Shadow


follows me closely
while life
retreats into shadows
shunning
gnarled fingers
of winters hand
my heart
palpitates a lonesome song
a ponderance of youth
yearning days of old
where children play
in bright summer fields
and laughter
is caught...

Smoke Signals

mixed
with a full moon twist
dry and on the rocks
keeps my tongue tide
and close to your ear
while you sexily sip Ciroc
we talk about this and that
and all the slick shit
that comes before sex
and God
that dress
the cause of my distress...

~ Love Is A Powerful Force ~

is a powerful force

emanating through the universe
resounding in every star
defying gravity as it sails
unbound on an intergalactic path
to find its match

love is omnipotent
in its strength

the breadth of God
exhaled upon...

It's sad your fear

knowing that death is near

you lay hapless as a newborn
covered in feces

you tell me you love me
you're so full of shit

you would tell me anything now
to save
your pathetic...

Dreamer

If I
can dream
a dream of dreams
where every scene serene
and the only sound I hear
is the sound of your laughter
sweeter than the air I...

Zombie

before our eyes
for all to see
if we seek
truth
foretold throughout millennia
gods crashing the gates
regurgitates dementia
sickness
in the hearts
and minds of men
blinded by
selfishness
fueled by gluttony
the blind leads the blind
on...

Shunned

in my life
have I've heard
anything good
escape your mouth
in regards to me

I am a shit stained smear
at the bottom of your loafers
bird shit droppings atop
your prized buntal...

Dragon Blood

He sits
on the edge of the world
unconcerned with the
dissimulation of
polite society
busy little bee's
bouncing off reality
living the dream he
so valiantly fought to...

My dog barks incessantly through the night

dog
barks incessantly
through the night
at ghouls and ghost
only a dog's eye can sight
for I swear
when I look
there's nothing to be seen

he barks at the wind
the trees and
all in...

No Man Knows

No man knows
the time nor the hour yet
he fears the space in between where
life borders on the fringe of obscurity
the living
knowing only what the dead interprets
and history changes as...

A myriad of thoughts

jutting
head butting
the dead
lie in bastions
abutting
fortifications
of the living
whilst angels
sing of blasphemy
and the heavens cry bile
mans race
to contaminate
space
look closely
the esoteric
genetics
unseen
in human DNA
confound
look...

Scavenger

A rat roams ravaging for rations
seeks shelter simmering
from a summers storm
amongst brush
bruised and blushed
he fuss and frets
until the rain lets
then scurries scuttle
and skittles away
into the darken day
daintily dazed
he...
