Overnight

Making
fortunes
Overnight
Subtle
Plight
Begins its
ugliness
and she licks
underneath
her own
Arms
because
they resemble
Clones
of cubic
Ice Cream
Cones
I liked
best
When we both
Ran
Ran
From morbid
Dialects
Even when it meant
Smashing through
ignorance
and strength
Anger abounds
Yes
Just as
she slipped off
her tight, mechanical
Dress
All cosmic
Cataclysm
Seemed
That much more
Essential
, we slipped
Kissed

Follow No

Some of us live
Some of us die
Some of us
Spit
& Speak
With vanity
Far behind
Do you fear
Death?
Fine
If you want
For
Some of us die
Some of us live
Fearfully
And outside of rhyme
Follow no soul but your
Own

I Shoot

I shoot you
You shoot me
We'd shoot
A fuckin'
Rainbow
If it looked at us
The wrong way
Why must we give
Creedence
To our homicidal tendencies
Is it not enough
To have every single
Comfort
At our finger tips?
Is it too much to ask
To care for every
Sentient being
Unconditionally?
Go on and brag about
Your ak-47
Or pistol
For
The next time
You shoot me
Will be the next
Time
I shout out loud
"I Love You!"

Fate Nutrient

I flew into
the
Darkness
I bathed in it
for quite some time
I sprawled out
onto concrete
scenarios
to show
how brutally honest
One thought can be
I giggled when
They promised to
be kind to themselves
Oh, they wish for many things
And they fish without bait
This abyss is a nutrient
Rich
Fate

Daily Ignorance

The starving
Artist
doesn't care
about your
Opinions
The starving
Artist
need not
recognize
his own
Sympathies
The starving
Artist
paints the very
landscapes
You ignore daily
....
We are him

Gallant

No jobs
for the
Jobless
No thoughts
for the
Bottomless
Pitted
People
No food
for
the starving
little truths
Who remain dedicated
to chivalry
and
Gallantry

Fourth Ship

four ways
to ignore
four ways
to bury
hope
& malcontents
keep the light
ignited
four more
then the vote
shall be certain
of our sinking ship
swim, swim not
only four more
feet
to go!

Salaciously

Defy
all that
which makes
you
Quiver
if it tempts you
Play
with it
there is no hope
to be found
within
the heart
of
any
Malcontent
Defy
whatever limits you
Salaciously

Pickle

How idiotic you are. You have become invisible.
Stale brine washed down with vodka and limes.
Taste your own taste buds. Sour, sweet, sorrow.
Slip off your dress then hike across Mount Wishaka.
Each hitch hiker you come across whistles & salivates.
How moronic your voice sounds!
Do you not believe in social sanctity?
I dream. You dream.
We all dream of gold plated arches.
This stench is our stench.
Lie back in your self fulfilling excrement.
There is no whipped topping for these tears.
How abused we are!
Place my thumb inside your brine and refer to it as Fickle.
Pickled.
Fickle.

Cultivation (Abundance)

Why do I insist on
marveling at your
Elegant beauty
is it fate that tempts me?
Do you not see why
I'd rather lay down
in soiled gutters
than deny my
Infatuation
with You
In You
pain seems all
too frivolous
(my dreams enjoy abundance)
your beauty
has become
my own
Personal recollection
I adore you oh so needlessly
Yet
I can never turn away
From it (ever)
Won't someone please
Tell me
How to diminish
this wave-like
Essence
(wish it were possible)
......
Apathy makes love to me now
The dissonance
Helps cultivate
My character
I am in need of
A new plot
yet
I forgot
how it was
This all
Came
Into
Being

Create Us More

I created You
You created me
Sniff the mildew
Sitting atop
Hindu
Landscapes
It is feeling
Can you slop on
Piles of yellow ochre
Just begging to
Feel stronger
For You
Create Us
Some More
