Psilocybin silly when the
cops arrive.
Sitting on the couch naked,
laughter, aching jaws.
They ask where my wallet is?
I ask, where are my pants?
Even they laugh.
I can't say mushrooms are
all bad.
They are the catalysts that
brought me back to the
hospital to deal with the
real killer...
*****.
True Story.
I recently did an open mic via zoom at the writer's workshop in Iowa City.  Here's a link.

From the ashes
I touched the Moon
One night in June
And gave it to a bug.
He carried it home
All alone
And put it on his rug.

Crow
within the solitude of the dreadful span
of the blackened and bowed sky
the deep withered grass bends in the moonless dark
quieting the cold and murmuring earth

hushing her into fitful sleep

the air is hard
and the wind lacerates the night
razor incisions left behind
in the icy flesh of obsidian hours

open wounds howl like wolves
on the trail of prey in flight

I hunger for you
under the restless stars

Yeah, I'm flirty
You know I'm *****
***** minded; that is
Get every question right on the quiz
Is what I couldn't do
'Cause I was too busy thinking about you
Normally when flirting, I'm smooth
But this time, I was slipping up
You made me fall
I fell for you
Is what I thought I couldn't do
You missed my call
Wouldn't answer at all
You made me fall
You broke my heart
I thought I was flirty
Yet, you tore that thought apart
That was back then
Now I got people begging for me
As if I was the honey to their bee
Now I'm back to being flirty
Hopefully I won't be done *****
Once again, like you did to me
Now I'm the key you need
The key you need to unlock your heart
You lost it when you tore me apart
You really just tore yourself apart
Now you're stuck lonely smoking a cart
I now have people all over me
Sticking to me like I'm the honey to their bee
A poem my friend asked me to publish onto here!

Little Bear
we watched in awe
as the stars were scattered
upon the dark blanket of heaven

as the bitter cold
enticed our breath
leaving it hanging
like clouds of unspoken joy

our cold hands held tight
as we brought home
our warm hearts  
to our sanctuary
our hygge
our home

mars
the bringer of war
shone red below the moon
and i now know
where i am

i am in the north
shining bright
hoping for peace

knowing war
is coming
