Some Cure
I could, I could point
to all the sweet nothings
until you’re not the nerves
of that void that you can’t feel
beyond Fingertips Ct.
signs staked in the t-folds: “Dead End”
If I would, I could handle
your prophecy in test tubes
each bubbles newborn:
|Abstract||Pinch-able||Impossible|
and you’ll sit in all of the waiting rooms
twiddling for the pH balance of headlines
A tower shown has a trickle-down
scene of falling hands in versions
of the rain, snow, the...

Video Nasties
a horror story
1989
After he killed her, he returned her library books.
They were piled on a stand by Mary-Anne's armchair, which faced the walnut-encased television set. John liked to watch his videotapes on that, and now with her gone, he'd be able to more often.
If you get away with it...
I will, he snapped back in his thoughts. He shovelled the books into a bag, but not before one last disgusted grimace at them. The Sheikh's English Bride. The Millionaire's Harlot. Love on Ward 7. Kissing in the Common Room. She had no taste, no...

God's honest truth
As she lays in the hospital bed dying,
i have great sadness that my wife of 35 years is at death's door
There was so much more that we could have done together
My only regret is that I never hit her
That's the one thing I would do if I had to do it all over again
i have great sadness that my wife of 35 years is at death's door
There was so much more that we could have done together
My only regret is that I never hit her
That's the one thing I would do if I had to do it all over again

My skin between your fingers
Please, touch me gently.
If it is my destiny to be touched,
I pray for it to be done with kindness.
For my skin is not very strong,
and so it is littered with scars.
If I am to be touched,
I pray it is soft and gentle.
If it is my destiny to be touched,
I pray for it to be done with kindness.
For my skin is not very strong,
and so it is littered with scars.
If I am to be touched,
I pray it is soft and gentle.

did i live?
a dusty mask and a old chair
with a scenery of my life
O life,in the end i fell down from that chair
and questioned softly did i live?
while i am falling down
people were happy not me
suddenly,i travelled time
O dusty mask it wasn't funny
finally,but only regret is left
for me to choose,I've chosen by god
the liver is pulled,my throat went down
I've fallen down and everything went dark
with a scenery of my life
O life,in the end i fell down from that chair
and questioned softly did i live?
while i am falling down
people were happy not me
suddenly,i travelled time
O dusty mask it wasn't funny
finally,but only regret is left
for me to choose,I've chosen by god
the liver is pulled,my throat went down
I've fallen down and everything went dark
