Replace your lover
People are like oil filters,
after 5,000 miles or 6 months,
you should replace your lover
Over time people build up,
harmful, abrasive, sludgy bits,
that will find their way into your heart
If not replaced as instructed, those toxic pollutants may kill you.
So remember,
keep your organs and psyche clean.
That's my message to you...Guaranteed!

A Thousand Tiny Deaths
I die a thousand tiny deaths
Each time I hear his voice
Memories of how I waited in anticipation
My heart beating erratically
Beats of sweat rolling between peaks and valleys
My breath in staccato before he opened my door
The sounds our bodies made
As he brought me to unimaginable heights of pleasure
My tear stained pillow when he left
My life on hold as I yearned for his return
The cycle of shame, damnation and denial each time I walked away
Then went back
The jolt I felt
When I saw that my yearning had turned into...

One Night Stand
I can't believe I did it. I knew it was going to happen. But, I usually convince myself that my marriage is sacred to me. Yet, I was pushed to do it. Physically depriving me of his touch, then verbally with his indifference. It was bound to happen.(Jane)
She started the minute I woke up. "When are you coming home? Do you get paid today? Pick up milk? We ran out." Normally, I take this barrage of questions with a grain of salt. But today I had it. Last night, I reached for her. I gently kissed her on the neck, just the spot that always puts her in the mood. You know what?...

Adonai
touching you so intimately feeling shy
your brutality cruelly seduces me
Adona, who grooms my seduction
allowing those feelings to flow free
you adore an aggressive woman
but not with me you prefer a torrid affair
concubine over the immortal
awaiting your touch
you will tease and not quench my thirst
pleading redemption in your caress
expressing the moment in stiff rebuke'
bringing me to my breaking point
there is no gray in my skies
You have filled them with a rainbow
with knowledge of who you are ...

I know some of your secrets
I know enough
Maybe I’d like a few more
Perhaps not
I’m greedy
Not stupid
The fringe is paradise
Cold mornings
Despair in personal heat
You control my lust
Thermometer shatters
Mercury poisoning
Mercy ….

GET OUT OF MY LIFE
Let's take a moment to analyze, as we reflect upon the uncrossing, of our history and life 💖 together. 🤔 For sure I have been very grateful enough to know when it's over and done , between us but yet I truly wonder is it really over between us. 🤨. For it is true that we have so much history together, it would be a shame to watch it go away and never truly return. 😔 Yet I know it would be best for me and you, being that we are always fighting and arguing back to back and going at each other like cats and dogs. 🤨 Almost to the point of no return from...

A FINAL 24 HOURS WITH BOBBY MCGEE
-- Janis Joplin is my favorite singer, a big sexual fantasy and her song. "Me and Bobby McGee" is one of my favorites.
In the song: she and Bobby stop traveling together near Salinas. (Lord, I let him slip away. He's lookin' for that home, and I hope he finds it. But, I'd trade all of my tomorrows, for one single yesterday to be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine.)
Janis died at 27 just a few days after recording the song. No more tomorrows for her. Let's suppose HER WISH CAME TRUE and she was given a "single yesterday" with Bobby. So, here's a...

Naked Soul
He gnawed it over in his mind,
how he would invade her kingdom.
Possess all her sums.
Her soul was dressed with the body.
He saw her naked soul, it's all and far.
External battles carve wisdom's scars.
His eyes burrowed through
tattered flesh and bone's soil.
Beyond her crumbling stone walls.
His hand on the door to her existence.
She lacked a shred of resistance.
There was a brilliant spectrum of her energy.
Our understanding of the magic
is still in it's infancy.
But her smile contained an elaborate...

David Lewis and the concept of bearded men
The concept
of us in all time
and in no time
at the same time
a bitch-baby concept
to grasp.
Because the multiverse theory
says there are
infinite worlds,
and we exist
in some form
in each
So I assume rather
arrogantly
that a version of
Me
You
Us
wafts through all
space and time
in a philosophical
reduction
that we call:
quantitative parsimony
Each thing is a thing. ...
