POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
My goal: be worthy of the attentive ear and open mind
inhale smoke exhale insight
chain smoking cigarettes
contemplating
this fictitious realm we call reality
everything changes
this rip tide of time
forcing out fingers from vice grips we hold on today
we attempt to understand
what is true
but
everything changes
thrust into a new morning
where before the night falls
and the moon rises ominously above us
observing all we try succeed and fail
everything changes
except the rotations
of our loop of planetary orbs
forced by gravity
to remain the same
and hopefully...

Unplugged
Stuck deep inside this technological trend
I'm doing my best to try and defend
A dying form of communication
The great lost art of conversation
So if you care to unplug for a moment or two
I'd happily come and talk with you
Of science and reason andphilosophy
And we'll defeat this monster called technology

Love
My harrowing heart
is clenched in a fictional fistwhich quickly contracts
at each and every thought thathappens
happenstance across my mind
of you not here.
It aches
becauseyour brittle bones are broken
because there is an invading illness inside
I can not dispel
our distance rips and tears the membrane of my sanity
until the time comes once again
to share the air
between us
the breath you expel becomes thetasty tempting tonic I inhale
when you are inches away
my harrowing heart flies free
love
oh love
please return to...

Who am I?
Not table or chair or doormat
Not happy or sad or confused
Not friend or foe or lover
Not any single part
Of anything
But a collection of parts
I constantly question
Passed the pretending
Passed the impressing
Passed the impressions you have
Deep down i know
I am no more
Than a breathing entity
With potential for life
Guarntee of death
And one million choices
Of who I am
In between
Not table or chair or doormat
Not happy or sad or confused
Not friend or foe or lover
Not any single part
Of anything
But a collection of parts
I constantly question
Passed the pretending
Passed the impressing
Passed the impressions you have
Deep down i know
I am no more
Than a breathing entity
With potential for life
Guarntee of death
And one million choices
Of who I am

Looking back anticipating forward
precious reflection
of times we created
a magic connection
tied tight with heart strings
moments spent in perfection
I will constantly treasure
your benevolent affections
the gleam in your eyes
a beauteous collection
of memories and times
we made our selection
to adventure together
and change our direction
away from the norm
and technologic infection
and now each time
my heart feels an expansion
I think of our love

Addiction of a different sort
It's better than a doobie
more intense than anecstasyrush
it's adrenaline that starts pumping
every time we touch.
It's more magical than mushrooms
makes me dizzier than K
the most addictive thing
is your soft and loving way.
Yourpheromonesare tasty
and your skin is so divine
you're the sweetest hit I ever took
and I love that you're all mine.

Want to cuddle?
I am the queen of cuddles
the champion of snuggles
the conquerer of kisses
the best hugger through all ages
between the sheets I'm dynamite
so come on baby-spend the night
I'll love you all over and in between
I'm a crazy wild love making machine

Cross roads
inspiration
found in darkness
realization
of a harmless
glance ofrecognition
on a face
long forgotten
in the place
where I once knew
your warm embrace
a sweet sensation
lost in time
contemplation
and denial
brought us here
to these cross roads
now no matter
where I go
in every crowd
I see your smile
the music's loud
it takes a while
to come to realize
you're not here
it was forever
my greatest fear
to wake up from this dream
and see
that you were never ...

All my religious beliefs are Sublime.
Awake.
Baked.
Stoned
and alone
with my thoughts
which resulted from
a non-aggressive
adolescent
marijuana
extravaganza in my home
and no matter where I roam
these concrete
tread marks
lead me home.
They're all I know
because this compass had bestowed me
with misguided misdirection
an infection of the streets
tell me
exactly
where to meet
or I get lost
caught
in a thunder clap of thoughts.
We will have to
turn...

jump
this is it
the point of no return
looking out the window of the plane
ready to jump
and you never even contemplated
bringing a parachute
this wasn't ever meant
to slow down
this was only ever meant
to make you fly
but now the edge is here
and I am afraid
afraid that when I approach it
and decide
it too precarious a precipice to cross
a shoulder check
will quickly reveal
no one
is
there
I walked to this edge alone
no hands to pull me back
as what was once support...

A week of Facebook status's
Monday
fix me
remix me
a bass line that will make me tipsy
without a single drop of whiskey
I want the noise to make me dizzy
if it's heavy
I'll go crazy
but that's the way i like it lately
so turn the volume up to eighty
because when the music is my lady
I'll be going all night baby
Tuesday
I'm a junglist junkie
in need of some bass
so I turn up the volume
and imagine his face
as he's spinning those records
I'm swinging my...

The love letter I shall never send
we haven't known each other long
really only moments
but I fell in love with you
not at first sight
but at first pulse
a titillating vibe I felt
on other dimensional levels
where we have known each other
for an eternity
your stimulating
lingering
energy
leaves me buzzing
for days
but I do not wish for you to know me
I am a ghost
and a lover and a friend
we will always know each others
darkest corridors
but only because I followed closely
down each one
silent
waiting...
