I love you Three words that don't tell it how it is I more than love you I want you, Need you, Have you, Feel you, Miss you, Fear you, See you, Hear you, Kiss you, Adore you, Taste you, Breathe you, I more than love you I worship you As my friend As my lover As the ruler of my heart You are all good things Yet you're like no other I would kiss the ground Your feet have walked on Then I'd kiss them too Not to prove I'm worthy Just because I enjoy the sensations Of trying new things with you Time with you is a commodity Much easier to part with I spend it frivolously Purely for enjoyment We live for memories Sleep for dreams I sleep to wake up next to you One thing I always look forward to Is softly kissing your back From top to bottom Then bottom to top As though I am your wake up call Your human alarm clock *"Rise and shine gorgeous, it's already ten o'clock"* I want you to know You are priceless Beyond value Beyond worldly things Invaluable to my happiness And Detrimental to the pain I more than love you

When i look at the moon i realize i am a jumble of atoms. Mostly H and O. and my bones are betraying me. crumbling with every step i take my tendons tearing patellas separating and i love frivolously and violently and wishfully I love like i am breaking because i am. I am a jumble of atoms and sometimes when i walk down a dark alley way and I can almost make out Orion's belt when the light pollution isn't bad and the skies are clear, (which is rare) I realize i'm not going to be here in 100 years. maybe not even 50. and my heart beat quickens and my bones crumble and my tendons tear I am a wisp of time a dust mote a drop of water a passing feeling of remembrance when you enter a town you've never been in and know where to find the bookstore.

I Am A Jumble of Atoms
As your hand travels frivolously To rest on my leg My quiet heart races Then faints Awakened, I'm dizzy And I look around I'm not where I was This is different ground In this dreamworld I wander You take my hand And lead me onward There are teacups of chocolate And rainbows of cream Pathways of gum drops In this delicious dream I weep happy tears As you lay here with me On this sunken silk Made of soft candy Like sunken ships Our feelings plummet Into the sweet sea They had just met They descend into peace Tranquility and ease With every breath lost They gave a tight squeeze From one hand to the other Between cold lips Sweet nothings were murmured And their tale was told Waves turned to flame Covered in fire The cold left quick Flames the new squire The minty swirls Overlapped and smothered The orange licks of flame In the dimming light Our bodies dissolved On lustful tongues Our cries were not heard From our disappearing lungs

Candyland
I can hear the nurses over the din That is my blood in my ears, Coursing through these veins as if on fire. I can hear them say "He's struck dumb, Poor man, gave the boys all he had, All that's left, of course, is a wordless bag of bones, And broken heart". I can hear them frivolously care for the others I cannot see, Whose names, are to me, little anchors that weigh me To reality, like a nail in the ground holds a kite down To keep it from breaking free. I am silent, struck dumb Why can't the thoughts that swirl in my mind like mist Materialize into words and sentences so that a living eye can read them, So that a living ear can hear them, as they flow from my mouth In little indeterminate streams, That can remind me that the world exists beyond what I have seen.

Captain's musings 3
America isn't what it used to be. What happened to the American Dream? Now we're a country that depends on foreign oil. Fighting wars, all on enemy soil. Our leader's a coward, cowards are our leaders. And mother Earth, just look how we treat her. We spend money frivolously, haven't you heard? We even are hypocrites of our own word. The American Dream murderers, we are! The American Dream murderers, we are! Oiled up machines stealing our jobs. As the unemployed let out weak sobs. We let our greed get to our heads. And now soon we'll all be dead. The American Dream murderers, we are! The American Dream murderers, we are! The American Dream murderers, we are! The American Dream murderers, we are! We are the ultimate murderers, of the American Dream!

the snow falls sincerely sorry, like a pale yellow skirt at the foot of your bed- i always said, "i didn't mean it". but i meant it. it's that time of the year, where you'll wrap yourself in wool and leathers, in hopes no one will feel just how cold you truly are, but i can feel it. you drink your whiskey straight, yet feel too inhumane to rest your lips on the same bottle as the only people who've ever loved you drink from. your glass gets frosty. you blow hot, pungent air between your teeth like steam, in hopes we'll see you as some frightening machine, instead of how you really are when you forget that you should be holding up your fashionably unfashionable walls. you're just another washed up actor, who somehow lost the ability to differentiate between being on-set, and being alive. so you lie. frantically, frivolously, and frusterated, that nobody you trust can trust you to be you. the scenes that you build get muddled and confused, rendered too busy by your lack of attention and over-use of the exact same hues. you used to seem so beautiful, until i found your pallet under your worn-down mattress... you only paint with grey. oh, how you tried to hide the colors that i am under a tweed cloak of comfort ability, but i don't fade, and i most certainly do not run. i change every day, and when i begin to hate the direction that my masterpiece is heading in, i change course entirely. i abandon the compass, and the guide books, and stampede across the pages, until i become the new and improved version of who i was yesterday. stop pretending, and just be. you wear your "fight" face everyday, as if you may have to chase a pride of giggling hyenas away at any given moment. put down your knife and act right, no one here wants to hurt you. you hurt me, you tried to hide me, and you lied to me. still,  all i want to do is teach you. teach you to let go of your charade, to embrace the life you've made, and how to paint the sunset as a sunset- not a eulogy.

Despair a place of solace, disillusion a state of being, when emptiness routes the soul forbidding any dreams. You try to smile your placid smile with untold torment tearing you apart inside.  Was it seen?  Could they know?  Have they discovered the secret you try to hide? Ignorance is bliss and in ignorance those around us live their lives blissfully, but pain is bitter sweet and consumes us frivolously. And someday it will all end. Amen

Despair
I stare into the clouded night sky That shines the light of the sun on the clouds Via the moon that orbits the Earth Continuously Round and round Held in by Just the right amount Of gravity. Nothing more, Nothing less. I am the moon That moves on continuously Seeking something more But spending time frivolously. Not moving forward Or backward But Riding a course almost effortlessly Weighing the balance of my course On the moment and not Resisting the force of the Earth. I am the Earth Attracting nothing useful to myself Losing my health exponentially My skin scars grow deeper With the pollution of the bacteria Ever multiplying Not even their deaths diminishing The pain of my barrier being torn By my internal conflict And I... Just float. Orbiting a greater body than I. I am the sun Feeling not the heat that is embedded Within me I question If I can really feel anymore Even though my skin is warm My core still fusing, Beating, Emotions clashing within me So much so that my body Distances its core From the surface And I forget to worry If... I expand so far And then collapse Into myself And become a void ******* in emotions Numbly Because I lost what was left of me. I am the universe Full of mystery Full of dark shades And galaxies plenty Many planets, Stars and satellites That whirl and whirl Into sight Or disappear in a black hole. I am the universe That continues to expand Stretching Straining Out of hand Continuing on Because I can And this universe This body is not mine I cannot end it At least, It has not expended enough To implode Nor do I want it to By the will that subconsciously Remains within me.

When my body is broiled with the crispening macabre glean of anxiety; I imagine myself to be a buoying loaf of cornbread in a torrent sea of acid. my custard colored crust being licked away by the ravenous maw of the current, this is no terrain for a loaf of cornbread in the first place. Ludicrous. Perhaps if I joined the sun swept crystal island of idealism, I could be drenched in honey and bound frivolously in nectarous orchard fields. But then, even here, I suppose a Raven may spot me and adorned with a vulturous sneer gobble me up in my blissful state there. So where shall my pappy crumbling loaf of an existence reside? In the trenches of unbridled realization, lapping me up in a despair riddled prison? Or the land of beatitude and glee unfettered from the brutalizing truths of reality... Perhaps there's some bridging ground between these two polar opposites... but how should I know? I'm merely a cornbread I can't declare cognizance.

Cornbread Anxiety
when it hit you home. *you’re eyes closed at shutter speeds, when the heart sinks, or sank. and each blink individually, starts to take a second of your life from me, frivolously. and your mind focuses, but like a broken lens, you nictate, nictate, like you’re stuck on repeat. and you dictate the aftermath, like you have admitted defeat. as cynosure slips from your fingertips. the closure in the locus. you spoke to me in hindsight, and you spared me in the moment. still glowing, albeit, caliginously. you described the bright lights in defiance, lying sweetly, in a conversation, in constellations, i’ll remember you in full bloom; in keepsakes; we wished to the the stars aligned, shining flowers for you in the nights sky. whilst you fought for your life, in kind. high as a kite, twinkle in your eye, as you guide your life away. still in spite, of your perdition, the latest addition of you. when i see you in ruin. through the body as it mortifies, and your fortified smile, tortured denial, a defiant forcefield, shatters and eviscerate, and as you evaporate; i see your lips crack through dryness, my queen and highness; i’ve not seen you laugh for a while. and as I see time pass, from you astute, a calmness in your eyes grew, and now when you belly laugh, you gasp for air, it’s as if, not much is inside there. as you stutter and stammer, judgement impaired, scared. and yellow coloured, tinged skin, bed ridden in affliction, to me, to you. as it dawned on me and then it dawned on you. when it finally hit you home, nothing left but skin and bones, the final petal of a rose, fell.* **I still miss you. I miss you still. I always have, always will.**

Do you hear the distant bells ringing in the spire? Do you hear the joyful songs of the Yuletide choir? Are you warming by the fire and eating turkey roast? Are you blessed with the company of kin and friendly host? Is every Christmas that occurs better than the one before And will it last throughout your years and be forever more? Or do you hear the cries of children starving in their beds With days of endless violence and death within their heads? Is there always an empty hearth with shivering and cold? Will you be alone for now and ever until you’re very old? Will every Christmas bring to you nothing better than before And will no one hear the cries for help and knock upon your door? Christmas is the time to think of others and their plight When you are warmed with happiness, smug on Christmas Night. Christmas is the time for giving and for thinking more of others; Especially the suffering, starving child, alone without their Mothers. This Christmas when you’ve spent your money frivolously and rash, Think of those worse off in life that die through lack of cash!

FLIP OF A COIN
I have read my last cliché line, and spoke my last ambiguous truth. I’ve found the lack of principle in mankind, comes in both old age and in youth. One born from lack of days, passing beyond so few a night. The other hardened from too many wrongs, being passed along as ubiquitous rights. Truth finding no firm a ground, to grow without contempt. From those whole look to yield its might, and twist it with malicious intent. Those footed in ill-fated hypocrisy, both by practice and in speech. Principle scorn from lips once pure, forged by what life’s path can teach. And though the values of an honorable man preside, at the conclusion of every poetic line. The truth that’s found between each word, can make a man think he is divine. Spoken with word as sweat as red wine, he believes the world drink with thirst. Or so thinks the man who speaks frivolously, without hearing his own words first. So he drinks in his own narcissism, as his words ring forever true. In his nostalgic mind that never changes, or lets in sound anew. And that once juvenile and prospective boy, whose suns were few to shine. Has become a toughened old man, whose life has yet to be defined. By a principle worth shouting, to the heavens and beyond. Beyond his many nights and far more days, who hold to him a bond. Of servitude to his truth, regardless of its legitimacy. That which forges what will be his legacy, for everyone to see.

Illegitimate Truth (March 30th, 2013)
I’m just a man looking for a woman and a therapist One to fix me, one to love me, in any order And you, you’re just a lovely, sweet, spoiled Left by a father, whose death ruined you It burns like a wildfire, ebbing in all directions Our duo resembles a bear and a bear trap While the poacher of souls trains his stare on us Chewing tobacco with a tear in his shirt With a wife somewhere, with all her chords in the proper sockets Bored, dumping her love down the sink with the extra beans Running the water we’ve come to share like barroom jokes. And back to you and me, it was only a month; and I loved you You never knew, because stitches never love a wound They fall away frivolously, and anonymous Much like us, now, with alarms of harder times burning in our ears Yet the sound never fades, it sticks around like the old friends The ones who helped you before you were famous, or infamous

A woman and a therapist
I don't know if you can see right now, your energy is all encompassing to me, you are in tune with everyone and everything even when you don't realise. Your soul calls out, I hear it, is it calling me? An idea, a probability?   I love you so very much. I can only hope you understand what that means. Soul mate yes, is a once In a lifetime thing, but so is love, real love. The meaning just got diluted along with our culture, and tossed around frivolously until it could be applied to all intimate situations. Not so, not for me. You are for me, if you want to be

Speck
Chirruping birds lay in wait; as we passed, the flowers flushed, Frivolously through the woods we ran- heads occasionally kissed by the dew, In my petite hand, a rose red of hue, the fountains of love loudly gushed. As Spring cast her spell, nothing would change, I knew. The cruel scorching sun, the scathing hot winds a cruel blow delivered, Gravely, she shook her head, reassuring words the Doctor sought. A pearl of sweat adorned his brow- he feared. As Summer dawned, nothing would change, I thought. The bitterly cold flakes of snow, the surging sinister cold, His beautiful eyes, shut, were shielded while I wept and moped. The blink of an eye; the reassuring smile he attempted spoke of a heart of gold, As Winter imposed, nothing would change I hoped. The leaves tearfully from the naked trees parted, A surrendering smile, my name on his lips grew, The final breath, our bond severed- his bed away was carted. As Fall struck, everything would change, I knew.

The Seasons of Life.
You are a bird flying near. A simple graze of my arm a feather kept, a loss of fear. And this is not temporary. You are a parade. Your trumpets, your drums reinventing the copyrighted charade. It's not a trick-it's rudimentary. You are fresh squeezed lemonade. When the sweat cannot be quelled, you forge trees for shade. But speaking of you is just supplementary. You are the long drive back. Every worm in the miles of dirt can hear this counterattack- especially those four days of January. You are my trustworthy veins, our frivolously necessary games, and the smell of relentless rains. These senses, put blunt yet gently, manifest nothing less than your infinite trajectory.

Supplementary
I went gentle into that good night; A decision with which I am rather pleased, For what would it profit me to rage? When the absolute of the darkness slides in, And grants me these last few moments I see no incentive for them to waste. Dissatisfied men may cry out in indignance, And let anger and rebellion consume their last breaths, And frivolously spend their last minutes in livid disdain. Wild men who chase and pursue the stars in flight Feel their chests swell with the hatred of submission, But I? I know that the setting of the sun does not oppress. Disappointing men reserve all defiance when it is most required; When others’ blood pours freely and tears spill liberally They will shackle all insurrection to themselves. That is, until they are faced with this finality, this ultimatum That they cannot change, no matter how they rage. Not I. I was content. And with the last gifts, I went gentle into that good night.

Money is spent to make it all right No expense can be spared for love you see A clue to this damp but glorious played up ceremony And being admitted to an elite club of the insane The asylum that many readily join including myself Offers some assurance to believing this passion is true The demonic tones of an old piano Are tapped to the rhythm of my walk A walk to the death some may argue Or maybe the plank to the life that’s more than this one Clicking and stomping of expensive high-heeled shoes And the empty peoples clapping hands Welcome an inviting tone to this unfamiliar place Later, bragging and screaming and loud blues music Plays continuously in the background Skeletons of once known adored people dance around Drinking frivolously and laughing hysterically The cold bars and low-lighted floors Make for a tingling sensation to run down my spine As I see you my friend, my angel, my beau It seems I will be spending my eternal life here Always my mother and father say- Amongst leeches, roses, And the ringing of wedding bells.
