HELLO DARKNESS, MY OLD FRIEND
Hello darkness, my old friend
It's been a minute since you came
I know its now the end of the game
And I can not bring any of my fame
So, who is that you're calling lame?
And there's noone to depend upon
The broken links that don't bend
You are still with me until the end
And my heart will still not contend
As I still can't hold no other man
So, let's go home together, friend.

You are still with me until the end
And my heart will still not contend
As I still can't hold no other man
So, let's go home together, friend.

Kicking Brick Walls
the hints
on wanting out
were too lazy
too subtle
difficult to understand
monosyllables
were supposedly glue
for relationships
it so, those adhesives were cheap
everything cracked
broke into pieces
so the conversations stopped
the waiting
the listening
disappeared into impossibility
and I stare into blank pages
trying to scare alphabets
into pretty words
to explain the pain
or to move on without caring

What She Wants:
Lustful trickery
Betrayal embodying
Experimental
Love Not:
Dwelling not upon
After all of the head games
Drama nevermore
She Doesn't Know:
Throwing yourself to
Many men being trapped and
Always have your way
Frustration:
Your maturity
Dismal communication
Never seeing past
Signs:
Marrying decides
Why your eroticism
Understanding want
Happy Marriage:

The Perception Of An Insecure Heart
This aching hunger
that kept me blinded for so long,
you filled in an instance,
not knowing the power you had over me,
still have over me,
not knowing just how beautiful
my loves surrender to you was.
It was always you that held my heart,
melting it in your hands, its rhythm,
at your command as a breeze
whistles through tall grasses,
gesturing to them which way to bend.
Still, My soul fears a trip,
that leads to a stumble that leads to a fall
and it fights this fear,
fights for its right to...

Women
I
Women are allowed to break oaths
professions sewn from hope
burn bridges to the ground
to make room for what counts
II
The problem with violence
is that it captures attention—
making it effective
When our bodies vibrate into action
we reach for reason
to hypnotize us
into balanced numbness

In my domestic violence exhibit
at the local library
one victim had written: ...

The Art Of The Deal IV (Stocks And Bonds)
RIVERALLS FRONT
New Haven, Connecticut
Early That Morning
Steffen was jolted out of a peaceful sleep. Someone was ringing the doorbell.
The sound echoed throughout the quiet atmosphere of the bedroom.
Steffen blindly reached out for Isabella. His arm came to rest on the cool surface of empty space. He threw the covers aside, and sat up.
Where was Isabella he thought?
Most likely in the shower, he mentally answered his own question.
Steffen walked into his bedroom, lifted his brown velour brown robe,...

Beauty Incarnate - with Her
Love's panacea comes at night
with sweet taste closing eyes
like a book unread
of twilight's sangria
and ambrosia
whispering lullabies
from words of prayer
of requited love
rekindling life's candle
loves reckoning comes with dawn
intended breath for my inamorata
her beauty incarnate
with sweet taste closing eyes
like a book unread
of twilight's sangria
and ambrosia
whispering lullabies
from words of prayer
of requited love
rekindling life's candle
loves reckoning comes with dawn
intended breath for my inamorata
her beauty incarnate

Nature
I used to write about nature
in its truest sense –
the whisper of pine needles
heady scent of moss
rioting dandelions
and hooting owls
The way that dewdrops cling
to the border of kale leaves in the garden
and how the stars tell stories
of my magnificent smallness
I still perceive this poetry
all around me
But I’ve become consumed of late
with the nature of humans
untangling ill-fated attachments
to wounded avoidants
that painful natural cycle
I just can’t break
And...
