Cup your palms around that candle dear lazy Spells to cast to the wombs keep our ghosts outside peering into tent ***** yellowing irises and stamens strangely swaying but nonsense Butte no out there they stalk you dear lazy

Dear Lazy
Id love a big fat **** Or a wrinkled up old bag An ugly looking hag Who wants a ******* **** If I had a big fat ***** with a big fat bucket I'd lay between her fleshy thighs, and definitely **** it My thrusting **** inside her **** is where I'd like to tuck it Spunking up would be sublime, when I lick and **** it When your about to **** the fat, it takes a certain knack Stuffed up fishy **** ***** or **** ******* round the back A nice piece of chunky **** with a big long sweaty crack Fatty *** holes make you hard ,my **** would not be slack I would ride a big large Gal, just like a waterbed Bathroom ******* would be fun, as well as in the shed Spunking up between her legs, cream cheese would then be spread When both holes are full of *** she can **** my **** instead And after I have finished, with all of those fat ******* Something different I would want, maybe some old wrinkled witches All wearing apple gatherers, and big large ******* britches Older ***** long overdue, scratching long lost itches A lot of fun I could have, in an old folks place Disrobed willing grannies ***** stuffed right in my face At least eight bits of gristle ****** a display of my disgrace With each granny ****** in turn, if they can stand the pace As I lift their skirts up their knickers I would sniff I'm hoping that old fannies good, and they don't smell or whiff The smell of old used granny **** is probably just a myth But I won't let it bother me, as long as I get stiff I wouldn't even care, if they wore crap NHS glasses As long as I could **** and *** inside there wrinkled arses I would **** them old ****** , all from different classes Some of them in wheelchairs and some with heart bypasses. It's irrelevant how fat you are, I really do not mind As long as you are willing, and your pussy's wet and kind And if you like it up the **** then I'm that way inclined ******* ***** is quite fine, so is ******** from behind So come on girls fat or old, all slags are a possibility Your sexuality can flood out, there's no need for negativity I'm willing to **** who comes along, to the best of my ability Just make sure that I stay stiff, and maintain my agility

Fat Slags And Old Bags *** Again - 2018

He slowly assembles his rifle on the barren rooftop as the      wind blows through his light blond hair. His long overcoat ***** and wraps around his thin long     legs. He places his elbows upon the short wall in front of him,      firmly kneeling on both knees. Glancing into the rifle's sight, he focuses sharply through      its cross hairs; he sees hundreds passing through the sight,      men, women, children, and as he sees it, a maze      of mass hysteria. He thinks of his current desperate situation and with each      passing thought, his heart pumps more hateful      adrenaline through his expanding veins. What am I?....He wonders. "I am the orphan child too ugly to adopt! I am the spit in the street you step in and curse! I am the cockroach so many crush beneath their feet! I wish to love and beloved, for I am ever so lonely,      so empty. I wish to give my whole self to someone to make them      eternally happy! To sacrifice all I possess, including my life, for the one      I love, but I am thoughtlessly branded a stalker! I am the void in all broken hearts. As a child, I only wished to be loved and appreciated, but I was raised the invisible child. There's a painful sore in my throbbing brain, the lethal      virus of society'd disdain. I'm insane!....I'm insane!...Give me peace, God if you exist      Give me peace! He glances once again through the sight's cross hairs, catching sight of a young boy standing alone, mouth wide open     with tears rolling down his cheeks. He pauses.....envisioning himself, his blue eyes cloud      with tears. He pulls back back his loaded rifle placing it against the      short wall, realizing at the moment this wasn't the way to end his      unbearable pain. Reaching into his deep overcoat's pocket, his long fingers      catch grasp of the cool surface of a 9 mm. Pulling it slowly from his pocket, he raises it to his temple, slipping his finger upon its tight trigger he whispers once      again, "God....if you exist, Give me peace."

third month year of the fire monkey
The Pigeon Gent, He woos and coos around the river bent. Pursues his muse with artful dance and skillful prance, With inflated neck and ruffled plumage, until his energy or luck is spent. He then resides by ebbing tides to ponder on his next advance. "Now Now", "Whats This" the gent exclaims, A shadow looming from the skies. With ***** and claps he glides and lands with  full surprise, He spies the intruder, "A fellow Brooder". Pigeon gent cant believe his eyes. Pigeon Gent cannot believe the sauce, The scurge seems intent on taking his prize by force. At once he knows he must respond, And force this illbread vagabond to abscond. At once chest puffed and muscles flexed, With wild eyes he jabs and pecks. To teach this ruffian respect, So on his actions he may later reflect. He stands his ground both large and proud, To make example of this foul winged burglar from the clouds. "You insult me sir" he shouts aloud, To make his intentions clear for all the crowd. For several rounds they fight and scuffle. With intruder retreating, feathers ruffled. Then bested suiter fairly parted, The quarrel ends as fast as started. The vanquished victor displays and grooms, As peace and honour now resumes. Soon the ripples upset the green, An armada of ducks come on the scene. Alerted by the heightend coos, They race to see what act insues. The mighty mallards, Kings of the river, None contest their right of way. Their ways of conduct such generous givers. Majestic river royalty, the law is always what they say. On bank or shallow pebbled river they have always been, They love to feed and breed amongst the river scene. There royal cape made up of browny reds and shimmering greens, reflects and intejects on mirrored water skies and evergreens. To their mates for life and lady lovers, The mallard gent is like no others. Such loyalties are seldom seen, In modern times and different dreams. Fine and lean with striking features, Best examples of river teachers. But at any moment no matter how abrubt, A river duel may easily erupt. Battle can ensue and rage, As both apponents approach and engage. For they mate for life as duck and wife, A rarity in any age or life.

Tempestuous longings from behind the screen of life’s moving picture You stare back at me, in a glimmering, shimmering afterthought Laid low by foregoing passion In a moment’s torrid glimpse from our hollow reflections Fragrant evenings during seasons of filming Solemnly captured and revised then experienced The all encompassing struggle with context and setting Abides a steely night, in the rustle of autumn branches Requiem for an unremitting beloved! Sung in the valley between piercing peaks of sorrow She floats through the scene as distinct aura and vague essence An embrace from the trail of vapors and misspent gestures All emanating from a glass of cider beneath nostrils Gracefully, you embank on the wind of time’s shadow And nudge my cheek with impetus and vigor Lashing out at my skin in ambivalent revelry As if my follicles were vacuous caverns Catching the callous moments which flutter the ***** of hillside tents The unearthly gusts of banality extinguish the projector’s gleam While nature embodies your beauty furthermore Toward the end of the pathway And the credits of the film And the allegro of the score And the solitude of eternity And the rustling of the branches

I I stole my brother’s car and drove to Phoenix in the dark. The blue-green glow of dashboard gauges, the biting scent of roadkill and desert marigolds. Tap. Tap. Tap. Insects slapping the windshield, incipient rain. Keep driving. Drive until the sun blooms. II Some days were more dire than others. CCTV footage confirms I pawned a shotgun, a Gibson guitar, and my wife’s engagement ring at the pawnshop next to Fatty’s Tattoo parlor on MLK Boulevard. The typographically accurate Declaration of Independence inscribed on my back also confirms this. III I ran the tilt-a-whirl at the Ashtabula county fair, fattening up on fried Oreos and elephant ears, twisting behind tent ***** with a one-armed contortionist with strawberry-blonde hair. IV I derailed in a dive bar. V I disappeared in a city lit by lavender streetlights, where buildings blotted out the stars and the traffic signals kept perfect time. I picked through trash bins. I paid for love with drugstore wine. VI I closed my eyes on a mountain road. The sheriff extracted me from a ****** snowbank. VII I holed up for weeks in an oceanfront motel, dazed by the roar of the breakers. Each morning I drew back the curtains and lost myself in the crisscrossing patterns of whitecaps, the synchronous flight of sanderlings above the dunes. I dreamed of dead horseshoe ***** rolling in with the tide. VIII The moon over my shoulder tightened into focus like a spotlight. One night the barking dogs undid me. I caved in to the candor of a naked mattress. I grew my beard, an insomniac in a jail cell, clinging to bars the color of a morning dove. IX I coveted the house keys of strangers. X I opened and closed many doors. I sang into the mouths of storm drains. I stepped out of many rooms only to find myself in the room I just left. Despite all my leaving, I remained.

I am sooooo tired, exhausted.. My mind needs to be shut down, my head hurts. Words want to be said but my prides me wounded, my selfworth is burning low there is a lump in my throat. I'm haunted by to evanescent nature of my past joy. Daunted but how far my seems to be. Yesterday, last week, last month, last year and today have me in the center, wearing the same things, feeling the same, worried I'm at my end, but a while older my life seems to be rejecting me; or maybe I it.. I want to be free to exist but everything seems to come with a cost. There are critics everywhere even my thoughts have thoughts objecting to them before i receive them and make certain i don't need them.. So I'm running around in circles not knowing why i never got around to things my mind first thought whiles ago, my will has become meek my worth shrunk to camouflage with dust specks I'm exhausted from playing this part, misguided by the values of what's recently been made 'right' distracted completely from the life i want to live. And i don't have a clue which switch ***** it back to normal, or which life i will leave for those which have grown accustomed to this timid version of me... After all people aren't always happy when they say. "...you have changed..."

"Has it not never occurred to you," he said, eyes rolling like dice, "The grab to bake cannot be left undone? The neck to slip will save the top of leg? When they lift we ****** the rotten ***** Six trots can win the flat softball netting? Lost rocks find tabs undone by the grandpas? It's like unbecomingphilomancy!" You know what I mean?

Luck of the Ladybug
for Ruth Fainlight I know the bottom, she says. I know it with my great tap root; It is what you fear. I do not fear it: I have been there. Is it the sea you hear in me, Its dissatisfactions? Or the voice of nothing, that was you madness? Love is a shadow. How you lie and cry after it. Listen: these are its hooves: it has gone off, like a horse. All night I shall gallup thus, impetuously, Till your head is a stone, your pillow a little turf, Echoing, echoing. Or shall I bring you the sound of poisons? This is rain now, the big hush. And this is the fruit of it: tin white, like arsenic. I have suffered the atrocity of sunsets. Scorched to the root My red filaments burn and stand,a hand of wires. Now I break up in pieces that fly about like clubs. A wind of such violence Will tolerate no bystanding: I must shriek. The moon, also, is merciless: she would drag me Cruelly, being barren. Her radiance scathes me. Or perhaps I have caught her. I let her go. I let her go Diminished and flat, as after radical surgery. How your bad dreams possess and endow me. I am inhabited by a cry. Nightly it ***** out Looking, with its hooks, for something to love. I am terrified by this dark thing That sleeps in me; All day I feel its soft, feathery turnings, its malignity. Clouds pass and disperse. Are those the faces of love, those pale irretrievables? Is it for such I agitate my heart? I am incapable of more knowledge. What is this, this face So murderous in its strangle of branches? ---- Its snaky acids kiss. It petrifies the will. These are the isolate, slow faults That **** that **** that ****

Polyamorous triangles float past galaxies, across time (da da da) like some untangled thread, each strand pulled infinitely thin. I think someone said: we are as much as we try to be, maybe; but nothing more. Triangles trying [to be] squares, but missing the point – lost associations, lost between skull curves and carbon ***** of tongue spit (dee dee dee) flipping bubbles through air; singing metal pot-lid banter and clapping pavement with rubber footprints; existing in evanescence to the eye, quicker, quicker, quicker, you see (la la la) like time here on a ball with defined surface area always moving with each sneeze and wind breeze. Rock rocking like nothing at all while earthly bodies with destructive ease never pause to ponder the grandeur of bland neoteric needs; god-fearing carbon pumping earth, exploding earth and ******* in the hot air. Shaped to fear some carbonic idea; too geometric to care (da dee la).

Sliding fingers over alabaster shafts, crevices and nooks catching at delving digits as they seek between the ****** ***** of remov-ed meat. For before the bones the meat. And before the meat the scalpel, Running liquid through the tendrils with its clever carv-ed lines in the succulent, decadent dead. The gore on the board. Seen in rivulets of scarlet, A tracery of cuts, Multi-layered and exquisite. I taste the smell of this corpulent finery. Hands reaching into the layers, slick with blood pulling at the fat. Sleek and deadly I ply them, my tools. For I am the butcher And you will eat my meat. Feast upon my carnage, And leave me with the bones. And leave me with the bones.

A man he wrote the book A book for all and none About a life spent leaning Leaning towards the sun In search of all a greatness  His life a distant run A battle for a giant He reaches for the sun On a field of giants Merely flesh and blood He disregards the mismatch And stretches for the sun Life the fiercest battle A war that’s never won Commits his life to reaching Reaching for the sun He asks the aged pastor     Disillusioned as the nun Confides in self and marches on Onward towards the sun Saw life and fortune a lady Took a chance with love Traded breast and beauty Traded it for the sun His only life a sacrifice A gamble for a goal With faith and strength he pushes on He strains his empty soul Tried to be a good man Emulates Christ the son Grounded broken wings he ***** Tragically towards the sun To advance the course of history Alexander, Caesar, the *** A martyr for the western world He reaches for the sun To hold the mighty leviathan With gear to catch a cod Born with a head of a ******* He aspires to be a god And oh his quest does beckon Failure certain done What else can he do He reaches for the sun To god he clings his anchor Sworn service to God and Son Hopelessly he leans Leaning towards the son

Leaning Towards the Sun
Into the peachy clouds A strawberry sunset spreads some light We track across the chili fields And climb aboard the gravy night A chocolate pond reflects a moon Tall hedges show the way A startled pheasant chucks alarm A pigeon ***** and flies away An unseen owl shrieks hello Foxes cough their husky bark The dapper badger stirs below The night shift claims the dark The ploughman works on through the night Engine roaring, blazing lights In his power-walking leviathan Guided by the satellites On we go, the village near We'll find a welcome there An inglenook, a glowing hearth A pint of hoppy beer.

Unwritten Soul
Trapped in a ***** world a world of old gold. Wrinkled creases needing ironing on faces of the old. Arms caked in drawings of roses and steel Scorched fields ploughed to death in lines on rusty old farms. Clenched and clasped Tight collars at the throat Fat bellies in laps Buckles on horses Belts on chaps Held tight in a vice Braces on women with feet in straps Buckles and braces laces and *****

Buckles and Braces
I walk a lonely alley off a quiet dead end street at the gushing blow of where the wind and I meet I clench my coat across my chest, turn my collar for warmth my hat is flung off my head by the coming storms my tie has flown and ***** like the tail of a kite stripped right off my back, my coat puts up a fight I tug back my shirt, but it’s bye byes across the sky Like a black bird bleating I wish myself to fly I extend my arms, running, like a plane off the ground The winds undress me, more clothes dropping down Soaring over cities, buildings and their blue seas releasing the fabrics of my life now escaping me I’m naked, but warmed by the layers of rays from the sun nothing now matters than this feeling of having won against the wind, an open sky, beyond the cast shadows below I freely fly, with nothing on, but the air and where the wind may blow

Where the wind may blow
She broke her grip on the strap of my heart Lipstick stained, pale faced caress Sultry gone long in a high-heeled daze Slaps of fright in a lost fight The strap of my heart ***** loosely in time To pulses of desire as they beat dimmer Pushed down swagger of hot sighs Lost cries to last lies Broken grips on heart straps She broke me down in fueled up lies Broke me down in that last caress cc2011

Straps
Mammy never owned a dryer, She would always use the fire To dry clean clothes for her eight kids, Who played in pants as if on stilts, Wore Goodwill shirts like cardboard fibre. We'd no money for laundromats, Immigrants don't waste like that; We made the move from Ireland, Turned our backs, washed our hands; Chose Sarnia to make our home. Yes, Mammy washed our clothes with stones; She'd string lines from wall to wall, And draped our patchwork overalls. In autumn, winter and early spring, Our house was strung with clothes line string; Socks dropped on chairs near heating vents, Every room had ***** like tents. One day Daddy stretched a line From our back porch To the farthest pine. Looped the wire on a tubeless rim, Secured the ends with linchpins. Mammy was so pleased with him. We four saw what he'd done, He'd made a ride for his sons. We were gliding like clothes drying, Riding down the yard. Flapping, laughing, having fun, Like human clothes under the sun; We , however, were burdensome, The line gave up, and we fell hard. On blustery days when sheets are snapping, I recall the clothes line cracking, Our fall from grace had nothing lacking. Oh, I remember he chastised, But I also remember Daddy's eyes, And how they smiled When he told his friends He hung his sons Out to dry.

Hung Out To Dry
I stare, intently. He glances momentarily. With its big calf eyes, the skin peeling away from its lids and its hides. They float by, I gaze quickly at their popped peepers which are skinned like white grapes, and they go about their day. I love them, them and their color palate, their unique selection. Bloated and baggy, bubbling up, it looks so goofy that I cannot stand it. My mouth gapes at the dazzling gold bands, the alternating tan lines, the glow-in-the-dark marks, the cool blues and the light blues alike. They seem startled and pouty. But what to do about the **** They cannot leap the glass and twirl with us, dance with me, fly past the current ripping by. Poor things…how they wish they were wild, undomesticated and free. They want to be near us. I see it in the gestures of their prehensile ***** that smear the glass as they press in, trying to chart our turbulent patterns. I wonder in my head how they breathe so easily, flopping about their blue-tinted box, drinking deep the LOx fed in through a tube somewhere as the world morphs and vibrates between us. It is full of grey energy. Like a cloud in a lightning storm. Ever changing.
