Handle and Key
You are your own handle to doors that you pass through in and out of life. You also put a lock on to keep you safe. You are the only set of keys to you and all your furnishings from the rug to the wonky chair. You keep it as a reminder that being ins’t about perfection a nip and tuck doesn’t make up for how you feel and what’s wrong with being unique at least you are being real. You are selective not selfish to who you open doors too. You could count those chosen few on one hand. They are the most precious possessions you have like artwork hanging on your walls each a bit of Picasso from the...

Spineless Rat
There's nothing I would do for you
You're a real scum bag
All you do is nag
Kiss my ass you goddamn fool
Go fuck yourself and I'll fuck your girlfriend too!
The pile of shit is decorated for you to consume
Degradation
Accept the invitation
Your a shit sucking butt fucking disaster, now go to your room
Lick the dick you inherited between your legs!
Your nose is deep up corporate ass
Are you his puppy?
I hate yuppies
Nobody gets a free pass
You look pathetic enough to urinate all over

Diagnosis
For Elisha
I.
I am sure you felt its shadow
locomotive smoke growing thicker
that plumule bomb
of hazardous waste
pulverizing the landscape
of your lungs
There are so many cliches
for a time like this. . .
‘Take care of you’
‘It will be alright’
‘I’m so sorry’
‘I’m here if you need me’
'What can I do'
But the truth is
it hurts to concentrate
on a war game
of chemotherapy
and radiation roulette

Stop feeding off the negative
Once a week I do a complete shave of my face
I look forward to the warm water, shaving cream and Gillette Razor taking every whisker completely off
As I looked at my face today, the only hair that was left was above my lip
I don’t call this a mustache because I’m not trying to grow one of those
As I stared at myself and looked at the hair above my lip
I said to myself,
what if I donned a toothbrush mustache?
For those of you that don’t know what a toothbrush mustache is,
look at the visual I attached to this story
Not a real attractive...

THE BEAUTY TRAP
I'VE HEARD
all the glib and
serious remarks
about beauty as related
to women:
"Beauty is only skin deep."
"Beauty is in the eyes
of the beholder."
"Beauty may be in the eyes
but ugly is bone deep."
YEARS
ago I dated a woman
who won a national
beauty queen contest.
My chest was swollen
and I was the envy of others
BUT

really "ugly" because of what

The Resilience of a Poet
The resilience of a poet comes from the heart
From the deepest part of the human soul
And yet there is a strength from this poetess
It’s something that can’t be expressed in words
But there is a profound sense of understanding
Something that takes time and tide and time again
It goes beyond the realm of our comprehension
Something this poetess sees and feels and tells
With every breath poetry pours with calmness
Illuminating like a beacon beckoning a smile
Reckoning the intricate webs and nuances of life
In admiration of stars...
From the deepest part of the human soul
And yet there is a strength from this poetess
It’s something that can’t be expressed in words

Something this poetess sees and feels and tells

IT'S JUST ME, BEING ME
Bare unadulterated essence, my naked body
Unveiled, unguarded, and quite unapologetic
A canvas of vulnerability, so raw and so true
No pretense, or facade, it's just me, being me.
Within every curve and freckle, a story unfolds
Whispers of a past and promises of a tomorrow
Embracing my flaws, celebrating my strength
The silence of my skin, I find what freedom holds.
I wear no cloak of shame, nor a shield of fear
Just a pure, unfiltered essence of being here
Naked and unbound, proudly I will...

Andy Kaufman...Genius
Insisted he wasn't a comedian, jokes he hated
A song & dance man, he has often stated
Early comedy clubs thought he was a hack
Foreign man revealed, they wanted him back
First season of Saturday Night Live
Mighty Mouse performed, in 1975
Elvis impersonation was well respected
Flawless in delivery, absolute perfection
Latka Gravas introduced on taxi, a TV show
Tony Clifton was Andy, in case you didn't know
Jerry Lawler brought him to Memphis
Andy's character was smug & pretentious
Wrestling...

E tu vivrai nel terrore!
Italian director Lucio Fulci,
began his career during the 1950's
By the early 1970's, Giallo thrillers,
mysterious shockers, who is the killer?
A Lizard in Woman's Skin
Sette Note in Nero
Don't Torture a Duckling
Sella d'argento
1979 the maestro switched to gore,
Zombi was graphic, the audience wanted more
Paura nella città dei morti viventi
L'aldilà
Quella villa accanto al cimitero
The gates of hell trilogy
Fulci's finest hour,
executed with brilliancy

BEING NAKED
Let me strip myself of all
pretense and inhibition,
unencumbered by the weight
of societal expectation.
I want to feel the sun as
it kisses upon my skin,
the wind caress my body,
without any shame of sin.
I crave the true freedom
of only being authentic,
unmasked, unguarded,
raw and unapologetic.
Over any type of protective
armour, choosing vulnerabilty,
any type of dishonesty or deceit
I will be choosing authenticity.
Shedding layers of conformity
and embracing my true essence ...

DARE TO FIGHT FEAR
THERE
is no way of knowing
how much wonder, pleasure,
and amazing discoveries will
come to a person who dares to
step out of their closet
of fear, cast of the shackles ,
and saying yes to a gift that
is freely waiting to be consumed.
THE
dare to touch, to taste, to enter,
to explore, and more secret desires
will burst forth like a new rose
in the Spring.
Meet me at the Kissing
Place and we'll escape
the prison of fear together.
YES,
even that prison.

Kaddish for Allen Ginsberg's 27th DeathDay
5/30
Twenty-seven years now, Allen,
since I last saw you in Altus, Arkansas,
waltzing with Garcia Lorca down the aisles
amongst the watermelons
of the Circle M convenience store,
watching you glance slyly at
old Walt Whitman ogling
the check-out boy
at the counter,
apple-cheeked and angel-haired
how did you know he was
Caravaggio's Cecco,
reborn just to grin
winsomely at you
as the Bradford Pears began ...
