siren

Oh, mighty giant, how I worship from afar. I see a lone, striding tsar. But I may only gape.   Oh, fateful spectre, your visage of a love once known, unearthing the wounds I had sewn. How may I end this pain?   Now, squinting siren, I climb aloft to reach to you. Now my life shall 'gin anew, and I smile at the thought.   And as I jump come close to me you wicked, wicked boy. I am that lovely shattered toy you now hold within your hands.

this careful dance

a faltered glance, a look askance but who would stop to guess the chance?   blushed cheeks with velvet voice yet no one knew there was a choice   a knowing smile, he looks away both know again, again we'll play   one lies yearning, try not to kill this delicate bloom by keeping still   the other's heart, it is unknown unknown as well is what was sown   and so we stage this careful dance leave nothing open nor ope' to chance   e'er part as friends though hope we might I say, go

untitled

I'd build a pyramid and on bowed knee   dedicate it to your memory.   And if I carved up the moon   you would be the first offered a slice.   For I hear your plaintive howl on the wind   and I answer, with bloodied throat, in kind.   Know that when your lonely soul flies the byways of the ether   you do not travel alone.

just as she was taught

She hadn't meant to walk in on her father;   she'd only wanted a glass of milk before bed.   But as the door swung open her ears were greeted   with a deafening explosion.   Blood and brains painting the walls, a dress, her face.   Blood-flecked pigtails quivered,   mouth gaping at a landscape in hell.   She slowly steps to the side of her slumped hero.   Gingerly reaching out to those strong, gentle hands;   recoiling at their warmth, now unholy.   She bends as if guided by

casting no shadow

He is the one betting hounds at the Kentucky Derby,   speaking a foreign language in a familiar land.   He is the one looking for snowstorms in the South,   and predicting rain amidst the desert sand.   He is...   Searching for a niche in alabaster walls,   casting no shadow as he roams down the halls.   Everyone knows him, a stranger nonetheless,   what could possibly ail him is anyone's guess.   He is king of a world,   and lord

standing on the shore

this underground, placid ocean of still sadness   that has always been at my core   usually far below me   but standing on the shore   is like coming home   for a man who dreams of the desert

arctic soil

I ask you, gentle reader, would you scorn   the violet's death in arctic soil?   slave's last exhalation in endless toil?   Could you chide or reprimand   the Indian's rest after futile fight?   the moth's candle respite from his quest for light?   Would you then begrudge me my final rest?   Would I find a cold, unyielding breast?   And if you would that rest but kindly allow,   my final breath a kiss of thanks upon your brow.

two brothers share the night

We settle back on leather thrones, glass and ice our sceptres.   Candelabra lit, the hounds at rest, two brothers share the night.   Tell me, lord, of mountains far, and I shall speak of valleys.   Whisper soft of tears aloft, and I will gale with laughter.   Boast upon your finest hour, while I but moan defeat.   Your nights of black and smiles lack, I will comfort be.   And when laughter wanes and tongues grow weary,   morning's light shall end our night.   We rise but slo

a wanner hue

Those carmel lips that curl so deliciously at the corners on a boy draped in a chair His head falls back to reveal the silky strength of a neck a chest rises and falls as he clenches the air A sharp intake as I sink in his taut belly quivering with the pain Crimson ecstasy flows gently down savannahs of flesh and a whimper escapes from those earnest lips Then white knuckles turn a wanner hue as muscles are laid to rest And a smile plays across my lips as

written about Annie Wilkes from the movie Misery

Oh, Annie, sorry child lost from my breast. Where did you step wrong walking among the mortals? Was it me they saw in your eyes when you confessed? Close your weary eyes while I absolve the rest.   Oh, Dragon Lady, can you smile now your work is done? The voices you hear these shall ne'er understand. Pity to you, for ours is not the way of the sun. Almost finished now as you gently squeeze the gun.   Oh horror, the atrocities and blessings performed in your fight, hobbling those of a

alternate version of Motley Crue's "Shout at the Devil"

I remember concert and marching band in high school. This was written back then in honor of and with much gratitude for our high school band director, Jeff Evans. ( a Patient man )   "Shout at the Band"   You didn't play the allegretto, your notes are all flat. You say you can't play anymore! You got the sixth grade blues, your music you want to choose. If you want to leave, there's the door.   You got your spit valve stuck, you don't give a fuck. And you think I don't give a damn!

ode to a cigarette

Altered and musing on my reverence for Camels. (from long ago)     like a candy box of confections I open it up to sidle my fingers through I choose a carmel beauty and slowly lift it from its shell even dormant it scents the air in the passage to my lips I light; a passionate, smooth dandy mingling his breath with mine

past thoughts on the movie The Human Centipede (First Sequence)

I miss out out with a lot of horror movies. 1) I'm not a straight man. Could we have less titties in these things? Please? Now full frontal male nudity for days would be just fine. Am I a hypocrite? Fuckin' A…maybe I just like the company. 2) I am one of those sick souls who actually thrives, nay, insists on good writing, on a substantial story. (Unless, of course, we are talking creature features and then I am willing to negotiate my standards or perhaps throw them under the bus altogether.) Wh
