One ought, everyday, to hear a song, read a fine poem, and, if possible, to speak a few reasonable words


--Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

 

I Hate Writing Poems

 

Each time the ink

slides down and bonds itself

to the pressed tree I wither

Agony is in my sweet prose

These words stolen

from the cold lips of royalty long ago

Not meant for me

but in desperate resolution

I lace these satin pages with black blood

for each word is

a scar searing pain

anguish and shame

have lain me to waste this paper

disgrace my language raped

thrusting this pen

deeper into incrimination

for I cannot stop the words

from clawing out of my mind

I tried to but this

wound is too deep 

the ink flows

 
 

Drowning

 

confluence of doubts

rising tide of unease

insecurities unite

 

this cloud of ash and

sadness rain down upon me

 

acid reality prickles against

exposed nerves

 

it is all merging together

as it falls apart

 

in hope lost reverie

I say it is the last

embrace before chaos

 

this is sadness

misery is but my shadow

 

and on these crying thoughts

I hang my doubts in threes

such order

chaos reigns

 

 

Off Key...

These soft off white pages
When my hands them split apart
For I saw into a keyhole
I witnessed

Your clandestine thoughts
Someone has been here
Your sand has footprints across it
My beach untouched before
Your dark steps navigated

Thee scribbled off black words
When my eyes into them searched
For meaning in this keyhole
I worried

Your true nature
Something unseen here
Your mind has shadows in it
My soul is strong before
Your dark hands touched

These subtle off translucent meanings
When my mind from them wondered
For making a key
I willed

 

 

 

Got To Thinking......

I got to thinking
swept away

Where are we going
disoriented

I don't know you
strangers

But we bonded
attraction

I find paper scraps
clues

I gave too much
possibly probably

I gave too quickly
rushing

But my hopes are high
eagerness

I wrapped myself into you
closeness

I still do
present time

I don't know what I want
confusion

But I've got to thinking

 

 

 

My Catalyst...

you ignite me
like a spark of flint
your attention
your affection

you excite me
like a shiver down my spine
your understanding
your intellect

you catalyze me
like my soul in blissful burning
your desire
your attire

you turned the key and baby, I started up
I purr like a kitten
as you pump the gas
I never knew I could move this fast
as we race together
as one blur of
untamed joy

I feel like we're kids
like I'm sitting on your handle bars
as you steer
laughter so abundant
we don't even worry
of falling off or crashing

you just keep driving me
hugging the curves and
keeping me going in a direction --
it doesn't matter where
but so long as were together
racing with matches and fire

you entice me
so hot it hurts like a friction burn to stop
as we whirl round and round
a ball of fire
brightly colored
freshly exciting
we are together
catalyzing one another
our souls do not burn with this passion and spice
they make fission
and baby, I like it,
no, love it.
 
 
 

Pleasure and Pain

 

Build a prison for your dreams
And lock me up inside
Torture me with fantasy

Let everything be true
Come into my dreams
Let me show you where I've been
It's you and me I've seen
Let me show you what I mean
In our secret lustful shadow land
Let my powerful hand provide
And whips of dark passion
Pleasure and pain
Ride you, your subconscious
There is nothing to hide
All is in fun, all for the rush
As we touch, with clothes undone
Caress you, control you
A slave to my desire
But slowly you become more
With the same burning fire
Tying your master up now
And this dreamworld playtime's just begun

 

 

 
Red Liquid Mineral

Things are not as I'd like them to be.

I'm learning night by night what blood tastes like to me.

You see my senses dulled your see me wandering.

You see all I have become but assure yourself its not a big thing.

Resting assured in my will to live,

You see past the call to give,

to me what I need most,

An embrace, a passion a guide,

a love, someone on my side.

But these things cannot be given,

Only the forceful keep livin,

That is why I have been beat,

And still I remain in defeat,

A soul filled with apathy,

Yet longing for reprieve.

The sweet copper swirl,

The red liquid mineral.

These things keep me company,

In my useless search through infinity.

 

 

Fair-weather Apologies

I will always love you just so you know,

But theres another side, you see, so please dont let me go,

When I get mad,

Or things get bad,

I always say that say the stuff that hurts,

Ill be your pal,

When things arent foul,

But when times get tough and things look rough,

I say the harshest things,

But after-words I know it stings,

And the past cannot be altered,

No matter how bad I faltered,

All I can manage it to place some gauze,

Over the wounds I cause.

Im sorry.

 

To err is human, to forgive divine. -unknown

 

 

Stupid System

Stupid teachers. 

Stupid me. Can't get up, can't go to bed, can't focus, can't use my head.

Stupid parents. Enrage my spirit most every night. With all your egos and all our fights.

Quiet anger. Rhymes well up, like tears unshed and still in the cup.

A breath of life. To escape the impurities. Smothered everyday. By so much disease.

I hate this system, can't we destroy it? I know you agree, won't you hear a bit?

Damned robotic lives, fighting for to survive. A mouse in a maze, a rat in a cage.

The training facility suppresses, preparing you to be one of the masses.

So angry I write, so helpless, can't fight.

Isn't there another way? To make a better today?

I'm a failure in your eyes, Join the system, you advise.

Damned if I do, Damned if I don't and most of all, damned if I won't.

Well fuck it all, I'm gonna resist till I fall.

Sitting in their desk, standing in their lines, following their rules, believing all their lies.

You innocent thing, But I am not. You've been taught not to sing, but I forgot.

You say I'd see it your way if I only tried, the trouble with that is: if I do it'd be myself to whom I lied.

Scrambling and clawing, that's the way it's done, when truth is what you seek and justice must be won.

 

 

Untitled 

Your actions fit your moments purpose

Your words creating an angry void

You rip me a new scar

Then turn away like nothings new

You know Im sensitive

You know I trust you

Laughing at my anger

Belittling my complaint

You son of a bitch

You make me hate

You take your position

Change it when it suits you best

Turn me aside

Lock your door

When I come round to settle the score

We know Im not all right up there

But little did I know how you could not care

How I loathe you

When this is what you do

Pick your fight

Be the vicious type

Bend my will

Make me see

Then when Ive had enough

I come back at you

Twice as tough

You scorn me like a child

And turn me away

So mild

You son of a bitch

You make me hate

You take your position

Change it when it suits you best

Turn me aside

Lock your door

When I come round to settle the score

We know Im not all right up there

But little did I know how you could not care

 

 

 

Dreams

Dreams are idling

The mind at play

Mystical worlds inviting

Though you cannot stay

 

Exciting your senses

Wondrous themes

Remember what is real

And what only seems

 

A dungeon of horrors

A battle of hate

A killer in cold blood

A sprig of violence from the inanimate

 

Splendid frolics

To feel loved and free

A place without boundaries

Slumber cradling intimacy

 

A haunting realization

A premonition grasped from an abyss

Threatening, questioning

Foretelling a hit or only near miss?

 

Oh bedtime poltergeist!

How you enlight!

What wonders you bring!

How some spite!

 

But without you

Woe, woe, woe to-night

Down I lie, give me a show

Goodnight.

 

 

I, Me, Them, Us, We & Myself
I used to love me.
When me plus them equaled we,
But now that's gone.
It's me.
And there's them.
We has been subtracted,
Us; divided.
I don't love me.
How can I?
When me made us divide,
When me makes them hate myself.
Why Why Why
Have I become so wrong?
So unfit for we.
I has become alone and disliked
For all that I is.
I used to love me.
But now I can't.
Love me.
Even though me made us divide,
Even though me makes them hate myself.
Can you?
Can you love I?
--Moi

 

Discord

Here we are again

This familiar place

Unwilling to bend

Flexibility is for the weak

 

Silence slivering between us

Our minds clouded

With feelings of righteousness

Delusions of rationality

 

Sharing nothing

But feeling everything

Alike in anger and hurt

And likewise, apart

 

Celestial worlds between us

In peril, subtle conflict

Rushing faster in heated words

Becoming a silent palpable discord
