Got the wind knocked from my atmosphere
I fell from a tree as
a little girl and landed
on my back, mostly unharmed
but for about 15 seconds the wind
was knocked out of me as
I laid staring at the blue sky
neck cording as I tried to inhale
against deflated lungs
it was momentarily terrifying
tonight I fall
face first from
your skyscraper
and land in the
grass over the septic tank
my hands dig divots in the ground
mouth open-jawed
eating
into the earth,
a rictus of terror
as my pupils pinpoint
and...

A Million Quills
When my heart broke I felt a deep seeded need to bleed
So my veins supplied the ink to write a verse
Through a million quills I dropped notions onto the page
With all the rage my soul could roar saying, this hurts
But it wasn’t enough, I wanted to dye and delve even further
Deeper into the colors of emotion and the far unknown
To paint the pain with texts and flames to somehow explain
Why I was torn at the core when I could feel it in my bones
So I travelled through what must’ve been a thousand years
Explored worlds and realms that...

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...

you perished being mine.
Back to you holding my hand,

Emo-tion
Your many shades of emo
tickle my ego
tangle with my id,
make me feel known
and shown
that my deep thoughts
are not mine alone,
but expressions
of an essence
shared among equals
uniquely
…universal
Let’s work towards reversal
of the hate
that separates
let’s make waves
of misbehave-your
scandalous kindness
like-mindedness
expanding into blindness
of unity
Give me your authenticity
no duplicity
referred pleasure stirred
by your words

Tap Out
Close your eyes, reach out and feel me, feel my fire
Can I make sweet love to your mind handsome, I’ve been thinking of you, about you
As you sit in front of your computer ravishing and seducing my mind
My soft hazel eyes drinking in the elixir of your darken passion
It’s about time you reach out to me to feel my sweetest essence
Umm, imagining my soft hands gliding over your chest wall
My tongue following the path up to your neck, up your bearded chin
Whispering in your ear, “you like that”
Kissing you behind your ear lobe ...

The Throb Beneath
I've gotten way more sex
by being an asshole than being a gentleman
so what's the impetus to be better
when I know my toxicity is a
secret turn on for you
secreted between thighs and all those midnight sighs
I creep and seep in spaces where your Rose
and chocolate 10 inch dildos
could never fulfill the Musk of my Masculinity
cuz God doesn't make replacement parts
objectifying acts until emotions come into play
thus the dearly departed we've become
when things don't work out...

Do not take relief upon innocent people's grief
Addiction is not only being slave to drugs, under cocaine control, or beneath a boss's hand kowtowing like a meek sheep, enslaved to their swaying stick, to their whims and extravagant desires, to look like a tamed animal,, you may also fall into slavery being a dependently addicted user, when those drugs, those psychedelics like LSD or mescaline, assail your whole attention, play on your real optical visions, give you a negative feedback on the world around you, affect your life for the worst, make of you an object of...

Triggered
four of us teachers were talking
we rarely have time to do that
we never even use the teachers lounge
too busy making copies and calling parents
two of the teachers were male
both admitted their students have seen them cry this year
mine haven't
amazing
i'm a huge effing crybaby
but i've chosen anger instead
it's closer to the surface
a quicker-burning fuel
it doesn't make me feel as deeply

Burning Light
My Light burns with
desire to find the woman
who makes your heart beat
for her and who
challenges me to
become a better
version of myself
Once we find each other
we push each other
to become better
versions of ourselves
we support each other
we help each other
we will love
each other
for the rest of our lives
desire to find the woman
who makes your heart beat
for her and who
challenges me to
become a better
version of myself
Once we find each other
we push each other
to become better
versions of ourselves
we support each other
we help each other
we will love
each other
for the rest of our lives

so live carefully!!!
A small heart
and thousands of wishes
n when the mind joins together
desires diminish and
stubbornness increases.

I Will Come Back
in nature's hatbox with my wandering pen
Whispering life's innuendoes with memories
and forget-me-nots, "mouse's ears"
From the gurgling creek of mint julep's sleep
as shadows streak across the bye and bye
With the glory of moments ago flashing neon
in a seance with a spiritual quest in dreams
Now come to me rolled-in bagel and doubled
down echoes of strapless stilettos
Listening to the stillness forever in silence
Whispering life's innuendoes with memories
and forget-me-nots, "mouse's ears"
From the gurgling creek of mint julep's sleep
as shadows streak across the bye and bye
With the glory of moments ago flashing neon
in a seance with a spiritual quest in dreams
Now come to me rolled-in bagel and doubled
down echoes of strapless stilettos
Listening to the stillness forever in silence
