Unwilling To Conform
Burning the candle at both ends
Constantly being spread razor thin
Running sprints never marathons
Some races weren’t meant to win
Taking risks in this constant game
Doubling down on chaos tomorrow
Breaking free from a stagnant view
That bankrupts all those who follow
Driving communication to the brink
Navigating through this angry storm
Nothing ever bothers the status-quo
Except all of us unwilling to conform
Constantly being spread razor thin
Running sprints never marathons
Some races weren’t meant to win
Taking risks in this constant game
Doubling down on chaos tomorrow
Breaking free from a stagnant view
That bankrupts all those who follow
Driving communication to the brink
Navigating through this angry storm
Nothing ever bothers the status-quo
Except all of us unwilling to conform

lies and fiction
sensational painful hurt
keen in metaphors and slam the door
on all double talkers
cruelty is its own master
the divinity of the flesh causes distrust
you eat lust and dust
dangling a pretty carrot
will you also eat from a liar's breast
instinctual education I was your love
disappearing memories I see the sky alone
and a sun that burns
you can only reach so high
before the clouds dissipate
and your imaginary dinosaurs disappear
with a light wind
leaning on my kindness
is it folly to think it...

Taxonomy
You correctly identified me.
You showed you
weren’t afraid to
lose me
lose us.
And you showed
what I am,
who I am to you.
* * *
I agree.
* * *
I fucking agree.
I am nothing.
and nobody
of importance
You showed you

In search of inner peace
Through this subject of the course of our lives, when we have to learn to make real life decisions. FOR sure it's gonna be hard, yet it's necessary to understand what it will take to be able to achieve, that what is necessary to have that kind of life. THAT you crave and want and need, to sustain a beautiful quality of life. For sure there will be moments in your life, that you yourself will have to question yourself to realize, that there will be things outside of your own control, as you have to be able to understand the realistically. WHAT you will have to do to correct your own...

Breaking Confidence
Breaking Confidence
I trusted in an old friend in some casual conversation
Understanding certain things are said in confidence
When I say “entre nous” I really mean it stays between us
It should be a pact to be honored with vigilance
And when I heard my words being echoed months later
From a different person and from a different city
I put the pieces to that puzzle when I made the connection
I felt betrayed and I all thought was “what a pity”
I felt hurt that the very thing I didn’t want to be divulged
Ran through the ears of...

Littered in Shame but Not Sorry
We did that
It was messy but that's where the lust lay
When the guilt bit hard
You wanted to be friends
We all know that's bullshit
Crash and burn lullaby
Nobody survives that unscathed
Then finally we became nothing
I don't hate you
I don't feel nothing
I don't even want to grudge fuck ya
Remember the old days
Bending you over my work desk
On overtime no less
Getting paid for our sins
That was something
We are a zero sum babe
I don't know if you cheated on me
We were already cheating on...
It was messy but that's where the lust lay
When the guilt bit hard
You wanted to be friends
We all know that's bullshit
Crash and burn lullaby
Nobody survives that unscathed
Then finally we became nothing
I don't hate you
I don't feel nothing
I don't even want to grudge fuck ya
Remember the old days
Bending you over my work desk
On overtime no less
Getting paid for our sins
That was something
We are a zero sum babe
I don't know if you cheated on me
We were already cheating on...

-USTING
Your aggressive thrusting,
making no adjusting,
outworking your lusting
until you were busting,
betrayed all my trusting.
making no adjusting,
outworking your lusting
until you were busting,
betrayed all my trusting.

The Miller's Tale ( Pushkin Sonnet )
Young housewives—dark thrills inspire them;
but, when pressed for action doth feign
virtue against a parish man,
while bedding a more nobler Cane.
Ye husbands! heed this chronicle!
When deceit doth snake full circle
seeking to utterly deceive,
truth can be too hard to believe.
The poor husband, an innocent,
reputable among town folk,
unwittingly becomes a joke
in the sinner's moral dissent!
The husband prays for a godsend;
The parishioner! He's a...

Butterfly Effect
The sea is like listening
a butterfly fluttering
its wings in the dark.
Why don't they open
the windows wide?
If they already know so well
who else can fly!
The tidal wave just came
long after
someone confessed
to the walls.
The tidal wave lasted
so little
compared to
as long as it could
last a tidal wave.
Like butterflies without wings
there are women
who fake orgasms
and men
who pretend whole lives...
