Yet I find
A cold sky
A lost soul
In a mirror
Of time
The clocks face is mine
And yet I find
The end of the line
Inside
All these gears keep turning
Ticking toward the warning
Alarm
And yet I find
I was awake the whole time
Staring into a space
That conquered my mind
The room wasn't spinning
It was my eyes
They were so focused on quitting
Life
Yet I find
Myself crawling
However I wanted to climb
But I'm on the floor of falling
Hardly alive
I don't want to die
But I just might give it a try
Yet I find
Myself stalling
Hoping for a different calling
Than falling on a knife
The sky is so cold
And the mirror just told
My soul a lie
And as the second hand
Whispered to the minutes
How he wished the hours would die
I heard the chime

The Steering Will
JaxSpade Oct 2019
It was one of those car rides
Windows down
And the wind blows moribund

As you beg for the cliff
On the edge of your prerogative
You wish you could crash
To ecape your roguish metamorphosis

What ever happened to that old you
You never used to drive with such turpitude

You used to hug those curves
And sing with the radio
Smiling with your eyes fastidious in stereo

It was one those rides
With redolent flowers on the countryside

You pulled into the rest stop
To tilt your head back
And regain your consciousness

It was one of those rides
When you decide

I shouldn't be driving like this

Free Candy
JaxSpade Jan 2019
Free candy
Come and take a swipe

Rub it on your sweet lips

             But don't you bite

Licking and *******

On free candy

A little sugar
   A little high

Taste so good
With carbohydrates

It's free
It only cost your time
             To take a piece
                  
                         And yum

The Fallen Rain
JaxSpade Mar 2020
Letters keep falling
In a deep rain of torrential columns

I pieced together a few droplets
And scrambled them together
In a gourmet concoction of an omelette

I fed them to the audience
And they ate my little burritos
With some Awesomesauce

Then I fingered some vocabulary
For a dessert orgasmicaly
And this alphabet kept feeding
The crave

I was a slave
To the letters that rained

I felt the urge to rearrange
In some type of arrangement
That could explain

The phenomenon

How could this happen
Without the intervene
Of the One True God
That wrote this in the Book of lamb

Our Names and Being

Letters keep falling
And I've gathered them all in

But unfortunately
I still don't understand
What they mean

His Umbrella
JaxSpade Sep 2019
Tears in her eyes
Who'd make it rain

Under his umbrella
Dripping mascara

Who'd heal the pain

It all started with sunny skies
Green grass and butterflies

But who'd bring the end

Tears in her eyes
Who'd get em dry

Maybe it could be him

Under his umbrella
She wept a well that
He would wipe away

Tears in her eyes
He'd make em' dry

And she would love again

Kiss Of Death
JaxSpade Nov 2018
The kiss of death
Press your lips
Pucker up
You're all wet
Your charcoal eyes
And silhouette
Cast the shadows
Under evils breath
I see you out there
So passionate
Sliding your fingernails
Across several men
The kiss of death
Invites intimate
Souls for buying
Pornographics
Press your lips
Against the blackest lips
Sink those fangs
In the barest neck
Death kisses
And dark mistresses
Have your ***
Plenty of fish
To trap your nets
Kiss of death
Sink the deepest depth
Bury that tongue
In the tar pits
Pucker up
Boy
To the darkness
Pressed
You're a man now

Dead

Behind a light shone
Targeting an arrow

Darting toward the targets

In the direct
          Shone

Popsicle Stick
JaxSpade Apr 2019
I found my death
On a popsicle stick
The ******* melted the lick

In the middle of throat
The cold froze my lips
That wooden handle
Was found on the floor of my wish

My brain froze
And my tags toe'd
My body's bagged gift

Ever since I became an adult
I was a kid
Born into a womb
The world would spin

Ice cream
But no one heard
What my voice did
I found my death
It was born in my last breath

I screamed
As the cold dripped
Everything I was looking for
Vanished

On a hot summer street
A melted popsicle
Puddled around stick

That wooden handle
Was the last thing I did

This lil
Dragon fly

Came across the waters
Of my eyes

An electrical
             Blue
               Foil
          With glitter

Where i looked
A lot

She danced
And from a ponds glance
Her wings held a beautiful body

               I noticed

When she flew by

Past

She didn't say anything
But anything
Said she laughed

I saw her smile
Taller than a giraffe

This lil
Dragon fly

Buzzing around

Write of way
JaxSpade Oct 2018
I won't write away
The right of way
Of me at a four way stop
The sign says go

If you're on the left side of a cop

Pull me over
Tell me I'm wrong
Maybe I've misinterpreted the law
Charge me a fine
If I don't comply
Money will make it alright

If it's not

I won't write away
Anything said or mentioned above
The right of way allows me to make
The best decision I've got

We all have arrived at the same time

I yield,
But I still crashed hard

Because even though I obey
The others will wreck
My car

Atomic Rain
JaxSpade Mar 2020
Moments of fire
In a passionate rage
She's my desire burning away
I can't stop this feeling
Begging for yours

And I can't help revealing
All my love

This fire is an atomic rain
Au revoir
The cold and pain

The mackerel sky
Is a thoroughbred
Racing higher overhead

And I keep falling
Into your eyes
They just
Caught me
And pulled me inside

This fire is an atomic rain
Au revoir
The cold and pain

Into your arms
I melt away
We make fire
In a poetry

And i can't stop this feeling
You create
I just want to kiss your pretty face

Moments of fire
Burn away
The flames grew higher
Than we could ever pray

This fire is an atomic rain
Au revoir
The cold and pain

We made love over again
And I can't help revealing all my love

And I keep falling into your eyes
No one can make me feel
just like you have

You're my desire
Burning away
We lit a fire
And made love in the flame

This fire is an atomic rain
Au revoir
The cold and pain

·hot fire·
JaxSpade Sep 2019
The fire embraces my eyes
Every flame is a dancer
I admire

She caught me in her flicker
Staring at her figure
I need her warmth
On my cold hands
To cure my shivers

Sitting by the fire
I admire each flame
Burning away

Every ember I trace
Is a warm embrace
Crackling and popping
In the cool night air
Soothing my face

My cold cold hands
Need each flame
As each one waltzes
Across my pupils

Watching
In a daze

The fire caught my gaze
And whispered stay
Add another timber
Don't let her fade

Her warm embrace
Captured my eyes
While the flames danced
Into the night

Across the ballroom floor
They wrestle with warmth
Arm and arm
Burning hearts

That warm embrace
Of desire
Caught my eyes
And lit them

On fire

I found your shoe
That left your foot ****
And my thoughts of you
So bare

If i could find the eyes

Before the time ran away

I would give her a happy ending
Instead of pretending
This was a fairy tale

JaxSpade Mar 2019
There she was
Standing in the rain
Like a flower
With a sun shower on her face

Such a weird day

With the rain and the sun
Holding hands
While my thoughts escaped

There I was observing
The beauty of today
It didn't care about my mirror
Or the mole on my face

I was caught in a sun shower
And a beautiful girl
Wiping off her makeup
To reveal her how her true skin was made

She looked so much better
In the sun shower

Perhaps that is why it came

I'm wide awake
Watching my ceiling
Stare back at me

It was saying all kinds of things
Telepathically

I couldn't believe
It was talking back to me

I'm wide awake
Staring at my ceilings face
It started talking to me
Felt like I was on some LSD

The things it was telling me
Filled my brain
And I'm wide awake

But now I'm not sure
Because my ceiling
Is talking back to me

No, I'm wide awake
I pinched myself
To make sure this was real
And I wasn't imagining

My ceiling was lecturing
I was staring at the white cottage cheese
Mentoring

I was there too long
Because then I heard the walls

And they starting closing in
Then I felt real small

And the floor started
Swallowing me whole

I didn't know where to go
So I jumped out the window
To my soul

And that's how I ended up
In this Institute
For the mentally gone

I'm wide awake
But my ceiling says

I should go back to sleep

Thirsting for water
He lays on a desert sand
Drinking a mirage
Of what's not hear

Looking to the sky
Praying to the air
With nothing to quench
His dispair

A traveler comes near
To offer his share
Yet delusion won't allow
Him the care

He's dying of thirst
Believing the worst
When the water provided
Was there

Sunshine again

Another cup of warm
For mugs

Good afternoon
The morning left
The room

I was left too
With a cold mug
And nothing to do

Maybe I'll kick up my feet
Get something to eat
Smoke some ****

And go back to sleep

It's my day off
And I can be sloth

If I want to
I should

Start by doing
Nothing

With a portion of truth
To **** the lie

Because the piece that puzzled

To lift you back up

Make Believe
JaxSpade Dec 2019
If I could just pretend to live
I could die inside my head

Because my body is just a host
For the soul of my ghost

On the other side
Living in someone else

I am the figment of my Gods creation
Inside his devils throat
There I am paddling

Through the darkness unfurled
Into the belly of the beast
Where I am swallowed

If I could just pretend
I'm somewhere else
If I could just lie to myself

I could pretend I'm in heaven
As a Holy ghost

As the perfection of a man
Hidden from the worst

If I could solve in my imagination
And proper my education
Perhaps I could learn some appreciation

I could embrace the succ
And decipher a new interpretation

If I could just lust for the love
And just pretend
I'm good for someone

I could die in their arms
If I just pretend to live

Mask

                                        Tracks
          Of human foot stamps
Measuring inchpounds

In the aftermath of cells born
                                              Fast
Unless your slower
Than the tortoise who won the hare
                          By never kicking back
And he's running the race
Faster
Than the stat
Paced ahead
Of the rabbit in a hat


You look like a gastropod mollusk
But what you talking about Willis
When the race is almost finished
God will end it for us

Under his own sun
The moon reflects
The glow within us spinning

And
        We

Open the black
Of the dark
With the light of our axe
Lamped harder then a
Sword in a battle of impacts

Cracking open that darkness
With the sharpness
Of a knife cutting light
In the battle for an armistice

We fight

The fauceting flow

******* on my lie
I fooled her eyes
And like a lollipop
She licked the sides


Slurping up my slys
I hid the surprise
Of deception
And
She licked it all night



Everything she wanted to hear
I said
She kept eating out of my hand
So I fed



Lie after lie
And I painted her eyes



So the only thing she could see



Were mine

It wasn't black
That couldn't breath
Under the knee
Of the law

What we saw
Wasn't black
It was a man

Choked out

It wasn't a white cop

It was a cop
That knew no love

We blame it on color
Instead of each other
The stats know

It's a fact
Evil lives in whites and blacks
It doesn't care where you came from

As long as your mad

And it will take that angry
And riot a whole mob

It's hate
That murders and rapes
Every good thing we shape

Whites and black
Were starting to get along great
Till the Democrats divided us
Listening to the news fake

People are irritate
Tearing down their own state
When they haven't recognized
Who the enemy is
In their face

We find the gullible
Finally awake

But the question is Now
Is it too late

Beauty is in the eye of the mind

Even if you're blind
You could see inside
How the heart could be a prize

Underneath the paint
Beyond the canvass
Where the textures were born
And where the true colors harvest

Beauty is the state of mind
That keeps the beholder honest

It is the true love that gives regardless
Of what the outside world ponders as flawless

My feet are froggin' out

Hoppin' around
And I keep falling
Falling down

I

Hoping to reach
The smallest paradise
                  Fooling around
Groovin' to the sounds of
                              Howling

The moon calling me out
Before morning
I keep falling out of conscience

I'm on a pond with frog legs
But I am no prince

A kiss could change me

I keep falling

             Fallen
                         down

To the bottom of all this

And when I look up
                    It's so tall
                   All around me

And when I look down
I keep going down
                 The spiral

Looking for help
But no one is coming

                Now

I'm a tree frog
Hoping around the forest

And I keep falling
I keep falling out of conscience

I keep tumbling down
And my feet are froggin' out
Hopping along the waters

I'm no prince
Or a knight
In shining armor

I'm just a man
Or a frog

Falling down

I've been waiting
For the sunrise
To crawl out
From yesterday

I can hear the town
Cries
Mumbling about
What passed away

Counting down the days
Like the calendar
Has something to say

About how long
will ever
Live another
Sunrise made

I've been waiting
On the moon sky
Watching in phase

Under the starlight
In my mind
As I gaze

I've been waiting for
The same time
I take

Chasing the clocks
Arms
As far
As they reach

Waiting
On a time-line
While the hours
Speed

I see a checkered
Flag
On the horizon
Waving at me

Going 100 miles an hour
I slowed down
And waited
On the track
Of the humans race

For the end to come

When I shined
A light
On its face
JaxSpade Apr 2020
I guess I'll dye my hair blue
I'll be the color
Of the rarest moon

When the black powder plumes

I'll be the moonlight
That shines through

Casting shadows
Creeping around crawls

Following the alley cats
Pernicious prowls

I comb my hair with a fish comb
A blue wave over my wisdom

I guess I'll dye
In the azure sky

At the end of the fireworks

It was like a green light
                     In my eyes
And I became the traffic
With mine

...We kissed

And all over my face
Was that green shidt

                 She left

My flesh a shade of moss

She was trying to be goth

But I took it all off
With my good mood
And bullocks

She wore green lipstick

     And I split those lips
     With some love
     And a long tongue

                       Vicious

I never seen a girl wear it
Like this b#%!

                   She was delicious
On the other side of the fence

And she sure is a whole lot greener
And well kempt

A little greenage

             Was all I needed

Playing With A Fool Deck
JaxSpade Dec 2019
In the art of sublime thoughts
I hear the last shot
Ring a rang
In the barrel of the tarot
The cards turned their arrows
As the last card said
Bang
It was then I heard a sparrow
Chirp on a scarecrow
That couldn't scare the thoughts away
The cards on the table
Finished their fable
As the last one played
My last look at the deck
Before the noose wore my neck
I saw the jack of spades
In the art of a sublime poet
All his words went away
And before the world knew it
He disappeared in the fluid
That flowed in the back of his brain
Ring a rang
It was the last sound
That was never heard again
Bang
The only sound left in the room
Was the dropping of his pen

Deaths Bed

Your eyes opened
And saw the sun in the sky floating
It was too bright to stare at the light
But you stood there hoping
It was the last time
You've awoken

The night came
And fell on your name
A blanket of darkness
Tucking you in

You laid there sleeping
As morning came creeping
You arose weeping
Because it wasn't the last time
You were seeking

Another sunrise
In the worlds demise
Of evil beings
You're still alive

Yet the sun killed the night
And your dreams

To live
To die
To live in another place
You could wake to peace

Comes nigh

And you await
Another days fate
Hoping you won't awake
The next time

Tick
         Tock

        As the Suns clock

Waves its last goodbye

The Door That Won't Open
JaxSpade Apr 2020
Tryna shake me up

I'm on the faultline
Pointing my finger at someone else

Is this a tight rope
Or a noosed throat
I felt the earth quake
And it shook me up

I keep blaming the weather
I thought climate change would sell better

Perhaps a virus
Or a swarm of locusts
How about a few more warning signs
For me to believe in the hocus pocus

I need someone to explain
The birth pains
Because I've always wanted to
But I never came

To church

To and fro they'll search
Just like the prophesy said
But you never learned

You were left
On the outside of the ark
When you saw the rain

But you waited and procrastinated
And it was all too late

The door had closed

And you drowned in the death
You paid to the wage

That cost yourself

Through the cotton mist
We saw the rope of the lights lift

A beam from a lighthouse cliff
Pulling us in from the highs and lows

Bobbing
Like a fish for his bait
The Light moves up & down,
We crave
It gets bigger every minute we take
This lighthouse,
Unto our swim
She brings land & hope within
Thank you Lord for the light of my fins
& allowing the shore

Who's Counting?
JaxSpade May 2020
The hours track my count
They watch me fulfill the clock

All the gong strikes
Fallen upon my bout

How many more rounds
Before I win
Or get knocked out

My energy tracks my strength
How much is left
How much more can I take

The calendar tracks my days
It watches me waste
All the years fly
Faster than the blue
In the sky
Paints

And as time cries
Her goodbyes
Memories fade and die
Eventually we all
Get x's in our eyes

All we can do
Is enjoy the ride
Kick back
And follow life
God
How much more daze
Do I got
How many more suns
Will my shoes
Travel on

As my destiny counts my fate
I grow into an old age
And my youth counts my aches
How many more pains
Could a man own today

All I can do is pray
Somewhere there is a heaven
Waiting for my face

I'm getting closer
The distance counted my measure

And I'm close to the treasure

But I
Still

Have to get there

No matter how long
                    It takes

Me And Myself, I
JaxSpade Apr 2019
The impossible dream
Starring me
Killing myself
And I
Can't wake
Countless visions
Rhyming in sync
Appearing a ghost
Out of his shriek
The impossible dream
Starring me
Killing myself
And I
Can't wake
I strum my guitar
But I can't play
I don't have a guitar
Just a handful of strings
I've tried so hard
And hard has tried me
When I'm awake
I just want to sleep
So I can dream
The impossible dream
Starring me
Killing myself
And I can't wake

too... pretty
JaxSpade Sep 2019
She's too pretty
For an old shoe
A walk in the park
    With an old sole

She's much too beautiful
For a gray sky
Much too...

For an old soul

              Pretty

For a silver moon
           Candlelight
           And a heart
                   Blue

She's much too everything
                 Yesterday knew

     For an old fool
A shot in the dark
By a sparks mood

She's much too pretty
For an old youth
   An old song
That was new

Pretty for...

           You

           Know
The way she eyes
Your old heart

             Inside

                    You know
She's much too pretty
To like

Beautiful
For a rusted mind
       Too everything
For what you might

Consider alright

   Pretty
Tonight
