The origin of the last one standing (a vile horror story)
She asked questions
she already knew the answers to
white knuckle hoping
and silently begging
for specific
and certain replies
Being able to
predict every
possible scenario
and to adjust herself
accordingly—
is paramount
lucky, in laser instinct
At least fate afforded her
that small kindness
She sings songs
of muted harmony and peace
figuring that
light soothing
was where the engine
of mild safe complacency, fed
She dressed accordingly
and pleased them, ...

Channeling the Wishmaster, Hannibal, Lizzie Borden, Candyman
Into the night the howling music of the phantoms’ calls
Gore and flesh scattered, smearing your name upon Hell’s walls
Into the depth of crimson’s fangs sinking for a persecuted mind
Puppets without strings I shall midnight wind
Once called unto the martyr of souls glutted as my blade I repeatedly ram
Tormented pain without salvation as the silence slaughtering of the surrendered lamb
Drink of my core to energize for the wishes of my command
Twisted meanings bestowed one wish, two wish, three...

American gods (+) Stygian Wave Forms
American gods
Aspiring gods.
The outer limits.
A famed forest.
Light (+) Shadows.
Stygian wave form.
A ritual written.
Channeled (+) Transmitted.
The forbidden.
Haze smoke/3am air.
Four alien eyes.
The path is there.
A dark thought.
Ocular surface -
And into the mind.
The daring of youth -
(+) the quest for truth.
Breaking away and breaking free -
Of this plastic superficial society.

Nightmares Kill
Nightmares are getting to where
all I see war between
My Father and my
Oldest Brother I'm stuck in the middle
It feels like I'm
going to get what I
want which isn't a
good thing because
I killed my oldest
brother in self-defense
to save my father
To which I wake up
Pissed off to the
Freaking World

Soliloquy
a half burnt
cigarette
glaring at me;
blowing snow rings
into atmospheric-smog
between word placement,
punctuation, font, and form
collecting
crumpled metaphors
origami basket balls
landing on
the floor
I lied, tonight
saying "I'll be alright"
diluting reality's fears
in ink-tears
letting words form
the script
of rehabilitation

Scars Hiding
Look at my face
Really look
Grizzled
Beat up
Scars hiding
Irresistible
Right ?
A woman like you needs me
I don't take your crap
Yet I coddle you
As I can't resist the hurt you've suffered
We're not perfect
Pretty damn good
I'll take it
Will you ?

I am madusa
They say I am ugly,
But nobody knows
I stay out of sight,
Where nobody goes.
I was protecting my home,
Where men dared to roam,
attacking and killing ,
for reasons unknown
Bloodshed and murder.
Began to unfold,
That's when my heart,
Became frozen and cold.
I hid in the shadows,
Driven by rage,
Conjuring ways,
to get rid of this plague .
Rage turned to despair,
As slithering serpent's
Hissing and whispering
Replaced my hair. ...

Amphibian Wet Dreams
Amphibian Wet Dreams
A bounce
Of crickets
On the march,
Pools
Of dew
A thirst to parch,
And dreams
Hallucinating
As they whirl,
These are things
Toads think
About,
And wonder too
In human
Drought.

1930s Double Feature
Please take your seats and do not have nightmares.
God will keep these phantoms black and white.
I
The Vampire Bat (1933)
Let me take you back in time
and place, to a town
with sloping rooves
and cased windows.
It’s always night,
and black-and-white.
A woman cries out,
in lamplight.
A doctor seeks to find
eternal youth
in bodies drained by what
crawls on those rooves.
And sneaks in by a cased window.
A bat whom only Hell can know.

White Zombie...

Killer Candy Corn
His momma was a candy
And his daddy was a corn
Though their love was forbidden
Sometime later, he was born
At first they called him a monster
Looking abnormal and vicious
Unbeknownst to him later on
People would find his kind delicious
"He’s a freak, he’s bizarre, he’s a weirdo!"
They called him an odd shaped beast
With sworn scorn they hated his form
Not knowing he’d be part of their feast
Then he found out his mommy and daddy
Had popped more corns than kettle porn
Now his breed are all over the...
