Concerning the Fall from the House of Cosby and Presumable Estates
J'accuse
by ugly shaft
of privileged conversation
come to bay
at the edge of life —
the words still at large.
The unzipped lashes of narrow eyes
hang the jury low the resolve of this awing life
like stinging lemon
while the Pope and pubescent eunuchs discern the facts.
College youth freeze their eggs and mate in labs,
belching shots beyond the self-authority of their careers out dark curtains
and a self-defense Burdizzo.

Strangers in a Strange Bed
Strangers in a Strange Bed
Monica surprises me. “Honey, my waist size is down to where it was when we got married. How should we celebrate?”
“Let’s go to the girl’s roller derby.”
“You just want to get an eye full of those girls going at it like Amazon warriors. You get turned on by that.”
“Well, don’t you get excited by football players?”
“Are you kidding me? Do I get turned on by a bunch of hairy Neanderthals slapping each other’s butts? Hell yes!”
I say, “Give me a few minutes until I finish this chapter.”

Broken pieces
You act so different, putting on shows
Stop acting. You never wanted me
You were comfortable with my services
You "love" me and love her.
Promising me a life you can't provide
False advertising fake love
Using my words against me
When your words are solid and kept
Sneaking and sliding kisses
Only to clean up your lies for her
I'm nagging, sweating you....
Building alone and wonder why I turn to another.
How much can one take before they make choices.
My love was pure and righteous
Ready to do what u...

A Pace Rainbow Flag - Burnt In The Diarising .
In year 1.
a soft white cloth
offered as flags
in peace, tranquillity,
and surrender
In year 2 .
branches of olive leaves
ripped from trees
offered
on bent knees
of dreaming
rainbows
-promises of
saving floods of horror
In year 3 .
white doves
in abundance
wearing rings of
forgiveness;
their wings fluttering
in take off
and flight

Shadow
You took away from me
my right to be a Father
3 children tattooed on my chest
I lose holding them tight
everything is going to be all right
cant teach them right from wrong
only a father can teach somethings
they would grow up to be better than you or I
you took away from me the ability to protect them
cant tuck them in at night to give them a kiss and a hug
no more storys or to be able tell them about adventures
can’t watch them grow up to watching them graduate
can’t watch each of them get married and...

Come Back 2 Me
I remembered when we first met,
you saw me as I saw you from across the room.
Standing tall, dark, and handsome I fell apart right then and there at not just shyness but in awe of your gentle sex appeal to your smooth, soft spoken voice to your lean, but fit built that was definitely so beautiful to me.
I remembered how you came up to me and smiled at me with a smile that made me feel like fainting as it was so perfect and big yet so bright.
As months would go by we became closer and my attraction was getting deeper I knew at first it was wrong because I was already taken,...

Sweet November
Sometimes I wish you'd just slip away
When I wasn't watching
When you weren't looking
In my eyes.
The deliberate goodbye . . .
hands in mine
Lips gracing worry lines
On the face
I know you don't wish to go
The pained crack in the voice
As you turn the knob
And I tell you
Not to look back
But you do
And turn slowly
Then I know
it's time again.
Here I am sitting cross-legged
On...
When I wasn't watching
When you weren't looking
In my eyes.
The deliberate goodbye . . .
hands in mine
Lips gracing worry lines
On the face
I know you don't wish to go
The pained crack in the voice
As you turn the knob
And I tell you
Not to look back
But you do
And turn slowly
Then I know
it's time again.
Here I am sitting cross-legged

Motherless
They say there's power in words
They say the truth will set you free
But how do I sleep when my whole family lied to me?
How do I mend the things I never knew were broken?
When my mother went she left the front door wide open
How do I begin to say that I found myself in pieces
The feeling of being lost grips me as quickly as it releases
It breaks my heart to understand I'll never know my mother
There are things only a son can hear from a mom and not another
I can't begin to mend myself before I know what's gone
It feels...
They say the truth will set you free
But how do I sleep when my whole family lied to me?
How do I mend the things I never knew were broken?
When my mother went she left the front door wide open
How do I begin to say that I found myself in pieces
The feeling of being lost grips me as quickly as it releases
It breaks my heart to understand I'll never know my mother
There are things only a son can hear from a mom and not another
I can't begin to mend myself before I know what's gone
