Adultery Will Be Pillory
Does She Care If You Got Money ?
Not If She Is Just Your Little Honey
Sweet Yet She Bee Able To Sting
If You Don't Give A Wedding Ring
Dressed In Furs Draped In Silk
She Bathes In White Satin Milk
She Speaks In Mystery Her History
Bitterly Special Delivery Witchery
Trickery Trajectory Whiplash Injury
Special Delivery Valedictory Pyrrhic Victory
Not If She Is Just Your Little Honey

Eternal
The power of hell awaits, first you must cross the gates, guarded by a three headed beast, Cerberus awaits its feast
flesh and bone for safe passage, torture is most ravished, to rip and tear the flesh from tissue, of this Cerberus has no issue
to grind the bone into powder, is matched by screams much louder, your soul relinquished and replenished, added to the pits of the masses.

the quiet ritual: frags of what stays..
Soon it’ll be the start of a new decade and i’ll be a new birth age
my home burn’d as a phoenix does, only to
rebuild itself within a different atmospheric
hemisphere, on another plain
i seeded a butterfly bush for the view of the
guest bedroom and an olive tree that
listens to evocations sent unto infinity
i’am a frajile a late-evening..
i walk in absenceness unexpecting..
Grief of lost love hunts me as if im ...

the illogical mathematician
i’ve calculated complexities
from the maths within
it doesn’t add up
turns out
i’m a
0
let me just re-affirm this
about that lateral theory
you never understood about me
i’m inversely proportional
to the sum that betrayed me
consequently
you can’t subtract
the silence
from my existence
i need this imbalance
of dynamic instability
to fluid the mechanics of my life
just stop hypothesizing
on the illogic of my essence

Wrongly into the Night
I’m hanging with
This chick I have
Nothing but
Disdain for, but
Her brain game
Is the reason I
Stay and with no other
Prospects on the
Horizon.... well,
I just can’t go back
To beating my meat
I did that for too
Many years and I’m
Finally able to get it
Up with a woman in
Real life and I’m not
Giving that up no
Matter how bad the
Psychic strain is
Because pain is just
Part of existence and
You can only refrain
From something for
So long before it
Becomes another ...

Family Matters
One way or another, we all suffer
Give love to my brother and my mother
My sister and father, they're all covered
Cause one way or another, we all suffer
Depressive sessions last forever
But we're better
When we're together
No weather cause get us too fed up
All tethered so whether we mess up you tell us we're better off keeping our head up
Rain can't break through any umbrella
That's real family
You talk, I listen, that's true understanding
We might fight on the landing
But keeping it candid
The times I've seen...
Give love to my brother and my mother
My sister and father, they're all covered
Cause one way or another, we all suffer
Depressive sessions last forever
But we're better
When we're together
No weather cause get us too fed up
All tethered so whether we mess up you tell us we're better off keeping our head up
Rain can't break through any umbrella
That's real family
You talk, I listen, that's true understanding
We might fight on the landing
But keeping it candid
The times I've seen...

Adopted Mom
I remember how you towered over me
Anger in your face; never knowing what I did
I tried so hard to obey your laws
Gave up pants, watched what you allowed
Poured my heart and very soul into Christianity
Bent my will, my pain and broke my soul
Trying to earn a smile, trying to make you see
That it was worth you saving me from fostercare
No matter your reasons, no matter why you did it
My trauma ran deep and you may have been a narcissist
I may have been your scape goat
Your perfect punching bag
High, mighty, holy in your righteousness ...
Anger in your face; never knowing what I did
I tried so hard to obey your laws
Gave up pants, watched what you allowed
Poured my heart and very soul into Christianity
Bent my will, my pain and broke my soul
Trying to earn a smile, trying to make you see
That it was worth you saving me from fostercare
No matter your reasons, no matter why you did it
My trauma ran deep and you may have been a narcissist
I may have been your scape goat
Your perfect punching bag
High, mighty, holy in your righteousness ...

Amen
the whip descends again and again
priests and politicians consult
at prayers end, will she say ‘amen’
who decides, lords or countrymen
shamans of the occult
the whip descends again and again
pain spreads like carcinogen
helpless struggle without result
at prayers end, will she say ‘amen’
no rescue by brave cavalrymen
kings and courtesans exult
the whip descends again and again
conversation and laughter in the den
witnesses in a state of frenzied tumult
at prayers end, will she say ‘amen’
...

Reasons to Escape
people disappearing in broad daylight
scared kids begging for a hug at night
pain
fear
suffering
spreading like a disease
your sky may be blue
but mine is black
it's sad but it's true
once gone
innocence doesn't come back
scared kids begging for a hug at night
pain
fear
suffering
spreading like a disease
your sky may be blue
but mine is black
it's sad but it's true
once gone
innocence doesn't come back

A Visit To Camp
have you ever
visited a room
where people went
expecting
a nice soothing
hot shower
at the end
of a hard day's
work
a brief respite
from the
daily horror
of slave labor
starvation
and brutality
only to become
trapped
in a death chamber
with the smell
of bitter almond?
have you been to a place
where
human beings
were
worked as slaves
then herded
at the end of the day
like
cattle
to the abattoir?
