Bait
I don’t wait
So when I tell you
I’m cutting you off
I mean it
Block your number
Ignore you
When I see you
I don’t know you
But I watch you
Watching me
…
When you contact me
Three months later
With your new number
I take your calls
And texts
Your feeble attempts
To lure me
Into playing again
I’ve been so bored
I let you think
You have
The upper hand...

Pretty lies and convienent truths
Born into a realm where facades gleam and half-truths soothe,
Before 'mother' found form on my tongue, from her bosom I was removed.
At the tender age of eight, braided yarn in hand,
I unearthed secrets in those threads, a world unplanned.
By nine, my discoveries brought labels, harsh and cold,
Branded 'broken', a narrative unfairly told.
At eleven, within actual school walls I was set,
Solitude my prior tutor, with beasts and boughs my only bet.
Clueless in the art of mingling, a misfit in their space, ...

The Art Of The Deal IV (Stocks And Bonds)
RIVERALLS FRONT
New Haven, Connecticut
Early That Morning
Steffen was jolted out of a peaceful sleep. Someone was ringing the doorbell.
The sound echoed throughout the quiet atmosphere of the bedroom.
Steffen blindly reached out for Isabella. His arm came to rest on the cool surface of empty space. He threw the covers aside, and sat up.
Where was Isabella he thought?
Most likely in the shower, he mentally answered his own question.
Steffen walked into his bedroom, lifted his brown velour brown robe,...

The Art Of The Deal II (Probate Of The Heart)
WHEATFIELD ESTATES
Old Westbury, New York
Michael’s Residence
Michael threw his tie on the bed and ran over to his bedside nightstand. He lifted the telephone receiver and placed it up to his ear.
“Hello beautiful.”
No one responded.
“Hello.”
The telephone made a shrieking sound in his ear.
“Dammit!”
Michael slammed the telephone receiver back on the cradle.

THE TRUTH WILL HAVE YOU KILLED
Prior to Covid, I had a mental map of how society worked. Covid destroyed that picture. Covid revealed society as it really is and it’s shocking. Here's what I’ve learned about society for almost 4 years:
1. The ruling class is psychotic.
Bill Gates, Klaus Schwab, Albert Bourla etc. take delight in killing people, cause carnage just to overcome their own hedonistic adaptation, and are completely incapable of empathy or self-awareness. They have tremendous resources to shape society (and the technologies of persuasion have become incredibly powerful). But these people are...

WHAT THE f**k!! (Sex With Me Is So Amazing)
Sex with me is so amazing
Hey, I’m just Paraphrasing
However, I was listening to the artist, Rihanna singing this song
As the song kept plugging along
Not meaning to come on too strong
With respect do not get me wrong
I’ve often wondered, is sex of the body more powerful than sex of the mind
And no, I do not have a feminist ax to grind
I will choose my words on this topic and remain kind
Well, at best that I can

Assuaging His Hunger (The Art Of The Deal II)
HOTEL DE PARIS MONTE-CARLO
Monte Carlo, Monaco
Kincaid slipped into his black Kenneth Cole double-breast tuxedo jacket. He lifted his wallet from off the dresser and placed it inside his back pants pocket. He lifted his cell phone, slid it open, and dialed Shaylynn’s cell phone. Her cell phone instantly beeped.
“Fuck!”
Kincaid slid his cell phone close and slammed it down on the dresser.
Geoffrey peeped his head around the doorpost.
“Mr. Livoski, everyone is assembled and ready to head out.”

The Transparent Vestments of Narcissistic Indifference
Shackled on the cold hard stone of your mind,
welcoming the sacrificial knife, weeping as rituals steal my heart,
giving all for love
-
Priestess of the sun god of your need,
devout belief in the morality of your greed,
erecting a tower of skulls you are freed
-
Empathy and compassion do not worship Huitzilopochtli,
shapeshifting god once appearing as Gaia or Kali,
resplendent in the transparent vestments of your narcissistic indifference.

The Art Of The Deal
MANHATTAN, NEW YORK
Fifth Avenue
Artesia walked out of Fashion and Accessories Boutique.
She strolled to her two-seater convertible BMW, unlocked the door, and placed her shopping parcels on the passenger seat. She pushed the door close and walked around to the driver side of her vehicle. She opened the door, got in, and pulled the door close. She pulled the sun-visor down and looked at her reflection in the mirror. She touched her upswept hairstyle.
“Nice job Leslie.”
Artesia plugged the key inside the ignition, snapped her...

Deceivers
Hit me with your worse
While I’m still going strong
Hit me with a love that’s a curse
When life just can’t go wrong
I’ll be there before you can text
Although my phone is never on
Telepathy is how I connect
These feelings are just that strong
And I, I will do, I will do
Everything to and for you
I will wrestle with death
Until he has nothing but good health
Drain you of ego and fill you with myself
Although I’m a thousand miles away, you’ll swear I never left
Destiny says it’s you for...
