Poet Introduction
I like writing but I'm redundant and can be very triggering. Watch out.

I am a ghost
hosting a b o d y
A soul
while flesh is
rotting
Oxidizing slowly
Eternal
but I will perish
Like you.

Sociopathic Teenage Boys & Time-Travelling World Saver's: Angsty Tom/Arry Prose
These quiet soles
cross our
threshold
of a shared chamber
absently
But I feel my lungs
extinguish their life
at this sight
Your back is turned away from me
wild tendrils of black
threaded to your scalp
are soaked and dripping
spilling
little rivers
down the endless planes
of your naked skin
until they rush to
embrace the towel
hitched
at your hip
Rugged and broad
a man with scars
scars I will give you
The expanse of your bare shoulders
slope to meet
symmetrically...

Head-light Eyes
Pin-pricks and needles
I've got a razor inside my tongue
my eyes are heavy marbles
weighing down purple sockets
And my ears are lace
unravelling and tender
please don't scream because we
aren't the same
I am blind and I cannot
tell the difference
from whimpers and itches
Dense addiction begs the question
when the sky's black
in horizontal slits between
my window's wooden blinds
And I'm feeding the night
here at 2:05 a.m. because
there's nothing else to do
but misunderstand

Coma
A hairline fracture
to relieve the pressure
and it's never been better
to have room
to breathe

My skin is itching to open
and sting like my eyes
and scar like my soles.
I am one hundred years old.
This is not poetry anymore.

Gunpowder, Treason & Plot (Benedict Cumberbatch's Cheekbones)
Sssssew snakes in my ssskin
my jaw is itching to open
Slither against my tendonsssssss
ssslick scales align my spine
Hisssssing forked tongues
shivering my senses
Uncomprehensive coldness
But you can't control it
lying unresponsssive
This is not art
This is a seduction like deception
I do not blink
and you will not get passsst me
I am a predator
my jaw is itching to open
Slither against my tendonsssssss
ssslick scales align my spine
Hisssssing forked tongues
shivering my senses
Uncomprehensive coldness
But you can't control it
lying unresponsssive
This is not art

I do not blink
and you will not get passsst me

Frankenstein's Monster
fingers thrusting out to catch it
like tongues, this bleakness gapes
aching for pulse, denied
sight denied
the tongues are fire
oblivion grasped, controlled
inside burning palms
a God.

Green & Silver
This Spring is new, as Spring is supposed to be.
Will we be new with it?
Our leaves have gone and wilted and I hope
that small deaths will yet to be a rich soil that
worships rebirth and cradles our frailty like a child.
Or are we our abuse?
After endless Ages of bruises and scars,
will we yet be the other's redemption?
That takes forgiveness, and, my Love
I feel you will not forgive
as I will not forgive you.
We are our memories so interwound that we are lost
without eachother's eyes.
But that is dependence, and it can be severred. ...

Between Sleep
dark deep sleep
narcoleptic rapture
sudden dip
of lids
closed
leaden limbs sacrifice
do not retreat your warm
red ocean, my Love
as they once did
but welcome the flood
of you in my lungs
I will not turn from you

of lids

leaden limbs sacrifice
do not retreat your warm

How Suggestive! (ænemia)
I lapped at his blood
warm wine staining my teeth
Sweet and metallic
sticky beneath my
fingernails and
pooling in the cavern
of his silent sternum
It sings at the curve of
his throat
frothing madly
For he surrendered
that column of vertebræ
pathetically
bargaining pints
for kisses
slowly
because he liked it
And I gave it to him
again and again
in saccharine parasitism
warm wine staining my teeth
Sweet and metallic
sticky beneath my
fingernails and
pooling in the cavern
of his silent sternum
It sings at the curve of
his throat
frothing madly
For he surrendered
that column of vertebræ
pathetically
bargaining pints
for kisses
slowly
because he liked it
And I gave it to him

Control
I am biting
the insides of my mouth
a bleeding cheek and
I break around the forbidden
barrier of your name
I am wound so tightly
moulding like earthen clay
to your distilled alcoholism
and my eyes like to
soak you up
the insides of my mouth
a bleeding cheek and
I break around the forbidden
barrier of your name
I am wound so tightly
moulding like earthen clay
to your distilled alcoholism
and my eyes like to
soak you up
