Written in Stone
an epitaph
covered in overgrown grass
numbers and a letter encrypted,
written to the deceased,
for only those who knew him
you’d truly understand

Hot Spring
the plumes of a caldera,
and the dark clouds,
sun overshadowed,
at its core a scalding heat turned colder
because of similarities
shared this simile
for the changing of seasons, anew
an unforgiven embrace

Table Manners
he wouldn’t let us leave
without paying,
for our meal
had to-go
then bantered with them
and, you ordered to make him take it back
the whole ordeal was a real headache,
I could feel tension in the temple,
and had to meditate, to
clear my head and relieve the stress
I wanted to post a pic of my meal,
but it was almost traumatic
Maybe, I’m just being over dramatic?

size them up
had me my hand me downs
and, we all know too well known
if the shoe fits wear it
nicest stuff is worn out and she wore my XXL shirt around the house
her chores, get done…
one bra in the wash and no panties on
The first steps
commemorated with expensive shoes,
soles being broken in,
a mash of burning glass,
molten sand and in it,
it’s silica content
Sunday 27th October 2024 6:11 pm
approach with caution
veered off, routine stop, in the shoulder…
looking over your paper work,
keep your hands on the steering wheel,
“I’m not going to ask again”
repeated offenses
respect my authority
police officers
a ford mustang and dodge charger
government funded electric vehicles
take a look inside the hood, it
purrs like a street cat with a scratchy throat
cut the lights on and off
I’m just try...

walk the line
My turn
I’m going to
spin the bottle
no one ever even noticed me
in High School
our first kiss
needs to be perfect
you don’t get a redo

love-hate relationship
obsession …
— envy us
in the way they stay upsetting
themselves.
you’re setting yourself up for failure
possible optimism
two glasses
my other, half
fully blurry vision
they’re prescription
usually she has to squint
and hadn’t felt the planets tilt till now

Red Dye Number 40
in pursuit of riches
snapped twigs, and
perseverance
exhausted —
all my resources …
gone,
in the heat of the moment.

Welcome
take your shoes off at the door
I’ll take your coat
your hair smells refreshened
from the ozone
and
remnants of soap
lathered and rinsed out
in the rain shower

Rhetoric
attacking my integrity
questioning… me
myself,
I, was taught there was no such thing as a stupid question
second guessing…
why?
you were impolite.
looking for answers in an inner view

A burnout —

What a catastrophe!

Infinitesimal
dimensional
cellular division
the genomic sequence
time is a light matrix
encoded in
0’s & 1’s
goes on forever …
and, in that order
10, 9.
A singularity
and absolute zero
the big freeze or heat death
he said no one can help us
when, asking the universe
for answers
what, times any number
… is nothing other than zero

This tidal,

We shouldn’t be embarrassed

I’m here for —You

you feel the need to talk about anything.

Web of Lies
Paralyzed
like a spider
checking in on his victim
tied up, entangled …
makes me think
of a bad dream
worsened
the familiar feeling of
waking up to the news of death

smooth...
They say he has his way with the ladies
the bruiser at the door
thought to himself
hey, let’s not get carried away
what a light weight ...
they had been seen leaving together
after a fight—being broken up
over a year at least
she said to all her girlfriends
“it was like I was blinking
then my eyes rolled back
into my head and everything went black”

Bible on a night stand
intermingling with a demon in the flesh
you realize your life was a lie
and your soul suffers in hell
for what feels like an eternal

Ebonics
A child
talking black

acting out of character
arguing about upbringing

Dark Side of the Moon
prophesied
the premonitions
foreshadow people
who live lives with
similarities parallel to our very own
when your third eye intakes light
and all the shades disappear in the night
their life is vibrant
the dream seen as an auric phenomenon
it’s either that
Or, are you completely isolated
in the back of the black of your eyelids
see an oracle or dream interpreter,
our aura’s rainbo...

Fog of War
smoking barrels
in talks —about the past
around the campfire
you could cut the tension with a knife
the only thing needed is a good sense of humor
And,
…try not to lose your self along the way
the buddy system
marching—
side by side
do you trust that man with your life?
willing to take a bullet for them?
behind every great man is a great woman…

Sweating in my Sleep
This is a dream full of desires,
and I like to think
when we go to sleep eternally
our soul
will not be without
the rest in heaven.

Dubbed Subtitles
what I say goes —
if I say so -
don’t allow an application to control anything
they need permission in these settings
and turn down your background music
“for what?”
if I’m going to green light your on screen time
we cannot have anyone getting an extreme close up
portray a picture perfect image
believe me...
flash forward,
when you’re using the front camera shutter you’ll see

Creature of Habit
at times I find myself
with insight
into my third eye
the inward perception
of crystalline tears
holding onto emotions
looking for one thing
The truth

Waxing Poetic
my love letter
stamped with a pair of pressed lips
licked,
then sealed with a kiss
the silent observer.
waiting for his moment
with the present
trying quietly not to mouth breathe aloud
smothered in your undergarments
while fire from the two flames
arose
on a magic candle
over and over
like a brazier come undone

The Vacuum of Space
star dust -
quantum particles —
and, strings ...
from the fabric of the universe
ashes to ashes,
A bindi
black glasses,
fragmented obsidian
and, an asteroid belt
A Shero

hereafter she received
Saturn’s ring.

We Took a Wrong turn
You know what ?
they say,

I’ll go ahead

now, where were we
we’re here
Where?
There.
well.. then,
why didn’t you just tell me that in the first place

Déjà vu & Phantasmagoria
— Recurring
crime seen in your eyes,
reflecting - eyelids
singed… deep, froze
and framed with pain
the negatives
of a photographic memory,
an outlook not unlike,
questioning, asking myself
what have I done?
what am I doing with my life?
what could I have done different?

In the first second
infinite sensory overload

it is up to you to utilize
the central nervous system’s data
our own eye of the storm

reincarceration
serving consecutive life sentences
three meals,
the confines of jail time
three strikes,
and they are never letting you get out
they throw the book at you
like a caged animal
preying,
...as it lands on a page that says
a message from god
sins written on — listed off, and then
sent across the hall to your distant friend again
a life of recycling license plates
crime pays for the chip...

Clothing Line
cut from a different cloth
dyed in the wool you pulled over your eyes
you made your bed now lie on it
tomorrow
is a wonderful day to die innit
I dress my wounds
and wear my heart on my sleeve
with cuff links & fingers crossed

Pandora's Box
Thought,
outside the realm of possibilities
Chaos …

just walk away
pack your bags
and
go get ready
to walk the walk
through the traffic
of differing directions
wave down the runway
and remember…
never, look back

Divine Intervention
where did I put those car keys,
I think I have had one too many,
loss of memory —
and this
drug habit
has me... grabbing my head
trying to
get a grasp on my own sanity

In my study,
the test subject,

Ghost Writer
dispelling of a curse
wards off
unknown entities
who try their hand at automatic writing
ghosts, haunters,
“en animant” in specters
instruments crescendoing
as the light abandons us
no ones home,
signs that say to go away

Quantum Leap
displace - out
from this world
but,
not of it
In finite spaces where mathematics add it, if
nothing changes places with one thing
And, then... again
this singularity is the black hole devouring our
multiplication - signs of the times
how the tables have turned
one number
spiraling out of control
Oh, flower of life...

As the left hand of the queen
