Poison and Flame
There is a serpent, and there is a dragon,
They bargain for mind and heart,
With tongues and scales,
Through shedding skin and ashes,
Broken promises of euphoria.
In their witching hour,
Hypnotic, manic induction,
Feverishly driven,
A temptation and tease,
Replaces abundance.
With the moon behind the sun,
As shadows darken,
Purpose is plundered,
Through fascination,
A wondrous curiosity.
Stubborn and boneheaded,
The battle with eternal conviction,
Control and choice are...
They bargain for mind and heart,
With tongues and scales,
Through shedding skin and ashes,
Broken promises of euphoria.
In their witching hour,
Hypnotic, manic induction,
Feverishly driven,
A temptation and tease,
Replaces abundance.
With the moon behind the sun,
As shadows darken,
Purpose is plundered,
Through fascination,
A wondrous curiosity.
Stubborn and boneheaded,
The battle with eternal conviction,
Control and choice are...

Liquified, My Dear
Grab me a glass’
Who am I talking to?
No one, just me
Sitting in my solitude
Trembling hand fully extends
Reaching for that bottle
The eager liquid spills out
Filling the depths of my highball
Already drank all the beer
And all mixers are empty
Now to bring out the real stuff
Also known as the green fairy
The wormwood provides answers
The bitter licorice concedes
Ill feelings quickly fading
While animosity retreats
Who am I talking to?
No one, just me
Sitting in my solitude
Trembling hand fully extends
Reaching for that bottle
The eager liquid spills out
Filling the depths of my highball
Already drank all the beer
And all mixers are empty
Now to bring out the real stuff
Also known as the green fairy
The wormwood provides answers
The bitter licorice concedes
Ill feelings quickly fading
While animosity retreats

Resistance futile
I've searched high and low
I've looked far and close
There's no correct dose
No satisfying this host
Dreams turning dark
Fear comes from afar
Wounds won't scar
Night consumed stars
Thoughts going black
Virus has hacked
Rationality lacks
No turning back
There's no denial
Vicious and vile
Unbreakable cycle
Resistance futile
I've looked far and close
There's no correct dose
No satisfying this host
Dreams turning dark
Fear comes from afar
Wounds won't scar
Night consumed stars
Thoughts going black
Virus has hacked
Rationality lacks
No turning back
There's no denial
Vicious and vile
Unbreakable cycle
Resistance futile

Breathless mention
Tip the chalice
Drenched in malice
Ablaze and thankless
Of your vile
Strong compile
Essence tension
Liquid havoc
Breathless mention
Drenched in malice
Ablaze and thankless
Of your vile
Strong compile
Essence tension
Liquid havoc
Breathless mention

The devil’s smoke
A fair
A flair
A grim redress
No solemn hues that lack excess
A plan
A plain
A rogue domain
A tellers tale that lacks terrain
A sin
A pine
A patient’s coo
Swallow pills to be more ‘you’
A hit
A toke
The belly’s beast
Here to last to say the least
A ship
A quip
Those seller’s sales
Commit to sins behind the veils
Those who wander can’t get through
The handlers gifts will glean taboo
Amidst the haze of natures salve
you’ll reach the heights the more you have ...

No Tomorrow
you can call it depression
or lack of mental health
falling into addictions
because it’s the only thing that helps
and maybe I have given up
the world has lost its luster
guess I’m just like my father
drinking to forget
or just drinking, waiting for death
smoking till my eyes turn red
and fucking till my nuts hurt
throwing bomb ass parties
with people just as lost
a curvy girl with a mini skirt
can make the pain feel ok
the things she lets me do
has me sick, but I keep doing it
I ask myself ‘is it...

Scourge of the elixir
The scourge of the elixir
The potion of fate
The purge of the fixer
seven seconds too late
Minute by minute
And hour by hour
The salve to be swindled
From the seeds of a flower
Chasing the dragon
from his chalice, we sip
Unsheathing the needle
In search of the trip
The guise of the wired
The skin of their thrones
Their emotions misfire
To cast vie to their bones
Farewell, my reality
Force my mind to a place
Where I’ve really got nothing
In that world there to face
...

Force my mind to a place

I'm only a phone call away
There's a ledge
with your name carved into it
I watch as you look back at me
before you step into the free fall
knowing where you're going
I can't follow
It doesn't matter that my name
is etched into the stone history of us
it doesn't matter that I understand
how easy it is to fall into the abyss
it doesn't matter that I tried
to pave a different road for you
with all the blood my soul had to spare
sometimes fate finds us and binds us
and when we wake up like death
lingering at the bottom of the...

Slow Drip
I turn the sink knob tightly,
The rush of water slowly dissipates as the last of it sloshes down the drain.
As I turn to leave I hear it,
The drip.
So faint,
And so loud.
Drip
Drip
Drip
Continuous and unending,
Rhythmic and random.
The last remnants of a stream,
Clinging to their source like a child to its mother.
The evidence of being,
The whimpers of existence.
Drip
Drip
Drip
Why turn the tap off,
If the water will just drip.
Drip ...

Where does hope lie
Where does hope lie
In a broken mind
Disheveled room
Shadows absorbing light
Where does hope lie
In forgotten promises
Disappointed loved ones
Left alone at night
Where does hope lie
In unreturned calls
And unanswered knocks
Refusing to fight
Where does hope lie
In a tub of tepid water
Needle on the floor
Searching for another high
Where does hope lie
Water a pinkish hue
Cuts to guarantee
This was the last time
Where does Hope lie
Green glassy eyes ...
In a broken mind
Disheveled room
Shadows absorbing light
Where does hope lie
In forgotten promises
Disappointed loved ones
Left alone at night
Where does hope lie
In unreturned calls
And unanswered knocks
Refusing to fight
Where does hope lie
In a tub of tepid water
Needle on the floor
Searching for another high
Where does hope lie
Water a pinkish hue
Cuts to guarantee
This was the last time
Where does Hope lie
Green glassy eyes ...

repeating patterns
I curl myself inwards
on the bathroom floor
like I can hide from
the brutal honesty
I cast into the atmosphere
and set myself of fire with
I forgot to cash in my love tonight
and the soul debt grows
becomes desperate
and I would rather
weave myself into the walls
than give in to what's owed
My heart aches
and I can't face my own reflection
it's better if you don't look at me
it's better if you let me be a ghost
but you won't let me fade into nothing
and so I'm seen
and can't be...
