Poetics Introduction Induction

Thank you for beginning to read this book of more than 300 poetic works this introduction will be the only narration outside of the graphic poems they were written with a self-exquisite corpse and spontaneous automatism with aid of muses, red inked molskines and mounds of dark agonistic tomes the dates of writing are from the fall of 2008 to the spring of 2011 murks.

If you decide to complete this reading from the beginning to the very end download a copy with a real world free guarantee for your digital shelf one thing will be realized by reading that will make it worth pressing send inside there is stuff about art, philosophy and the physics of conscious self if not pleased i promise to write a poem especially about you as you do pretend.

Suggested Reading Guidelines

Firstly read the list of titles from beginning to end
skipping through or breezing past is slicing yourself thin
like women and men sitting alone and reading together on the city bus
you may never get this first chance ever again and forget this relative-time
from your conscious through the sublevel of the destination station of un-consciousness
this will establish the anagrammatic neuro-synaptic pathways through the axonic-mylonic maze
each of the titles is a smooth stepping stone that when stepped upon opens a little red and black door
the unconscious lay in between and in that resides your free will just beyond the reality haze
the one you call ‘I’ and a small bit commingling and infusing to the collective sub-conscious
take this chance now and do it right for the higher high the very first space-time
discover the triple entandra with a second reading revealing meaning thus
recognizing the rhyming and sequence adds an additional dimension
the full story will not make sense if you skip through the end.

How to determine the true monetary value of this poetry book

Think of the poems in this book as mini-experiences similar to enjoying your favorite cup of warm liquid surrounded by strangers with their faces buried in their laptops, dinner and a movie, drinks with a friend or a favorite cerebral massage or something to chew on from a bubblegum machine. Like anything else you consume on a daily basis, poetry has value and poems are worth something. Unlike behind the counter culture products, poems have different value for each reader. Follow these easy to understand guidelines to determine your personal poetics valuation.

After reading each poem, assign a value of 1-10. Determine each ratings value using the table below and when you are finished reading, add them together. This is your Aetherspheric valuation. This is what the experience is worth and what the value of the words actually are, adjusted to your own reality of course. If after reading and rating you feel you didn't pay enough for the reading experience, you are encouraged to purchase multiple copies and share them with others to sustain your aetherspheric equilibrium.

You...
1 = $ 00.01 : read the poem
2 = $ 00.10 : liked the poem
3 = $ 00.25 : read the poem twice
4 = $ 00.50 : giggled or winced
5 = $ 01.00 : laughed or cried
6 = $ 05.00 : loved or hated the poem
7 = $ 10.00 : became angry or horny
8 = $ 20.00 : lead to an epiphany
9 = $ 50.00 : were inspired to change something
10 = $100.00 : altered your perception of reality.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Columbus & Broadway

I’m sitting right here,
@ Columbus & Broadway.
People everywhere,
doing it the hard way.

Models here and there,
strippers galore.
If you look well enough,
you can find a whore.

Italian food, Greek,
Mexican too.
They are all here,
just to serve you.

Buying memories,
souvenirs as well.
Stay long enough,
go straight to hell.

Trust me I know.
been there and back.
But this time it’s different,
going to stay right on track.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lifting the Veil

They say making rhymes,
is a sign, that you’re going inane.
If this is so, can it be,
that we’re supposed to be all the same?

Average people can’t understand,
the depths in which we feel.
Over-react and under-dress
is simply just part of the deal.

They just can’t see it,
not the way we do.
That’s why we’re on stage,
they want to be like us too.

They just don’t know it,
because the veil hasn’t lifted.
To show them the truth,
people are not different and everyone’s gifted.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Let’s Meet

I can tell you things that you’ve never heard,
and show you things you’ve never seen.
What is it that you do,
from which I may glen?

We can meet for lunch,
or maybe tea.
You can tell me about you,
and then about me.

It’s not sex I want,
or friendship either.
It’s an exchange of ideas,
over a pint or a liter.

You tell me yours,
I’ll tell you mine.
If the energy is right,
together they will shine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lamia

I can’t imagine,
a life without struggle.
One with work,
AND a life to juggle.

Bringing others joy,
is the path I have chosen.
Work every week-end,
a love life that’s frozen.

I’m not complaining,
I’m full of ammonia.
Because that is,
I am ultra myopica.

That’s why I can’t wait,
for the return of Lamia.
That what’s I call,
my good friend anhedonia.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Electronic Glitter

MySpace, facebook, Google and Twitter,
filling our brains with electronic glitter,
eyes full of sparkle,
and minds full of litter.

Friends with thousands,
but know only few,
maybe you’re next,
just me, them and you.

My postings are read,
by thousands a day.
The phone never rings,
it’s as if I’m away.

Eat, sleep, dance,
movies as well.
Alone in the crowd,
with secrets to tell.

You tell me yours,
I’ll tell you mine.
We both need for more,
like the sunshine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tosca

I’m sitting here in Tosca,
drinking alone.
They say that’s a symptom
of something wrong in the home.

Beautiful women,
at the end of the bar.
Do you think one will screw me,
in the back of my car?

Oops, you see,
I don’t have my car.
Maybe we can do it,
in the back of the bar.

I doubt it though,
everyone would hear.
I guess I’ll just sit here,
and finish my beer.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Cozsing Pandora

I coze my Pandora,
she tunes my brain.
With piano concertos,
and sounds like rain.

She makes me feel unalone,
and sometimes warm inside.
I can listen to Depeche Mode,
when I want to cry or hide.

Mozart and Bach,
Nick Cave is here too.
The Smiths and Nirvana,
of course there’s U2.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sitting Fright

Here I sit,
alone in my room.
Nothing to think,
but more gloom and doom.

A solitary life is what I lead,
without regard to want or need.
Nobody knows where I do sleep
nor do they care if I laugh or I weep.

Alone I go into the night
with all of my will and all of my might
People are there in plain sight,
they pretend not to see because of their fright.

But I know they’ll be there
when I get my next hit
when once again
I am the shit

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Behind the Mask

Nobody knows me,
not by name.
I say hello and smile,
to them I’m just the same.
Another face in the crowd,
but behind the mask is pain.

A mindful of yesterdays,
regrets, hopes and sorrows.
But the worst is behind me,
I can finally see tomorrows.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Little Star

My little star sleeps next to me,
tiny nightmares light my way.
Why she’s here it’s hard to say,
please leave tomorrow, not today.

She sees me, not as I am,
but shades of dark-pale gray.
Now I’m awake and she’s disappeared,
I know I’ll miss her for the whole day.

As soon as I’m home it’s back to bed,
maybe she’s waiting within my walls of red.
And then I drift off to my sweet,
it’s only here we ever meet.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

North Beach Weather

In San Francisco there is no such thing,
as the season’s winter or summer.
It’s always either fall or spring,
of course the fog’s another.

Our park is called a square,
though it’s round and full of stoners.
Around dusk because they care,
the dogs are out walking their owners.

Every day from the front to the rear,
travelers drift like a newly formed band.
The backpacks and carriers do appear,
at the beach on the hill with no sand.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Will Ball

She has the name,
of a gay porno star.
I’ll bet you she lost it,
in the back of a car.

Mirrors are smashed,
deconstructing perception.
What this artist needs,
is a sold out reception.

She creates for some artists,
who have certain needs.
The feeling of victory,
a tower among trees.

So buy her work fast,
before she meets me.
Because when that happens,
she will cost at least x-three

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Misfits and Freaks

Misfits and Freaks,
I know them by name.
Because they and I,
are one in the same.

Their backs are all turned,
when we disclose,
our true other self.
The discussion’s now closed.

Then we retreat,
to our own little sphere.
To them it’s just like,
we were not ever there.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Paula Lietz

Paula Lietz is nice beyond measure.
To claim as a friend
is a valuable treasure.

A home-cooked meal,
provided each day.
To nourish the body, and keep hunger away.

To tune her own rhythm,
she listens to chants,
gives a rat’s ass and often wears pants.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Buy Christmas

Christmas sucks and I’ll tell you why,
It’s all about buy, buy, buy.
Sure there are friends and family too,
but only for some of you.

And the reason for the fray,
is not a virgin birth.
It’s to celebrate the Sun’s own way,
of warming Mother Earth.

So if you’re depressed due to distress,
it’s not because you’re high.
It’s the mind’s own way of dealing away,
a giant big fat lie

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Live in Effigy

We all live in effigy,
of those who came before us.
But we can’t see we’re but a tree,
standing alone in a forest.

So when the reaper swings your way,
don’t think that you can lose him.
You are little more than a thought,
that can be changed on a whim.

So live your life to the extreme,
and don’t you worry about labels.
Because the life you are about to lead,
is how they come up with those fables.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Holidays Alone

Holidays alone are par for the course,
when everyone thinks you are like me.
It’s better if you make them all think,
you’re really just stupid and lazy.

They invite you to parties and hope you won’t come.
They’re really just being polite.
but when you’re not looking they whisper and point.
And wish you’d just flee with your plight.

So when you’re alone and wishing for others,
never forget the main rules.
Cash is king and so is bling,
and most of them are just fools.

If everybody acted the same,
life would be boring without us.
We forge the trails and fill the sails,
and always see dreamland before us.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Empty & Hollow

You somehow think fate will find you a mate,
who thinks you’re not empty and hollow,
but what you really want to want,
is someone who likes to swallow.

So when you cross paths don’t lose face,
one chance is all that you will get,
it won’t be that hard to get very far,
then forget that you had ever met.

When you wind up at the end of a dark hall,
forget the names and tender embrace,
go for the gold put their breathing on hold,
if not down the throat hit the face.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Working Hard

People who read feel the mind’s need,
to go and be something new.
If the brain doesn’t feed and you fail to succeed,
don’t look at me look at you.

So get off your ass,
and start being productive.
You remember that?
It’s the opposite of destructive.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1,000 Friends

1,000 friends and lonely as hell.
I’m the only one walking,
down this dusty trail.
But wait! what’s that I see ahead?

A house with a pool,
the water blood red.
That is the vision I have in my head,
that makes me get my ass out of bed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Getting Laid

I hate my bed,
I’m always alone.
The only thing I do,
is use the web and my phone.

Maybe things will change,
when my life straightens out.
But that would be strange,
and I’m filled with doubt.

But if that happens,
and my future is made.
I may not remember,
how to get laid.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Liquid Bed Head

I don’t want to get up and out of bed,
no good reason comes to my liquid head.
Yes there’s some food and water too,
and of course the required trip to the loo.

It feels like a light heavy weight,
right inside my aching empty chest.
I guess I’ll just have to again wait,
to be down and out with the rest.

That’s really not much of an issue,
because it’s something I’m used to.
Just be glad it only happens me,
it’s much easier to look but not see.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Veil of Sandess

The last three years,
have been pretty rough.
Forced to my knees,
but now I’m more tough.

If you look through,
my veil of sadness.
There is a method,
to my madness.

I’ve been searching for a movement,
for longer than an eternity.
When the answer for my yearning,
was let the movement find me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Vengeance and Retribution

No one hears,
my cries for help,
Would it be better,
to post them on Yelp?

Screaminc for vengeance
and retribution.
Without the shield,
of an institution.

There is no hiding,
when I find your trail.
You’re much better off,
going straight to hell.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Snag and Twist Season

Pull down the wreath and brush your white teeth,
put this season behind us.
The day after the stay we really all say,
what was worth all the fuss?

So go your own way and live for the day,
never give away your trust.
Because if you do this and you snag or you twist,
just consider yourself bust.

Reach out to others and see what you get,
they nod up and down and then wonder if you’ve met.
Tis the season to eat, drink, buy and forget,
every smile that you waste adds to your karmic dept.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hide and Dance

Go out or stay in,
I should decide.
I need to find,
a place to hide.


From the looks of fear,
and sideways glances.
Except with the girls,
with them I have chances.

So I’m off to the club,
to get on my dance.
Do you wish you were too?
Go ahead, here’s your chance.

But not with me,
it’s safe to say.
It’s up to you,
to dance your own way.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Walk the Walk

Talk is cheap and money will balk,
Walk the walk THEN talk the talk.
Then you will see reality unfold like dream.
Things are never as bad as they seem.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Emotional Spectrum Magic

Being emotionally expansive is magic,
it turns friends into strangers,
To them you’re just as real,
as that baby in the manger.

Even though nothing’s different,
they treat you like you’re contagious.
Every word coming out of your mouth,
to them it sounds outrageous.

So be extra careful,
whom you tell the truth to.
Because if you tell everyone,
the only one left will be you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Future Me

Some people act,
some people sing,
I just sit here,
and do my thing.

Building tomorrow land,
all by myself,
Without the aid,
of even an elf.

But that’s okay,
I like it that way.
Because I get to see,
the future of me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Another Weekend

Another weekend,
alone and stark.
It feels like I’m living,
in the deepness of dark.

The sun, he comes up,
and lights where I walk.
But sometimes I really,
just want to talk.

When the moon rises,
she takes over me.
Alone with just her,
is where I need be.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Inane Brain

I live in a house,
with only one door,
four red walls,
one wood floor.

Just down the hall,
to the left and the right,
six more doors,
one more flight.

I think they all fear me,
they think I’m insane.
Mission accomplished.
I’m inside their brain.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Empire Building

I’m building an empire.
One, maybe two.
First one for me,
then one for you.

Will life be bliss?
That’s not our bus.
The empire we seek,
is running from us.

We’re going in the smart way,
through the back door,
the front one also,
and maybe the floor

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Some Faux Reward

Some faux reward,
may be coming your way.
But not if you sit there,
and do only prey.

Tomorrow’s the day,
they always say,
“Do this or else,
you must obey!

Things are now different,
I’ve got more to say.
Today is the day,
we are now they.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Weapons and Fruit

Three stanzas long,
four lines each.
If my poems were fruit,
they would be a peach.

Just enough words,
to wet your whistle,
If my poems were weapons,
they would be a missile.

But they are just words,
and sometimes a letter.
Fumbled together,
to make me feel better.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My Little Hell

Living a full life,
of self-isolation.
So I may pursue,
a grand proposition.

Weekends alone,
weeknights as well.
Know body knows,
my little hell.

Is it all worth it?
I sometimes ask.
just for a moment,
then it’s back to my task.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fag and Yank

I want to go out,
but should stay in.
What I really need,
is to dance like sin.

The throbbing base,
and rhythmic drums,
makes you want,
to dance till you comes.

But the timing’s not right,
neither’s the bank.
I guess I’ll just do,
with a fag and a yank.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dream Welts

It’s follow or lead,
or get out of the way.
For now I’m a dog,
and today is my day.

They said I couldn’t do it,
so why even try.
But to give up my dreams,
I think I’d just die.

So FUCK YOU to everyone,
who ran from my welts.
You can wait in line,
with everyone else

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Talent and Doubt

Visions of painful yesterdays,
blurred with distant tomorrows,
lead to a long and winding path,
full of torment and bitter sorrows.

A crystal clear blurry vision,
of the future you,
is what is desperately needed,
to be and pursue.

Forget about perceived fate,
or the easy way out.
Stare into your cracked mirror,
see talent beyond doubt

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fox News and Benzoylmethyl Ecgonine

Taking your eyes,
off the path to the door.

Sweet flavored water,
and expensive white powder.
They share the same name,
and some of the power.

Reality sucks,
but illusion does more,
to make you wish,
like it was once before.

Making you laugh,
and sometimes cry too.
“Please make me famous!”
is the cry of this zoo.

Everything is not,
what you think that it is.
Walk through the door,
and become your own Wiz.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bald Pussy

They shaved a pet cat,
for humor and sport.
That’s what happens,
when you drink and snort.

Doing dumb shit,
spend lots of dough.
Is the usual result,
of boozing and blow.

Do that enough,
you’ll get caught up in tort,
Drop the white powder,
or end up in court.

But be number 1?
always rope tow?
If it’s no fun getting there,
why even go?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gold, Oil, and Drugs

Change is the cry they always use,
to get themselves elected.
They make us think that we need them,
because the country’s infected.

The people in charge have everyone fooled,
into believing that they are free.
But nothing could be more untrue,
if you look you too will see.

They sell us security and false hope,
but are really just liars and thugs.
All in the name of what they really want,
Gold, Oil and control of all the Drugs.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shout Horror

Who am I?
Still finding out.
What I know for sure,
is that I want to shout.

At the top of my lungs,
from every street corner,
about all that is wrong,
in our world of horror.

It matters not,
what my name might be.
because I’m always right here,
helping to see.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Melanie Smith

Smith may be common,
but Melanie is not.
It may be Photoshop,
but she looks pretty hot.

Like a Vampiress,
who takes more than souls.
She fills them with strength,
with eyes like bright holes.

But alas she is taken,
damn lucky guy.
The dangerous part of me,
says go ahead try.

An ocean away,
a country too.
I guess I’ll just post this,
and then say adieu.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Perspective

I hope he doesn’t let me down again.
Every time he promises me something he falls short.
I’ve known him my whole life but still he sometimes forgets my name
which really pisses me off.
Every time he walks into the room I want to leave but know I can’t.
Whenever you talk to him you get the feeling something is about to wreck.
I guess I like watching stuff like that.
He is me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dakin Snoopy

Dakin Snoopy,
a very strange name.
I don’t have to look,
to tell you’re insane.

But that’s a-okay,
we are one, they like us.
Now that you are here,
we are now 1 plus.

So load up the pussies,
and come to Frisco.
Your first night here,
we go to a disco.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mating with Shadows

Yearning for shadows,
to kiss and to mate with.
When it’s for real,
is like climbing a steep cliff.

Dim down the lights,
climb into my bed.
I know you want to,
it’s okay go ahead.

When you wake up,
I won’t be there.
Look in my closet,
for something to wear.

Then I get back,
it’s back to the sack.
Just one more night,
unless you put up a fight.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A Room With No View

A room with no view,
is now what I’m used to.
If you don’t believe me,
look and I’ll show you.

Ten feet squared,
no jon and no shower.
Someone knocked me,
from my golden tower.

I’m back on my feet now,
and fighting resistance.
Good thing that I’m full,
of endless persistence.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sarah Jay Oliver

Sarah Jay Oliver,
is a lass from down under.
She makes funny faces,
and talks with thunder.

She is seeking a door,
which she can pass through.
One that is real,
not too good to be true.

She is really quite bright,
and can filter through bullshit.
What ever she does,
is bound to be a big hit.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sea of Sin

A sea of sin,
is where I’d rather be,
than feeling like,
I’m alone and at sea.

So welcome to,
my sweet embrace.
When we are done,
leave without trace.

I’m sorry but,
that’s just how it is.
Come back tomorrow,
when I’m done with my biz.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The World in My Eyes

The world in my eyes,
is so very narrow.
I am the hawk,
you are the sparrow.

Flying in circles,
and looking for places.
Where we can land,
and blend among races.

Out of the shine,
is where we need to be.
To make us feel fine,
so they can too see.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Policy of Silent Truth

Words only do harm,
once they are spoken.
What you seek,
are vows that are broken.

Ask me no promise,
I tell you no lie.
I’ll always be here,
if you need to cry.

Enjoy the silence,
of others you see.
When we’re together,
you stand beside me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Colin Lowe

Colin Lowe,
is so full of himself.
But he has good reason,,
you should see his bookshelf.

The big ones are there,
like trophies galore.
But when you get right down to it,
he’s really a whore.

He makes clever things,
that look thought resilient.
But I’ve got to admit,
he’s a little bit brilliant.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Reverse Halo

A reverse halo,
is just what we need.
To break through the ether,
and finally see.

Dancing on stages,
not like the others.
Side by side shadows,
they’d swear we were brothers.

You’ve got the song,
I’ll back up with dance.
I know that they’ll love it,
if you give it a chance.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A Gallon of Sips

Being with me,
is not what may seem.
I never have fights,
and every thing's clean.

Sure it gets tiresome,
every night alone.
But I get stuff done,
when I am at home.

If when we meet,
and we probably will.
Forget my indifference,
go in for the kill.

When you wake up,
the lion inside.
Forget that you run,
you won’t want to hide.

So arch your back,
and wet down your lips.
I’ll serve you a gallon,
with all little sips.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Haunting Number

The number haunts me,
I see it still.
On every clock,
and window sill.

Nothing is real,
on that we agree.
But if that is so,
who’s reality?

A series of bits,
into your brain.
If you take in too many,
they call you inane.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shirley Brown Betush

Shirley Brown Betush,
likes clever fashion.
She’s the new fetish,
everyone’s new passion.

Technology is a bore,
today and tomorrow.
Apply my psychology,
wade in my sorrow.

Your smile is beaming,
a life full of chances.
One of these nights,
you’ll have all the dances.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Synesthesiac Flavor

It’s a nice new word,
i labeled me by myself.
one that jumped out,
from my old bookshelf.

It reads and looks a bit sterile,
and yes it sounds like pedantic,
let my introduce to you,
my new descriptor, Synesthesia.

It means several things,
one now has my favor.
to hear and see with taste,
to smell and touch with flavor

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Waxing Pathetic

The slinging of words,
waxing poetic.
Something tells me,
I’m fucking pathetic.

Looking for friends,
colleagues and peers.
To keep me away,
from my deepest fears.

That I’m not the sum,
of my thoughts and actions.
It’s really based upon,
money and factions.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Trine Plesner

Give it or get it,
there’s enough love to go round.
Just ask Trine Plesner,
she will answer with sound.

She sometimes wears glasses,
and has a mask too.
A positive outlook,
about the world zoo.

My advice to her,
what ever it’s worth.
Drop the celebs,
come back to earth.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Spewing Lies

Shut up, stand up,
and get the fuck out.
I have no more time,
for your spewing spout.

You’re really not that smart,
and don’t have much class.
Please let the door,
crash into your ass.

Don’t ever come back,
keep your black lies.
If I see you again,
one of us dies.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Will and Order

I’m above average,
and kind of a putz.
To those around me,
I’m known as a klutz.

The dorks all hate me,
the cool and nerds too.
Those like us,
are apart and few.

The day will come soon,
to rise and take over.
All that we need,
is the will and some order.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Whisper and Missed

I need to find shelter,
under your wing.
To hear your heart,
whisper and sing.

I know very well,
that you don’t exist.
If I died today,
Who would be missed?

You do not see me,
or care for my sorrow.
Because you only know,
what’s on tomorrow.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Cold Repose

Chef Boyardee,
is never good cold.
Not that I’d know,
it’s what I’ve been told.

Being poor sucks,
when you know you’ve been rich.
I just had to prove,
that life’s still a bitch.

When I get up,
from this repose.
You won’t miss me,
I’ll be one that glows.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Read it Again

Love is bright red,
sorrow is yellow.
Some poems rhyme,
this one does not.

I want to write poems,
and don’t really know why.
But they won’t seem to rhyme,
so why even try them.

If you think something’s wrong,
read it again.
You do that,
I’ll just sit here and grin.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wish Death

They won’t miss me,
I do declare.
Just before,
I fall in midair.

I spin the chamber,
and the pot gets bigger.
Just before,
I pull the trigger.

She is out there,
preparing a dish.
Just before,
I get my death wish.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kat Lawrence

Kat thinks that she’s empty,
I think she’s not.
May be a bit quirky,
and totally hot.

She digs Mighty Boosh,
they have their t-shirts.
To see her in one,
looks so good it hurts.

I like her in glasses,
with hair that has curl.
No part of the masses,
this is one special girl.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Whore Friends

“Things will be fine” is their common line,
to tell you to just go away.
“Don’t touch what is mine or drink my good wine,
and no, don’t ask to stay.”

“We don’t care if you fail or end up in jail,
where it is you sleep or even if you bleed.
Just keep us mind when your struggles are over,
we love it when you’re rich and succeed.”

Because they’ll be there,
like all the parties before.
Without knowledge or care,
just like a friend whore.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sea Tranquility

A captain with no ship,
is what I’ve become.
The past is the past,
it can’t be undone.

I ask very much,
from my new crew.
But expect nothing,
that I wouldn’t do too.

The seas will be rough,
you need ability.
But just beyond,
is the Sea of Tranquility.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lethargic Jerk

My body says “Sleep”,
the mind says “No”.
The thoughts are racing,
with nowhere to go.

I take lots of drugs,
that sometimes work.
But they make me feel,
like a lethargic jerk.

I miss my old self,
the one with success.
And I’m damn sick & tired,
living under duress.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fun Revenge

I live in agony,
my soul is damaged.
There is little left,
that hasn’t been ravaged.

Stripped of my wealth,
dignity as well.
All by a friend,
too painful to tell.

I wish it were over,
but it’s really just begun.
Now for the hard part,
this revenge will be fun.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Paradigm Dance

Four Leaf Clovers need to take over,
as the new paradigm,
Because when that happens and we all take over,
we can say anything with rhyme.

In a perfect world,
the one just out of grasp.
There is no murder,
or pursuit of fast cash.

We do what we wish,
only sometimes eat fish,
There’s always a dance floor,
and someone to dance with.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Strange Pain Angels

Strange love and familiar pain,
are some things that I have been used to.
Are what’s left in this brain.
all that feels too,

Angels with broken wings seem my specialty,
not before but because of me.
They leave in silence want no trace of we,
not even a fond memory.

They are sending a message,
through shared dance sorrows.
To give us the vestige,
to strive for tomorrows.

Do that and this,
mostly have bliss.
Beyond the black door,
no celebration to miss.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fire and Halos

Please don’t ask me to kill you right now,
let’s go on a trip instead.
We all hit the wall and it’s how far you fall,
not what’s on in your head.

The fire within,
is moving without,
Break free of the chains,
false fear and self doubt.

I will drink you down like water,
till there’s left only liquid sin.
Take off your dark halo,
let us grin & begin.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shutter and Spew

I cry tears of blood,
when I think of you.
You make me shutter,
and want to spew.

The feelings inside,
cannot be spoken.
All of the words,
and letters are broken.

To rip out your heart,
and taste of its flavor.
Will be doing you,
and the whole world a favor.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dance Worship

People aren’t people,
they’re numbers instead.
Moving through silence,
always get ahead.

Get up every day,
and ride to the stage.
Take your small pay,
then back to the cage.

I found out,
the not so hard way.
However you do it,
take back your day.

The ride I’m on,
is a one-way trip.
Because rhythm is my god,
and dance is how I worship.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alone Clone

We all suck dick,
and we’re all fucking whores.
If the pay is enough,
get down on all fours.

If the need for cash,
wasn’t the way,
What on Earth,
would we do with our day?

The future I see,
we’re never alone.
When it’s time to work,
send in the clone.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Your Desire

I’m not afraid anymore of the black door,
behind is where I’ll be waiting.
There is a dance floor and very much more,
and yes even maybe there’s mating.

A nest broken halos,
I lay at your feet.
Along with myself,
seeking a treat.

Take me I’m yours,
for you to do with.
Whatever it is,
you desire or wish.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lurking Rhythm

I know you’re there,
lurking and low.
Waiting for me,
in the moon glow.

Take my hand,
go to the floor.
When the rhythm starts rhyming,
we both dance hardcore.

The floor is long,
a wooden sea.
Into my arms,
you’re safe as can be.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Broken Halo Nest

i know you’re there lurking and low,
waiting for me in the moon glow.

Take my hand, go to the floor,
walk through my black door.

The floor is long and a wooden sea,
into my arms that are empty as can be.

i’m not afraid anymore of what’s in store,
in the dark is where i’ll be waiting for more.

There is a dance floor and very much more,
and yes even maybe there will be mating.

A nest broken halos i lay at your feet,
along with myself seeking a sweet treat.

Take me i’m yours for you to do with.
whatever it is you desire or wish.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If Only Evil

You will never be loved,
what do you want me to say?
If you were only evil,
I’d keep you by day.

You’re waiting for nothing,
except to see.
What’s for dinner,
then what’s on T.V.

Real moving pictures,
the only seed.
To make you forget,
want and need.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Stupid Rich

Please forget me,
leave no trace.
Don’t remember my name,
or even my face.

I know when you’re thinking,
of things that we’ve done.
You remember,
when I was the one.

You broke all there was,
for that stupid bitch.
A life of capture,
and be thought of as rich.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Servants and Masters

I’m not what you want,
don’t look at me.
You’re better off alone,
everyone can see.

The way that you treat us,
is full of disgrace.
You act as if,
you are your own race.

One day soon,
you too will see.
How to serve,
the master’s we’ll be.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Palm Sheets

I feel as if,
my skin is on fire.
When you look at me,
I fill with desire.

It’s a mad world,
we all know this.
But the two of us,
will only know bliss.

Between the sheets,
is where we will be.
Then we rest,
in a palm tree.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tiffany Horran

She likes it alone,
I can tell from her photo.
Tiffany Horan,
is a visual Plato.

She likes making films,
and using black paint.
Sexy as hell,
let’s hope not a saint.

Let’s go on a trip,
where you can sit still.
I’ll take care of your needs,
and pick up the bill.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Question False Time

The tears in your eyes,
I put them there.
That was my first choice,
next I don’t care.

I’m no longer your friend,
there are no tomorrows.
Screw your own self,
and take your false sorrows.
