north of face – 12/29/10

12/29/10 – 12/31/10

north of face

drove through rain to search for a place
drops slide up glass into view
in front of me; in front of you
thought it clever when comparing to
the tears rolling north of your face
i wanted to pretend that it was nothing more
rolling north of your face

but you don’t see the wit
in boys without a grip
but you don’t see the why
in men without tongue-ties

false with best intentions
not what you could deja vu
in front of me; in front of you
lets propose a resolution to
meet in the middle dimensions

but you don’t see the wit
in boys without a grip
but you don’t see the why
in men without tongue-ties

peephole watching – 12/27/10

12/27/10 – 12/29/10

peephole watching

donate your eyes to the sight of me
right away i’ll follow suit
you may not have the foresight to see
your image memorized to pollute

as quick as i came now i’m gone
leave you to your question-mark
bitter melody sung by a swan
leaves you to a personal dark

no name worth capital letter
or need for long goodbyes
a moment for worse or for better
a nonchalant baptize

donate your time to the eyes of me
insignificant others
no more to them than sore sight to see
just one of infinite blurs

no name worth capital letter
or need for long goodbyes
a moment for worse or for better
a nonchalant baptize

gag reflections – 12/17/10

12/17/10 – 12/19/10

gag reflections

proved me capable of
shedding waters of body
memory heirlooms now enough
yet few let bygones be

gag reflections she sent
at sight of lifes work spent
gag reflections take hold
can’t replace and break mold

a single box to contain
her attempt to remind
and though it’s not in vain
it’s not you she’s confined

gag reflections she sent
at sight of lifes work spent
gag reflections take hold
can’t replace and break mold

nauseous us..

you’re having me – 8/1/10

8/1/10 – 8/20/10

you’re having me

you’re having me
what might will not be
but it is what it is
what’s mine is his; mine is his

sake of god must not
make love to a thought
sake of god our own mirage

marriage to the belief
due time may bring relief
has to end how it ends
i descend; mine is his

sake of god must not
make love to a thought
sake of god our own mirage

full-time fetish – 11/8/09

11/8/09 10:40pm – 12/25/10 1:52am

full-time fetish

closet feminine shoe fetish
they predict his social deathwish
lines on palms could not hope to uncover
he sells to them sour milk of mother

the slightest of difference
collections all the same
mechanisms of defense
it’s the mind we frame

neither excuse more appalling than the next
given the choice make him the warped subject

the slightest of difference
collections all the same
mechanisms of defense
it’s the mind we frame

it’s the mind we frame

its health & my own – 4/22/09

4/22/09 4:03am – 7/21/09 7:22pm

its health & my own

called to have you check up on my pet
my rings they sang until meaning was lost
heart raced body home; no comfort in telephones
keeping fingers crossed

arrived with the intent to stay on task
i lose train of thought to attention exhaust
hurry conscience, stop and ask while
keeping fingers crossed

oh telephone, no busy tones
only stepping stones
oh telephone, no busy tones
its health and my own

i called to have you check to no effect
my rings, they sang until meaning was lost
heart raced body home; no comfort in telephones
no comfort in telephones tonight

oh telephone, no busy tones
only stepping stones
oh telephone, no busy tones
its health and my own

hurry conscience, stop and ask while
hurry conscience, worried rings dial

2/25/09 – 5/10/09 7:23pm

calendar

all the days i should have remembered

life giver i have tried to lie
scales spread thicker; cover ears & eyes
i’ve forgot so forget gifts I wrap
sit and watch men try and cover tracks
try and cover their

tracks

forget gifts that i wrap
reset bones in my back
forget all the days that i should remember
forget all the days that i should have known by now

calendar,
what good does it do?
pencils used to chew
i have got it, wait until early may
bit by bit then all on her holiday

forget gifts that i wrap
reset bones in my back
forget all the days that i should remember
forget all the days that i should have known by now

don’t have me – 11/16/08

11/16/08

don’t have me

hold me but don’t have me
when’s left unsaid but you could
show me what there might be
can’t give up the ghost for good

remember what only i’d seen:
collage
uncover what only could be:
mirage

hold me but don’t have me
what’s left unsaid surely will
show me what there might be
instant gratify until

remember what only i’d seen:
collage
uncover what only could be:
mirage

chapter four – 9/16/08

9/16/08 – 9/20/08

chapter four

first tried to sweep you from me
that was today minus
three chapters you’ve wrote with me
but don’t stop to read; refill your ink

now the waters rise up like they never will
if the ink does spill i’ll finish off my sentences with squid
poseidon might be biting at our tiny boat
but his sea demons can’t read what we’ve wrote

riding on our accidental water bed
i’m in my head drawing on the cave walls of my brain
drawing every splinter that clings to me
so when i’m three hundred and three
i’ll remember what and who stuck with me

now i know
no one knows
what we’ve wrote

born blonde – 8/30/08

8/30/08 7:32pm – 8/19/09

born blonde

i was born a blonde and i spent that day
wondering how the melanin did change
i have come to learn it wasn’t meant to be
now i don’t waste my days hypothesizing 
why the blondes laugh at me

ha, ha, ha, ha

it’s not fun you poke
telling rephrased jokes
hypothesize every punch line
have i missed the joke?

i’ve watched melanin change
more than days
now i laugh with the traits

all and all we’ve chose siamese
on and on we go shifting shapes

ha, ha, ha, ha
