AM
we are the cracks that
riddle sidewalks
from which new life is able to grow
we are violent celestial explosions
that add one more speck of light
to the the dark expanse of space
we are tsunamis and hurricanes
tornadoes and floods
that sweep away the lives we have built
and bring the goodness lying within
mankind to our doorsteps

for without darkness
what is light
and without pain
what is poetry
broken dreams for broken promises
broken within tainted nightmare
broken heart for broken bones
tainted nightmare of her face
a broken soul for a broken body
I see her but only in nightmares
she speaks to me but i cannot hear her
but I don’t need to
for I already know what she say
holding her almost dead body
‘I hate you’
a tainted memory in a tainted nightmare
All because of you
I haven’t slept in so long
when i do
I see you again
all because of you
I haven’t slept in so long
when i do
I hold you again crying
all because of you
I haven’t slept in so long
when I do
you haunt me again
with these words of yours
All because of you
I believe in demons
not the kind with wings
no, not the kind with horns
the kind that steals you from me
All because of me
you hate me
ashes to ashes
dust to dust

for every heart
born into darkness
darkness shall it return

but look for the light
in between the darkness
for that is life and happiness

but be mindful of the darkness
***
The heart flutters
The mind races
The muscle tightens
The body burns with desire
Nature takes control
Hair is pulled
Backs are clawed
Lips are pressed against
Acts of Lovers
Passions of Love
Eyes narrow
Mind rushes
Mouth spits hateful words

Head drops
Eyes waters
Feet quicken
Tears fly

Hand raise
Words whispered
Finger squeezes
Bullet flies
Blood splatters
Eyes darken
Body slouches and falls
Blood pools around head
Everything blackens
Chains of gold
Forever bonded
to my soul
Wires bared with gold
Forever coiled
around my heart
Your stare of beauty
Forever stole
my breath from me
begging you on my knees
I'll say never
please just stay
Forever
I swallow my pride
My mouth spits these words

Some die
Others are hurt
Reminessing in memories
Restless in sleep
Your my reason
The walls screamed poetry disease & ***
an inner whine like a mad machine -
dropped in a
cave of roaches
or rodents

The Computer
faces of the men

The wall collage
reading matter

The Traders (dealers)
~~~

I am a guide to the labyrinth
Come & see me
in the green hotel
Rm. 32
I will be there after 9:30 p.m.

I will show you the girl of the ghetto
I will show you the burning well
I will show you strange people
haunted, beast-like, on the
verge of evolution

-Fear The Lords who are
secret among us
~~~

Leaving the phone-booth, I was
Struck by a whiff of
the weird.
Insane old country woman
come to nag the haunts
of town
Hairy legs w/open sores.

From what swamp or under-rock
did you crawl to remind
us what we choose
to leave

my heart hurts so much right now and i just can't really

it hurts me so bad
it hurts me so bad
i don't know why
but it hurts me so bad

i guess
i feel like
i just want to keep her at arms length
and talk to her about happy things
and only happy things

when u see someone
it changes things
and how u think

i feel like
i just took a step back
and a step forward
but i can't decide
which one it is

to go away
push further
or to stay
and try harder

i'm so mixed up in my heart right now
i want her back so bad
but i don't know if she's still there
my heart hurts so bad right now
i want her back
but i think she's gone

i want her back but i think she left
i saw her looking cute in that pretty dress
i forgot how much her smile meant to me
i forgot how much i miss her laugh
i can't write anything else but pain
my heart is stained
and it feels like forever

i sat and babysat my nephew today
i made him laugh, and i thought about her
with me in the room
she was there with me tonight
i made her laugh too

as i sit in this seat
i keep slumping over
i keep slumping over

i want her to come back
and be with me
but i think it's over
although that feels like never
