Fireflies of the Mind
"Hope is the last thing ever lost" - Italian proverb
Hope.
And what if it is lost.
Call to it to come back.
It will come even in the face
of terminal blackness.
Walk into the ravaging dark.
Fall apart so that you may find,
Those long lost moments that made you shine.
The fireflies of the mind.
That flashing glow somehow soothes
things gone out of control.
Save one in a jar in your soul.
Hope.
The magic light that ignites internal growth.
Hope.
And what if it is lost.
Call to it to come back.
It will come even in the face
of terminal blackness.
Walk into the ravaging dark.
Fall apart so that you may find,
Those long lost moments that made you shine.
The fireflies of the mind.
That flashing glow somehow soothes
things gone out of control.
Save one in a jar in your soul.
Hope.
The magic light that ignites internal growth.

Dreary Day
Overcast
All day
I remember my Mom
Latter years
She'd get so depressed
I'd try to cheer her up
Parkinsons Disease though
There was no cheering
Not even a chance
She was so stoic
Sucked it up
No choice
Today reminds me of those days
Pit of the stomach blues
I'll suck it up too
Go pet my dog
Maybe she'll lick my face
She's good like that
All day
I remember my Mom
Latter years
She'd get so depressed
I'd try to cheer her up
Parkinsons Disease though
There was no cheering
Not even a chance
She was so stoic
Sucked it up
No choice
Today reminds me of those days
Pit of the stomach blues
I'll suck it up too
Go pet my dog
Maybe she'll lick my face

Yesterday 11:33pm
She was heaven and she was hell
Feeling both blessed and cursed,
His heart aching with a mix of love and hurt.
She had left him shattered,
Her touch both a savior and a tormentor.
He closed his eyes and saw her face,
Her smile, her laughter, her grace.
But he also saw the pain she caused,
The way she left him feeling like a fool.
He wondered if he would ever be free,
From the hold she had on him so deeply.
He knew that he loved her still,
But he also knew that she could kill.
He got out of bed and walked to the window,
Looking out at the...
His heart aching with a mix of love and hurt.

The way she left him feeling like a fool.

INSPIRED BY 'PRIMAL NEEDS'
I drive you hard against the wall,
my tool nails you, I give you all
the naked lust, that's been pent up
In clothed chaste daytime, like a tup.
We're both in unshamed nakedness,
you smell of your wet readiness.
Like a dog with an on-heat bitch,
my lust is roused to fever pitch.
You confided your inner need
and your yearning to do the deed,
Taking a submissive part
as I drive your long legs apart.
A deed where there's no lying back,
No leisured fumbling in the sack.
Like steel when it is...
my tool nails you, I give you all
the naked lust, that's been pent up
In clothed chaste daytime, like a tup.
We're both in unshamed nakedness,
you smell of your wet readiness.
Like a dog with an on-heat bitch,
my lust is roused to fever pitch.
You confided your inner need
and your yearning to do the deed,
Taking a submissive part
as I drive your long legs apart.
A deed where there's no lying back,
No leisured fumbling in the sack.
Like steel when it is...

I am the Rose
My body is filled with roses
cut me and you will see
touch a drop of my blood
the color of red roses it will be.
For each drop that you touch
a rose will form in your hand
rose petals as red as blood
for a red rose is what I am.
cut me and you will see
touch a drop of my blood
the color of red roses it will be.
For each drop that you touch
a rose will form in your hand
rose petals as red as blood
for a red rose is what I am.

Bet Your Bottom Dollar
Twist the knife deeper darlin
I don't feel your prick
you dig and don't touch the scars you left
Lingering in the shadows
with darkness sickness
invading the semblance of normalcy
with your fallic symbolism
Little boy with mommy issues
can't take the heat have to blame everyone else
for your family neurocy
Pick up a blade now and cut me
I'm prepared for more than you have to offer
I've loved you blindly
I loved your family
you think to inherit
you money grubber
Keep your...

these scars
and
i traced
her scars
with
my fingertips,
draped over
her skin,
i love
the conversation
we have,
it's like
reading braille,
i do not
really
know her,
afterwards
as i breathe
in her scent
from
my hands,
her past
tasting
like my scars.

Methadone My Lady (It’s Free)
You have bowed enough to a man, get up off your knees
At..at.. what is Hades’ magic word, and it ain’t please
Until you remember it get back down on all fours until the sun eclipses the moon at ninety degrees
You came into my realm to seek that ultimate high
What are you willing to sacrifice besides your worthless life
It's nothing more sickening than a mother who leaves a wild child to the wolves tossed out like trash in the wind
An undeveloped brain that cannot compute in the real world, drop the act, blue-eyed devil, I...

it was the
false statement
made
with false smile
at the fasle time
under the false moon
to rime black dreams
to break his silence
to make me silent..

one night stand...
in the porcelain twilight dark flambe
amidst broken bottles & cigarette remains
pressed hard against shadowed stoop
pale flesh scarlet-kissed
burnished by glow of harlot light
ivory shoulders bared to night
skirt raised to bare a scandalous thigh
darkened marks adorn in handprint pattern
where desperate fingers eagerly traveled
wine-stained sighs & lusty growls
a single thumb resting upon racing pulse
as rhythm matches hungry thrust
claws rake as teeth sink deeply
one feeds passion
the other drinks freely ...

Dark Angels
Darks Angels are coming
to help us
fight the devil's forces
because we have
been treating the
Earth as our toilet
Now we fight to
clean up the Earth
to destroy the
Devil's Forces but it's
very difficult cause
they are very hot
women that are
trying to lead us
into their sin
to help us
fight the devil's forces
because we have
been treating the
Earth as our toilet
Now we fight to
clean up the Earth
to destroy the
Devil's Forces but it's
very difficult cause
they are very hot
women that are
trying to lead us
into their sin

Standing at the gates of Hell
Your house sits on Mount Hermon.
Drinking blood with me from a wine glass.
Sharing pain and suffering sip after sip.
Becoming one soul in that moment.
Fallen angels breaking free from bondage.
Seeing how far and fast we can fall,
once the chains were removed.
Black wings in a transfiguration.
Displaying the most magnificent sins.
Steeped in sorrow and sadness.
The Watchers, no longer just watching.
So seduced by mortal witches.
Seeing heaven as a prison.
Needing this never-ending strife.
That only a young...
Drinking blood with me from a wine glass.
Sharing pain and suffering sip after sip.
Becoming one soul in that moment.
Fallen angels breaking free from bondage.
Seeing how far and fast we can fall,
once the chains were removed.
Black wings in a transfiguration.
Displaying the most magnificent sins.
Steeped in sorrow and sadness.
The Watchers, no longer just watching.
So seduced by mortal witches.
Seeing heaven as a prison.
Needing this never-ending strife.
