69/F I spent my formative years in Japan, and danced in the Royal kabuke theatre in Tokyo and Sasabo. / / I am originally from Los Angeles, but have lived the last 15 years in Denver, CO. Now I'm back in S. California.
Its the emptiness And where it takes you. The small pieces of invisibility That follow you around Your living shroud The screaming crowd. Its hiking backwards up a Tartarus steep hill And finding yourself still firmly planted at the bottom. It can catch you in the throat The way dust Collects thickly in a storm Of resolute beliefs And philosophies Of cinders afire.

Grieving The Innocence
In my dream, we... You and I, will always be in Some Eternal Territory, by which romance\kindness will cure our aching hearts.

Ouuuuuuh look at you go Look at you sliding Sliding into home plate. Watch as you destroy the darkness, With the ease of the Pros Look at you go. It won't be long now Sweetness will be overflowing like a waterfall Of sadness. Just keep going, keep fighting, keep winning. Cause that's all that's left you.

Home Run
Swimming in a sea of souls She captures eternity for a moment Then moves on. It's the bait that gets you There transferring feelings for feelings The negotiations of the soul. Clinging to the chunks of refuse For a second. Then down and further down You appear with contract in hand The salt stinging the wounds you have left her with.

The Deal
Have gone through many portals surfing on the timelines of indefinite universes listening to Sate having a triple bipass in the dark without the sleep of twilight upon him. The 3 girls are stars sailing in the night sky, leaving the last one with me, feline and fragile, an aging, withering vessel, like me, her only mother. I have played in the desert with a madman. I have climbed the mountain with Sisyphus . I have been gutted for the last time. The freedom is astounding to have made it this far, this far. Hearty laughter replaces tears, or rage. I know you think you are smarter than everyone else, a trickster, such a clever fellow. I have found you out, and think of you as a poor man's version of little blownapart...short, a little pawn on the board of life. The other psychopaths are so much smoother than you, and the *** is so much better. You know, I can't even remember your name.

HOUSE OF CARDS
You are but an echo Of past betrayals And pain You are an echo Of my psychopathic mother And the abortions swimming in my mind You happened after all of the pain and joy and excitement. Of a life well lived. Choreographed by the masters. I want you to know You are an echo And nothing more.

You Were Everyone and No One.
To you who laugh under waterfalls Of Vengeance And irrigate with ***** Let me say, how even blindly You are without joy. To you who taste the sweetness of destruction Castration And pony up on your last bet. You will only have wine glasses full of acid Spiked by each other in the Cave of truth.

Psychopaths...
That face is excruciatingly beautiful Blinding as platinum confetti For the new year of the soul She is my conch shell When I hear her, I hear me That body is hauntingly whole Strong as a steel gerder and just as smooth For the structure we are building She is my mirror When I see her, I see me Those hands are soft as silver Holding the pages of our life Strongly into the new book We will write together.

Pressing Orchids
They act like they don't know what you're doing Assuming you're doing anything At all. Your writing is always possessive Your photos are always of you Narcissist. She acts like it's all working with the precision of a clock I know what goes on behind closed doors with you I'm so glad I know how truly miserable she is...

Notorious
I cast away my narrow waist Whale bone my rib cage You open me up to demolition My voice is silent As you split the seams Of a world I was far too fragile for Living, the flash of liquid light Turns the horizon on it's end. The lies you fabricate, a master Storyteller by design A lowlife criminal With overwhelming needs
