Poke and prod with swollen atennae.
Another piece of rot lies upon my table.
Kin and acquaintances conspire while I eat my meal;
They'll canabalize my heart; I know they will.
This exoskeleton continues to snap under pressure,
The masters grab the adhesive, "Please take our blessin's."
And then I work.

Enraptured
Captured
Delicately delivered
To the doorstep of your innocence
A girl afire
Sick with desire
Something that you could never alleviate

I began writing my new fate
yesterday
You told me, "Niggas gotta die."
so I let you instead.

I was just a helpless caterpillar
Crawling along the mucke'd mile
Generous helpings of jesus and pantomime
Faking my way through a middle class life
You found me there, exuberant and silly
Sugar straws
Placed precisely

His fingers play a hidden melody,
Of love to his beautiful girl
Innocently holding her hand
With the tune he silently twirls

Cleverly masked by a smile & jovial tone,
Tongues painting only what they want known.
Deceived not by my ears nor my eyes,
Intently I listen as you speak your disguise.
Without any effort I hear what is there,
Many things you're unwilling to yet share.

Crack it, break it bleed it
It’s only my heart
One little part of me
Tear down my bones
Impregnate my moans
Burn your kiss on my lips
Can love just ever be free

This is the type of stuff that folks pay to see
every word that comes out of me
it's all a reflection of my history turned poetry
That you can see for free if you look deep

Awoken abruptly.
Pain shooting from his brain straight down to his stomach
as he catches a glimpse of a leg running out the door,
a trail of blood left on the floor.
Shaking under the blankets,
he tells his right hand to pull the covers down,
unwilling to rouse, this stubborn hand stays put.

Moonlight creeps through my bedroom door
Along the floor and into my core
Recession, regression, depression and more
Our children stood no chance
To hear music made just to dance
Or butterfly fields near caterpillar streams
Baby fingers playing and happy screams

Sun bleeding darkness succeeding
An eventual rolling of her home
Blue ozone pulls back her cover
Two lovers hear each other moan
Promises of tomorrow they’ll borrow
He’ll pay back his solitude with sorrow
When quiet takes back his rattling bones
