Dinner

I am cold.

A little hungry.

It doesn’t matter.


I am tired.

Time to bung me

a fish in batter.


Chipper chips.

Mushy peas.

A can of Fanta.


An egg.

An onion.

Vinegar staining the...

Old friend

“Old friend.”

That’s the term.

I forgot that I’ve known you for minutes,
because I feel that it’s been as
long as I’ve known how to
tie my laces,
or properly know how to discern
the difference between
the “show” and
the revelation

A fire of glass and sharp objects

The flames burning minds
My mind will never be the same
Do you hear the calling of winter bells
Or is that the silent screams of a broken brain

One, two, three, four
Once alive now a rotting mush
Five is me
A living being inside a corpse...

Threads of death

If you ask the long-haired metal fool,
she’ll tell you one possible version of the truth.

She knows the way to break on through.

As do you.

As do I.

An obvious ‘s cool.

You left it in the CD’s eye.

“Oh no! How did that get...

Holy of Holies

I long for the inner sanctuary;
There I'm tucked away from all grief and care.
Alone with thoughts at once sublime and rare,
I inhale a better, purified, air.

Free from the rustle of the outer world,
Free from its pain and worrying grief,
I...

Eden

In a sunny, breezy foreign strand,
She quietly gave me heart and hand.
The azure waves serenely rolling
Lazily lapped the silv'ry sand.

Coconut leaves were slowly stirring
The breezes, salty tresses blowing,
A sun-soaked Elysian land,
...

The pain in your eyes.

The pain in your eyes.

Your eyes show a soft glow, yet your pain, I can see a shadow. Your heart whispers, but it's unheard. I can feel the gentle touch and your warm smile, yet I can hear your silent scream that hangs in the air under the moon's...

This Is Me

Bright: I have a light that sparks up a room through my smile, presence & kind words.
Revel: I like to dance to music & have fun with my friends no matter what we're doing.
Intelligent: there are certain topics that interest me.
Talented: I have...

Know Thyself - Socrates

More size than energy.
Me.
More of a big shot.
Another degenerate artist.
But still getting things published.
Wow!
Graf found out men are pigs
and she turned out like the rest …
… now raising a...

Outsider

Where I sit
to eat
Where I go
to commiserate.

My colleagues are there.
Commaraderie is happening.
There is no chair for me.
For me, there is no welcome.

The club,
I am not a member.
All aspiration of respect
has quickly become an...
