because some things must be spoken
I haven’t time for eloquence
Or poetic effort
In this moment
Just the same, I cannot have the sun set
With these thoughts unformed.
It not that I have fresh, new concepts
To relate
It’s simply that I’m full of feelings
Needing outlet
They’re not even fresh new feelings
Yet they do not weaken or subside
As does the light at dusk
Yes, they ebb and flow so slightly
As your streams of hope which feed
This sometimes gushing sometimes waning
River in my heart and mind—
A torrent of affection and desire...
Or poetic effort
In this moment
Just the same, I cannot have the sun set

Yet they do not weaken or subside
As does the light at dusk
Yes, they ebb and flow so slightly
As your streams of hope which feed
This sometimes gushing sometimes waning
River in my heart and mind—
A torrent of affection and desire...

Then She Reveals
I'm walking over to the door. I go to open it and she sits their beautiful with a smile. She says, Birchel thank u for understanding me and watching me as a show. I recognized her being 18 years of age. She speaks again, I'm 26 and want u to go to my prom in Bergzonia, Yugoslavia with me. This is why I keep entering thy dreams. I'm the real Sailor Moon. I skipped school from age 10 to 19 and finally got caught selling crack. I won the shoot out with the police. I got caught by Auntee Atilla the Hun. High School is great now, but, u I've been noticing.

I'm no damn Vampire, No damn Priest, Just Pragmatic and Horny
My muse thinks I've lost it
She isn't saying but i can read her
This vampire crap is just angry mosquitoes
Check out my ankles and hands, bring sunglasses
Forget religion and anything spiritual
Closest I come to spiritual is Old Forester 115 Proof
Translation: work with what you got, stop all the emoji bull
Sure one or two are funny, you know me, stop right there
Ok
Horny part, none of your damn business
I've done something none of you candy ass mofos could ever fathom
Still, it leaves me high and dry, bring me the crop...

A Voice Writing our Story
There's a kinetic energy
Between lovers
It's unspoken
It floats in aura
Supreme and unflinching
Bold but telling
There are things
I want to say them to you
But can't, so I write these poems
I'm around you on every corner
In your rear view mirror
A voice writing our story
Between lovers
It's unspoken
It floats in aura
Supreme and unflinching
Bold but telling
There are things
I want to say them to you
But can't, so I write these poems
I'm around you on every corner
In your rear view mirror
A voice writing our story

Nice is a Crash and Burn
Don't like to be to nice
That's a recipe to be taken for granted
No you say, not true
Jaded Scorpio New Yorker
Tell me another
Alternatively
Don't want to be a total prick
Maybe a partial
You seem to respect rough and ready
I know you, don't I
Maybe
Possibly
You're snarky
Cagey
Never totally in
Maybe just beer and chips
We can agree on that

Festival
Lost in the deep
Hissing off the pages
Summoned the pain
Out poured fiery hatred
It consumed life
Eyes showed me their faces
It struck at night
Heart locked in the basement
I was so amused
Struck frostbitten and worn
Revenge cold yet so warm
As it devoured my wounds
Hissing off the pages
Summoned the pain
Out poured fiery hatred
It consumed life
Eyes showed me their faces
It struck at night
Heart locked in the basement
I was so amused
Struck frostbitten and worn
Revenge cold yet so warm
As it devoured my wounds

My lunarian
Quit pumping placebo fears inside your little brain.
Sometimes I feel as if you are out of this world, yo know maybe lost in this race
with you i truly feel special my sweet lunarian
ready to give my soul and heart to you so you’d love me like the greatest man.
I am living in my moments, my heart is frivolous (giddy) and capricious (Bi-polar).
Your strong attachment to me is somewhat mysterious
Might even threaten my freedom, tedious bi curious
If we should be in a relationship someone heart might be broken ...

on rainbows & closets
Today we celebrated
Being true to self
With rainbow clothes & glam
Screamed cheers & dancing
We celebrated
Lesbians & gays
Bi, cis, trans & queer
Drag queens, doms
Body positivity in birthday suits
and every color of the rainbow
Every shade of skin tone
Latinos, Filipinos, blacks
and the rights of a person with a uterus
We celebrated pride
In oneself
We celebrated pure joy
As children danced in water fountains
With crowds of people all around
Who each believed that ...
