POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Coffee and Chocolate
I am scared
To hold and feel soft damp lips test my concrete skin
I will crumble.
I am scared
To feel hard dense arms hold my fragile feelings
I will shatter
I am scared
To reminisce of his thick soft brown hair fall on my face as we kiss
I will hide
And I am scared,
Scared to even think about love, and how much I have to give,
So I turn cold, and believe that feelings are not rational
And yet, when my day is done and my title isn’t so transient anymore
I revert to my child like state
Like the sweet taste of forbidden...

Poems are Bullshit
Poems
Here is the bullshit we write
Only then to recite
Trying to find a readers emotion to ignite
And shed some light
Or are we just too illiterate to understand
So instead we write small paragraphs seeking demand
Attention and approval
We don’t give birth to poems, its more like removal
Painful and non de script
And often than not, we contradict
Its just bullshit on wood
And that I find
Is addictively very
Good.

The Mathematics of myself
The Mathematics of myself
If I add love and power to my soul
And take away emotion
Will that leave pi?
A circular whole.
If I divide my body into four
Will that leave people wanting more?
Or will they be able to see the root?
My core.
And if I add 1 and 1
And remove 2
Will that mean I am 0?
Nothing?
If I became a decimal point
And move one place
Will I be have more meaning
Or have I just been replaced?
Change + the x order + of = me (If you)
Will I work better?
Or just be more confused?
