I Don't Need You
Will you release my brain? It needs parole
Please set me free, from your mind control
I don't need you, to read me, the riot act
I don't need you, to feed me, a counter fact
Get out of my face, for it's mine, not yours
You don't need to know, about my idle cause
I don't need you, to quell me, to be strung along
I don't need you to tell me what's right from wrong
Go and lead the sheep, of every brainwashed flock
But I want no part, of your vast, malevolent bloc
I don't need you to see me with your soulless eyes
I don't need...

Huckleberry, Cherry, or Mime
"Huckleberry, cherry, or lime
but the lollipop is mine..."
Mosh pit of a derelict mime
old generic lip-syncing fool
Synchronizing doing push-ups
on his Kawasaki taking selfies
Hearing voices of Testosterone
tonguing narcissistic lollipop...
"But the lollipop is mine..."

The Hollow Chalice
The Hollow Chalice echoes roam
The river flows, but I am bone,
A vessel cracked, alone, alone.
I search the skies, but find no dome
The stars are ash, and ash is home.
The sickle swings but strikes no fruit,
The root is dust, the seed is mute.
You walk the earth with silver boot,
Yet tread on thorns, yet taste the soot.
To love and die, to die and love,
Is it not the same, to writhe and shove?
In death’s embrace, we mourn the dove
A coldness hums, the song above.
The mirror cracks, the face is gone,

don't look down, you might find a mirror
You walk around these streets
like you didn't come from nothing
like there's no ghetto left
in your veins
You asked me if I saw the junkie's
with a new born that just moved in
a few doors down
I know who you're talking about
but I didn't look at them
and think "junkie"
when I saw them
And maybe I'm the one who's naive
or maybe I don't look at poverty
and think they must be drug addicts
because you don't need to be poor
to have problems
you just have to be poor with problems ...

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.

Drag Queens and Blue Eyed Jesus
Here we are banning books about Rosa Parks
while the Pastor dresses in drag on Sunday
spewing a sermon of love that sounds more like hate
then goes home to berate his wife and children
but that's o.k. he asked for forgiveness
so next Sunday he'll expose the evils of bourbon
white Jesus with his flowing locks and blue eyes
carrying all his divine interventions
can't seem to rise above it all ...

Counting the Pralines
In my perversion, unkempt curator of soul
half-assed abstract fetish for obscenity
Hanging by the pen's loose thread
dredging in my polluted caffeine
Just a little bit eccentric
but who is counting the pralines
Bringing misery to the profane insomniacs
beneath their narcissistic rainbows
Gathering loose-wrapped Pick-Up-Sticks
envious trolls thinking they are corndogs
But! Who is counting the pralines?

Trestles
Trestles of my mind on tabletops
Supporting the timbers of my soul
That lingers the honey whiskey
When twilight doesn't come easy
As the trolls rattle the legs
Qf society and no one cares...
Until they tear the anthem down
Supporting the timbers of my soul
That lingers the honey whiskey
When twilight doesn't come easy
As the trolls rattle the legs
Qf society and no one cares...
Until they tear the anthem down

get off my sourdough
Narcissistic imbecile nullifying
Novocain needle manipulating masses
with swollen cerebellum of embroidered ego
and terminal testicles awash in tequila
a turd today a rigor tomorrow where limboed
souls congregate awaiting fate in a cold morgue...
"stop messing with my sourdough"

Rorschach Zombie
Song of a rotting corpse in psychoanalysis
a narcissistic dreamer with an outburst of
mania with a cracked mind, hoosegow, decaying
antiquated parrot wanting a cracker with
a hideous impersonation of being human with
a leprous mask, stinking up the place but it's
your dime, listening to the song of a
rotting corpse

Leeches
Hideous leeches with narcissistic mirrors
puppets on strings caught in a crossfire
expecting immunity to their insanity
beyond the shadows and house of clay
showing their colors cheating in life
hearing echoes of grandiosity caught
in a crossfire, gumming Cheetos
