Black Cherry Vet
I’ve got miles and miles of heart
I’m going to live forever
But I’ve gotta take a step back
Before you kill me
Invisibility whispers doubt
Tempting a pointless race
From your mirror eyes
Without my reflection
Speeding away in my Black Cherry Vet
Music’s blazing trying to forget
Top down Black Cherry hair
Flying high whipping all around
Holding hands with the open road
Merging into the night
Cause I don’t want to fight
Got whiskey and coke on ice
Poured into my glass cup
Topped off at...

easy way to piss off a lover ( or that seemingly innocuous moment just before a relationship ends)
it had been a difficult
couple of days in
our relationship
one night my lover
asked me
(demanded actually)
"What is it YOU want!"
and i responded
"The Collective Short
Stories of R. Carver."
and my lover yelled,
"WHAT THE HELL KIND
OF ANSWER IS THAT!"
"AND WHAT ABOUT
ME!"
and i said,
"Oh? Do you like ...

Promise
The next one to fall short,
I will not wait til it adds up,
I’ll be out, steering clear…
Leaving him in the dust.
No more loving potential…
Because it’s the potential to be disappointed…
No more waiting for promised to be fulfilled…
No more waiting for it all to be worth it.
My hearts been scarred and bruised,
But that’s partially my fault…
My fault for settling,
Turning a blind eye,
& Feeling bad for having my own flaws.
No more settling for the anxiety…
No more chasing
Because it’s beneath me…
No more work...
I will not wait til it adds up,
I’ll be out, steering clear…
Leaving him in the dust.
No more loving potential…
Because it’s the potential to be disappointed…
No more waiting for promised to be fulfilled…
No more waiting for it all to be worth it.
My hearts been scarred and bruised,
But that’s partially my fault…
My fault for settling,
Turning a blind eye,
& Feeling bad for having my own flaws.
No more settling for the anxiety…
No more chasing
Because it’s beneath me…
No more work...

Coming towards the light
Wrapped in the reaming
red rustic
ribbons of right and
wrong ,but as
our lives tragically
tremble along
towards their end .
All those
antipathetic
thoughts begin
to brashly
bleed and blend.
Their overwhelming
oceans of
numbing neurotic
notions into
one vital
viewpoint of
vulnerability.
Where they
rationally rush
towards their
ruptured
realizations
that there’s no
need to proceed
in the fight .
As they’ve finally
seen the light.

Out of Sight, Out of Time
For all I think I've learned
of love
a forever unanswered question
remains
what does it means when it comes from you?
Those words that once flowed easily
from your lips
now dammed somewhere beneath your larynx
in your time-honored farce
that silence drowns what's left unsaid
So, here we are
again
in the vortex
of our beautiful oblivion
those precious parts we chucked
into the jar
pressed puree without the lid on
splattering everything that ever mattered
with persistent stains
of love
a forever unanswered question
remains
what does it means when it comes from you?
Those words that once flowed easily
from your lips
now dammed somewhere beneath your larynx
in your time-honored farce
that silence drowns what's left unsaid
So, here we are
again
in the vortex
of our beautiful oblivion

Spanish Cedar Boxes
Living in a
Procrastic Nation
with lots of problems
And I don't really
want to solve them
Got thousands of closets
in my head
Where all my
Spanish Cedar Boxes
go instead
Because I want
do more than survive
I want to strive
for my best
Pandora Life
I'll deal with the
Boxes when I'm dead
Avoidance is my virus
with no cure
Zeus tried twice
so I'm sure
That's okay with me
Don't want to deal
With all of
My tragedies
Pressing on
My arteries

Synthetic Lockdown
Conceptual fragility; the seducer of worth
Health be thy wisdom or salt of the earth
My essence, asunder; purveyor of faith
Evil seeps under exposing the wraith
Sanctity of division; a studious mile
Friends turned to enemies; rationale is on trial
Ignorance, a plenty. Devotion a must
It leads with red fury. They follow with lust
Upon its heels, they are amorous. They give all of their soul
But it mechanizes them. It gains full control
I ask them to research. I ask how it came
They look at me bleeding, yet feeling no shame ...
Health be thy wisdom or salt of the earth

Evil seeps under exposing the wraith
Sanctity of division; a studious mile

It leads with red fury. They follow with lust
Upon its heels, they are amorous. They give all of their soul
But it mechanizes them. It gains full control

stained palms and fractured trust
never ceases to amaze me
how easy it is to break trust
such a fragile little thing trust is
at times it feels as if people enjoy it
taking a fragile trust and crushing it
a little kid gets the same enjoyment
from crushing flowers to stain their palms
some people just want to cause pain

Below the surface
Where once there was harshness,
compassion now flows.
Where once I sensed sharpness,
a golden heart shows.
But the critical spirit—
I wonder who knows?
compassion now flows.
Where once I sensed sharpness,
a golden heart shows.
But the critical spirit—
I wonder who knows?
