She calls him her boyfriend, he calls her to f**k
She likes him because she could see his deep-seeded hatred for women
Every time they have sex, he thought of himself as some kind of slick con-man, managing to talk his way into her panties
He feels like a safe cracker
He knows this is his game and he's in complete control
He only visits her at her place
She's never been to his place, let alone not even sure on what town he lives in
He never bothers to ask her for her name or even age
He's been seeing her for about 4 years
She has no friends and no one she can trust, except him
She has a child who...

New Kinda Down
Heavy handed often hard headed
Hot wire without a ground
Premium alcohol is now unleaded
Until insanity comes around
Digging deeper into violent acts
Rapid pulse beating hard
Money trumps stone cold facts
Another blatant disregard
Seems the world got the blues
Everyone wears a frown
Read the book missed the clues

Leaving You
I tried to tell you so many times
I tried to put it so you would understand in rhyme
The best I can do is to say it straight
I hate to put more on your plate
My heart is not in what we have
Please don't cry, this is going bad
I tried to tell you so many times
I said and did things, but you were blind
You would have left me if it was the other way around
please do not crumble to the ground
My bags are packed no need for me to stay
I cannot bare to see you this way
You can hate me, curse me, do what...

come hither
come lovely one, come out of your hiding place
within the caress, there are shadows and lace
resist a reason you love who you love
cruelty is satisfaction with linear thoughts
you reside in the heavens
then burn upon entry
entering into a vow I know you'll keep it
Your star has always shone the brightest
now it is a flicker in the wind
collect your sea shells
open your mind
stifling my feelings
tears swell my chest
and I am alone again
hopscotch and hide and seek
scaring the restless spirits...

Life; A Cameo Appearance..
Honnie Bonnie Honey Canberry..
I shan't ask you politely next time who is my attorney?..
Who never goes astray?
Who don't know what pain is?..
Show me who never fall a sleep?..
Show me who never fall sick?..
Show me who's never in need of something..
This life that we live is just a cameo..
Like the Capulet's on Romeo.. Montague's on Juliet..
My attention soon captured by the sensations of the airy omelet..
Can't beat this hullabaloo..

Syllabus
I deny nothing—
which fills me
with experience:
Love, hate, jealousy
greed, gluttony, lust—
murderous thoughts;
suicide, shame, surrender
I welcome those that come
offer tea, also time;
realize I'm learning—
so heed their syllabus
Sometimes it took weeks

Submission of love
When we give someone our love with our submission, we give them apart of us in ways, that requires honesty and truth and trust. For sure it's not a debate, nor is it is not something to be taken, for granted by no means of deception and lies and false promises, that they want you to believe. 🤔 For sure in order for it to work, we must have a serious commitment with real consistency and real communications skills. TO articulate what we are doing and saying, by letting my actions speak louder than my words. For above all I'm not coming through the 🚪 door, I'm coming doing what I...

Goodbye Summer
She tested us
Every way she could
Burned us to the ground
Sweat, humidity and frowns
That damn sun
Relentless
Long evenings
Moon lit calls
Walking with you
Sweet summer
Margaritas by the seaside
Lust in the air
No cares
Too hot
Too much rain
Too much traffic
Too much
It goes fast
Somewhere in August
Knowing this will end soon
Labor Day
Last call
We love summer
Hate the heat
Complaints
Melancholy has a way
Autumn on the horizon
Damn pumpkin...

Cruising The Death of Time
There is a desolate highway
that cuts through
my mind's haunting pines.
A scull and crossbone
on the exit sign.
Through rugged terrain
of yesterday's.
Counting the monotonous lines.
Driving back
through the death of time.
Cruising to days
you perished being mine.
Back to you holding my hand,
absolutely inconceivable,
you would ever let go.
It's heart tugging to visit
those memories now,
the heart still gives,
a phantom swell.
I drove back
and parked in tomorrow.
Into the deep...
that cuts through
my mind's haunting pines.

through the death of time.

you perished being mine.
Back to you holding my hand,
absolutely inconceivable,
you would ever let go.
It's heart tugging to visit
those memories now,
the heart still gives,
a phantom swell.
I drove back
and parked in tomorrow.

unexplainable draw
Beneath the surface
there's a blackhole of secrets
where trust was devoured
by the gravity of lies.
A smile, a porcelain mask,
delicate and fragile,
concealing the cracks
of betrayal beneath.
Each word spoken,
an origami fold,
Intricate and beautiful.
Battles within the hearts.
Yet a cuckoo's call
that echoed
as the whirlpool's pull
became too strong to resist.

frost watch
instinct keeps me poised
eyes darting
hovering near the shadows
always an exit within reach
winds can turn bitter
...with little warning
chilling to the bones
& I am...
deeply susceptible
...to cold
