I find god in the most devious of places,
In monks,in religions castrated
In a strangled bird that sings
I find god without wings
In delusional angst, I claim defeat
What you have is what I need
A parched illusion gives rise to this man's delusion
I am what depletes
I am the scorn that dares to reap
Everyone needs love
And everyone needs to love
Everyone need someone
and someone needs everyone
Humans can’t survive alone
Everyone needs someone
Someone and everyone
Needs someone to love!
It began in silence,
The kind that bruises,
The kind that teaches you
How pain can wear a smile.

It wasn't pretty like the movies
It was ugly
Like what they did to me
A cruelty
I would never place
On anyone's skin.

Bt even broken
I gather myself
Rising from what tried to end me
Proofing that pain
Cannot silence light
Still burning in me.
Hand me a cigarette
And tell me another
Beautiful lie before
The sundown
What a lovely scene...
morning moon
raises
above
the
desert bloom
and
young
lovers
shall
get
here soon
please
stay here
dawn

the
morning moon
I’m a working man, I’m licensed
Working with all three of my vices
Ones got a grip, the other a squeeze
That last one gets me down to my knees

At 14 I learned to like the buzz
Trip out wildly, watch out for the fuzz
I never shot up, only smoked and blew my nose
Forget all the highs, felt all the lows

Now I know better, what can I say
All the things I let make me that way
Should’ve known back then it was a mistake
Remember that when you dance at my wake
6-pack poems
Sponsored by OCD, cold beer, nicotine, and a little of that green stuff.
Blue Sapphire,
Is what I admire,
The Inspirations, and Loyalty
Is what will transpire,
Such a rare, and exquisite stone,
From which beauty is shown,
of the mysteries, and value,
of its virtue is known,
just blue as the skies,
Up so very high,
That Shimmers, and
Sparkles,
a beauty to ones eyes,
a stone you want to see,
as blue as the seas,
a jewel to just love,
made for you, and for me

It was beneficial -
I was young and foolish
life's basic lessons I acquired
the better became my future

the world is never
as one would conceive
much deception does loom
and cause widespread grief

I was foolish and young
wise words from none did I receive
my way I had to find over time
but with experience in well-living I did succeed
