Hollow Man
Hollow of eyes,
these shut eyelids
cast out the light.
The eyes of this soulless man
fused shut years ago to the light.
Light that would melt the ice within.
Hollow of a voice,
these shut lips
hide my cold thoughts.
The voice of this empty man
choked mute long ago.
Mute to expressions of empathy.
Hollow of warmth,
this icy skin
encasing a body void of a soul.
these shut eyelids
cast out the light.
The eyes of this soulless man
fused shut years ago to the light.
Light that would melt the ice within.
Hollow of a voice,
these shut lips
hide my cold thoughts.
The voice of this empty man
choked mute long ago.
Mute to expressions of empathy.
Hollow of warmth,
this icy skin
encasing a body void of a soul.

Change the Locks
scatterbrained,
feathers and pecking,
thoughts quick,
frantic checking.
the door is locked,
footsteps approach,
sweat sliding down,
a creeping roach.
It looks in your eyes,
you have no disguise.
knob turning,
knee hitting the wood,
still locked in a trance,
be understood.
one-click,
two-click,
three-click,
done.
time standing still,
yet persisting forward,
the door is now open,
you are corned.
a question is asked,
yet you did not hear it. ...

Whistling In The Woods
Oh, don’t go whistlin’ in the woods at night
When the trees stand still and the moon ain’t right
There’s a voice that calls, but it ain’t your kin
And the thing that answers don’t wear no skin
What’s that draggin’, heavy on the leaves?
A sound like chains, or broken eaves?
It hums my tune, it mocks my name
But its voice is wrong—it ain’t the same
Yonder yellow grin in the shadow’s maw
Eyes too wide, a gaping flaw
It stares me down, it don’t draw near
Just waits and grins, feeds on my fear
Oh, run, my child, but...
When the trees stand still and the moon ain’t right
There’s a voice that calls, but it ain’t your kin
And the thing that answers don’t wear no skin
What’s that draggin’, heavy on the leaves?
A sound like chains, or broken eaves?
It hums my tune, it mocks my name
But its voice is wrong—it ain’t the same
Yonder yellow grin in the shadow’s maw
Eyes too wide, a gaping flaw
It stares me down, it don’t draw near
Just waits and grins, feeds on my fear
Oh, run, my child, but...

The Storm
The Storm”
The mechanical noise starts up.
He hears it.
Feels it.
It is coming slowly up the hallway
to his room.
It is a dark and stormy night.
That all too famous line.
And it has come back to him tonight.
It has come back to say, “Boo!” and laugh.
“I love you,” it says.
Little green man.
Muscular, little green man
slips through the closet door,
back out now looking at him,
then to the hallway
and back to him with a worried face.
It is coming closer and little green man ...

He Came Back As A Zombie
Linda was naked with David.
That's before she looked up and screamed.
Her dead husband chowed down.
That's before she looked up and screamed.
Her dead husband chowed down.

Nothing Could I Feel
In the darkness, when the lights failed,
I heard voices, distant and strange.
Not the usual whispers of fear,
but words that lingered, cold and clear.
I struggled, unsure of where to go,
screaming in silence, no one to know.
The air was thick, the stillness deep,
a kiss hung close, a promise to keep.
A kiss should soothe, a taste should heal,
but in this void, neither could I feel.

Becoming Obsolete
Listening to my hidden self and footsteps loud
and clear, feeling the madness of the dark veil
in the naked expressions of my euphoria.
Bathing myself in vicarious splendor
lusting for tremors of imaginary love
seducing my mind and becoming obsolete
fraying at the seams in my dark boutique.
Being born with a caul without purpose-altering
spaces reflecting empty places
thinking that life is just a window seat
looking out into the dark oblique.
and clear, feeling the madness of the dark veil
in the naked expressions of my euphoria.
Bathing myself in vicarious splendor
lusting for tremors of imaginary love
seducing my mind and becoming obsolete
fraying at the seams in my dark boutique.
Being born with a caul without purpose-altering
spaces reflecting empty places
thinking that life is just a window seat
looking out into the dark oblique.
