"shocking" poems
i like my body when it is with your body. It is so quite new a thing. Muscles better and nerves more. i like your body. i like what it does, i like its hows. i like to feel the spine of your body and its bones,and the trembling -firm-smooth ness and which i will again and again and again kiss, i like kissing this and that of you, i like, slowly stroking the,shocking fuzz of your electric furr,and what-is-it comes over parting flesh….And eyes big love-crumbs, and possibly i like the thrill of under me you so quite new

I Like My Body When It Is With Your
my girl’s tall with hard long eyes as she stands,with her long hard hands keeping silence on her dress,good for sleeping is her long hard body filled with surprise like a white shocking wire, when she smiles a hard long smile it sometimes makes gaily go clean through me tickling aches, and the weak noise of her eyes easily files my impatience to an edge—my girl’s tall and taut, with thin legs just like a vine that’s spent all of its life on a garden-wall, and is going to die. When we grimly go to bed with these legs she begins to heave and twine about me,and to kiss my face and head.

My Girl’s Tall With Hard Long Eyes
They didn't know what Diversity was... The kids, that is. Since the kids didn't know it, the teacher coined it as "“black” visibility". She wasn't sure if she could make that call so she nodded her head, looking for approval. The interviewer asked in what direction did the teacher see Diversity As if Diversity was a one-way street. Let me just refresh your memory... "“black” visibility" As if decades of progress in the schools were undone, The kids voted on Performances and Projects for “black” History Month. How shocking!... Kids of every shape, size, ability and race studying a time in history... Sounds racist to me. They wanted a Gospel Choir that is clearly only for “black” students Because I'm the student Director for the Fordham University's Rhythm of Praise Gospel Chior for the fourth year running... Maybe I'm missing something... MAYBE I'm “black”... Maybe if I close my eyes really tight... Nope, I'm still “white”. Olive brown perhaps? Only in the summer. Anyway, I digress like Sophia Patrilo from the Goldren Girls Who was Italian by the way. Just advertising for Diversity. Let's debate about "Music Debates" for a moment. Maybe you call it Debates because Hip Hop is debatable, and by the way only for “black” students. When I could argue for days upon days About how Reggaeton didn't come from Salsa but I know **** well that Salsa came first. The kids wanted to Stomp the Yard and battle it out. I do believe rap battles take place around the world And one of the best rappers I know is an English teacher in Harlem Whose hair is redder than a leprechaun. Talent Shows that showcase every student's ability Whether it be singing, dancing, performing their poetry, But still apparently that's not Diversity. Neither is an International Day Where International ways are celebrated. And finally, a Diversity Day, That clearly means diversity is separated. "They wanted a lot of things" Yeah. They asked for a whole lot... of everything BUT diversity. That's right, because they don't know what it means The Kids, that is... Then tell me please: Define Diversity. Is it seeing a “black” horse with “white” stripes Or a “white” horse with “black” stripes? Why is it between “black” and “white”? Why not between “white”, “black” brown, yellow, orange, brick red... Let's get it out of our head That teachers can't learn anything from their students, Because it sounds to me, Like they had a pretty good start to the meaning of Diversity. And if it turns out they didn't, That's what teachers are there for: Make a **** lesson about it.

Your electricity flows out of your fingertips shocking me and making me feel energy in places I didn't know it could reside. Lightning jump starts my heart and sends a current through my body, accelerating my breathing and fueling my desires. Impulses fire in my brain rewiring my thoughts and I can only compare it to crawling in to bed with the thought of Christmas morning in the middle of June. Your fingers send jolts through my nerve endings and power surges through my hair, making it stand on end. They feel like cigarette burns on bare flesh and I can't help but cringe at how much I enjoy it.

Have you ever seen the sun rise? Witnessed with your own two eyes? Watching exactly how it went? Not through someone else's photo captured moment You'll really enjoy it more if you view it live & you'll appreciate just being alive I've watched the sun rise countless mornings It's like my own private showings Each one completely different in every way & the best way to start any day They're bright & beautiful Breatakingly blissful You'll never feel the same once you've experienced it & so many will never understand the feeling you get It's hard to explain but I'll do my best I'd imagine it's like fresh air deepily inhaled into your chest Your lungs fill up with all the freshness & you exhale all that causes you stress Your worries all just disappear Your mind is calm & clear It's a feeling that just forever stays Until your dying days Joy & happiness is all you release It is what brings you inner peace All you care to do now is enjoy everything No matter the troubles & obstacles life may bring A happy soul is all you've got & need Your heart has compassion & optimism is what you bleed Sharing your smile with all you pass or whoever you meet That is your favorite way to say hello & greet All from experiencing a live sun rise happen That all may seem impossible to imagine All that out of just a sun rising? When it happens to you, it IS quite surprising Shocking at first, you just can't believe how you feel & you wonder how can this even be real? If you allow yourself to let go of your worries & any doubt Then you make room to clearly feel what it's about You're allowing yourself to be vulnerable & that's when you become more relatable Clearing your clouded mind of opinions from useless chatter Let's you finally enjoy what most may think or say doesn't really matter Those are the ones who don't pay a lot of attention & are afraid to get lost in their imagination Never will they set a foot out of their "safe" box & risk crossing that thin line It's OK, it's their loss & that's just fine They'll just never understand your constant positive attitude & can't recall a time you were even the slightest bit rude They will never know how to just live happily Inside their soul will be dying slowly Some won't see how beautiful a sun rise really is It's something no one should ever miss A sun rise & even a sun set Are too amazing to just forget!!

Skins touch with a shocking wave of electromagnetic beats, the tempo of our hearts sync in melodies. When you kiss me with your tender lips, my mind becomes... Electromagnetic. Earthly fields summon my spirit when you come unto me with your sweet lavishing ways. You lay there...on my bed, with me...it's just us 2 alone with the TV on and when i turn to look at you, your eyes are more of a sharp blue than the daylight brings. I laid there with my eyes closed and felt the gentle grasp of your hand massage my **** when i slowly opened my eyes around the room...i see you, staring at me with those Electromagnetic eyes and once again we fall into a trance for loves best symphonies. Whenever you're with me, The room, My soul, Our bodies...become... Electromagnetic..

Split Personality You wanna know what goes on in my head, if you only knew, you would drop dead. Anger, depression and suicidal thoughts, maybe its all those little brain clots. Conceited, vain and very egotistical, confused, shocking and very mystical. I'm eccentric, bizarre, and always unconventional, my vision is always three dimensional. I take the path that's less traveled, things I do leave people baffled. Even I don't know what I'm doing, but trust me, I always got something brewing. I practice in the art of deception, I'm admired by my depth of perception. I don't know wrong from right, I see everything in black and white. I'm a man you don't wanna meet, I lie, steal and always cheat. I'm flirty, ***** and very perverted, if we're alone, I will leave you deserted. I'm **** hot and always aroused, every girl I have slowly browsed. I love assault, ****** and **** but I only write it for an escape. Inside my head is torture and pain, I'm certified and clinically insane. Sometimes I take my medication, when I don't, I'm on a permanent vacation. I'd do anything to become famous, even **** Donald Trump in his **** I've crossed over to the dark side, to hell, I've already applied. There is no help for me now, before I go please give me a bow. I'll accept a standing ovation, sick and tired of all the aggravation. I used to be so nice and kind, into heaven, I got denied. Don't pay attention to the things you read, I entertain you til my fingers bleed. Ask anybody, I really a great guy, just like REO Speedwagon, its time for me to fly.

I wanted to know the sighs Of mercy.  On the bed she lied, Laid bare in the shocking light That twitches, as she rolls I hover and cage her in question, With moist eyes, abandoned By loves interrogations, I stab at the untruths and confusions. I wanted to hear the supplicant Murmur of indolence and shame. With windy caresses I break Her arms, she ropes me red In tangled hair and I struggle To let go.  I wanted to taste  The twin defeats of victory And indifference, when in the light Of darkest night there are cries of yes And no and false accusations, There is consuming pain and excruciating Pleasure and as we squirm And seethe, she teases, Goading me and then, I loose it.

Black Like me, I clearly see, I am no longer who I used to be I am a white man died dark, in this adventure I created a spark. People are angry. People are mad. This makes me disappointed, and sad I did this for research, to find the truth. For our future, for our youth. I’m a white man living the life of the oppressed, the segregated, and distressed. A white man living the life of the black, and the truth is equality it did lack It was shocking to find people cruel, who I once knew to be kind They hated me because the color of my skin, their argument against my race was just as thin. They made assumptions, followed the stereo type, dear God America, where are my equal rights? I traveled to the most racist state, where I experienced as a black man, a fiery hate. I found the idea that the South created: We are unequal, unloved, and passionately hated. They stared us down with hate we could feel. It was tangible, it was real. The kind hearted were few and far, I learned much while hitching rides in cars I could not believe what they share so openly, they spoke of their ****** immorality. At this point I was feeling defeated, I was sick of how we are treated I could not take it any longer, but I know I have become stronger. I will fight against segregation, so we can truly become an equal nation I hope for the sake of these great people that one day we will all be equal. No one knows what it’s like to be black like me. I hope one day we’ll find true liberty!

I knew the orange on the orange tree you had an ache in your shoulders uncomfortable in an unnatural way yesterday I passed you talking to flowers you hadn't moved you hadn't strayed but hiding in the leaves was a forced disguise the omens told me something quiet and unceasing reminding me of a slumbering domesticated cat dreaming of cutting yourself loose from truncated ease dropping down from the branch with panther steps licking fruit lips ripe with revealed acidic petals riddled with a past you revelled mixing in with zest shocking chances stepped in for the next dance sleep taken aback by wings cut from a dark sky the sidewalk pitted and cracked beneath the pounce relief escaped the twigs with a spring like waking prey pressing into night foliage shaken from a nice balance as I saw you take control with nothing to mask your face on the surface too smooth for violence was laughter of glowing gloom to embarrass and deter such rebellious arrogance with a twist struggling from a lame curse its flavours sharp against your sweetened perfume muscle expecting you to build a limestone shed for tears rather than take on the night with a mind to wrestle the outside aches for your physical attraction gaining courage from the purpose in your eyes tense as the tightness of your dress' intention demanding that my hands draw from such lines the sinuous heat of pulsing flesh's invitation curved upon seeds not chaste but not quite refined which I try not loving with some cool disambiguation you left me the taste of syrup of grenadine too reputable to ripple vain red tipple eyed on a table spilt with pink gin and mandarin sharp teeth tingling a tartness into my hand sliding slowly at a tilt like drops of sweat on skin focus dwindling into the clasp of an escaping shade wrapped carefully under soft rice paper and then tucked under a heel with a pointed kick like a blade only to feel you relent and burst open soft in appeal again and again

It was an autumn day; a fresh aroma the air. Breathing in deeply, I was trapped in a snare. How was I loured into this dangerous trap, I just was not looking or even aware. There was a sweet sticky dew tasting like mead, This honey nectar turned my head to greed. Losing control I was going out of my mind, In a strange flower bed, I left my world behind. Now wondering in a deep psychedelic dream, I am floating eagerly down a rainbow stream. Tender fresh flesh standing bold and proud, Attracting prey with her bright coloured shroud. Giving in freely, about to be devoured. My censors telling me I was being deflowered. There were silky soft hairs all over my skin, Is a shocking end about to begin? If no one had noticed I was ensnared in this place, It may have all ended in humiliation and disgrace. Now in so deep I have lost all self control, It was as if a demon had stolen my soul. Just then a watchful serpent raised its head, Looking straight at me it hissed and said. “I can see you; you have had your fun, Now it is time to pay, or get out and run”. Shocked out of the dream, I saw my plight, What he said was true, I made my flight. Lucky to escape, my advice is here, If you see a Venus Flytrap, STAY CLEAR.

Venus Flytrap
What? well don't be shocked, it's genetic coded, drilling for dimples my parents did it to me, down the food chain, for a millennium, Baby Boomers, Millennials, Gen X, Gen Y, Gen Z it will be done forever, auto-naturally place the pointer finger gently upon each cheek, commence so soft digging, twisting for the oil of human smiles, the reward, astonishing! a shocking discovery made this morn! *you can do it too "going up the stairs," to Grandmas, Nana's, if you catch them, and with extra care spent, soft so soft when they are just waking up, when their inner kid is sleepy showing* drill a dimple, drill, baby, drill, if your baby/is six or sixty, at any age, kissing an unexpected smile, most worthwhile!

Drill, Baby, Drill! (Dimples)
at the track today, Father's Day, each paid admission was entitled to a wallet and each contained a little surprise. most of the men seemed between 30 and 55, going to fat, many of them in walking shorts, they had gone stale in life, flattened out.... in fact, **** it, they aren't even worth writing about! why am I doing this? these don't even deserve a death bed, these little walking whales, only there are so many of them, in the urinals, in the food lines, they have managed to survive in a most limited sense but when you see so many of them like that, there and not there, breathing, farting, commenting, waiting for a thunder that will not arrive, waiting for the charging white horse of Glory, waiting for the lovely female that is not there, waiting to WIN, waiting for the great dream to engulf them but they do nothing, they clomp in their sandals, gnaw at hot dogs dog style, gulping at the meat, they complain about losing, blame the jocks, drink green beer, the parking lot is jammed with their unpaid for cars, the jocks mount again for another race, the men press toward the betting windows mesmerized, fathers and non-fathers Monday is waiting for them, this is the last big lark. and the horses are totally beautiful. it is shocking how beautiful they are at that time, at that place, their life shines through; miracles happen, even in hell. I decide to stay for one more race. from Transit magazine, 1994

Perhaps I'm encased in a box made out of two-way glass. A biased one-way mirror... Mutual vision doesn't meet nor pass. When you look at me, you only see, yourself for all that you care... Me? Just a faint suggestion that I'm even there.    Maybe that's why...       you ask about my life,       about my strife.       When I'm about to unload my       head,       I end up having to hear about yours       instead. Perhaps at times I travel around in a bubble of frosted glass. Only a blurred version of me... Clumsily ploughing through the mass. Incoherent, misunderstood and unclear. Unintelligible muffles of hopes and fear.    Maybe that's why...       My words are just perceived as       playful rhymes.       Never keeping up with the times.       Words regurgitated but no one       realises what's coming undone... Perhaps what I need is an armour of bulletproof glass. One of unique quality... One ahead of its class. You can do and say what you want. A shell that would bear most of the brunt.      *I'll be impervious.           I'll be protected.                I can be indifferent.                     I can be jaded.*    Maybe that's all I need...            *A shocking stunt.                  A fresh perspective.                       A new plan.                            Revised objectives.*    Maybe a different name to start all    over...       To tie the binds and thoughts that       scatter...       Hoping of holding everything       together... Come morning, all will be       forgotten... Maybe I'd still be beaten.    So for a chance that's,      fat as hell            or      thin just a sliver... Truth is of the three, I have neither... So...     what I've said doesn't really matter.

Imagine
My smooth vermin, you inspire me to write. How I hate the way you infest, Invading my mind day and through the night, Always dreaming about the wicked rest. Let me compare you to a contender? You are more ugly and more disgusting. Hot frost nips the robins of December, And wintertime has the shocking busting. How do I hate you? Let me count the ways. I hate your intriguing infestations. Thinking of your many legs fills my days. My hate for you is the implications. Now I must away with a loathsome heart, Remember my fast words whilst we're apart.

Ode to the Vermin
There is a vicar from Chelsea Who alas is not very wealthy Often he dines on communion wine And curried bat from the belfry He lights a lot of incense To hide his flatulence He gets a bit high Perhaps that is why His sermons never make sense --The vicar gets his knickers in a twist-- The old church roof had seen better days The pressing need was a serious fund-raise So the vicar abseiled down the tower As the village watched by the graves and flowers With a flurry his cassock flew up in the air Shocking pink he wore under there Flapping around it covered his face As he dangled there in embarrassed disgrace Someone called the fire brigade A turntable ladder came to his aid When at last they got him down Humbled and grateful he kissed the ground
