About This
So you've picked a poet.
For that, I will lift words
from your skin.
The ones never read,
so thoroughly.
I will place them
upon pages
again and again.
I will call them love poems.
And someday
when we are old
and our eyes fade,
like the memories sometimes do,
you can pull that book down.
Ask me, then, if I remember the words.
I will say how could I have forgotten them.
They are all still standing
in front of me.
Not one word, has ever left.
That book...

Puppetress
She turned her face to the summer sky
Sudden, how birds don't fly
Instead they hung from her humid strands
as she danced them, with her hands
Her hair curled on her heated brow
like crow wings in a feathered frown
Her face upturned in lit white gold
Her eyes, eyes!, were lightning bolts
She traced her shape with beams of sun
Cut her clothes, as the shadows run
And white, so white her chest
As if so new, as if just left
-There, by God, his second guess
To tease the sun and make it press
it's own...

"What would your superpower be?“
One morning,
while sitting crossed legged,
on second floor carpeted space.
I said
"I want to eat all the plastic
and turn it to fresh energy.
That would be my superpower."
And you said,
"I'd like to never die."
and he said
"I'd like to shoot electric fire beams,"
and another wanted gills,
and one wanted to control air,
and one wanted to be able to fly in it,
and one said their only power
would maybe be to be green
or perhaps to be invisible all together.
She and I smiled at each other, ...

Yesterday 9:39am
i still think of her
these times, late at night,
these sleepless
late at night times,
she comes visiting my mind,
wandering into
my memories, staying awhile,
i have tried my best
not to think of her each day
like i did for years before,
she has never aged, only
grown more beautiful to me,
i wonder if she knew how much
i wanted her, not necessarily
needing her, but wanting her,
whether it was lustful or
a need to make myself feel better
i cannot say for sure, but i wanted
to be with her,
being close to her made me...

Lollipop Tears
All of these things I give to you
In the world I’ve constructed for me and you
Moonbeams and buckets of sky
Blades of serenity and wondering why
Houses pitched on a deserts floor
The pain of forgetfulness and wanting more
Raincoats and fairytales wrapped up in string
The manicured nail at the end of a ring
Nothing makes sense this all needs repair
Dip inside your dreams and you will find me there
Offering comfort for all of your fears
As I kiss your eyes and your lollipop tears
In the world I’ve constructed for me and you
Moonbeams and buckets of sky
Blades of serenity and wondering why
Houses pitched on a deserts floor
The pain of forgetfulness and wanting more
Raincoats and fairytales wrapped up in string
The manicured nail at the end of a ring
Nothing makes sense this all needs repair
Dip inside your dreams and you will find me there
Offering comfort for all of your fears
As I kiss your eyes and your lollipop tears

roman concrete
From the start you knew who I was
Not good at telling lies to anyone but myself
No attempts were made to impress you
And it took you awhile to figure out my thoughts
I've no interest in money or status just stability
We're not a matching set, no fairytale in our love
We're far too pragmatic for that type of thing
I have unwavering faith in who you are
And you can trust I'll never use or hurt you
We're the kind to last even I can see that
I'll do anything to protect you in this life
I'm rough around the edges and grumpy from pain
You...

In Memoriam
If tomorrow were your last, would you be content?
Have you lived the life you wanted, free from regret?
Don't take for granted each and every day
Cherish the moments, make them worth the stay
Life is fleeting, like a passing breeze
It can be over before you know with ease
So make the most of the time you have
Live with purpose, be true to your path
Don't waste a single second on what could have been
Embrace the present, make the most of it, win
Carpe diem, seize the day, make it yours
Leave a legacy, open new doors
...

it is always you
and i love
to call your name
out loud, to the wind,
let your name drift
comfortably, treating
all that listen.
and my thoughts
of you, described
within my mind,
such beauty
overwhelming me,
surely a joy for those
that see you.
and to be with you,
those wonderful feelings
you provoke, i am emotional,
thoughts of you gentle
gathered within me,
feelings more wonderful
than poets conceive.
your name, i can share,
your beauty, it's a gift ...

drowning
and did you
really think
your kiss meant
anything?
do you think
i felt anything?
i felt total sensations
washing over me,
like waves,
pulling me under.
please,
kiss me again,
drown me.
really think

darklings
I'm at the height of my blooming
a blood orchid who was from the beginning
I carried you and gave you suckle
it is in me to be cruel
still I am born of mercy in the mortal realm
still desired at court
a Queen don't forget me
darkness revolve and involve yourself
my little darklings of the host
I love you true
rise knowing I ride the winds with you
I have your backdoor covered
coded is the wind...listen
run, quick see
an underworld over the oververse welcomes you
a blood orchid who was from the beginning
I carried you and gave you suckle
it is in me to be cruel
still I am born of mercy in the mortal realm
still desired at court
a Queen don't forget me
darkness revolve and involve yourself
my little darklings of the host
I love you true
rise knowing I ride the winds with you
I have your backdoor covered
coded is the wind...listen
run, quick see
an underworld over the oververse welcomes you

Sweet home
Been through Chicago.
Lived in New York.
My heart belongs to New Orleans.
Grew up on the ports.
Born in the Cut.
Grew up knowing how to claim mine.
Dirty south America.
Product of Ward 9.
