Help You Destroy Me
Driven, driven
The crucifixion on toast
Ignore the wise-men
Accept drugs
Woke up just to
Blow these brains out
Blood and crying into my mouth
Fresh meat for the new ritual
Rip out the wires and start again
Dead beat locust mother
In catharsis
It's not the individual
It's the analysis
Face down in the plate
Of self denial
Thanks and feeds the pain
In my eyes
Here, where the money is scarce
As the sun with a gun
Freedom in your face
Enjoy your condemned hell here
You're just as bad as the...

Self
As so many here I have been on a journey.
A journey to learn and improve my style of writing
The problem is I am starting to lose Fia.
That is not acceptable.
So, I was asked who I am
I AM FIA
I am raw when I want to be
I am sweet when I want to be
I can be an annoyance at times, but I catch myself and pull back
I am a natural encourager/ You need that push I will push soft or you need it hard well I do that too
I am not all dark
I am not all light
I swirl in the grey
If I claim you as a friend, then you...

dark glow
darkly glow in your angst
and relish your depths
all are deeply reflective of you
inside the greed rise
shelter in the need
fill the void where you can
deepest secrets kept
in the promises grow
with an intellect so keen
direct your business
be yourself above all else
who else can you be?
dangerous affairs of the heart lurk
don't get dragged under
resist kissing the devil
who in rugged blue jeans looks so good
be good to you
when you can be
take on the harder topics ...

Collage Art - Not Pretty - What I Do
On purpose
Cut up old paintings
Make collages
This one came out rustic
Added oil pastels
Functional
Not pretty
Life is like that
I’m not pretty anymore
Most parts still working …

LET'S CELEBRATE DESPITE THE WEIGHT
Oh, what the hell!
It's natural!
Let's celebrate
despite the weight
that's descended
and expanded
the hips and ass
of this 'hour glass'
of a figure.
Some may snigger
but it it is my
lived-in body.
I'm what I am;
don't give a damn!
It's natural!

LOOK INTO MY EYES
Can you look into my eyes 👁️ 👁️ and tell me, what is that you are seeking to see, if you look even deeper than deep into my eyes. For sure as you look into my eyes, you can see that I can't really see you cause I'm BLIND. But yet I can really see you just as you are to me, 😞 in skin and flesh and blood and bones as you stand there before me. For sure that they elders say that no one is sent to you by chance or accident 🧐 For if it's possible that they can be here, in your life and world and dreams, do they come with a positive level of energy and...

To The End of The Road
A journey may be seen
as an adventure of a lifetime.
The good times, always welcome.
The bad times, test the strength of the commitment.
If one heart forges onward
and another remains immobile-
where does the path converge
or split?
My thoughts implode from self-chatter.
My heart bleeds from self-doubt.
As a duo, was this only to be a partial trek?
Perhaps this is an unexpected very long dark tunnel
from which we’ll emerge into the light.
Or just maybe, the sky is to remain...
as an adventure of a lifetime.
The good times, always welcome.
The bad times, test the strength of the commitment.
If one heart forges onward
and another remains immobile-
where does the path converge
or split?
My thoughts implode from self-chatter.
My heart bleeds from self-doubt.
As a duo, was this only to be a partial trek?
Perhaps this is an unexpected very long dark tunnel
from which we’ll emerge into the light.
Or just maybe, the sky is to remain...

if I can just hold the thought...
my mind has a nasty habit
hassling me
backing me into a corner
taunting
that one small word
guaranteed to see me spiral
...why...
as if there ever was an honest answer
can't be...you know
it's too subjective...ever changing
meant to drive me crazy
right now though...
...I'm not having it
flipping the tables
maybe it isn't that I was too much
...but they weren't enough
couldn't match my incredible frequency
maybe it isn't that I was too little ...

Deeper Underground I Go
I can’t count the number
of poems I’ve expelled
beyond the busted seams
of experience
As if those seams could keep
the poems from my voice
How many emotions
were galactic tapestries
unraveling from a solar plexus
storing so many lives
How many verses reflect
the present
versus the ghosts
of a former century
And yet,
deeper underground
I go
The trick to navigating
the bowels of the beast
is not succumbing
to illusion over...

Sex toys have more staying power than poets
In kind of a funk.
So I ordered a
blue
eight inch
vibrating dildo
with six speeds
and a butterfly
attachment.
for the clit.
I’m naming it
‘Rebound.’
It does the same
damn thing
you did.
Better actually.
No messy
‘hey just used
you because
you were once
cool and then
mocked you
on the phone
with my girlfriend
every day’
shit.

estimates
it’ll be here ...

Late November
In late November the freezing cold rain remembers
To wash away the dirt and erode the past
So when the fractures in the pavement are watered
They can still grow weeds and flowers
And there, in between imagination and dream
The harshness of reality finally sets in
That amidst the ugly truths and pretty fantasies
I am reminded
I am broken, mended and healing
To wash away the dirt and erode the past
So when the fractures in the pavement are watered
They can still grow weeds and flowers
And there, in between imagination and dream
The harshness of reality finally sets in
That amidst the ugly truths and pretty fantasies
I am reminded
I am broken, mended and healing

Galaxy of Resiliency
" The wound is the place where the light enters you" - Rumi
I have deeply loved myself
despite a heart scarred with failed fates,
and wounded eternities.
Epoch lifetime battle scars and bleeds.
I wear my wounds.
Celebrate my ruins.
What could we possibly learn unmarred?
A scab on every single solitary place
your fingers touched me.
A myriad of patient scars,
to transform me into
a human galaxy of resiliency.
I have deeply loved myself
despite a heart scarred with failed fates,
and wounded eternities.
Epoch lifetime battle scars and bleeds.
I wear my wounds.
Celebrate my ruins.
What could we possibly learn unmarred?
A scab on every single solitary place
your fingers touched me.
A myriad of patient scars,
to transform me into
a human galaxy of resiliency.
