You ripped the cover off my paperback book. I turned and looked and protested that you must've made a mistake.  “This is my book, you ripped my book, not your book.” You looked up from your position, seated on the floor, to me seated on the bed and said “it’s okay, I just wanted it to look like mine, see?” and held up your copy reassuringly, cover absent from its mangled spine. You held up your copy and offered it with all its tarnished pages and sweat-smudge ink stains. I took a breath—like an injured kid the moment after a fall, the moment before wailing, the moment before blood—that gulp of air before it manifests.

Feels like I’m making up for all the time I’ve wasted in silence

Would it be too optimistic of me to think

That my mind’s floodgates have finally been demolished?

All thoughts that were controlled deep in my head somewhere

Are finally escaping out of me, and I can’t deny the relief that it brings

As my hand trembles with the effort to keep pace with my mind

Infinite words fill the pages that were blank for far too long

For far too long a time, I kept restraint

And now, as I let it all out, I can’t help but wonder why

And as my mind races with a million and one thoughts, all exploding at once

I wish my heart never stops pounding the way it is right now

I feel more alive than I have in so long a time

It’s almost a new feeling now, one I wish never comes to an end

Uncelestial anxious oppugners', critics on their own

Wangling little dysceptic inklings';

Havesting in my throbbing head

I urch and search resolution

An escape of palputations

I skirm in sleep mode like earth-worms in the ground

The rings around their bellies; a suffocating mark of identity

Slime and ****, I mope like the straying mut

My growling topsy-turvy gut, off shut;

Claiming demands so supple

A nimbled and unfleshly sensation, I feel light to the touch

Splotchy clod's that lurch my lungs

Short breath that ache and lunge through ribs

Where they've sprung sprighly from their cage, they trick me, they're fibs

Leaches latching on to skin suckeling blood from an anemic

thin too thin, light headed again

Personification galvanizing so astute

my anxiety has eatin it's way to brood

My eyes are really bad.
So when I'm trying to fall asleep
and I see the golden orb of light through my window,
it takes me a few blinks to realize
what it is--
a street lamp.

Without my glasses,
the light widens and narrows,
grows and collapses,
patterns playing on its orange face
and edges smearing,
blurring,
sometimes shooting out like sun rays.

You are that street lamp to me.
Sometimes blurry and not quite distinct
but always there,
always constant.

A fireball,
a sun,
a star.

A light in the city night.

Weaving my way
Through a throng,
I spied emerald eyes
dark and somber
as a July
Thunderstorm,
her day dripped
sadness around
crimson heels
in tiny rivulets
of espresso and cream,
Staining her Burberry
skirt along its seams.
Lifting her hand to
her lips, *******
gingerly at manicured
fingertips.
She watched the
train pull away.

God its cold tonight
I wouldnt of bothered but its easy cash
and i'm dying for a fix

'What did that bloke just say to you kate'?

'cheeky ***'

'don't get nothing for free in life mate

go back to your borin wife , what she not know how to do ya good'


'Blokes like that make me blinkin laugh'

'Well you keep laughing little one cos there in't much to

laugh at down this street for sure'


'you got any johnny's?'

'What the hell you doing coming out unprepared, here you go

don't say i don't do nothin for ya'


The girls hanging on corners
For a ***** little fix*
Food to feed their children
Their pimps pullin their tricks
All dressed up
Thinking they lookin ****

When they are  just lookin  like a couple of tarts
If only daddy could see you now it would break his blinkin heart


You can look down your noses
You can think your better by far
But who bought you the watch darling
or the spankin new car
Who payed for the holiday to florida
Or the trip with the girls to japan
what makes you better than them girls

When you really dont even love your man
Thats why he goes to them  

Cheap thrills
Circus tricks
Grubby man


**Who are the clowns
Take them down
strip them bare
their all the same
It's just the game

I will sing for you a love song with words that ring so true
And I will forge the perfect melody to make the love shine through
There'll be thanks for all you've done for me & thanks for all you do
And I will give to you my heart in words that I will sing to you

And I'll be there, when you need a friend
And I'll be there, when you need a shoulder
I'll be there when the weight of the world
Seems less a chip and more a boulder


I'll sing to you of roses and fields of wildflowers
I'll tell you how the sound of your voice can make me smile for hours
I'll sing happy of the day you saved me from that tower
With declarations of how our love is never going to sour

And I'll be there, when you need a friend
And I'll be there, when you need a shoulder
I'll be there when the weight of the world
Seems less a chip and more a boulder


I'll be there

I am thunder hear me roar;

paramour of Wotan

now the mountains rumble

when I anger and make war.

Beware the lair, my hair is fire

and I scorch from far.

I hurt your lies

and burn your truth.

I race the wind.

I always win.

Do not mock ...they’ll

find your body

on the rocks…

torn and ******  

black holes for eyes

bore out with nails.

You never saw

the truth so what!

You dispise

the one who tried to

show the way.

Go to hell !Oh boorish ****...

I’m here to stay…Vaincre Le ****

is surely meant for me...

just set me  free…If you should say,

Oh poisson,she smells... it would be fitting

for Wotan’s *****…

You  are a real piece of work!
I am still angry!
we can't ever agree on this
you and I . . .

let's dance

leaving the ghosts of what we know
to sip our warm watery scotch

we'll lose our spite inside a song
the pulse of drums and pounding hearts
swing our hips on common ground

let's leave our piece of cake that's crumbled
reminiscent fallen ash

there's nothing left upon this table
that will not be the trash at dawn
Wrote this after watching (spying on) a couple at a wedding reception (not the bride and groom). Wonder if they're still together?
