MAGA Paleolithicus
They were an undiscovered type of ape
living among us in truck stops and bars
where there was no acceptable escape
from substance abuse and loud guitars,
and thus they had no complete trains of thought
to mollify the beast in beasty mode
where pride soon saw that they remained untaught
except for using congress as a commode
rather than for tutored parlance, as meant,
and so turbulence ruled MAGA hearts,
so much so, that the jargon which they spent
made less sense...

Ravish me with poetry
You hurt me with words,
more furious day by day
Come on, violate me with poetry!
Verses of my soul!
Come on, devote a few more lines,
Tie me tight to the bed!
For this, listen, there is always time
For this I will not be ...
Come on, just a few more lines,
I really love your torture,
the whip of your verses
Ravish me with poetry
more furious day by day
Come on, violate me with poetry!
Verses of my soul!
Come on, devote a few more lines,
Tie me tight to the bed!
For this, listen, there is always time
For this I will not be ...
Come on, just a few more lines,
I really love your torture,
the whip of your verses
Ravish me with poetry

Help me
My mind is my enemy.
I cant stop remembering.
The past, the present
Thats all i think.
Nothing wont let me,
Draw a blank.
Im not where i thought id be
Alone with all my misery
Please help,
Im just suffering.
I wish i couldnt feel anything.
I cant stop remembering.
The past, the present
Thats all i think.
Nothing wont let me,
Draw a blank.
Im not where i thought id be
Alone with all my misery
Please help,
Im just suffering.
I wish i couldnt feel anything.

Aching through Eternity
Aching through eternity.
How can you feel so heavy
yet so empty?
Simultaneously.
Stone lead hearts
and soul black holes.
Trees ache for the riot
of supple leaves.
Aching wants
are not aching needs
I acutely ache for the return of me.
Empty deny's aching to be full.
My heavy thoughts dream
of veins of empty peace.
Nature's beauty aches to be.
Every single ache,
is a different want and a
different need.
How can you feel so heavy
yet so empty?
Simultaneously.
Stone lead hearts
and soul black holes.
Trees ache for the riot
of supple leaves.
Aching wants

Empty deny's aching to be full.
My heavy thoughts dream
of veins of empty peace.
Nature's beauty aches to be.
Every single ache,
is a different want and a
different need.

Burned
Sunday afternoon
is horrible
the sun is shining
friends are calling
but with your ADHD
lesson plans take a long time
and you're two weeks behind on grading
and of yeah
you have three test administrator training modules to do
you have housework to finish too
you're trying to do it quickly
steam is billowing
from your new electric kettle
a cup of ginger tea
will be soothing
mind on anything
but the present moment
you reach for an upper cupboard
too close to the billowing...

The Feeling of Lost
I watched another sun come up
And another sun has set
As shadows lengthen into the night
But nights no darker than the day
And my life
Both good and bad
Lies wasted in the stain
The feeling of lost
Which cradles me now in emptiness
And for what?
For saying I wanted to be kissed as if this was our last breath
For wanting to be part of us
And not a me and you
For wanting warmth and not just a body
Lying beside me in the bed
*
...

let’s not go out
harder to walk than it used to
be easy going into town holds few attractions for me now, I would
rather stay in tonight

new year (same issues)
here
it is,
a brand
new year,
and
unfortunately
i carried
with me
now
the same
pain that
i had
hoped
to leave
behind
with the
old year.

you're just a stain, not a picture
You walk in
get under my skin
come on, manipulate me, boy
My soul still crawls with the memories
of when you tried to take a bite
how did I taste, boy?
was it fucking worth it?
how does shame feel, now, boy?
has it been so long you forgot?
Did you want to break me?
(I think you wanted to break me)
'cause you didn't break me
I've been murdered
by more skilled lovers than you
and your memory is more
of a shit stain
than a tortured work of art
You walk in
get under my skin ...
