Precarious.
It rolls in
like the tide
washing over
caressing pain
perfectly
drowning out
isolating
prayed for relief
in cool
fluidity
silent cooing,
relentless
in
terrifying
temptation

drowning out

I swore off writing sex poems for about 8 hours and then promptly wrote some more .....
Hey if it's not erotic
Then I'm psychotic
Looking for narcotics
So be my muse
Try to amuse
If not
I'll take a snooze
I hate rhyme
You have nice tits
Take off your clothes
Then I'm psychotic
Looking for narcotics
So be my muse
Try to amuse
If not
I'll take a snooze
I hate rhyme
You have nice tits
Take off your clothes

A cup of coffee does not save
A dull pain pierces the walls
The heart has no more strength
And you do not believe in change,
having turned on apathy for the whole
And a cup of coffee does not save,
Now you do not feel the heat
Nothing in the world cares
I am drunk by you to the bottom
So enjoy for a minute!
Be proud of what you did to me!
I see the world of bright colors dimly,
Forgetting about happiness and peace ...
Breaking down the walls of my barriers,
You thought to settle in them,
And you asked, Are you welcome here?
Oh yes! Of course, I...
The heart has no more strength
And you do not believe in change,
having turned on apathy for the whole
And a cup of coffee does not save,
Now you do not feel the heat
Nothing in the world cares
I am drunk by you to the bottom
So enjoy for a minute!
Be proud of what you did to me!
I see the world of bright colors dimly,
Forgetting about happiness and peace ...
Breaking down the walls of my barriers,
You thought to settle in them,
And you asked, Are you welcome here?
Oh yes! Of course, I...

Totally bored
She thought
She would please
Her friends with
Her oiuja board.
Not quite
They got totally
Bored.

Chaos of deafening screams
Reality has fled, left with only daydreams
Here I stand in mental confusion
Tears of disillusion
God help me please
Souls dropping today to their knees
Anyone have a tissue
Blood, guts, no glory, no wishes
As a nurse, is my existence mended into someone else’s pain
Last breath, last rites, never to feel or see the rain
God, I look to you each and every day
People have love, faith, yet, for the...

solace
hateful dawn look away
don't peer into my soul today
in my reckoning hours--
there will be time enough to take note of my being
wisdom my tarnished crown
no longer of use
I seek sanctuary in the solemn silence
there may I find reprieve
my debt too great
I throw myself into the fray
understanding no longer knows my name
chaos my undoing
I can not reconcile my thoughts
lonely are my days wandering
I can see you at first blush
as you usher back the darkness
inside your solace I am found...whole ...

Zero Dark Thirty
this is not
a false alarm
his panic has lost
it's bleak charm
the room is small
dark and dirty
he is going all in
zero for thirty
herpetic memories
bring him harm
like used needles
stuck in his forearm
missed meals make
his vision blurry
always light headed
he'd rather not worry
powder and pills
good luck charms
a cheap motel
no fire alarm
she finds him
on the ground
eyes closed
body jerking
no friend
no phone ...
a false alarm
his panic has lost
it's bleak charm
the room is small
dark and dirty

Yesterday 7:58am
Yesterday 7:58am
the good old days
sitting in front
of my coffee
the world turns
to shit,
what else is
new.
windows afraid
to look outside.
caught in the
crosshairs
of the day,
the sink throws
up in disgust,
not one damn
good revolution
in the air.
where are all the
mad men?
the manifestos?
the Caesars?
probably riding
around in hybrids,
monetizing
YouTube.
how far away from
the Gods we have
fallen.

FRAGILE MOMENTS OF TIME
They say time heals everything but truly is it time that heals us are is it the mind that heals the true depth of ones inner soul, for that is the question not really ask of the mere deepness of ones spiritual soul for we all go through trails and tribulations, whether its dealing with the hurt with pain and betrayals of love or the death of the passing of someone but yet we each deal with it in our own ways. For its true sometimes the love dies even before its given the chance to grow due to situations beyond our control, but yet we continue to fight and plea for that love at all cost even...

Allured
I showed you
the diving depths
into my heart.
Apart from
that, I would not
guide you well.
Hell in its
most literal form,
but you dove.
I stood on the cove,
and I bid you farewell.
Bells tolled
determining
your destiny.
The best in me
expected
your return.
Burn is what
the worst of me
desired.
Though admired
the latter I discern.
the diving depths
into my heart.
Apart from
that, I would not
guide you well.
Hell in its
most literal form,
but you dove.
I stood on the cove,
and I bid you farewell.
Bells tolled
determining

The best in me
expected
your return.
Burn is what
the worst of me

All that remains
mad
burning mad
blistering skin mad
radiation fallout mad
we've been had
why am I so glad
this world is so fucked up
i just up chucked
.
the madness takes all we can give
and leaves no reason left to live
we drown our apathy
with lust and fantasy
which could be fun
if we could only outrun
the earth that's been overdone
.
our extinction is such a fuss
if the climate doesn't kill us
then the politics must
so I hide under the covers
waiting for a lover
with wit so clever
as I...
