dismissed
you hurt me with your callous words
and I wonder do you know how you cut?
you must know, you know me well
I didn't come here to hook up
my anxiety peak and it was crippling
my voices howled and it was deafening
the world was beautiful to some but not for me
I found your presence soothing when I first came
I wrote about demons
I was frightened but they weren't going away
so I came into a place of acceptance
I became their slave
I talk for them and gave them voice
it was either that or break under the weight
...

TAKING COVID LIGHTLY
He was one of the
thousands, if
not millions, who
took the Covid
guidelines lightly.
He mocked mask wearers,
and refused to
social distance,
gloves were insane.
The vaccine was
a government hoax.
He was buried yesterday,
cause of death?
Covid.

I Died Before the Morning Dew
So suppose that I must confess
For what pray tell but I digress
The crimes I see inside of me
Best left to childhood memory
Some secrets better left untold
To feel the pain as we grow old
This is what I confess to you
I died before the morning dew
To hide among the common thread
From dreams that burn with words she said
Admitting I was left alone
Aches within me a broken bone
The greatest fear that's left in me
That love is something I can't see
A hiding man undercover
Little boy left by his mother ...

sadness
her hair hides
the fragile smile
as tears find
their way down
her cheeks,
dropping away
into emptiness
and confusion,
passing lost hope
and what was
once happier days.

DARK and TWISTED
Sometimes your honesty feels like violent blows
For I still carry our hidden secrets nobody knows
My eyes have opened, but my soul's departed
You left me stranded after just getting started
Somewhere along the way your feelings shifted
Leaving me often feeling so very dark and twisted
You were a trickster filled with so very many lies
To many when's and way far too many why's
Mixed in also with how come's and also who's
Leaving me dumbfounded without many clues
I know I'm not very special nor am I very gifted
I am...

BILLY - THE REVOLUTIONIST!
I feel like a revolutionist today, folks!
Armed & ready to fight prejudice -
With my words!
I had a dose of it last night.
Was told I was not welcome at a certain wine bar,
Situated here, near where I live.
Was told to watch my back -
Just because I'm English!
I only went along for the Karaoke...
Unfortunately,
The guy never saw the person behind the mask -
Never gave him a chance!
After all, I could've been the English guy,
Who fought to save his daughter's life,
The surgeon; instead, fighting...

COLD SHOWER
She broke his heart
And wounded his soul;
His hormones badly
Needed control.
He was left
Emotionally raw;
He knew that night
There would be no 'score'.
He undressed,
Taking a cold shower
To ease his body
Of lust's power.
The water took
Downward direction;
As, later, his
Use-less erection.
And wounded his soul;
His hormones badly
Needed control.
He was left
Emotionally raw;
He knew that night
There would be no 'score'.
He undressed,
Taking a cold shower
To ease his body
Of lust's power.
The water took
Downward direction;
As, later, his
Use-less erection.

Regret of Men and Women
I regret when men
and women cheat
because they ruin it
for all the good men
and women out there
looking to get to
know each other
It's hard to do this
because we all fear
rejection or if they
will cheat on us
Remember one thing
Always treat the
Woman with:
Kindness and Respect
and women cheat
because they ruin it
for all the good men
and women out there
looking to get to
know each other
It's hard to do this
because we all fear
rejection or if they
will cheat on us
Remember one thing
Always treat the
Woman with:
Kindness and Respect

Poets, The Innocent Liars
sometimes we have to fake to live
for a nice feedback to receive
thus, our hearts are quite and calm
and yet, we express too much pain
we are liars, the deceiftul writers
wicked crafters, and manipulators
we seek sympathy and others attention
even against our own self-abnegation
but, sincerely we are very bad actors
making color movies from old cliches
outdated scripts and Hitchcock scenarios
to look pitiful in masked low-budget thrillers
the innocent words to outwardly deliver
alas ! die so fast...

Don’t ever build a wall between us girl
I’ll tear that bitch down, I’ll tear that bitch down
Please say you don’t need me
You can even deceive me
Tear my heart out like an unwanted weed baby
Lil Momma, you can even emotionally bleed me
Take the nine out of the drawer and just squeeze
Carve my heart out of my chest boo, just don’t tease
Alienate me, treat me like the plague, a fucking disease
You work your magic so well, with the greatest of ease
While I’m walking a high wire from hurt to hurt
You’re...
I’ll tear that bitch down, I’ll tear that bitch down
Please say you don’t need me
You can even deceive me
Tear my heart out like an unwanted weed baby
Lil Momma, you can even emotionally bleed me
Take the nine out of the drawer and just squeeze
Carve my heart out of my chest boo, just don’t tease
Alienate me, treat me like the plague, a fucking disease
You work your magic so well, with the greatest of ease
While I’m walking a high wire from hurt to hurt
You’re...
