Boneyard
Transformed are faces
harbored bodies
amid an airborn boneyard
Its altitude of steel
depressurizing
passengers into corpses;
sleeping beauties
deep in demise
The Unknown--
its heaving ocean
depositing metal crumbs
that can never be followed

Dead of Night
The dark drapes over unknown faces
The vaguest shapes the night embraces
Figures hunching in the dark
Enigmas never leave their mark
He tries to penetrate the night
Bringing secrets out into light
What he can't see remaining still
What he can't feel eludes his will
He shrugs and whistles on his way
Takes a moment, sits to pray
All the details rendered clear
The precision that he holds so dear
But night then makes his world melt
A silence too intensely felt
A mist that chills him to the bone ...
The vaguest shapes the night embraces

Takes a moment, sits to pray
All the details rendered clear

But night then makes his world melt
A silence too intensely felt

the unveiling
my soul a wild sapphire it burns bright in the light
it dazzles the eye, confounds the mind
then in the shade of your doubt, it's just a rock
dances freely while reaching for you
you're not to be found
I bedazzled you, then let you down
but I ask you to look closer
at my reflective surfaces
you will see deep undercurrents of beauty
the sex of me is thrilling but it won't keep you
you desire the truth in me
the truth is the wisdom of me is hidden
for those who would patiently wait on the unveiling
it won't be...
it dazzles the eye, confounds the mind
then in the shade of your doubt, it's just a rock
dances freely while reaching for you
you're not to be found
I bedazzled you, then let you down
but I ask you to look closer
at my reflective surfaces
you will see deep undercurrents of beauty
the sex of me is thrilling but it won't keep you
you desire the truth in me

for those who would patiently wait on the unveiling

Locked Room Mystery
There's been a murder
In a locked room.
The killer didn't enter
The killer didn't leave
Where is the killer?
The killer is still inside
You see.
The murder occured
1 hour ago
At 7pm
Its now 8pm
It took me a hour to get here.
The door is locked from the inside
Nobody could of known
The killer phoned it in.
I notice, the air vent has six screws
One of these screw is rusty.
Which means one of the screws doesn't belong.
He got in through the air vent.

ONE SURINAM CHERRY
One surinam cherry
Tasted so sweet
And mysterious
It made me desire all the rest
Of those terribly bitter things
One surinam cherry
Above all the rest
Because life is full of bitter things
It is mysterious
How you could be so sweet
Tasted so sweet
And mysterious
It made me desire all the rest
Of those terribly bitter things
One surinam cherry
Above all the rest
Because life is full of bitter things
It is mysterious
How you could be so sweet

BBW, A Haiku
Big girls need love too
Why do guys act insecure?
Y’all like skinny guys?

Satellite
You turn the tide to ebb and flow
A pockmarked face of craters wide
Yet some of us still want to know
What's concealed on your other side
Groovy gray satellite in the sky
Who placed you there and why?
It is said at night you're cold as hell
And burning sunlight makes you glow
We hit you hard you rang like a bell
So we calculated you must be hollow
Groovy gray satellite in the sky
Who placed you there and why?
The lunatics they worshiped you
They fell into obscurity long ago
But maybe it...
A pockmarked face of craters wide
Yet some of us still want to know
What's concealed on your other side
Groovy gray satellite in the sky
Who placed you there and why?
It is said at night you're cold as hell
And burning sunlight makes you glow
We hit you hard you rang like a bell
So we calculated you must be hollow
Groovy gray satellite in the sky
Who placed you there and why?
The lunatics they worshiped you
They fell into obscurity long ago
But maybe it...

I dunno ..
wonder what happened to that teddy bear
I had as a kid
where'd he go
I don't remember getting rid ..

As Real As They Come
She is more than just a warm body to come
Back to every night at home. She is that hook
And melody you simply cannot forget. You
Are the pigeon that goes after every crumb
She leaves behind. She gives you that one look,
Knowing she has you like the sun has the blue
And clear sky. You always give in and succumb
To the power she has over you. Some mistook
Her sassiness for street smarts. She may be too
Shy too some, but that is an understatement as
She is talkative with the right people and they
Adjust to her personality, but you are in...
