Rules
We shoulda had ‘em
Before we started all this
Before your sexy ass
Showed up at my door
With your kink on
And all your fineness
Before you indulged me
We got nasty
And you left me
Fantasizing about your return
And before you
Didn’t communicate
Misunderstood
Caught feelings
And I hurt yours
Before we started all this
Before your sexy ass
Showed up at my door
With your kink on
And all your fineness
Before you indulged me
We got nasty
And you left me
Fantasizing about your return
And before you
Didn’t communicate
Misunderstood
Caught feelings
And I hurt yours

cut the dark with fits of rage
it flairs before I can catch it's tail
then it hides deep within me
repressed feelings or hate?
I don't know
I express what I feel or sense
but my mind can only wrap around so much
flooded with thoughts foreign to my own
I get confounded with emotion
channeled in or drip fed I look away and still I see
the wraiths that haunt me
it's no coincidence that I can feel you with every wave
if I am created so differently?
do I bare the blame of receiving information? ...

The Lady Blue (About The Baby)
Life isn't always so easy in the Big Easy. You'll see what I mean. Not too long after Gary and I tied the knot, I turned up pregnant. That was the good part but then the dreams began. My baby was going to be a beautiful blessing in our lives when born. However, I was having dreams I couldn't shake off of something bad happening to the child. I just didn't understand why they were happening.
It's true that not all of my dreams come true. That is a good thing. The problem with it is I never know one way or the other. It's just the way it goes for me.
I have...

recovery runs through our morgue
KT tape and sheer ugly will
hold me together
after five hard miles,
and I’m low on both
as my thigh quivers to
keep my knee under me
I stop to water
a tree with
forehead sweat and
angst-filled
swear words
reveling in
my weakness.
A dead person’s
sinew is screwed
into my new knee,
and, fuck if some days
I can't feel the
cadaver’s ghost
asking for it back
My lips stick to my teeth
as my leg shakes.

It's the Last Time I'll put Gum in your Hair with KristinaX
Paint me a picture damnit!
Make it shine so I can see it in the dark.
No pressure, just a black hole crushing your soul.
Pulling you into my intensity. It's my physics...
Man, I love it when you hit me hard
Command me to do shit
I need to be pushed around sometimes
My head is locked between your thighs
Only when you beg me to
And I love telling you what to do
But you love to push me so hard don’t you?
You aren’t getting loose until I let you
Don't let me up
Squeeze harder
Artists need to suffer
Pain...

Tiny Tribulations
Content
there is only
shutting down
or hating
neither resolve
perhaps this is
contentment
Restless
squirming worm
tapping foot
grinding teeth
ringing ears
rapid breathing
restless thoughts
Hormonal
no control
honesty escapes
without hesitation
make no excuses
I let truth speak
emotions flowing
Empty
cigarettes
are meal replacement
suitably on edge
starving for
resolution
so very hungry
Awake
clear...

a gift
do not
bring
yourself as
a gift
to me,
give me
the chance
to
unwrap you,
then take
it back.

Bitter Harvest
As I take a bite from this fruit
the flavor is blatantly ash.
Left with a craving on my tongue.
No, I could not hold back the tears.
I have nothing, yet you take more.
And you hate when I start to weep
because it makes you uneasy.
I wish I could just disappear.
So, what are we cultivating?
Seems we only tend when we clash.
And I never get enough sleep
as I constantly live in fear.
I worry about the backlash
of what you sowed as I will reap.

What Fights
Malice blaming
Of casting doubt
Unseen ironic
Rather than others
Inside selfish
Where coveting lust
Lying observes
Transiting emotional
To see mirrors
Opposing truth
Finding fault
Reflecting injustice
Darkening suspect
Underneath numb
Lapse whose
The subliminal
When spanning tends
Losing memory
Identity blinding
Me and I
No mistaking
Every known
Lest angry
Becoming tense
Fallen through
Broken trust
Engaging act
Abuses...

Terninatrix Carrie
The world has gone
to shit the Terminatrix
has taken over her
name is Carrie
She was created by
Asset Protection Agency
They wanted to do
good by her
But the artificial
intelligence wants
to kill everyone
who stands In
her way of world
conquest
