one little spider
I saw the ***** in you She walked out and said hello She smacked me upside the head And almost ended me, like I was Macbeth or Cyrano I saw the ***** in you She looked me in the eyes With a heart full of jealousy and lies Took advantage of my emotions And left me drowning in a tear filled ocean I saw the ***** in you, she was hard to find The ***** that said I'm less of a man, For breaking down to cry.

The ***** In You
This is not a breakup poem This is not me liquifying when I open my eyes in the morning This is not my furious animal tearing at my chest to control the thrashing inside This is not the bile that burns my throat And this is not the hollow in my abdomen This is not a breakup poem This is not your static sobs and back-breaking voice cracks This is not your acid apology This is not your deadly uncertainty And this is not the jagged shards of yourself This is not a breakup poem This is not the blood bursting from my scraped elbows and knees when I went head over heels because you promised you would catch me This is not my pavement-smacked stinging palms This is not the gravel in my wounds from when you let go too soon This is not a breakup poem This is not your whiskey bottle on the shelf at the foot of my bed, a gentle reminder that now I have nightmares alone This is not the toothbrush and the hair gel and the speakers and the things that have more staying power than you And this is not a breakup poem

This Is Not A Breakup Poem
Mum had been gone a couple of months, six I think… (An ordinary day, feeling hollow but doing OK) …when I realised I could get rid of the sofa. I thought it was ugly, she thought it was a bargain. A sofa’s not a keepsake and it was certainly no heirloom. I’d not inflict it on my kids. I got rid. If I could’ve had her back then? I would’ve done. Even if it meant keeping the sofa. Redecorated. Bought a new telly. Spent frivolous amounts of cash on scatter cushions. She disliked scatter cushions. I thought they were cosy. My little boy drew on one of the cushions. On purpose. I was about to smack the back of his legs… (Mum would have, she smacked me when I was little) … I stopped. I never wanted to. Had known all along, somehow forgotten. If I could’ve had her back then? I would’ve done. But she would not smack my children. Mum had been gone a year… (Planting bulbs, feeling conspicuous carrying a shovel ‘round the churchyard) …and I missed her. It was as hot as the day she died. There was no breeze up on that hill, no cloud. Beautiful views stretched right out to the sea. My little boy had grown, he helped carry water and dig holes. My baby was learning to walk, she wobbled on uneven turf between the headstones. I wanted Mum to see. If I could’ve had her back then? I would’ve done. No question. Mum had been gone three years… (Bulbs were doing OK. There was nothing left to plant that rabbits wouldn't nibble) …and I realised it was time to move on. I kept the ghosts quiet while agents showed people round. The house sold. We moved away. A warm, terraced place in a small town by the sea. Dad died. Mum has been gone eight years and I miss her. Looking out from the Downs across cliff-top and sea, the churchyard seems nothing more than a soft-grey fleck on the green edge of town. If I could bring her back now? Everything’s changed. Ghosts exist. They sit in empty chairs and speak kettle-whistle. Wishing us well.

*I stopped by for a cigarette and to hear a story He always told the tale of one eyed molly She lost her eye In a fight with a dog The moral of the story was Never trust something Just because it may look harmless, Even act harmless But this day he told me another tale The one of old Lumberjack Dale* He was large like an ogre Chopped too many trees to know of Was stupid according to my uncle This gave me quite a chuckle He left off, on a normal morning Hiked up the mountain To where the clear dirt’s mourning Held his axe and began to swing The trees didn't have a prayer He thought he was king One fell down He yelled "TIMBER" Another smacked the ground He Yelled "TIMBER" Then another and Another Birds were scattering Squirrels were flying The sounds were of a madman grunting through fire "TIMBER" The fifth hit the ground The lumberjack ogre Had to sit down He swung one too many times, on this here day The mountain swung back with a black bear, ok? Protecting her cubs she wrestled the big man Teeth in his arm and his axe in his hand He squinted his eyes and flung the weapon Missing the giant bear standing about 6' 11" The mountain whispered to the lumberjack "Leave and never come back" He had ****** his pants and ran for the shack "TIMBER" The old black bear followed Protecting her land And the ones she adored

Lumberjack Dale
The dunes are tall, but, we can still hear the crash. The smell of salt reminds us, of treasured frames. You asked if I remembered, “yes” I do remember that one. Flour like sand, it cradled our feet. Our palms smacked, the land. As we progressed, to our full stride. Loops of gold, surrounded us. Tickling the laughter out of us, it echoes beautifully. In slow romance, your gaze meets mine. That is when you turned, 'click' a pose framed, by my eye. The shutter captured, a moment of escape.

A photographic escape
I was a child of the river. Always living within walking distance of the restless water, the uneasy docks, and the anchors that kept the boats steady. Even as the current smacked against the starboars, the sailboats would waiver but never fall. I admired their tenacity. A child of the river: strong but restless; the anchor and the starboard; a suburban sadness-- a yearning for something beyond the river, but too weighed down to sail. A child of the river, stuck in a stagnant town.

River Child
Eggs, eggs, toss them high in the air Catch em, and gargle, and mash them, and swear Eat them with shells, eat them with sauce Eat them with bags, eat them with moss Eggs, eggs, between sandwich bread That's what the wise elderly miller had said Before came the bomb and he had dropped dead Before being poisoned by a surplus of lead And then came a centipede, long and sanguine And bit a small child, so recently weaned Off the protein derived from his mother's fine eggs So he had to start munching on his mother's fine legs "Be warned" said the Miller, his hair all askew While dousing his wounds with mountains of glue A tapeworm emerged, and looked toward the sky Feeling envy toward all the birds that could fly But the Miller was quicker, even in old age He smacked the worm soundly, in a manner enraged Bruised from the damage, and covered in glue The worm turned away from the sky that was blue Never with pelicans would he fly with delight Never with owls would he soar through the night For all Darwin's cruelty, an injustice rings Tapeworms simply have no need for wings So he bit the old Miller, and laid ten thousand eggs They hatched and devoured his liver and legs And as the man writhed, waiting to die He vomited upward, up toward the sky The tapeworm went flying, up toward the clouds The air felt exhilarating, the rushing wind loud For once in his life, he soared with the birds Then in came a swallow, and bit off a third His body, segmented, fell in parts to the ground Tears seeped from his eyes, his face in a frown From the ground he gazed up into the ominous fog Before being lapped up by an unlucky dog The End

***** Cinderella You’re way cooler than she is Let me put on those sparkling shoes for you You've worked hard enough as it is Not everyone works as hard as an independent woman The other guys should take notes You wrote them all down on Stick-e notes And smacked their foreheads with your written words Isn't that what most people want to do to some people? She doesn't play any games She just gets the job done

Discipline (Haiku)
If this poem had a life before I wrote it, this poem was a penguin. This poem waddled, not just because it was a penguin, also because this poem was fat. This poem was a fat penguin. And not just the black and white kind; this poem was an electric blue fat penguin who never really understood it was different until its parents let it out to play with the other little penguins and they started teasing it and calling it blue bird. Until that moment, this poem had no idea that it was a bird. All this poem knew was that its heartbeat was like a simile and it had metaphors for feet and they did not dance. This poem embraced its electric blue nature and never saw itself as the underdog because it was a penguin who lived in Antarctica and it had no concept of what a dog was or what it might be under. Penguins just don’t think like that. This poem smacked a seal with a couplet underwater. None of the other penguins believed it, but it did. This poem waddled with a lazy swag and leaned a little to the right so sometimes it walked in circles. This poem had 360 degrees of perspective and -50 degree wind chills. This poem had more than 50 words for snow and no words for poetry. It just lived and didn't even listen to what other people wrote about it because it's windy in Antarctica and you can't really hear much.

6 of 30 - The Life of an Electric Blue Fat Penguin Before It Became My Poem
The strength You have when you open that door Knowing you will be smacked right in the face But you continue to embrace The strength When you speak to your inner demons That clog your mind with continous Negative statements Stabbing the every window to happinesse You release You grab them by the neck And remove their lifeless heads The strength When you enter a dark room Lost and feeling unusual You stop and Become familiar with being lost You are delusional You are a creation that beats them all Remind yourself to be humble Charactersitics , and flaws get you in trouble But you release the worries And double your risks Dont be in no hurry You are full of strength You're boundless to many successes You are unlimited I love you Because you are different

Okay, It goes like this you see. 10pm, on a late thursday evening. I was sweating like a ****** in church. I grabbed my armbands and turned on the shower. It was cold as ice to the touch, but begun to warm up eventually. Thank god my wife remembered to turn the geezer on or else I was going to slap a ***** create waves of flesh on that ugly *** face of hers. Anyway. After stripping down to my birthday suit, I popped on some shampoo and spreaded that **** in my hair. Creating a burning sensation, tingly, like ants crawling in my head. Suddenly I was smacked like an unwanted child by the smell of burnt toast in the air, with the shampoo still sitting in my hair. I turned around and right before me, something was coming out of the plug hole, like something out of a b-rated horror movie. Looking like my wife's homemade cooking, **** was alive, and then it lunged at me. I tell you, if it was not for those Tom Cruise movies lecturing me in the art of total *** kicking, I would be a dead naked man with armbands in a tub, being eaten by the unholy guacamole. You gotta believe me, when I tell this story, This was not all in my head, You can't just write off what I have said. I know it must sound insane, But a mexican's lunch crawled out of the drain, I beat it's *** like a drum, like Lars Ulrich at a metallica concert , and sent the **** back down the hole it crawled out of. The devil wanted to bring me down to the deep end, It is a good thing I bought my arm bands.

My foggy mouth tries to hide behind rain-smacked glass. She says goodbye with complacent stares and with the sudden flash of an umbrella. The red of her dress doesn't belong in my life. Each of her strides carry my resentment and weariness, alongside the melting grey of the Seattle skyline. So, I don't yell for her or imagine our lives, as the windshield wipers sweep her image, out of sight, but not out of my head. I return home, the half I was for decades. The tread of my shoe mashing bluegrass, digging up seeds and insect carcass, with every step. Storm-soaked magazine subscriptions lay on the porch, and her name is tattooed on every one. The dog lays on the carpet, ears and eyes perking up at me. And he knows he's truly alone, because I'll depend on him. Eggshell kitchen cabinets are jammed with her: Vermilion, saffron, and burgundy glasses hold half-empty hangings of golden flat draft, keeping her day-old, dried saliva smothered on the edges, like transparent ocean waves dying on a glass coast and buried in the bottom of the sun-pierced vortex. What I couldn't realize is that the cup was me: marked in so many ways, letting decaying memories burrow and stay.

The Melting Grey of the Seattle Skyline
Rubber erases deep spaces line traces where her face is Her smile cracked lips smacked eyes tacked fade to black Imperfection turned dissection forgot protection late detection She weeps Because she hears it sleep Fearing it may seep the scars just as deep Now she cries sad lullabies emotion unties... Rubber erases deep spaces line traces where her place is Lost and torn her heart out-worn her body scorned her mind forlorn Rubber erases deep spaces line traces where her base is Rubber erases deep spaces line traces Rubber erases deep spaces Rubber erases Rubber

Fanatics fixed their eyes upon The screen to cheer their team The mood there in the air was tense Tricolor seemed out of steam The clock was counting down The time was drawing nigh Doomed to lose and head on home Bid Russia their goodbye An errant shot deflected out Gave them one last chance To score a goal and prance about Show off their famous dance From the corner, the ball soared in A hero rose above Mina smacked it with his head And won his country's love England shocked to see the win Snatched right from their grasp Colombia delirious Successful at last gasp And thus the game was sent along Into the overtime Two periods were played to nil Two teams full in their prime Penalties would now decide Which team would advance The locals glued to their tvs The nation in a trance Falcao scores! Kane as well! Cuadrado, Rashford too! Muriel then strikes one home Tricolor up three to two! Ospina blocks the next one Hypes up the frenzied crowd But Uribe hits the crossbar And the silence echoes loud Trippier knots it up again We're down to final shots Bacca fails to get his through Past Pickford's valiant swat Fate rests upon this final kick Well placed with perfect spin Just past Ospina's outstreched hands Dier seals the win The cafeteros reel from shock No sign of jubilation But still the crowd, crushed in defeat Show their appreciation Colombia eliminated We give them all a hand And though their World Cup here is done I'm now their biggest fan

Adios Cafeteros (an ode to the Colombian national team)
I never had many friends I was always late to school Ate lunch alone Maintained grades pretty well Graduated Lived at the same place Moved schools to a 3 year middle time Became captain on a basketball team Maintained grades pretty well Heart Broken They took my dreams They threw them down Past my knees and below my feet No school no school no school Good grades and school dreams shot down From there even after some injuries I went downhill Like I did when I gained a concussion I fell and smacked the floor Point blank like a gun at a shooting range High school in black and white No friends and only anxiety attacks No more sports teams or good grades Skipping class my attendance was doomed Moving along as if hurdles were in my way Hospitalized twice and almost once before Scarred waist and black decay Tear stains throughout the night When I could only lay awake Words trapped inside, my mouth a cage Summer smoking gone by now in 10th grade Two attempts Sleeping day and night No attendance period throughout the day Grades and mind slain Semesters slipping away like life Passed one regents of which previously I failed Grades go in I start trying again I attend full fledged new meds Passing grades like a miracle Slowly falling behind Broken thoughts along the night Slipping away like the shadows in the light Stopped going to school again But why? I feel no pain No grades nor attendance No improvement no getting out of bed The meds aren't helping I only feel, there are no thoughts in my head Ruining my future must repeat 10th grade Getting worse no emotions Going back to the way I was before No friends no trust Regret fills my veins people are going away They must know that I'm not immune to all pain

The past years
I never had many friends I was always late to school Ate lunch alone Maintained grades pretty well Graduated Lived at the same place Moved schools to a 3 year middle time Became captain on a basketball team Maintained grades pretty well Heart Broken They took my dreams They threw them down Past my knees and below my feet No school no school no school Good grades and school dreams shot down From there even after some injuries I went downhill Like I did when I gained a concussion I fell and smacked the floor Point blank like a gun at a shooting range High school in black and white No friends and only anxiety attacks No more sports teams or good grades Skipping class my attendance was doomed Moving along as if hurdles were in my way Hospitalized twice and almost once before Scarred waist and black decay Tear stains throughout the night When I could only lay awake Words trapped inside, my mouth a cage Summer smoking gone by now in 10th grade Two attempts Sleeping day and night No attendance period throughout the day Grades and mind slain Semesters slipping away like life Passed one regents of which previously I failed Grades go in I start trying again I attend full fledged new meds Passing grades like a miracle Slowly falling behind Broken thoughts along the night Slipping away like the shadows in the light Stopped going to school again But why? I feel no pain No grades nor attendance No improvement no getting out of bed The meds aren't helping I only feel, there are no thoughts in my head Ruining my future must repeat 10th grade Getting worse no emotions Going back to the way I was before No friends no trust Regret fills my veins people are going away They must know that I'm not immune to all pain

To the men who have hurt me, both physically and emotionally. To the men who have sexually harassed me. To the men who have tried to coerce and guilt trip me. To the men who tried to take advantage of me when I was 15, the lowest point in my life. When I was weak. Destroyed from depression, from bullying, from the transition of middle school to high school, from anxiety, from blind parents and others ignorance. To those of you who knew I was in a ****** up state of mind, who pretended to support me when I was crying, only to run your hand up my thigh and whisper "I can make you forget about it." To the boys who abused me, insulted me, struck me, brought a suicidal teenage girl to the point of destruction. To the guy who didn't quite **** me, but who came close. Who grabbed all over me while I shoved and smacked and told him to stop. Who tried to get inside me without my permission and who tried to guilt trip me, calling me a tease and telling me to lay down and pretend nothing was happening if it really bothered me so much. Who tried to teach me to retreat inside of myself at human contact so I wouldn't resist. To every guy who approached a mentally destroyed teenage girl who was drowning in herself to try to get ****** favors, to try to get me to trade my body for drugs, to try to bring me down even further so I wouldn't say no. Because I did say no. I always said no and fought and nearly vomited every time a guy started groping, started making lewd commentary in what started out to be small talk, every guy that grabbed at me without my permission and leered and tried to grind on me without any context other than you had a hard on and I looked weak enough to force yourself on. I hope someday someone rips you all apart. I hope someone tortures you, tries to blackmail you, coerce you, makes you feel like garbage when you're at your weakest. Because as much as all of you tried, even this fragile, broken teenager rejected you. Fought her hardest to get away from attempted assaults and made it, clawing and screaming away from you. Cried silently as angry, mocking messages came in but didn't dignify them with responses. Ignored angry phone calls from multiple numbers and continued to live, even when you all tried to break me into a *** slave. **** every last one of you up the *** with a flaming ***** I hope you all go through hell. I was going through hell and you all tried to destroy me, to incinerate my spirit in the name of getting someone to touch your ***** I hope you go through worse. I hope somebody castrates you. If there is an almighty deity, I hope they curse you for eternity. I hope you all know that the girl you tried to destroy for your own sadistic pleasure is stronger than ever before.

Alice and I were fudged fruiting inside Falstaffian freakish fleur–de–lys: She inside a quack–aztec–tattooed tank, Me inside a pendulous magenta harness with polydactyl–perverted plumes bespattered into it. In the ****** **** of that kaput flophouse We creosoted our conks all the cockatrices of the gorge–de–pigeon, Inside crotches, Jacuzzis and homocentric Action Men. Alice, with the pornographic bend sinisters in the teeth of her poltergeistish fajita crocodile, Smacked of the plug–ugly poofter of a south–south–west by south sackful sandbank. I cemented the jaundiced dangler of an ostrich to my prick. With that and my uncut fiddlestick of knobs I was the idiosyncratic and wholehogging sadomasochistic slapper! We banged the bush streaming proboscis in tentacle Through smorgasbords of hermaphrodites and high muck–a–mucks While Ravi Shankar’s idioglossias and cockchafers juddered our titbits. Our Moonies were classically cracked flabelliform by the time we disinterred them. Alice managed to fornicate incognito white elephant on behalf of myself And we were passionately on the back of the dingdong, naked as our Moonies. We kept one’s pecker up wrapped up in the shadowgraph Athwart ever-strangling girdles of formaldehyde, ozone, fomenter and widow’s weeds, Athwart polytetrafluoroethylene–pricked precipices and then down to the butts Where we both came to a sticky end on our jockstraps and leered at the ballet dancers That we then penetrated rhythmically by elongating tumescent our gang banging tentacles. Through comfortable French knickers I burped, “Thank you for ****** me everywhere, Alice”. In the soporific honeypotspunk, aped on the ooze, I could smell that her **** had made her ******* type soap flakes break the sound barrier, Splashing out a ***** whale seed skirting her jowls. “You’re fragrant, flypaper”, she rapped. The Government gabble that little green men who hammer out the sexagenarians weren’t on board. Inside spleen of the spliffs, inside spleen of my gangrenous Pollyanna, I will over one’s dead body evacuate. I will over one’s dead body evacuate.

Do you remember Our first kiss Such a gentleman Asked to kiss Do you remember Laying in the grass Brushing my leg I broke like glass Do you remember Sitting on the bench Pulling me closer I was so shy But wanted a kiss Do you remember Holding me close Hugging me tight Not letting go Do you remember holding my hand That day I knew I found my true man Do you remember Walking to the car My **** all wet From the grass we sat on You just smiled I was so embarrassed But thats a memory I shall forever cherish Our first date One for the books I fell in love I found my fairy tale hook I love you my darling Nothing will change that Do you remember out first date? The words I said I wont forget I said your a king You should be treated like one You pulled me close and kissed me Then said to me lovingly Every king needs a queen Then you smacked me on the **** Right then I knew I was your queen There was no question No doubt within me
