Circus of Freaks
In the black heart of the dense forest
The lemon moon pours,
In the midst of the midnight mass -
Evil, insatiable, sick ...
Sticky and viscous entwined like a viper
Host of pale as chalk.
Branches of thorns are pierced by hooks
In the flesh of mutilated bodies.
Lust furious wild groans
Orgaistic tangles.
Lilies from the flesh opening the buds,
Spiders climb from the bosom.
Dead-eyed, this scary* clown,
Hollow, without legs, without a face
Dark master on a hornbeam throne
Full of a dead man...

Halloween
I
Black cat posing
on a fence post.
Weird sounds in
the dark.
Karloff's playing
in the lab.
Lugosi's lying on
a slab..
lock the doors.
II
Pumpkins
sitting on the
front porch
harvesting
joy and
imagination
in their drupe
expressions as
they whisper..
Ichabod..
Ichabod where
are you?
III
The most
beautiful night
is when our
true natures
are revealed
by the mask ...

Breech Presentation
sometimes I think I came into the world
of a reverse birth in the middle of the desert
and they never gave me the slap to breathe...
I think my panic disorder
may be directly linked
to my unusual way of leaving the womb.
to my unorthodox way of entering the world.
my memory of that moment is very poor
no smell, no taste...
and a diffused light at the end of the tunnel.
I believe that my poetry was born,
just like me, from this birth panic
from that dry and hard moment of
turning liquid into solid and breathing....

Disciples of Mischief
copy and paste this link and listen while reading and as always, thanks for looking 🤗 https://youtube.com/watch?v=zczFoOBe1eQ
I was alone In my room
or so I thought
from with under my bed
came an unearthly knock
stench and filth hovered
it started to loom
stifling the air
from inside of my room
then a loud crash exploded ...

Even Demons Have Sense Of Humor
ripped through the silence
wild laughter of my demons
putrid snarling smiles.

The Minotaur
The Queen of Crete's bull-headed lad
thought the rumour a load of bull,
'bout a wild bull... being his dad?
the Queen of Crete's bull-headed lad,
saw red, stomped and snorted, got mad,
felt the labyrinth's peaceful pull,

once thought rumours a load of bull...

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.

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.

Is it fair?
Have you died today, my fellow?
Transcending up to peace and love?
Bathing in comfort and lights mellow?
Does it seem pure harmony above?
Yes. It is our promise.
That death soothes our human pains.
Like a fairytale upon us...
No imperfection, angelic domains...
This is reality we can't depict.
In our brute lives of die hard.
But does it... doesn't it contradict
itself, the fact of the backyard?
The backyard of dimensions.
For our peaceful books hide a bit
of information, best unmentioned,
in order not...

Gothic.
By day the castle sleeps,
By night the spectre creeps,
The werewolf prowls the streets,
While the lonely banshee weeps.
The graveyard mist will crawl,
While the werewolf’s jaws will maul,
The vampire climbs the wall,
While both good and evil brawl.
The vampire’s victim screams,
While his eyes with pleasure beams,
Is nothing quite as it seems,
When the devil haunts your dreams?
The zombies from their tombs emerge,
While terror down your spine will serge,
Innocence with lust will merge,
While tempted by...

GALAXIES FAR AWAY
What is it about darkness that draws us so deeply within the depth of the atmosphere, as it grabs at the very core of your subconsciousness creating subliminal messages. Rushing through the stairway and gateways of our mind, yet creating illusions that seem to reach back at you as you reach out to touch. For what is it about darkness that scares you the most, gripping and pulling at the very core of your spiritual connection to your soul. Slowly altering the depth of your thoughts taking you upon a journey through, the endless galaxy of no space where time doesn't even exist just outer layer...

Vampire
Dark Shadows swirl beneath my wings
Engulfing my heart in eternal misery
My disease makes me thirst unquenchably
For the warmth of hot blood only love can bring
As I infect all that I touch with my infernal curse
While the internal conflict cannot be quelled
Without damning another to the same cursed fate
In infinite imprisonment of self-exiling seclusion
Concealing my undead life in an unmarked tomb
Forever bound by the shackles of loneliness
Within Pandora's box sealed with imaginary locks
Hiding in a wooden casket safely tucked away ...
Engulfing my heart in eternal misery
My disease makes me thirst unquenchably
For the warmth of hot blood only love can bring
As I infect all that I touch with my infernal curse
While the internal conflict cannot be quelled
Without damning another to the same cursed fate
In infinite imprisonment of self-exiling seclusion
Concealing my undead life in an unmarked tomb
Forever bound by the shackles of loneliness
Within Pandora's box sealed with imaginary locks
Hiding in a wooden casket safely tucked away ...
