i simply wish to express my desire

but my poetry is mere embers to the fire

the same rhyme schemes make me abhor

these whorish words

selling themselves to the desperate writer

in need of short lived satisfaction

so in kafka like fashion

trash distracts.

similar to this poor excuse for an anecdote

i saw you in my mind when i was on the train.

i saw you in front of my eyes when i crashed on my bike

i saw you following me as i was dragged round by a kite in the park

i saw you under the l'arc de triomphe hiding in the metal

notes build like bricks
to create structures to be filled
with souls who find home there

words mix like swirling colors in paint cans
making drab and old weathered browns
new blush reds
and starry-eyed blues

we live inside art because we need to know
our slight hope of excruciating beauty
really means something

This bloodied pen is a facade

All talent drained on the promenade.

Eroded words on crumpled parchment

Leave no solace for the "artist".

A conqueror Worm of Edgar's lore

Has seen the light in mirrored ore.

The illuminated cynicism

Adds more iron to his prison;

The Keeper ever vigilant.

Watching slowly? The Dissent.

'Unwanted' Ramblings (Fuck You And Fuck You Too).

Fuck you and fuck you too
An 'Unwanted' ramble dressed as a message for you
Drunken truths spat out in the middle of the night
A knowing clue telling you what I am thinking of you
So fuck you and fuck you

Stirred wind sweep mommas grapevine

Leaves drip from the autumn branches

As the herds move forward

Seeds of vegetables are deeply planted

Among the plantation

Hills rest upon hills

Daydreaming at the heavens

While rested upon grassy hills

Bicycles roll while the dusty breeze goes

Acres of eight mile

So many places to go

Waterfalls deep in the

Eyes lift among each other

Temperature rises as the sun

See beautiful days

Spring has patiently come

Divine seasons escape the before life

We blow as the crystal wind

Scattered shades of darkness

Sin eats its way in

Put oneself back in its cage

She ignored the silent voices

Rainy thoughts remain unvealed

He ignored

What is that noise?

Outside so coy.

 

Slam!  Knock!  Knock!

 

What could this knock on the door possibly be for?

Surely it is no coincidence?
