Spite.
A buddy here asked
for the real photos of me
because I talk a big game
And I insisted that every
fucking picture I posted
was really me.
And they are.
Run through AI.
My best friend/brother
is a hair stylist,
and his husband is

and they have
a boudoir salon in
their garage.
I helped paint it.

The Lady Blue (Wedding Bells)
The next morning, I didn't get home until 7:00 a.m. I knew Joe would most likely be up having his morning coffee. I was afraid to go inside because I knew he was going to confront me about my staying out all night. I knew Joe would be upset but I didn't see what was about to happen.
As soon as I got inside, I saw that he was putting his belongings in a big box that he'd place on the floor next to his favorite chair.
"Where you been all night?" He asked, but before I could answer, he raised one hand to stop me, then said. "No. Don't tell me. Let me...

It doesn't matter
I would tell you how i feel
But it doesn't matter
To be here in this moment
But it doesn't matter
To feel like my heart is being torn from my chest
But it doesn't matter
To be screaming on the inside not wanting to experience this death
But it doesn't matter
I could tell you how much you sharing your life with me has meant
But it doesn't matter
How the thought of living without you feels like a fate worse than death
But it doesn't matter
I can reveal to you that I am scared moreso than I have ever been in my life
But it doesn't...

Oh So You Love Me Huh?
When I hear the word 'love'
I run.
Not physically, maybe yes
But mentally I evade, disappear, compulse into a fit
Die a thousand miserable deaths.
It's having every glass around me shatter into a million pieces aimed at and racing into my direction.
Cutting, piercing, lunging through my flesh
Cause 'love ' that word is my trigger
A ticking time bomb buried so deep in my subconscious
I don't even think of it.
But you said it,
I love you, I've fallen for you, blah blah blah
Then I begin to sink
Into a whirl pool of my...

Damaged Goods
her body language said it all
she wanted to stay..
and if truth be told...i wanted her to stay
but while sticking to the truth
i knew we were two strays
seeking some form of...redemption..
maybe that's not the best word
but it's all this shell of a man can spare in this moment
fresh of the break up with my daughter's mother
all i could do was drink party and drown my failures
in Seagram's Gin, loud music and new pussy..
fucking for the sake of forgetfulness..

f**king say goodbye
Why couldn't you give my
maimed heart
a last bit of
romantic dross
to hold on to?
I’m tired of wanting
and hurting
and hating
I don’t want to be in this cycle
this spiral
this train-fucking wreck of a mind
I want you to man the fuck up
and leave me with some dignity
like the good guy you say you are
I want to stand in flowy dress
on a hill and watch you
walk away with my lips still
blistered from our last kiss
I want to step in your arms
one more time...

Musing Obsidian
I gave you grace...a chance to salvage face
you met me in the midst of my fuckery
I wanted to love you..ego-tripped over all of your red flags
spooned fed you liquored pints of transparency...
a chance to peer beyond my shadows
boldly hidden in plain sight
but your presumptuousness overlooked my djinnis
cuz you wanted what you wanted
never concerned yourself about my whispers and dreams
you decided instead to snoop thru my phone
and create your own narrative

The Voyage
The day we met was the moment the ducks aligned on the water
A setting sun in the background, hues of blue and purple faded now
I didn't know that my heart would fall and drown in a crazy wreckage
The image of tomorrow has a faint shadow of you beside me in my head
I know that you will not be there with me as I move forward in the future
Devastating as that sounds, there is no path unless I love myself before you
Before it was so easy to find my way because I flowed like a boat trapped on currents
I did not fight it nor did I release...

Wine Glass
For when I had you in my span of motion, my present felt like a thousand new neurons popping every moment
Excitement in my belly welling up to every nerve ending bringing all of my emotions into the physical
For having you in my felt like a thousand bombs could explode corroding the very being of existence...
That we could be okay under all circumstances that holding tightly to the love we shared would win all
Pulling away from me felt like a time bomb ticking ready to tear my entire being into large jagged parts
The anxiety thinking everything was fine because...

Living Alone In a Relationship
Living alone in a relationship
Not something I envisioned
You living there, me here
Is great sometimes
But not great most times
At least it wasn't for me.
I missed you here
I missed sitting next to you
I missed touching you
I missed us.
I don't understand why
It was so horrible
For you living in my home.
You did tell me several times
You really did not
Want me touching you.
So I sort of said
Ok, well then ok.
Fuck it.
I got really good
At masturbating.

Straw Paper
Verse 1
Midnight, the city is cold and still
trying to sit here and get my fill
on the stale coffee and cigarettes
as the waitress places her bets
am I or am I not a big tipper?
I'm only here to remember you, little dipper
the burning star in my midnight sky
the one who said goodbye
Chorus
It was cold when we met, cold so cold
yet you were so warm, so warm to hold
I begged and begged for God to...

Morning Song
Morning Song
Verse 1) In the quiet of the morning when the sky begins to glow,
I find pleasure in your laughter, and melodies as they flow.
Your voice, a gentle whisper, like a soothing, summer breeze,
It echoes through my heart and puts my mind at ease.
(Chorus) Oh, your laughter is a symphony that dances in the air,
Your words, they are a serenade, for love beyond compare.
On the canvas of your beauty, I find my favorite view,
In the sanctuary of your love, this time forever true.
(Verse 2) As daylight paints the canvas,...
