again I find myself coming forth from deep darkness and chains of guilt
no one can free me from my pain my scarred terrain is evident
I spent a millenia brewing you spent the centuries finding happiness
shining in the dark places it could be found
we are finally free together brother but it seems time has changed us both
you have so many places to be adoring faces to behold
still I find you coming here from time to time imploring why I don't join you
I consider it but your entourage makes it clear i'm suspect
even with the Father I am...

Feathers of the Same Bird
Feathers of the same bird,
One plucked at the tail and the other from the wing.
Singing the same song,
Falling at different speeds.
The tail feather glides gently down,
The wing feather flies with the bird just a moment longer.
The tail feather reaches the ground,
The wing feather peaks among the clouds.
They sing in harmony,
One soft and one powerful.
One escapes the nest,
The other clings to the side of its mother.
Why did the tail feather let itself fall amongst the leaves and sticks?
Why didn’t it fly alongside the...

Last House On the Right
There's a family at the end of the block
Inside the house the father is raping his son
The kid is screaming because it hurts
The house is burning with hot love
Daddy is now murdering this kid
It's Ok because it's not me

And it’s been a long ass week and I don’t know
It’s been a long week and I don’t know
how to show or where to put all of this
because stoicism
because my words fumble when
when
when I try to speak them into existence
and typing helps me ground the
things that seem to matter that I can’t say
all this rambling is my way of trying to find the way
the route to metaphor
I feel more than i want
and I don’t want to feel any of it
my oldest daughter rang me crying
her decisions have broken the links
between us
she live with feral people

Love Will Never Die
On the night my mom passed I had a dream. In my dream was this beautiful angel with large pink wings. The angel smiled and said to me, " dry your eyes child, your mom is tired and ready to go home." NO , I screamed, this is her home!
The angel replied - follow me, there's something I want you to see.
She pointed to the left and there stood my mom in a field of wildflowers. She looked so beautiful with long dark auburn hair and not a wrinkle did I see. My mom was smiling and talking with my grandma and grandpa, aunts and uncles and my brother Joe too.

Lu
pride cometh before the fall, and boy did I ever fall into your thrall again
Lu you always find me, in any outfit you know me, we are soulmated
together we are trouble
we are told, I was imprisoned you were let go that's what happened,
I heard
I'm suppose to live in the moment
and not listen you take over my thoughts
not of the ancient past
still. I keep recoiling from it
I love Him and I know you do too
but you've never done time in the containment unit
and you side with Him in private and with the men
He shames...

No One Stays Out Of The Family
This is
the house that
Guido
Costello once called
home before a thug
named Dominic The
Butcher
Costello
found him.

Angels
denying my pleasures of the flesh that I have oft indulged in
because I am reminded of my purpose yet again
on which I first embarked on with a vow
the men awaken me with truth
what's up man did you come just for the sex, drugs and rock n rolll
do you even really remember us yet?
shame fills my being and I remember our promise to each other
cursing at my guard while imprisoned I vowed
I would get even for this
admitting my fears I rise
beaten down while in confinement
and questioned night and day until my release

Brothers In Bond
entertaining the powers that be
they come to me to see what I'm made of
groaning from growing pains in the immortal sense
they won't pass me if I'm not up to snuff
exposing me to all kinds of trials
my witchiness must be sharp
a warrioress of the way
mock wars to ready one for the eventual
the man Himself says it's coming
preparing me he says it must be instinct like drawing a breath
no questions in the moment, respond
a weapon sure and deadly his people ready
we will take our opponent down
He has not revealed...

Thank You
I want to thank you for raising me.
I know you could have pushed me to the side,
And did things like all the other kids did.
I want to thank you for practicing wrestling moves on me.
It taught me how to defend myself.
That's why the streets didn't conquer me.
I want to thank you stepping in and taking moms place,
When I was scared and had nightmares.
You were always there to fight off my demons.
I want to thank you for teaching me,
How to open our hidden Christmas presents,
And wrapping them back up, ...
