Run along selfish ego,
Or twice a Picasso
A conscious whispers’
The core of an afro
Art dreamz, I pray
As Jesus did for me
Bleak poems of dreams
A couple canvas’s of poetry
Held on intensely,
By a Van Gogh piece in blue
Run along sleepy eyes,
Downing in dripping hues

I leave to you a life 

Clamped in a bucket of legacy

I leave to you peace 

Love and lush fantasies

To whom this may groom

Please live for the night

Conversations over coffee

Cigars and city lights

May your days be May

Till the bliss of December

I leave to you clarity

May the name be remembered

Sincerely, Spells

She launches open the front door, slamming it off the wall.

Bolts up the stairs, two at a time.

Her hands clasped tightly,

Held as far away as her arms will let her.

Her head back with a look on her face

As if she were holding a tarantula

“Hey baby”

“Hey you”

“What are you up to?”

“Not much, just writing..”

“Yeah? What are you writing?”

She looks at the paper.

It reads: I’m sorry.

“Oh nothing, it’s stupid.. What are you doing?”

Leave me alone

No wonder they fade by day

Leave me stoned

And let my lows burn away

No wonder they fade

Sour dreams in these feans

A loner I stand

Inside my junkie genes

A Christmas Snow

With all this rain,

And not a snowflake in sight

Aganist my window pain

Looking for Santa tonight

The tree is up,

And the kids are fast asleep

Dreamin' of a white Christmas

As the rain turns to sleet

Sleep my children,

As Santa steers his slade

Dreamin' of a perfect Christmas

A snowfall on Christmas Day

Words can come at such an invaluable price,

The ability to express yourself through words,

Is under-rated.

Struggling with the stories that need to be told,

The starts and stops,

And crumpled up papers.

The poetry shred into confetti,

Because it makes better sense that way.

The fear.

Favorite person,

Created by Gods themselves,

She is mine, and I always love her,

Even when I'm not myself,

Favorite person.

Dark, sweet, chilly air,

Hibernating blankets to be found,

Cuddles to enjoy.

You get to the point,

Where you hate your fucking self,

So you try to die.

I Just Called to Say

I just called to see if you could talk,

To tell you Merry Christmas,

Or at least that's what I said,

Because obviously you couldn't,

 

Stop to say hello,

Not even for a second,

I could tell by the quick way you answered,

How you been?,

 

Good.

And so I asked about your life,

And you breathed into the phone,

Letting me know you didn't have a good connection,

 

So I chose not to tell you,

That I've missed you again,

That I dreamt of you last night,

Of Christmas at Aunt Gwens...

 

I chose not to tell you,

That I dreamt of your voice,

I had to call you,

I wasn't given a choice,

 

But thank you for being so...

Preoccupied,

A little of your life,

Did you let me spy,

 

You're still the same Topher,

Just grinding the stone,

And maybe I'm not the only one,

Who feels so alone.

Nightcaps with Marilyn

Over marshmallows and lit joints

She laughs the night away

Thus buzzing from the times

Of her and JFK

We grin and more giggles

Conversing as if for years

She laughs a bit more

Oh Marilyn, my dear

I’ll paint your toe nails

Just stay my dear

Smoked joints and cigarettes'

Offshore of Cape Fear
