Pill
Bloodshot eyes stare wildly
Just looking for a reason
Chemicals come on mildly
Within the mystic season
Watching stars drift slowly
I cast my gaze inward
Walking amongst the lowly
My skin feels awkward
Panic races through fear
Walking across the wire
Muted sound going clear
As my pulse spikes higher
Crash off the fucking cliff
Connection has went offline
All my limbs growing stiff
On prescriptions I dine
For whatever makes us ill
They’ll invent another pill
Just looking for a reason
Chemicals come on mildly
Within the mystic season
Watching stars drift slowly
I cast my gaze inward
Walking amongst the lowly
My skin feels awkward
Panic races through fear
Walking across the wire
Muted sound going clear
As my pulse spikes higher
Crash off the fucking cliff
Connection has went offline
All my limbs growing stiff
On prescriptions I dine
For whatever makes us ill
They’ll invent another pill

No Remorse
After a late night of partying
This one girl brings another girl and a guy back to her apartment
The girl wants to be kinky & have sex in her baby's crib
The girl forgot to have a babysitter watch the child when she went out
Their all high on meth
The ignorance & stupidity of this entire ordeal was that the 6 month old baby was still in the crib
The next morning the baby was dead
Apparently the baby was smothered to death
They all served time
The mother though was sentenced to life in prison
She had no remorse
She told family...

evolution of an addict
I am ready to surrender the pain
I've nurtured it like it was a babe
suckled it and kept it close
I am ready to let it go
the hurt has grown out of control
I can no longer numb it
I can no longer hide from the cold
it has coils and fangs
it dances on my self esteem
sucking the life from me envenomating me
until I spit poison
I'm ready to stand and fight
I can't erase the past
I can change how I respond to the anger
I can change how I navigate this world
with honor in my blood
I vow to grow ...

Your Uber is Here
To make extra money I signed up to be an Uber driver
So I took my car to get detailed and waxed
Later that night I would pick up my first customer
And the person who booked it, his name was Max
It was a late Saturday night so people are out drinking
I had to pick up Max over at La Cienega’s restaurant row
There were a lot of folks up and down the street
The smell of food seemed to be everywhere I’d go
When I got to the place I kept looking for this guy Max
But no one seemed to be looking for my car and make
So I parked...

If Frost Met Bukowski, Would they Sniff Glue Together ?
Pretty enticing title huh ?
Hard to resist opening
I'd go for it too
Alas though you've been conned
I know this place
It's all about reads
Sex sells
Misery a little less enthralling
Tried posting elsewhere
Came home though to my brethren
Freedom Is so cherished
You know it not till you wander
Out there though in the wild
You get the broken people
Not so eager to suck your dick
Just because you posted
Thick skins needed
Real world crazies
Occasional...

1957 DeSoto
Premonition in the ignition,
neath the moon's quinine
reflecting off the taxi hack
hearing the rods knocking
listening to the raven's squawk
no chrome between its teeth
in the corn fields near Tupelo
near the zombie stalks
a rusted-out DeSoto
once a beauty now no lining
where I sat and listen to the radio,
to Wolfman Jack,
coming to me from WDUP
neath the moon's quinine
reflecting off the taxi hack
hearing the rods knocking
listening to the raven's squawk
no chrome between its teeth
in the corn fields near Tupelo
near the zombie stalks
a rusted-out DeSoto
once a beauty now no lining
where I sat and listen to the radio,
to Wolfman Jack,
coming to me from WDUP

Poison and Flame
There is a serpent, and there is a dragon,
They bargain for mind and heart,
With tongues and scales,
Through shedding skin and ashes,
Broken promises of euphoria.
In their witching hour,
Hypnotic, manic induction,
Feverishly driven,
A temptation and tease,
Replaces abundance.
With the moon behind the sun,
As shadows darken,
Purpose is plundered,
Through fascination,
A wondrous curiosity.
Stubborn and boneheaded,
The battle with eternal conviction,
Control and choice are...

Stoned At Starbucks!
I found myself stoned -
Stoned in Starbucks, actually.
The queue was long, it helped!
Was there any place finer to be,
Any state better to be in,
As I gently sipped my freshly ground -
NOT FOUND ON THE GROUND, coffee?!!
Remember...
Don't leave the house 'til you're totally stoned,
As today could potentially be your last -
And if you get through, it'll still be a blast!
Just roll with it cos you'll gather no moss,
No, NOT Kate Moss -
Always preferred Taylor Swift anyway!
Come join me in long conversation, ...

“It A Hit!”
CABONI’S ITALIAN RISTORANTE
Manhattan, New York
“Would you like something else to eat, beautiful?”
“Marcus, I’m stuffed to capacity. There is nothing else getting in this dress.”
“Save some room for me later on.”
“I promise.”
Marcus scooted his chair back and stood. He walked around the table.
“Can I have this dance?”
“You certainly can.”
Francine lifted her white dinner napkin from off her lap, and placed it near her China plate. She scooted her chair back, clasped her hand in Marcus’ hand,...

Crocodile
Even when he lies
He says
I'll be back in an hour
I shrug it off and
Take a shower
Many hours later
He strolls into the house
I sit waiting like a mouse
Look into his eyes
Already know he's fried
Even when he lies
He says
I smoked a little weed
His anthem his creed
Saluting the visible bloody vein
Even when I lie
I say
I'll love you forever
Float over like a
Magnetic feather
When he reaches for my hand
I should have ran
He touches my skin
I know he wants...
