Would you allow me to delicately ooze myself down the length of your scratchy throat? -- I'm in need of a new home The newly blaring sun makes me oh, so sleepy and weepy to the point of bursting, A giant, punctured pustule, oozing, Ooze with purpose, is all I was taught to swallow, A little **** and milky -- the taste is not for everyone

Summer is slow to come
Pulse echoing in the hollow canal of my ear, A sweet, persuasive sound that initiates the craving, I want to taste you in the sickest of ways, Like itchy centipede legs discovering the back of your throat, A discomfort only a thousand sips could quell, I’d like to think I could resist, I know better; I’m only realtime flesh, Slowly rub your cheek against my chin, I’ll dip my nose into your neck and use my tongue to caress each striation, Until I can taste the carotid reaching toward the holy switchboard, My jaws will not be denied, closing vehemently, Penetrating the silky dermis, ragged vents meant to pourpourpour Vital lifeblood and sustenance out into useful globs of passive alertness, You are a beautiful, tormented creature in which I can bear to look at no longer. I cannot see you as you are meant to be, I am deluded and biased.. Sent to realize truth, only to find no definitive, I will relish bringing about your end as much as my own.

To Mankind
Looming night and artificial light, A pendulum delicately balancing, Draped whimsically As if held in place By an invisible sheer force of will, Hanging, bustled from a rigid, Spine-straight brown-black Pole etched into by the Fluorescent light that Paints the golden leaves A glinting orange duo-chrome, The leaves flinging themselves On to the hard, barely-breathing ground, Gasping only when no one will notice, Paved in a rainbow of greens and faint yellows, Steady and straight as far as The eye can tell, Hoping the chill will turn to wind To carry them away from The only mother they’ve ever known, Stable ground below offering A fresh beginning and a bed For the leaves to reside in While they look for a new place to call home.

The Struggles of an Adolescent
scrawny leaves meandering carefully, in a stifled way, daydreaming of kissing the clouds at dusk

Passing Fancy
To fall into old habits Can be all-too-easy, Magnetic brushing With all the wrong people, Sight averted plainly, Dramatically to onlookers, Stairways of winking lights Coloring eyes transparent Globes of passing motion, Streaming flurried static images, For the reason of familiarity, Fighting the monstrous Urge to flee from the Hollow gust of self-assurance, Leaving behind a sense Of restless guilt, Cater not to this instinct— Burn alive in resistance, From this, arise and blink Through the ashes Until a new perspective Is revealed and Cannot be ignored.

In Search of Fulfillment
I want nothing more than to be enveloped in your warm breath and molded into by you scouring eyes.
