Kill bird
Bursting bird
Ate worm
Worm ate ...

What the purpose of life is
??????????????????????????????????

Waiting for forgiveness
O God of Abraham
Isaac, Jacob
In evil I have played
And so I speak to you in kind
Begging for forgiveness
Pleading for grace
That mercy be bestowed
And compassion be swayed
To join us in the garden of sin
That you opened your gates
Let in love and peace
Swam up the river of hope
Undressed upon the banks of loneliness
Placed vine leaves on these wounds
Squeezed life from death
Sweetness from pain and
Love from hate
There our brothers lay
In the valley of desolation
And our sisters strewn across...

Six pence
By this neck I fall
As ye ride horses free
🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴
Shooting me in the chest
Six feet under
🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫
God I swear it wasn't me
But some other scoundrel
unbeknown
😗😗😗😗😗😗
Buried at sunset unloved
For six pence and three

The face of death
God is my witness
👑👑👑👑👑👑
By the river deep I pray
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
At knee deep then chest

Until under
Drowning in the sunlight

Looking out through waters
😰😰😰😰😰😰
Death stares this way

Cars
Cars are sexy in particular red
Ferrari is perfect in my head
My American Ford in aqua blue
Drives from LA to San Diego zoo
Cramped on trains and ferries hurl ...

Life
Life is an onion
I wish it was sweeter
My toes hurt from bunions
As my feet walk St Peter
There is paint on my toes
And sin on my head
As God only knows
The heart of pure lead
I wish it was sweeter
My toes hurt from bunions
As my feet walk St Peter
There is paint on my toes
And sin on my head
As God only knows
The heart of pure lead

Diabetic days
Looking out yonder
The people pass by
Radiation burns everywhere
Tears flow
There by the corner store
Where the hoodlum went
Went went
Tears flow
Ah there the lady goes by
Something awaits her, perhaps
Diabetic days and
Tears flow
The people pass by
Radiation burns everywhere
Tears flow
There by the corner store
Where the hoodlum went
Went went
Tears flow
Ah there the lady goes by
Something awaits her, perhaps
Diabetic days and
