The mirror we thought was our reflection,
                           now cracked and distorted.

For were we really looking deep enough,
or were we just hoping that what we saw
                       was a true reflection of love.

Not a fun house mirror of regret.
                           Not showing the true extent
of what we saw.

But a reflection of what we wanted.



                          Truth is never that kind...

Stepping stones on stars glimmer
We dance delicately on their shimmer

Like a light show of the heavens each twinkle
Our feet etch moments as stars endlessly sparkle

You light up the heavens dancing on a star
I see the stars light up you eyes  each from afar.

The heavens are our dancing steps incognito
I am never seen in my onyx woven tuxedo.

We make the heavens sparkle with our dance
So look to the heavens and give love a chance.

Poetic T Feb 2016
both We meet under a blackout in our midnight
Digs, on the streets we meet in confusion
But we hold on to each other now found
In the dark. luck is seen in our eyes.

They dance between each other dancing
In each others words. we look above our
Head a disco ball of natures gleam.
Can I have this dance, giggles ensue.

Dancing until rising  sunrises, we see each
Other happy what wasn't seen in darkness.
We were up dancing the night away with
Stars as our guides, weren't we so very lucky.

"Same time next week,

"Its a date and then some,

Both depart a smile on their face, tired but
Worth the experience of stars above and
When sunrise ascended a smile on both their faces.

Poetic T Oct 2014
I danced with death
It was a slow dance
I had to make
Every
Breath
Count
We tried to keep in step
For the wrong move
Took away a much needed
Breath,
Inhale,
Exhale
Keep him in your sight,
It was a tiring dance
But it was keeping me alive
We break-danced,
We tangoed many ways he tried
To break my step,
Fandango(Spanish)
Jitterbug
Ice dancing,
Was my winner, as bones don't
Do well as his **** sat on ice ,
"I laughed out loud,
He didn't take kindly to that,
But a
Deal,
Was a
Deal,

Another year to live
Many more breathes
Till next year death,
Till I dance once again with he called **death
Poetic T Mar 2014
Twinkle twinkle the stars shone bright,
But watchthe heavens as they turn there
Gaze from us, each an angel no longer do
They think we deserve their light.

One by one the lights will all go out,
Till we are all alone in the onyx night.
Darkness is are punishment we have
Lost the respect of the fragile light.

So cherish the day and the light that it
Brings, as angels shall no longer show
Us there gleam, in that time of the night
Darkness endlessly  screams.

There wings turned away till that time
That once again, when we respect the
Light given, and that day we will once
Again see the stars twinkle, twinkle in
The night, as they look down once again
Shining there gazing light.
Poetic T Feb 2019
When words weren't enough
              to show how much
                              I loved you.

I gave you a box,
           containing past loves..

And when you touched them.

                          They where still warm,
then you knew that my love was true..


As I wouldn't be swayed by the past,
                 knowing you held the
remanence in your hands.

They where still warm,
           but all that mattered

                             was that there was no
going back after this show of affection...
Poetic T Apr 2015
My essence bleeds into the surroundings,
Pure becomes neither as it suffocates
Under the influence of my soul.

All who are consumed within my blanket
Find peace, as it permeates there essence.
One by one they join my beauty.

My place, my land of perpetual silence, in
this nothingness my soul will envelope all,
living be it man or flower wilting will all fall.

My essence bleeds into the surroundings,
Obscurity has its own beauty, never judged
Upon sight, a dog howls then silence falls.

Poetic T Nov 2014
It oozed from my nails like blood
But darker, no pain, it fell upon the floor
It was warm around my toes
"It was like a puddle walked after a storm"
But then then
Lacerations,
Irritation,
Convulsions
As what once bleed from my nails
Now pierced my flesh,
My body trembled,
As I hit the floor,
"Shaking uncontrollably"
It crept under my skin
Burning upon every nerve, but then
Pierced,
Cracked,
Perforated  
From under the skin,
I touched the first,
"I screamed in plentiful agony"
As if a raw Nerve had been openly touched,
It was like poison ivy, my skin
Discoloured veins of
Red,
Blue,
Black
Slowly crept over the open wounds,
It had moved to my trunk,
"***** of black spewed forth"
As it entwined,
Like clawed fingers
Lacerating my internal organs,
I moved back,
"Crawled upon the floor"
The now solid nerves
Scrapped, scratching the wooden boards,
It was a  futile act, as if I could escape
That which was under my skin,
My arms were perforated
Upon my throat, veins crept
As it knew that if
Pierced,
Bleed,
Breath
No more would be had,
But each was as if embers of flame
Inhaled, exhaled with each painful breath,
It crawled underneath flesh, agony
Not letting me go,
I was conscious
"Even though I preyed to pass out"
It clawed
Slowly,
Intentionally,
At each eye, like a thousand paper cuts
My eyes cried tears of black,
As I was shown the darkness within
That which had taken form externally, I was
Corrupted,
Polluted,
Distorted
Darkness that had crept beneath my skin,
And with that I exhaled,
"Black feathers spewed forth"
Cutting at my throat
As I ejected the darkness
These black feathers not hitting the floor
Instead just floating around,
"As I expelled once more"
Till one feather of white exited
With each touch
Black became white,
Ever brighter the room became,
Like a blanket covering I slept
"I awoke"
"Under white sheets"
"Was this but a dream, a  nightmare"
"I coughed and exhaled"
"A tiny black feather exited"
Then I knew that darkness is always inside,
But it can grow upon the soul,
Cutting into the white,
Like a vine corrupting upon the flesh
Good,
Light,
&
Bad
Darkness,
Are things of life
But we must never let the
Darkness blot out the light and take control of our life.
Poetic T Apr 2014
In the dark we are all strangers
with just a voice, never seeing,
judgment of others only by the
tone of a voice.

The darkness covers are faults,
not of our own. but what others
would think, it is a cloak that
hides us in a blanket of secrets.

Would we touch around, hands
to one self, or feel others features,
woman or man, does the voice match
what you thought the features would
be like.

Darkness is a blanket that hides
misconceptions of others, hiding
religion, skin tone, looks are nothing
in darkness as this all melts away, for
in darkness we are one and the same...
Poetic T Jan 2015
I am a shadow in a hall of evanescent light,
running in endless momentum I'm the imperfect
in a situation of collapsing purity.

My essence is smeared upon moments
of an endless journey, I can only run
so long before, the halls purify my essence,
and where I walked among the blistering light.

I would fade in to a shadow of what was running
unto oblivion. Light and darkness are offending forces,
One will envelope the other, for an eternal battle.

But I was only a shadow that pondered the reactions
of an opposite, and I pay the curiosity token.
Where once I ran within halls of ignited white.

I am but grey now and soon it will be like  I never
ran in these halls. Only smeared prints slowly fading
upon white.

The Darkness
Wishes us
Be the rowers
On the Sea of
Death
Destruction
Hate
Whipped to fasten the pace
Row
Row
Row
This sea of the deceased
Skulls,
Splinter
Spines ,
Severed
With each oar that hits
Upon this ocean of blood
Darkness steers
This boat of the
Dead
Condemned,
For what was life,
They search shores
To host the darkness
For it to spread
Death
Destruction
Hate
It isn't where,
Its when,
Will this disease,
Land upon our shores
Because light is becoming dimmer,
And Darkness is rowing
Harder to our shores

Only within darkness
Can our truth shine
Behold we are the candle
Poetic T Aug 2014
Darkness it  pollutes
The pool of the soul,
What once seen through
Now but dark pools
Only evil sees now,
The one you knew
Now consumed in darkness
No voice,
A puppet on strings,
Like a passenger in a car
No control of the wheel,
Death would be better.
Than the things now seen,
Through blacked out windows
Evil now breathes, and has control.
Poetic T Feb 2014
I black out it begins, the
other inside wants its
time to have fun, to do
things I wouldn't want
to know of, I am his puppet
trapped within.

My cage Is my mind trapped
with in, I do not know where
my body goes when he is within.

Ever do I worry when the darkness
will awaken and where I will be,
when the fog dissipates from my
mind what has it done to others
or me.

My darkness I see as I look at a
reflections of me, I see in his prison
behind the eyes he smiles awaiting
to start my torment, we are the
same coin but different are we,
the dark side, the light side, one
shell we share between you and me.

We will always be one of two, hating
the other side as only one can be in
control and I will fight him to the edge
and I will hopefully win.
we all have a dark side
Poetic T Nov 2019
There are wolves at the door,
        but we will never let
them get there claws into you.

We are looking for the princes
  that'll treat you right..

And  we know you'll defend them,
          the princes when the time comes.

Your strong my daughter,
            raised that your stronger

than anything that'll get in your way.

            Your the meaning to our life.

But your free, and your stronger than
           any before you.

Poetic T Apr 2018
Moist in there giving,
            but woeful are the
dewdrops that evaporate
                      clinging to verses.


Momentary metaphors dispersing
          before others acknowledgment
of there potential.
                    
But still clinging to dawns  perception.
                Reading  between every analogy,
That all that dehydrates can sew new seeds.

"Hello Mr F of fine dancing,
Dam it wrong number, I waited for a few
More days and then the first one booked.

"Hello is the F in fine dancing,
"Yes it is how may I be of service madam,

"I have some friends coming around for an
Afternoon of book club but need to spice it up,


"Well I'm the man for the job madam,
"I'll be there around 7pm,

First job I got told their was extras included
My friend was in the job but fell from a table.
Health and Safety I told him now he is limp,
"Cant get it up a table,
"Cant get it a chair,
"Cant get it up anywhere,
If your limp there isn't no job for you anywhere.
He works at a beef burger joint that's the only
Meat he's flipping anywhere.

I knock the door and then it shut again,
It once again goes to shut once more,
A foot widens the gap a show stopper in the door.

"Madam you paid for my services,

"EXCUSE ME,

She carried on as I walked in my 80's ghetto
Blaster I released on the fine oak table.
Right ladies here we go who's the
Luckily lady who gets me first.

They all point to each other screaming excitedly,
Its nice to be so wanted. I press play,
"You cant beat the sound of tape,
The sound echoes around their pad,

"Do you want the snake,
"Climbing upon your silken legs,
"Baby its what you waited for,

Myself, my only copy. I hear a sigh.
Was that of relief or because they liked the song?
Its ok I have a CD as I throw it in to their player
Music pumps out and then I begin

Act I: Touch You Baby

I am who you have wanted all your life,
He touches each face smooth skin
Touches delicate features, caressing
Upon there wanting, each shudder and
Move in teasing denial.

Act II: Clothes Release

Many layers make the man as each pealed
Each thrown in to the crowd, jaws are
Wide open watching Velcro peal off.
One sitting on a chair I sit on her lap
Gyrate as she exhales in excitement
Moaning as I move, I jump up and
She inhales me in.  

Act III: Release The Beast

As clothes shed like leaves from a tree
So does but one leaf still hang modesty covered
But with cloth and sting.
The manly hair mature and grown shaped
As I am I lion ready To pounce.

"Excuse me what is with the stem on the leaf,

Act III: Continued

The Stem twitches, the leaf opens grown,
Released is the beauty for all on show,
"***,
"Ladies Shhh,
As the leaf opens the stem now shown
To the world on show now lets see who
Can hold the stem and the music goes.

"***, "***, is heard from all
Corners of the room, what was thought
As a wasted effort now most woman's dreams.
He dances around the room over excited a
Eye blackened by the mushroom.

An hour passes and fun has been had,
The leaf had many greens neatly tucked in.
He gives each of them a card.

Lets them hold it once last time.
And numbers are written down,
But never kept as that's not professional
Most are married for one. What happens
Here stays here as no cameras aloud.

See some of you again I hope, I hear
words as I shut the door closed.

"He may be big, but wow that vine I
Could swing on anytime he wants,


"That was a surprise I could wear his
Chest hair he could keep me warm at night,


The day in the life of a fat stripper is never
An easy one. But by the way ladies if you
Wish some fine dancing and a surprise

Poetic T Mar 2017
Fragrant eventides weave upon the crest of
what befalls the sight, as a kaleidoscope
of emotions weave tearing upon the horizon.

Crests illuminating the throws of daylights
bereavement but in the fall of all luminosity
bleeds brightest at its eventual ending.

Woven emotions coalesce into momentary collages
of suspended imagery, suffocating the senses of this
beauty now decomposing to darkness.....
Poetic T Jul 2014
When the sun set, my love
            extinguished in those lonely waters below,
But when the sun rose
            My love ignited once again invigorated,
My feelings some times clouded
            Tears would fall when I was Alone,
When darkness fell the moon showed me
            That even in darkness love can shine.
Poetic T Mar 2014
-Dedicated to our mother-
  
  
The hours past the days moved on,
But never think we don't remember
You are gone.
  
You were with us through the good times
as well as the tough, never  did you give up.
When we were good you gave us praise,
when we were we bad, never did you give up  on us.
Grounded most times now well under stood.  
    
A single mum bringing up boys
The very best that you could.
You taught us manners, even Ironing,
and how to cook, you taught us good.

You made us who we are today, even though
You left us we still think of you every day, your
Laugh a cackle and a snort, you could talk the
Ears of a donkey without a breath and then talk
Some more.
  
Your are mother we will never forget, even though
You have left us, in our hearts you will always live
On, we will miss you with each moment that passes
Are mother now moved on to a better place.

dead batteries linger
buried beneath the silver forks

life is still a lost spark
686 haiku, what I found in my draw...
Poetic T Sep 2014
They arose from the grave
Some not in tune
Giving a fist,
Then a finger,
And went back to eternal slumber.
Others were after it
They needed to feel it,
Beat,
Rhythm,
Life,
They craved it from the grave
Arise,
Arise,
Search, those who crave the beat
To bring you life,
They roamed
A few slower, as they'd  lost there feet,
But they would crawl on
Stomach,
Hands,
Knees,
To feel the beat of life within,
They glared in the air
It was unmistakable,
The beat of life.
As they entered
Screams,
Horror,
Curiosity,
As the dead meant no harm,
They stood in formation
This isn't no thriller,
This is the life they heard from afar.
Beats of music,
They danced in unison
The crowd went wild
Music,
Beat,
Rhythm,
Life,
They were dancing
The night away,
A few screams did follow,
As moves not meant for the dead
Limbs flew far in to the crowd
Politely
Handed,
Footed,
Fingered
Back once again,
But time was not on there side
Time was beating past,
So a grunt,
A lipless smile,
And they made there way back
They had for one night felt the
Beat
Rhythm,
Life,
Of the party
Its funny how a full moon
Can awaken feeling even in the dead..
Poetic T Feb 2019
They said my life was
                     just dead-ends..

So I just got out my car..


Walked over the fields,
                 and walked along
another path of life..

Just because some one says  your life  
                                        are dead ends..
That doesn't always mean you should
                                                              listen,

because after every dead end
                   is another journey,
                   just in a different direction.

Flesh* was the *delicacy
Upon dead lips it was warm,
Blood did taste like a wine of
Seventy
Four
Years
The younger years
Were drank to fast,
To tender from the bone,
They never lasted long,
Till the
Hunger,
Fever,
Starvation
Of the dead took hold,
Yearning for the warmth,
"bodies numb"
To digest, blood still pumping warm
There was less living to feast
Only the cold hunger,
Like packs we hunted,
Never in need of rest
Rotting on jagged bones
Minds,
Bodies,
Soulless
Hunger that needed, wanting
To be fulfilled
We feel
We feel the hunger
We feel the hunger of the flesh,
We are dead in the heart but warmth
Is our comfort,
Warmth of fresh flesh, blood
Coursing down our throats
I consumed a vintage
Forty
Five
Old
She taste bitter, but we drank our full
Till nothing left,
We hunger for warmth, we are the **dead.
Was really hungery when this came to ink..

Dead thoughts feed this Lilly, ever drinking
As she picked them free to wear upon herself.

She smelt the aroma of a dead mans thoughts,
Intoxicating was death to her every self.

Gazing upon this jar of silent looks eyes forever
Closed, to open nevermore life is restrained.

This wasn't the only flower she was to grow,
All would have the scent of deathly thoughts.

Each will drink upon a suspended moment of
Muteness, only the flowers would speak with scent.

Come to this place of the silent reflection, entice
Oneself with the scent of a dead ones thoughts.
Poetic T Jan 2018
I wrote every syllable in flawless meanings,
             my fingers playing my emotions.
A fine tuned tapestry of silence,
telling you every thing you needed to hear..
            Then you caressed my face.
Hand gestures solidifying the meaning of our every word.
Poetic T May 2016
Did you know that the little ones have thoughts of you still,
and that the littlest one even though she missed you
by only a few weeks.......... her smile you'd of loved.
She does ask about you, asking is she bringing sweets...
I still see you smiling on photos, eternal words in your features
never to fade, they are there still as if you weren't gone.


But Mother, Mum I do miss your laughter original
and unique. You put us all in that well brought up
place. You may have been gone for some time, but
your thoughts and memories are always around
even though I don't hear your voice anymore.
I hear you everyday and know that your love is
still within us all and your memory will always live on.....
4 years and I can still hear her rather unique laugh haha...

"The feeble gods had faded,
"Impaled upon jagged mountains,
There *blood
was the waters of creation
Life,
Beginning,
Death
Had brought *new life,

Their bones crumbled
flakes fell, cold and winters were born.
Each flake, rawness felt as if
Tears melting upon touch.
Appendages fell when life left
Eyes staring upon the stars of eternity
As theirs were expelled,
Carving upon the many landscapes
Canyons,
Ravines,
Valleys
Were born from faded memories,
As fingerprints pooled too lakes,
The milk of the dead filled
As life flourished in crystal blue.
"The old ones before man and beast,
"May have pasted,
But in their death
Rebirthed was life that flourishes
They brought the seasons with bone,
They created
Lakes,
Ravines,
Life
With their falling upon jagged mountain tops
They had past, but in their passing everything else *began.
Dead from ages before life
Poetic T Jun 2018
Plucking nails like petrified petals,
each one tipped in faded gloss.
And they fall silently,
                 this life is now morbidity.

Wood has splintered within this carcass
of holding, she plucks hair and manifests
a brush,dipping it in the empty socket
                                                        of reflection.

Visual metaphors adorn the now
                                                       sullen silk interior.
Now hanging like drapes in a
         still wind of putrefaction.

Death is a void less experience,
         where one must entertain oneself,
for eternity is a long time to captivate myself
               in a six by two tomb of introspection.

We are the yearning
                   of another,
when we fall silent

We are a circle,
                that has been spun
for a millennia when we fall.
Poetic T Jun 2018
We are martyrs of deaths breath,  
       concussive retribution for living
in the light of decay.
Matter is a virus of consumption,
           exhausting the filaments
of extended fulfilment that will never
                                             be quenched.

But death is the saviour of existence,
      collecting on the overture of a
living rhythm, what sang to loudly
         now nullified beyond continuality.


The martyr did linger in disparity
       for life was a creation, but existence
is but greed. So let all ponder the
          expenditure of self and repercussions
of what existence brings to all.
             Death isn't an enemy,
its the saviour of existence.
Coalescing the need for continuity.
Poetic T Mar 2014
I had a relationship with death,
She had a grip like no other on on my
Heart
Beating,
She said I was the only one
But I knew there were others,
That I was not her only one.
She had a grip of love on others hearts,
holding others in her arms.
She was by my bed side,
Whispering,
Muttering,
Saying
What was and what could have been.
Her breath so cold on my soul,
does she not realise the pain in my heart.
I had an affair with death she was
By my side.
Then she said we would be together forever,
She kissed me and I left this place.
Never to see my love again.

Poetic T Feb 2019
Breath was exhumed from the corpses
lingering impressions.
   But all were merged beyond
                           the futile emotions of the flesh.

For where reflections were void,
             only true deliberations stigmatized.
                                    Everything of before,
               that  were psychedelic illusions.

Reminiscing of stained windows,
                recently cleansed of the memories of
                                                                ­yesterday.
Only now were remnant fallen dreams buried
                                           beneath falling stars..



                           That crawled like maggots
                                                 in the heavens
burrowing deeper the more they fell...
                And still though falling, there breath still
                                          gasped as death only exhales.

souls of mortal man and there hearts
were stopped twelve steps of death.

He lifted his cloak so to see where
to jump, one jump, two jump third
jump and three drop dead like fallen
trees they fall in the breeze.

He could play this all day the pebble each
one a heart, he lifts it up jolting in his
bony fingers and then looks as it beat
within his palm then crumbles it to dust.

Then anguish and pain the daughter of
death that help him in his role in the world
"father let us once again play our game,
He smiles and skips on broken spines.

Mother please, As decay walks over asking
what is this scream not of mortal breath?
Its daddy he is ruining our game,
off the children's play thing I say.

Death wallows as his fun is ended, and
once again death now cant end their  
suffering as his children once again
Linger there misery on human kind.

"My husband I no you meant well,
But children must learn from mistakes.
Now come with me and let us rest in
the earth and linger in corruptions embrace.

I plucked your heart
               like a cherry.

            the pip
                        cracked.

Life is just a grain falling
          to an inevitable conclusion.

That is, every tide comes in and
                                       drowns it.

Every clock stops,
         it just depends which chime.

Yours was twenty seconds ago..

This grandfather is never being wound again.
