My thinking guts

            Fingered and fondled

Blatant factuality

             with only one

             obvious conclusion

I am being mind-fucked!

Tips for surviving Valentines

Forced romance will never be better than on a day out of the blue.
Overpriced cut flowers won't outlive the rooted version that'll last a lifetime with the right amount of nurturing.
Roaring overcrowded restaurants are intimateless because you can't speak in whispers.
Sexy is a state of mind adjust the lights all you want.
Societies overinflation of expectations that demand when affection should

Dirty arms wrapped in dirty sleeves

Streaks of snot sun glistening

A holy prayer in holy jeans

The only thing he has left clean

Tiger fades and rabbit reckons

Fade-in

Antennas for ears
Metallique
Cogs wheels and springs de luxe
Tail like a porcupines’ bristles
Machine

Twitchy little thing
Freezes and sniffs
With tinny nose
Stock-straight whiskers
Shining black diamon’eyes

Change is in the air
The wind snarls and shifts
Letting on to
Beware
Maybe

Prison

The walls of this prison stand -
Solidly built in a world of tribulation
The windows of this prison in demand
Of a firmer foundation
Its roots in the sky above
In a spontaneous cloud formation
Or woven into the wings of a dove

At the end of the road
Looking back
Counting along my

A stranger’s heart beats in the dark
Down the lane his tears in vain
Through the night I ask his name
Remember his face time again

Strangers’ eyes you cannot find
In the midst of unspoken words
What was left unsaid a deceiving disguise
Another unknown figure in the hands of time

Step out

A Town Too Small

Naked
as I
stand in front
of blank faces; nothingness.
They refuse to wonder
to dream
Think.
Life's handouts
delivered like mail
to their undeserving fingertips.
Embarrassed; I stand
alone but
seen
collectively. I
plead for independence.
Whisper screams at my
pitiful conformist image.
I stand
naked.
But blank

Back to melancholy back to tears
Back to darkness back to fears

Inside the chains inside the cage
Inside the fear fearing the rage

Chasing these streets chasing the road
Chasing the enemy within me unknown

Fearing the lapse

This city the blood of my wound

A place where dreams no longer exist

Abandoned too soon

It is the star of a never ending darkness a light I cannot resist.

Contained in a world apart divided and restrained

To the living a force unchained.

Peace the world’s pain

To a dead man

The divine call once more
See my heart wage its war
Freedom falls from every face
As we fall from our grace

Steps falling on the snow
Never will touch never will know
Of virtue lost in truth
Defeated below

Cold and sick inside
Tainted is the lie
The lies and the lied

A castaway trying for a better life

all aboard feeling winters bite.

Huge waves roll over the bow. Wow

how the wind howls bouncing me up

and down as I cry for shelter. Rough

seas beg me to turn tail

and I whine

forcing makeshift reef and bowlines

because torn sails from wind
