In a dream I was a battleship
and you were France's foreign shore
Or
I was a mustachioed American soldier
and you were a 25 dollar French *****
Either way
I crashed into you
I was stranded
I slept on your beach for days
Starving & thirsty
But you fed me in other ways.
You sank my last desperate battleship
And as I drifted into water
as deep and as blue as your eyes
I couldn't help but to miss
The comfort and warmth of your thighs.

Last night
at precisely 12 o'clock
I met the devil in
a dark parking lot
I asked him
why he was there and
what he thought

He said
"Oh, I think I'll go
where they all know me
where every gal in town
will offer to *******
and as they bend to their wicked knees
I'll hand them a mouthful of STD's
with no guilt, and no respect
I'll decide what they think,
they'll serve me best.
Oh, I think I'll go
where the crime is rampant
and guns aren't for show
you know,
way down south
toward Mexico"

I said
"Oh, I know that place
won't have to show me
I was there last week
the bartender knows me
but I didn't realize she had
a disease
can you heal this for me,
if you please?"

"That's sick,"
He said,
"But I know the feeling,
I am sorry, but
I don't do the healing."

"You've got the wrong brother,"
He said with a laugh,
then he grabbed my **** and
he bit it in half.

"I don't do grace,
I don't do blessings"


There was blood on his face
as he lapped up the dressing.
I had a dream once that the Devil Himself bit my **** off.

i found a napkin
with this number
on it
in my jacket pocket
it reads 10pm and
a badly scribbled heart



why is my underwear the only thing that i am wearing that smells like *****?

I'm only doing
something this
short because
maybe I'll belong.

i am illumination

i am the greatest idea you've ever had,
skittering across your mind at 1:17 am
i dare you to catch me

i am elimination

i am the empty space where
your dream should be
i dare you to sink into me

i am concentration

i am your great brow furrowed in frustration
twittering fingers and fidgeting knees
i dare you to set me free

i am disintegration

i am your subsequent writer's block at 1:20 am
because
everyone knows
the greatest idea you've ever had
vanishes into thin air
as soon as you find a pen.

One thing
I never liked
about teachers is
how they
browbeat you
with logic and stale ideas.

I find hope
when there is none
But love is a fine wine

I sleep when I'm tired
I fight when I'm drunk

I'm always tired
I'm always drunk

I lay my head down
on your shoulder
If my head is light
I am drunk

I see your headlights
over my shoulder
My head is not right
I am drunk
