17 rue Beautreillis
Dakota J Dawson
Feb 2018
17 rue Beautreillis
A white porcelain
Porcupine
Sits atop
The stool
Beside a resting
Toilet and silent sink
Drains are clogged
Must be the fog
Airing up
Inside the room
Thick and heavy
Full of cream
Like a hot
French Pastry
Soap melts
Into a fine cappuccino
Skin is soft
Not smooth
Rugged
Tired of the water's touch
Lips separated
Leaking drool
An earlier soft drink
Makes its appearance
Sake makes my soul
Gold and sublime
A snowball I received
To the face
Magical cocktail
Island tragedy
In Paris
Couped up
Stuck in a bathroom
Head bobbing
Up
And Down
Swaying
Side to side
Direction unchosen
Ears sweetened
By a tranquil
Heavenly sound
A song
Heartfelt poem
Layne's voice
Shouting from the void
Guitar strings
Beats of a drum
Native quotas
Unremembered
Just peace
No hate
Possible gain
***** to be given
Snowflakes
Fall upon my brow
Hissing in the heat
Chilling a man-made sea
Fingers tingle
Fabricating a jingle
Eyes swell
Blochted art on the walls
Feet numb
Deciding to stick around
Like a sore gum
Withered with gin
My armor
Solid arms
Continue to fall
Down with my divinity
I am Lucifer
Shining meteor of false hope
Chest heaves
I begin to grieve
Hope for a dawn
Pray to hear a new song
But here he comes
I am bleeding
Shaken by the storm
Overcome
Laughter
And crying
This means
I am dying
But,
Is the time right?

2018
2018 is bad
An artist with a silly hat
Ugly fur coat
Solemn face
Hurting and burnt
2018 our fate
Violence is now hollow
Birds still sing
Same songs and melodies
But different strings
2018 my hair
Blond now
Left dry and weak
From the drink
Making me stink
2018 I hate
Individual in despair
Needing some air
A blank slate of the mind
Creativity without care
2018 is clear
Loud as an ocean
Rushing toward land
Crushing against solid realism
Forgetting to dream

Artistic encumbrance
Dakota J Dawson
Feb 2018
Artistic encumbrance
Clouds of ****
Rain an eerie reminder
That I crave a passion
Though I reside
In an emotion
that solidifies
It causes me
to regret
and run
Hindering my performance
Flaky to the core
Refusing inspiration

Atheist in room 208
Dakota J Dawson
Feb 2018
Atheist in room 208
I can't believe
In Jesus
Or Judah
I'm not Jewish
A Hindu
Nor Christian
Christ has forsaken believe
For room 208
Has not been found
I'm tethered to the bed
Lampshade illuminating my face
A crusty ceiling aligns the walls
Doors are locked
Bathroom unchecked
Windows unhinged
Death a possibility
Or is it suicide?
I don't remember
I need love
Literature
To free me
From yearning
Succumbing
To music
Of the hollow
O'Brians grove
Shade of pain
From the triangular window, I see
Against my agony
That I'm clean

Away
Dakota J Dawson
Nov 14
Away
I have lost
Given
And been cajoled
Into dishonesty
A kryptonite
My own bite
Broken
Without a bound
Upon me Broken, sad, hatred
Can’t I
Never untie
Suffering will continue
Sad poem.

Bar Fly
Dakota J Dawson
Jan 2018
Bar Fly
The beast mortified inside
Breast aflame about to burn
Inside he dies
Where the black flower
Blooms into anew
He will seek respite
For past sins
Old grievances
Poured into a summer blue
His *** meaningless
Spite cracks the whip
Plurality the dinner knife
Sanitation foresaw
Without the forceps
Boarding on a foregone conclusion
The spring mattress
Made broken
No time for resale
His' cage, not a solitude
Words obtuse and unabused
Love is his knight
Shining and gleaming
Scornful without hate
Shameful but sane
His burden
The heart
Colliding with the bar

Blue collar or the Dog collar?
Dakota J Dawson
Dec 2017
Blue collar or the Dog collar?
Pop music and Alaskan ice
Whiskey is cool and I'm blue
So too are the bloodied few
Smoke rises and inspires
Creation spirals into anew
Sending geysers ski high
Letting go the rigers of life
A summon of ice
Falling of snow flakes
Seasonal prices are here
Signs gripping onto holsters
Finding *** and coal
Air stale
Quietly rancid
Unholy desperation of breath
Job is old
Feeble are the bones
Lost is the soul

Don't waste youth

Live for the future

Divide emotions
And run

Bold King of Yore
Dakota J Dawson
Feb 2018
Bold King of Yore
I hate god
He devises strategies to invade
His' home and haven
Weakness being the sole characteristic of son
Constant is the spirit
Strengthening his' decedent onslaught
I cannot win
The Kingdom has come
Without any rain
Holding a crown of stone
Encased in gold
Lined with silver
I have no choice
But to worship
The tyrant who controls bold seduction

Can I touch?
Dakota J Dawson
Feb 2018
Can I touch?
Lie to me
Tell me a sweet song
And sweep me beneath
You are gone
Along the wings of birds
Upon halos of sirens
Banshees scream
No ice cream
Still burning here alone
I don't believe you loved
Touch uninhibited
Love withheld
But why do I cry?
You betrayed
And stylized vice

Can't be wrong...
Dakota J Dawson
Mar 2018
Can't be wrong...
I left a note
Badly written
Couldn't read it myself
Guess I am wrong
You belong
To a husband
Who can love
Not the corpse
I see fit
To leave
Now
Perfect
Nothings right
Everyone is a rogue
Empty
Soulless and unkempt
Next city over
Should do
I can't see
But feel
My aching bones
Heart pounding
Attacks inducing a coma
Stroke after stroke
Suicide would be preferable
To this existence
Poor
Broke
I taste wine
Smell roses
Still, he draws near
William
I gave in
Touch and taste
Feel and rhythm
Musical accomplishment
Twisted my tongue
A hindered depth of divinity
God without spirit
Human all the same

Come Unto Thee
Dakota J Dawson
Jan 2018
Come Unto Thee
Smile with a touch
Growl an innate hunger
Climb the pillar
To see
At the cropped top
Lies the crown
Thorny and sublime
Creation bows
Zeus sings
Cries of Osiris
Echo his name
Pulling away the enchantment
Veils tear
Truth gleaming fourth
Constricted scrawls on papyrus
He is here
Setting us free
Throwing down shackles
The sun has risen
Nero has sung
Peter languishes in torment
First a laugh
Another kiss
A second betrayal
True to the construct
Doom is here
Armageddon begins

Confused
Dakota J Dawson
Mar 2018
Confused
Led into bed
Whats the beef?
I need to take a leak
I don't want
You
Cushioned sheets
Fantasy and anticipation
Leaving you
Would be sane
Romanced into
****** depravity
I am drowning
Toward sleep
Unsure about
Tommorrow
Never can be
Loved beside a pool
Champagne
French pastries
Morning breeze
Leaning toward my Jeep
Forcing my hand
For a getaway drive
In the mountainous haven
Mulch
Clay
Pine stained air
Here I am
There you stand
Am I glad?

Contaminated Love
Dakota J Dawson
Jan 2018
Contaminated Love
I'm contained by gin
Soulful and true
Insane but blue
Crimson stains
Withered sheets of satin
Coinciding in my mind
Edinburgh rides high
London below
Call the trolly
Games commence
Justifying my religion
Anticipated revolt
But I sing
And gleam
In Winter's dawn
I love him
Need
And want
Colliding with my palms
Under a prayer of psalms
Ending pitfalls of ***

Cynical Truth
Dakota J Dawson
Jan 2018
Cynical Truth
By the way
To all the cryptic beings
Find a place in my heart
Away from the public
Toward the evening dawn
Bordering the bright blue sea
There you will find grain
Possibly wet sand
Coconuts by the dozen
Enough pleasure
Just the right amount
For a hairy beast
Sadly, it is all lies
A hairy beast
Coconuts in the sea
This poem means nothing
Really that's the point
It really is cynical

Downside of what feels right
Dakota J Dawson
Jan 2018
Downside of what feels right
Can I pry
The gates open
And abstain
I want to be free
Maybe gay
Not sane
I can't configure
The shapes
In my mind
So am I gay?
I love a man
Desire a woman
Contained
And afraid
Of my choices
Nature and pawn
Or creation
And spawn
He sings
She cries
I can only sigh
The walls collide
I crumble
Air unpurified
It will take a while
Maybe a retry
But why?
I'm not a woman
Nor a man
Just a guy
Without time
No crime
Inside
Lust is dust
Plans turn to rust
Turning out to be a bust

Dried Out
Dakota J Dawson
Dec 2017
Dried Out
Slow ride into the black pond
Soot and root echo ruin
Slinging forth pain
She has gone away with the withering dawn
Stopping her silent withdraw
******* fruit with Dawson
Reaping hay in the October harvest
Rings form in her irises
Roles are switched
Rudely drawn wings spring out
Reminding the angels
Rewarding belief
Dunes of gold build up along the ridges
Dried lips soften and rehydrate
Dropping lifeless skin
Divine curvatures are left exposed
Driven off the warm host
Dying in a lonely place

Drunken Stupor
Dakota J Dawson
Jan 2018
Drunken Stupor
****-headed blue truth
Ridiculous rhythm
Obvious amateur at the wheel
Too many drinks
Lots of people
No comfort
Tons of slow feverish drama
Aches and pains
Stopping my mind
BBC has a new article
Football is over
Bar is closing
Where is my soul?
Down in the empty bottle
Away from my grasp
It pains me
To say goodbye
Another year has gone
But its all the same
The kick to the head
Gun pointed at the temple

He lies to my face
Forward the message
Letter to selfish plots
Caught between plight
It just might
Have a name
That is unfounded
"But what is it?"
All the Cupids'
Will ask
Just love
Contamination
Feeling under a dreadful sun
Waiting for
The dome who is
Wanting a soul
In Paris
Upon a boulevard
With the name of a saint
I discover
That toward an atmosphere of passion
You might have almost had me
But
You must
Understand Ulysses
That I tried
Toward your
Solemn town
Ground of rot
In ruin
A dreadful valley
Hoping for god
Aching in pain
Celebrating gain
Where is the sanity?
Here is your home
Is there no guilt?
Many questions
Laced with diamonds
Donny's dreams
Not mine
I sight a sponge
Without a name
So leave
Condemnation
And descent

Hungry for the Rye
Dakota J Dawson
Feb 2018
Hungry for the Rye
I love the lassy
Her name a reminder
Contribution to my youth
She speaks
French so elegantly
Must be my bride
Whiskey to the top
Bear upon Scottish glasses
I find her in poetry
Made by Latin men
The Italian romantics
Gin way off on the horizon
I desire not
To waste away
But I desire a high
Drugs do me not
They are solemn
Without true cause
Give me the golden brew
Mash without hash
A pack with the Devil
Upon route six hundred and sixty-six
Where the grass is dry
Animals eat the rye
Hoping for Gaul
Hating Caesar
Hypocrite of old
Neither Roman
Irish
Or English
But French
Possibly Americano
Spanish in decent
Hot and tame
Without blame
And hate
Going into
Fine literature
Desperate for a land of growth
This must be the old novel
Written by a drunken American
Of old colonial Williamsburg
Indebted to Wickens' Street
Hating London
Eating my bread and butter

Hung without game

Hung without game
Am I that easy?
12:22, he doesn't respond
Trial is ongoing
Lonely
And cold
Hush my tongue
Before I strangle
Constrict the story
To my own ends
I believe in results
Goals and dreams
An endgame
Why can't life
Favor me?
I lose all before the game
The jester hinders
Hopeful gain
Splendid retorts
Speechless
Covered in leeches
Bread and butter
Honey and wheat
Seed and rye
Resides in sandbags
A base without sound
Solid land
Isolated island
Flush away
Hide the burn
Feel a stinging gig

I can't be easy
Dakota J Dawson
Mar 2018
I can't be easy
I want to drink
Until the end
Of forgotten time
Let there be
A funeral fire
Withhold the time capsule
Rustic sounds
Should accompany
Alternating live music
Wood is warping
Bathroom darkening
It all stinks
Reeking of vanilla musk
Some savage old lady
Must have been here
I continue to drink
Without expiration
Giving into temptation
Wine contains a nutty
Whimsical flavor
Reminiscent of cashews
Salted just right
Stored on time
Purity in taste
Test has been passed
No more whims
Just explanations
For why I drink
Trying to write
Avoiding sobriety
Wanting ***
Confusion of the soul
Fusion for sanity
Sunday spreads
Wicked wings
Evil erosions
Condemning my being
Into ice
Deafening to my eyes
Plastering the pole
But in suspense
Avoiding the crowd
Can I possibly contend,
with a biscuit?
Perhaps not

I desire to hear Deutsch, but he speaks the Castilian language
Dakota J Dawson
Feb 2018
I desire to hear Deutsch, but he speaks the Castilian language
I'm overcome by lust
A sophistication of the soul
Mind bent in two
Where I try
He betrays
Leaving kisses of sin
The Garden of Eden is open
Left alone without regard
Not a regret echoed in time
When will he come?
My knight of splendor
Germanic and full of crystallized juice
Reality makes him a Spaniard
To whom my life is bequeathed
Under the sun for all to see
My dream of an Arminius is unrealized
Traded for an exotic intoxication
Ready is the introduction of grieve
But still, I love
The lips
Constant touch of angelic purity
Forgiveness is the actor's end
Truce to end entry into the heart
Producing gratification of natural optimism

I'm Famous!
Drown and bask in the sunlight
Forward unto God
He is sinful
Made for the weak man
He is a cancer
Disgusting scorn of prudent woe
Always showing up
Like "BurgerKing"
Uninvited, not liked
Boring and yet sublime
Where does the confusion end?
Does it include a "Happy Meal"
Pop culture is tiresome
Tripping and stepping into territory
That is unknown, yet still familiar
Why can't it end?
The division and condemnation
Condensed to pitiful morality
Each case moronic
In design and fashion
Seeking an identity
Plotting to overthrow
The status quo
Implanting the negative flow
Stereo is doomed
Electronic in psychology
Dead to the depth

Islands
I drown
Intoxicated
Inside my sea
Crushing waves
Tsunami triggered
Withered morning

I think
***** atmosphere
Lame excuses
Long forgotten
Is it so?
That
I am weak
Broken
Burning
Helpful
Why
Do I
Weep?

Jealousy Unhinged

Jan 2018
Jealousy Unhinged
Cultivating jealousy next to a gay man
Not for everyone
But just right for some
Tons of gossip
Lots of lip
Twisting of tongues
I the square of reality
Phone in hand
Stella at the ready
Fitness girl texted me
Says she is sick
Possibly dying
I don't care
She is number three
Or four
I offer a drink
Celebratory waffles
But to no avail
Church was given
I needed the sin
And received a gun
It had my name on it
With a wet rose
The color solid gold
The texture was cheap
Made in China
Sold to a sucker
I sit spinning and wondering
A question is asked
Does 2018 seem like a refresher?
My reply
In a solemn voice, wicked glance
Hell no

L.A. Gopher

L.A. Gopher
My mound is wet
Probably due to the weather
Lots of rain
It hurts to be a gopher
Small and furry
Yet sublime
The combo of cuteness and evil
Is damning
Leads to bleeding
Getting stuck in L.A. tubs
Fleeing from Sheba the cat
Fighting for grannies' vegetables
There is nothing here
No noteworthy existence
Just all the disturbances
