Today the trees
are losing more
than their leaves
their lives truncate
split in half
by our ways
or the cosmos
who knows
the theory
of revelation?
Another Dark Flower
Smiles to Herself
Words not as shallow
As fists
bubble
Leaving dark purple
Masks the colour
Of dead blood
Another poet
Smiles to herself
Wavers the words
That need to be said
Airing out the necessary
Photosynthesis
somedays the
dead leaves are tied
to the strings of my thoughts
following my walk
through the city
with tiny shafts of light
antiphony
And you wonder
Just how badly damaged
You are
Everytime you
Walk out of it
Mortal
nothing can kill
lice
nothing can kill
lice
must shave head
must burn clothes

Friends Have Gone
As Did Love
On My Christmas
I am alone
Silence
Slips between us
Once again
Thumbing through the pages
I draw up my pen
Trans-migrate
A whirling dirvish
Lay my sword down
Step back to show
Am I as naked ?
My hands spread out
To hold
My breath as shallow
Announcing
Do I give in ?
flying out to
new orleans
helpin
to pick up the pieces
and roshambo
in the quarter
Hey Monster Magnet is from New Jersey.. I love Monster Magnet !!!!

My kidneys
have filed a complaint
against me
or maybe
it’s my ovaries
either way
this old broad
stresses
the excrutiating pain
perhaps a derivative of
an excessive coffeedrinking
habit
or that I’ve just plain
had it
want to speak gibberish
at it
make it go away
make it stay
no, go.
Just go ![]()
The Devil’s curse
Shadow’s Dance On Kennedy
I see no glimer of hope
To Be alone forever
Destiny Far Above
I understand This now
God’s spoken to me from a ashtray
speaking in infinate glory
I hated but accepted what he had to say
""It will be better, maybe next time around
but this life you’ll wear your frown"
‘But God, you’ve filled me with such inner glory, yet I look and am so miserable what is your motivation’
"I can not give anyone all, my son, You I have blessed more than most, you must understand that, and then you will be beautifull"
‘My Lord, I must be beautifull now, I look and see nothing but pure wretchedness, I am afraid of my own appearance, why did you do such horrible things to me’
"You’re life is not mine to answer, but yours to make, please don’t hate me, It was not a mistake"
‘But your son Jesus Christ, was blessed with all the looks the knowledge, and everything else man could of wanted’
"Yes he was but, my child look how he suffered, you may think you’re suffering now, just think of how much he suffered throughout his whole life, and look what he did for people life you"
‘God, Why, why must I suffer’
"You are not suffering it is only your perception of yourself that lets you"
‘How can I change this’
"Through positive thinking and prayer"
‘Lord, I don’t think I can do that’
"Your will is your own, I give all men and woman a chance at imortal beauty, remember beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I behold all my creations to be beautifull, I so nothing ugly in you"
"Lord may I cry in your presence"
‘I will think no less of you if you do’
‘Thank you my Lord, I need to be up with you soon’
"You allready are, waste not wanting more"
To Rich
I hope you carry
character
and this is not
true face
for the conversation
you have is one
not so,
of common place
a place where ghosts
run nigh
invite your head
and dry
your spirit
to remain tied
to the old
afraid the new
will kill you
keep only
the parts
that willfully
will fulfill
your will
do not glance
too often
at the tawdry
precipice
spilt milk
cradles no infant
Sip Avenue May of hit me hard
As It usually does
I go back for more,
The sauce flows, but I’m okay
learning of Days when Elton was cool
and Days of a new, when black girls are where its at
Do not fear for me,
I’m insane in a safe kind of way
When you have a problem, question where Mars its today
Mars shone bright
last night
The moon peeked
with friendly
cold cheeks
full, round, milky
Mars wants to draw closer
to see
