YOUR WOMANNESS
Oh, did you ever blossom;
It makes me cry out, "Awesome!"
Looking at your womanness
Is a wonder to witness.
I think about you at home,
And there I write this poem.
Knowing how much you have grown
Galls me that you're not my own.
Yes, my heart does indeed break,
And my desires do ache.
But I am so proud of you
For how you are -- that is true!
Keep on being you -- today,
Tomorrow, and every day.
It makes me cry out, "Awesome!"
Looking at your womanness
Is a wonder to witness.
I think about you at home,
And there I write this poem.
Knowing how much you have grown
Galls me that you're not my own.
Yes, my heart does indeed break,
And my desires do ache.
But I am so proud of you
For how you are -- that is true!
Keep on being you -- today,
Tomorrow, and every day.

CHERRY AIN’T THE FLAVOR
Hiding in the bathroom
Let me brush my hair
Give me one sec.
I’m focused on the sink
Please baby don’t wake
Your scream drives me crazy
I wish I could take it easy
All these voices in my head
Gotta make a choice
I have no clue what I’m doing
There’s no such thing
For us girls now
Even the internet or
The conversion can help us
Boys, boys, boys, men
Take care of them
It’s not a flavor
Why are only men commenting on
My poems now?
Let me brush my hair
Give me one sec.
I’m focused on the sink
Please baby don’t wake
Your scream drives me crazy
I wish I could take it easy
All these voices in my head
Gotta make a choice
I have no clue what I’m doing
There’s no such thing
For us girls now
Even the internet or
The conversion can help us
Boys, boys, boys, men
Take care of them
It’s not a flavor
Why are only men commenting on
My poems now?

DON'T THINK LIKE ME
I would like to have a moment of your time and patiences, with deepness and understanding, as I exchange my thoughts and emotions and feelings. For there is no guarantee that TOMORROW is a promised to US, for you gotta grab life, as if it is your last breath for don't put off what you you can do TODAY or SAY. But yet learn to grow with the process of creating, a masterpiece that requires you to accomplish something for yourself. FOR IF YOU LOVE SOMEONE THEN TELL THEM, THAT YOU DO NOT WAIT TILL IT'S TO LATE FOR LIFE IS NOT A PROMISE. I appreciate your kindness and love and support and...

The Biting Mouths
When the mouths of the machine
Called for war
The men ran toward death
In joy, in honour, jingo, and fear
The women stayed home
To make the bullets and the bombs
The women watched
As the men marched away
To destroy each other
When the mouths of the machine
Called for peace
It came with conditions
The men refused to kill
The women refuse to make bombs
The mouths would get their blood
They fed on the land instead
They bit into the world
And sucked out the juice
They chewed and spat the waste ...
Called for war
The men ran toward death
In joy, in honour, jingo, and fear
The women stayed home

Called for peace
It came with conditions
The men refused to kill
The women refuse to make bombs
The mouths would get their blood
They fed on the land instead
They bit into the world
And sucked out the juice

UPHOLDING
A brassiere that's fitted well
can give the breasts a welcome swell,
keeping them upfront, well-rounded
when by the latex surrounded.
It can uphold, against the tide
of gravity on woman's pride,
Just like a pair of angel's wings,
a support underpinning things.
eliminating latent fears
shoulderless frocks show spaniel ears,
can give the breasts a welcome swell,
keeping them upfront, well-rounded
when by the latex surrounded.
It can uphold, against the tide
of gravity on woman's pride,
Just like a pair of angel's wings,
a support underpinning things.

Yellowjackets
yellow black buzz
outside your window
with stinger knives
we live underground
queens with hives
looking through
your glass window
late at night
cause we want a bite
straight through you
can’t run from us
the swarming curse
pray for a nurse
she drives the
yellow black hearse
Epinephrine
won’t save you
suicide sacrifice
sacred side effect
ritual of flight
we're your doom
coming for you
carnivorous teeth
devour hands and feet
meat that’s sweet ...

Wild Old Woman
She was light on her feet
As a cat, even in stilletos,
Daintily slipping through
Without a sound.
Her gaze was that
Of a wild woman,
Carrying the ever present
Tinkling of something dangerous
Hidden ever so carefully
Behind the poise and grace
Of a lady.
Her hair nearly
Touched the ground,
As if Rapunzel
Had been absorbed
By the witch.
Freely hanging locks
were a cloak of vines
trailing behind her.
They seemed to
Hold each one
Of the stories she had ...

BACK VIEW
Sometimes
IM REMINISCING
LOOKING BACK
HER BACK VIEW
MY HORNY EYES ARE GLUE
SO MANY HOLES TO FILL
If you don't have
That TRUE VISIÓN
for the end goal,
you have no fucking Clue
BEGIN A NEW YEAR
WITH SOMEONE NEW
IM REMINISCING
LOOKING BACK
HER BACK VIEW
MY HORNY EYES ARE GLUE
SO MANY HOLES TO FILL
If you don't have
That TRUE VISIÓN

She Wolf
Her smile is as terrifying
As it is beautiful
When her lips seem to curl into a snarl
As she bares her teeth
In a blood curdling
Yet oh-so-dainty way.
Ferocious little she wolf
Walks with the grace
Of a delicate lady
As well as the poise
Of a mother
Readied to defend
Her pups and her dignity.
Blood drips
From her teeth
As her eyes glisten
Like the twinkle
Of one gone mad,
But her aura is vicious,
Suffocatingly sweet
And soothing
While she tears
Out your...

Wanted
It is deceptively simple--but innate
The fantastic lies that plaque truth
Needing, loving, lusting --- a sentient
Waiting to be moved
We don't realize our old illusions
How easily they comfort and grow
More enamoured as we tease and hypnotize innocence
To contort and confuse
The safe soul
Our past was earned on merit
We were deeply burned and beared it
We once had such spirit,
Looked deep within to intuit
Frailty in smiles
Passion for miles
A heart that was tender, unfiltered and wild ...
