Encroaching on My Pen
Shadows of debauchery descend, laughing
a coven of crones encroaching on my pen
dragging my naked alter-ego of madness
dripping red as the screams grow louder
to excommunicate the archive librarians
and burning the books, "Oh! Mairzy doats
and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey..."

Omens Stroked
Soliloquy thunder from the virtuosos
listening to echoes of the dark crows
with skeletal fingers in charcoal cloaks
Come cozy hail waltzing with the toes
of practiced scorn and omens stroked
listening to echoes of the dark crows
with skeletal fingers in charcoal cloaks
Come cozy hail waltzing with the toes
of practiced scorn and omens stroked

The Seamstress
We used to make potions
her and I
The tub would swell with bubbles
Emptied the shampoo bottles
and our cauldron overflowed
Now she mixes dirt with water
in a little plastic cap
and then sews it into blood embroidery
Sallow lace, scabbing eyelets
I ask if it hurts
If I could follow pains gradient
to back before she became a seamstress
and we were two little witches
stirring pink magic in our tub
she makes one more eyelet in her hand
it is a gaping mouth that speaks in her place
It tells me that one day all I will...

Her Silken Plum
Intimacy in a poetic embrace
from the inkwell's archives
consuming her ash
of smoldering desire...
exhaling
engulfing me with debauchery
into the forgotten intimacy
swallowing her breath
of decadent tongue
into her cold bloodstream
and the cauldron of her womb
melting the wax of my doom
into her silken plum
of the forbidden taste
where her flesh reigns
releasing a storm of oblivion
sealing my fate...

Now You Die
In the corner of my eye, whiskey rye
Black tie in Brunei on a twilight in July
Widow whispering, come to me, aye
With two fingers of sweet Mordecai
On my chest now rest the blowfly
Robbing me of my silver now you die
Until I cry and age in oak, by and by
With no more flesh given to fry

Cocooning
Lost in the vapors swooning
harnessed to be wed
soft breath on lurid thighs
haunting delirious chastity
with claustrophobic eyes
neath the tapestry on the bed
tamed by the flattery...

A Midnight Sonnet
i need you asphyxiated... emancipated...
finger-fucking a vibe...tunneled...pummeled...
collapsing headaches...home grown
moaning to my scripture...ripping off your alleged panties
your mound...petted...spanked
feel my verbiage seep...
deep inside your bone marrow....as a hieroglyphic rumor
spill out your sorrows...a howl from your hollows
thrusting hips to an imaginary sky...
i burrow past all the why's of your unspoken deity
stripped of your piety...silently...yet so loud...

Finding My Ego
Finding self among woolsy in the pelts of twilight
listening to the echoes of the coyote where the
crickets bow hungering for the flesh of broken-down
old poets dismembering the dawn with another
coyote song lighting the inferno with another
cigarette and a bottle of tequila

Insanely, Hamlet - with Everavalon
Testing positive for dark's gaffs
and the adjacent echoes fading
Misunderstood by the stench
Decadent ogre rising like a bisciuit
poetically free to be insanely Hamlet
Depending on how one butters it
investing in the negative guise
that wears one’s skin
Wagging at truth with crooked tongues
Sparing no mind to unwind these musings
to liquefy my thoughts
and paint these shaded walls
and the adjacent echoes fading
Misunderstood by the stench
Decadent ogre rising like a bisciuit
poetically free to be insanely Hamlet
Depending on how one butters it
investing in the negative guise
that wears one’s skin
Wagging at truth with crooked tongues
Sparing no mind to unwind these musings
to liquefy my thoughts
and paint these shaded walls

Crossed Divider
Lurking like the widowed spider
Wearing the dead man's skin
Shadows concealing all the fear
He has crossed the thick divider
Into the darkness deep inside her
Scratching poetry with a dry quill
With staves pulled from the garter
Unfinished words from the will
Wearing the dead man's skin
Shadows concealing all the fear
He has crossed the thick divider
Into the darkness deep inside her
Scratching poetry with a dry quill
With staves pulled from the garter
Unfinished words from the will

Deep State of Voodoo
A fair amount of hypocrites' dark winds
yesterday's clouds become shadows
turning into dramas possessing arrogance
and a sickening scent of moral decadence
in the mind's monsoons echoing larceny
for a moment's sheckles of doubloons
in a deep state of voodoo

Always in a daze
Always in a daze
I live the same routine over & over again
Wear that empty gaze
The one that keeps me
Sane!
Don't crucify me
You'll see
Inside I'm fragile....I'm weak
So much more to lose
if I don't try
But I cannot change
I'll just burn the ambition inside
Stared into a void
Of emptiness and a bitter feeling
Too much time alone
Leads me into darkness, dreaming
This road will take me nowhere
Suffocates my will
Today though, I will try again to be something I am not
I live the same routine over & over again
Wear that empty gaze
The one that keeps me
Sane!
Don't crucify me
You'll see
Inside I'm fragile....I'm weak
So much more to lose
if I don't try
But I cannot change
I'll just burn the ambition inside
Stared into a void
Of emptiness and a bitter feeling
Too much time alone
Leads me into darkness, dreaming
This road will take me nowhere
Suffocates my will
Today though, I will try again to be something I am not
