i want what you can give me
i want what you can give me
or at least i think i do
your messages, your face in my mind
they haunt me all damn night
i want you to give me that attention
to be soft and sweet and - oh, not again neglection!
i‘ll let you walk all over my boundaries
end up being used and never getting to have anniversaries.
i hate the power you have over me
and my power over you, the one i physically feel
can’t you just be nice to me, supportive even?
can‘t you show me affection, love i really believe in?
all you do is use me,...

Maybe
Maybe
You tell me that you love me, maybe the best way you know how. You treat me like I am regular, we both know I am rare.
The position you want isn’t vacant. Is it a position you can fill? Maybe that position really requires you to heal.
Maybe we are just passing time, educating each other about love and life. You think that you want me? Maybe its lust that fuels your desires.
Maybe if you’d ask, I’d say I want it to be you. Maybe I’d have the courage to tell you, I’m scared of being alone too.
Maybe it’d be perfect or maybe a dumpster fire. Spend 24 hours...

LOVE IN MY ARMS (I)(original 1st draft;1976; Poretto Jetty, Galveston, Texas; struggling with being Gay at 22 yr.s old)
love in my arms
here then gone
comes and goes
like some rare moon tide
so infrequently in my life
sunrise soon brightened
into new day
but it s clarity only added to
my ever deepening
self loathing s confusions
so i chose to stay home
until the sun had gone down
as evening eventually arrived
only a comfortable disguise
then down to the beach i walked
as night s darkness soon fell upon me

The parlour in view
Thundering cues
Provided by you
Affair of the minds
The darkest of kinds
The greener the grass
The absence of class
Sifting through shards
As you wander through yards
Smitten, you woo
for a love that’s taboo
Infatuated deep
Why these feelings you keep?
Fate, our designer
The real star aligner
Flattery and grace
In our secret space
The presence of lustre
In the words that you muster
You sow what intrigues me
You know how to please me
You’re...

Fine Blackberry Wine
BlackBerry Wine
The taste is fine
The shade of my lips
Before they’ve been kissed
And adorned with lipstick
The glass is half full
I still feel the pull of the sweet night
As I close my eyes
The moon keeps me company
I never feel lonely
Blackberry wine
The taste of a sweet line
One says to get you in bed
The type of man you want to forget but can’t
I might switch back to Blueberry
The taste is fine

The glass is half full

Blackberry wine

We like what
We like
But if you
Haven’t tried
What you don’t know
How can
You be aware
Of what you prefer?
I went on a quest
To satisfy
My curiosities
My fantasies
Women are sensual
Tempting
Enticing
And it’s true
A woman just
Knows
Threesomes are sublime
Gratifying
Dreamy
Various parts stimulated
Simultaneously
While all of you
Is activated
Indescribable...

it's stoner love, I promise
I rarely let people
see me stoned
but I like this good girl image
paired with the random sick things
I say when the lights are dim
and my body vibrates
to a frequency higher than my inhibitions
His smile fucking kills me
and I want to find out what lies
beneath his careless boho facade
like getting bent over
in the bushes at a hippy drum circle
I want feel the beat of every hit
he can drive into me
in this heightened frenzied ecstasy
I hand him the quarter he came for
but I don't speak...

Shadowed Romance
Forbidden fruit, a taste so sweet,
In quiet corners, hearts would meet.
Two hearts entwined in secret's dream,
Their love, a never-ending theme
Whispered vows beneath the night,
A hidden love, a stolen flight.
The world outside could never know,
The fire that set their souls aglow,
In silent moments, they would find,
A love that left the world behind.
But in their hearts, the truth was clear,
A love so deep, so pure, sincere,
Though shadows may obscure the way,
Their love would live beyond the day.
Fate...

But in their hearts, the truth was clear,
A love so deep, so pure, sincere,
