Icy Rain
The rain. Vapour, splatter.
The temperature drops.
Icy rain.
Snow will come within the week.
A man stands alone at the bus stop, shivering.
Rain bounces off the pavement, splattering his shoes.
He is already late for work.
The rain is raw and lacking in mercy.
The temperature drops.
Icy rain.
Snow will come within the week.
A man stands alone at the bus stop, shivering.
Rain bounces off the pavement, splattering his shoes.
He is already late for work.
The rain is raw and lacking in mercy.

rot gut
are you angry?
because I didn't tell you everything
each little detail of my past & present
I don't feel obliged to disclose my life story
you wanted my reality
i've shared some
it's been ugly & nasty
some beautiful victories
mostly beaten into the ground
just to brush the dust off
& walk on
i'm a fighter
I don't know how to lie down & quit
I'll go 12 rounds
with the monsters...

Empty
I still remember a 20 pound weight on his floor
and smiling
and weakly saying, "Yeah, I couldn't even lift that."
I'm supposed to be impressed,
and maybe I am a little.
But nah, not really.
It's all just empty.
You have a nice car?
You have a nice house?
You have a nice body?
Hm, that's nice.
Next.
The world is swirling around,
like a merry go round,
and all I wonder is
when the happy mask will fall off
and when the happy mask salesman will go,
"You've met with a terrible fate,...
and smiling
and weakly saying, "Yeah, I couldn't even lift that."
I'm supposed to be impressed,
and maybe I am a little.
But nah, not really.
It's all just empty.
You have a nice car?
You have a nice house?
You have a nice body?
Hm, that's nice.
Next.
The world is swirling around,
like a merry go round,
and all I wonder is
when the happy mask will fall off
and when the happy mask salesman will go,

Sleep Deprivation (String of Tanka)
Time is ticking by
And I am trap in this trance
Unable to move
From my sitting position
To get up and start moving
My mind is hazy
My chest feels heavy, burdened
For no known reason
Since waking up very late
On this rainy afternoon
After a long while
The old familiar feeling
Is back to trouble
My heart my mind and my spirit
With feelings of disquiet
I am overtaken
By sense of placidity
That has been hiding
In the shadow of daylight
Waiting for a chance to pounce
Sleep...
And I am trap in this trance
Unable to move
From my sitting position
To get up and start moving
My mind is hazy
My chest feels heavy, burdened
For no known reason
Since waking up very late
On this rainy afternoon
After a long while
The old familiar feeling
Is back to trouble
My heart my mind and my spirit
With feelings of disquiet
I am overtaken
By sense of placidity
That has been hiding
In the shadow of daylight
Waiting for a chance to pounce
Sleep...

Abrasive
I miss you my muse
My stubborn fork
With electric flowers
It has not been raining
It is dry here
Flowers do not grow without you
I wait
And wait
In vain
For a verse to flow
But it is all dry
And I am not high.
My stubborn fork
With electric flowers
It has not been raining
It is dry here
Flowers do not grow without you
I wait
And wait
In vain
For a verse to flow
