Poet Introduction
I think out loud. Scribble a few words. These scribblings are my journal.
Opening "Night"
4/14/16
Opening "Night"
May we be of swift intellect to exercise upon fleeting, and occasional moments,
a slick tongue,
delivering an ephemeral symphony of
delicately sweet
"nothings"
to be lovingly
misconstrued, swatted and kissed

Hell to Pay
12/9/15
Hell to Pay
You real bad
Walkin' 'round my desk, looking over into my cubicle
talkin' shit and whatever as you walk by
You'd change your tune real quick if I did my trap door spider impression
and snatched your ass over into my lap
You - giggling, squirming and carrying on
while I mercilessly abscond kisses from your neck,
you motherfucker, you
Work - the Heaven that Hell built

At the Close of The Storm
11/23/15
At the Close of The Storm
The thing that moved the mountain the most
was not damming the flood
stemming the tide
soaking the river
grooming the flora
traversing the hills
It was the way her fingers clasped over his
after the culmination of the storm

For the Moment
11.9.14
For the Moment
For the moments that pass,
reaching memory
Spilling speech,
tingles ask - drowning sensory
Seeking sillogy, taking class
Vicious vacuum, unveil flask
Drunk with pow
'like' me now - moon jumps cow
For the moments that pass,
feeling motions
In too deep, fingers clasp;
coming notions
Stung
with movements,
striking sonnets
Blue-est potions, floral fawning
Be as buck,
come undone
Duran - stuck
Ballroom dancing; making love...

When Words get in the Way
11.4.14
When Words get in the Way
The words that get in the way
When anger prevails
Weak reasons set sail
Silky Seething; aggravation
Poorly patient - constipation
Set the sight, angry nights;
It's alright
When words get in the way
When words get in the way
Find myself at a loss
Tender temps? Feelings: frost
Fielding dreams and starvation
Poorest patience - on vacation
Starting fights, fuses light
Dynamite - it's alright....

Poetry: Brick to Mortar LOI
9.16.14
Brick to Mortar LOI
Got bricks for the mortar;
sniff sawdust
No tricks for the trovers,
just - 'awesome'
Enjoy Kung Fu - I come at you
You like pandas - I got snafus
Put your hands up, or come hand cuffs;
I unstrap proof
Don't think you can stand up;
keep still
Soft silk for tied ankles;
applied steel
Got counters, got tables
Not joking, can't save you
Strange stroking, just hold on:
wood - "stables"
Some
isle of view, with abandon
Think...

Necessary Evil
9.2.14
Necessary Evil
I do the evil that men do
When reducing the dance floor to bedroom
You look at me, thankful
Backing up, sinking
....grateful
It's shameful
what men do
what you do
The ship coasts and sails
I'm harpoon
and I'm whale
Bobbing wood, begin swell
Fire cannon, seeking shells
I'll ne'er do well as a pirate
It's alright
full mouth bites
- walk plank, you
Save this grind
(peace of mind)
with these steps
Keep in time, piece of...

Dirty Mercy
4.29.14
Dirty Mercy
Nothing else matters when you need to clean your house
Rub at those curious spots furiously
see if you can get them all out
What's it all about
- the dirt, the grime, the blame
Shitty little things without names
that worked their way into the pysche' - it's alright, it's life!
And when we're hungry
we'll eat anything - just like Mikey
Like Ike see - start fighting
I'll lay it down where you like
but don't like lying
Careless whispers
when words can't size up my...

Daze of the Weak
5.7.12
(revised 11.15.13)
Daze of the Weak
Weak for fair flesh
When I'm a freak and care less
When I'm given to sharing the baser parts of my lascivious intellect
and the days turn into weeks
...and then stretch
Distilled turpentine; to drink
to bleed less
Painting banes cannot strip
seeds of stress
While whipping my weak
Wary freak meets my meek
Mourning moments I mismanaged my mess
Stiffening the serpentine lust
Quickening with calm, comes the crush
The pain is...

The Death and Dishonor of Mars
1.11.14
The Death and Dishonor of Mars
What if
Things were not as they seemed
What if 'to think' was perhaps *only* 'to dream'
What if
What secondguessing
What convalescing
What dragging, what nagging - what screams
What bragging
Strange scratching
Skycraping with phallus
What callous, outlandish - wet dreams
What saddles
What horses
Ride dragons
Strip corsets
What strap-straddle forces
Drown streams
What about - Fuck it
....Know what I mean?

The Emancipation of Mrs. Jones
4.6.13
The Emancipation of Mrs. Jones
Anticipation may be the mother of all joneses
So when I strip down timid temples with my roamin mentions;
Steady with my straps for cracks - claytures nomen, ache when opened, omens ventured - quips for quacks
When I show up with my marvin throbbin'
Back of throat 'til throw up spartan
Shield with slomin; sloppy, slobbin'
Choking back sylabbin - sutures
Censures, quenches - sprites, just do it
Feel the skills within the steel
Wracked with romance, caught on reels

Baggage Claim
8.20.13
Baggage Claim
Pack a piece for distant travel
Emotions make baggage unravel
Points of madness, we can have it
Damages demand of dear agnes
Relationships whip with the sailing
Treasure the trips over railings
Feelings became failings
Ceilings hit salines
Tears point to north; waves foam and froth
My fears ran rampant, dank and stagnant;
wet and putrid - loose, not lucid
Through the nooses, look what you did
Hung for crimes, this time I'm stupid
Sick for...
