The Most Beautiful Woman In The World
She is not by my side
But I sleep with her nightly

Tenth Of May
On the Tenth Of May
My proceedings will come to a halt
I’ll be coming out
And magnifying my electricity I share with you all
I’ll take a bow and finish my acting
Be aware
On the Tenth Of May

Valentine’s Day
Didn’t pull the trigger
Because I know you are breathing
Just around the corner
Just not in my bed, under these cold warm sheets....

Valentine’s Day
Hijacked Love
She stole my love away
She hijacked it from my heart
She cried when I cried
She laughed when I laughed
Her body quivered when I made love to her
Her lips softened when I kissed her
She promised me something divine
She promised me something real
Her eyes spoke to me as I gazed
Her ears listened as I whispered
She dreamed when I was alive in her arms
She breathed deeply when I hugged
She stole my love away
She hijacked it from my heart
She embraced me in the evening
She woke up next to me in the morning light
Her soft skin was always next to mine
Her curves surrounding my innocence
She was music to my heart
She was everything peaceful
Her thoughts were shared with mine
Her energy flowed through me
She was only a memory
She was only a short fantasy

Closed (Version #2)
It’s closed
It’s shut
It’s no longer open
It’s no longer wide
It’s closed down
Retired
Put on the shelf
Nothing left
Zero
Nothing here
Gone
Closed

Love (Version #11)
In that bed of white
I want to lay beside you
And read you my poetry all night

Embrace
I would have the bathtub ready for you
Just after you arrive home from work
Filled with hot soothing water
The surface draped in beautiful flower petals
Light from candles warm up the room to a golden hue
My smile can conquer any of the day’s sadness
With my hands I guide you to the scent of blossoms
Slowly I disrobe you and caress your soft ivory skin
Gently you submerge deeply into the hot bath
Mystical music is playing in the surroundings
We talk and laugh and smile
Exchange the warmness that surpasses the heat of the flames
I rub your wet back with my strong hands
Run my fingers through your silky hair and wash the beauty clean
Give you a delicate kiss on your sweet lips
I depart the bathroom for you to relax
As I prepare dinner for two
With the freshest of ingredients
Cooked to the perfection of your taste
Glasses of wine now await your re-entry
We have a lovely meal and a treat for dessert
Share stories of the past and dreams of the future
Have stimulating and inspirational conversation
Feeling connected during this moment caught in time
I lead you to the bedroom to have our own symphony
...
After the hours of love-making
The kisses to your lips
The traces of my tongue around your ear
The kisses to your inner thigh
The traces of my finger around the contour of your body
The kisses to your nipples
The traces of my scents intertwining with yours
The kisses to your back
The traces of my finger upon your navel
After all the kissing and tracing and love-making
We sleep together, in an embrace.

Happiness is a warm gun
I think I’ll shove one up your ass.
I think I’ll guide one between your legs.
I think I’ll trace your contour with the barrel
I think I’ll plow through the feathers of the down with this steel rod
I think I’ll blast through the night on your bed sheets
I think I’ll enter your soul and make you forget
I think I’ll shoot up tonight
I think I’ll penetrate your mind all night
I think I’ll take this gun and poke you in the back
I think I’ll make you stick it up high
I think I’ll turn you around and make you warm
I think I’ll stare in your eyes and make you cold
I think I’ll slowly make you brace it
I think I’ll quickly make you suck it
I think I’ll show you how to use it
I think I’ll show you how to honor it
I think I’ll make you stroke its weight
I think I’ll make you groan louder at point
I think I’ll deliver it gently
I think I’ll never let it explode again
I think I’ll wish I had it inside
I think I’ll wish I never died

You Are Not Here
I look to my left, and I see you
I look to my right, and I see you
But when I look above me
or below me,
I don’t see you.

Martin Day
Sad...
they ask how is the weather,
and ask “What day is it?”
He just replies with, “Yesterday was Wednesday, tomorrow is Friday.”
(I’ll let you figure out what today is)

And that’s how we treat the elderly today
We either ship them off to old age homes
Or box ‘em up for burial.

I Cry
Because you have won
You are a winner
All I can do is lose
And I have lost
I cry because I can’t dance
I watch you sway back and forth
But my legs won’t move, wont step
Because you are a winner
Magnificent
I am restrained to this bed
Broken glass in your footsteps
You can’t walk to me
Beneath this radiating iridescent light
Above Eleven stories, so many untold
Bullet wounds forgotten
I’m not allowed to pray to God here
Just count the tiles
And forget the Love
Wish I was in,
Wish I was in
You are a great winner, remember that?
The January Spring air
The January Honey dip
Directions given
Didn’t take a drink
Thought you might hide the pills
Punch you in the face
Now all left behind
Nothing is hidden
Come see me now
See what I’m made of
And I’ll show you the actions of love
The visuals of love
The feelings of love
But, you’ll never quote me...

Fifteen Days
Muted Hazel in 15 days
I will be famous for 15 minutes
Wrapped in sheets in 15 days
Gone to heaven for 15 hours
Piercing Blue in 15 days
She will be real for 15 minutes
Silently waiting for 15 days
Gone underneath for 15 hours
Rocked through the sky in Thousand and Two
Nobody heard, everyone felt
Nobody listened, you & I
Rocked through the midnight in today’s morning hours
Muted Hazel
Where have you been?
Muted Hazel
What kind of trouble are you in?
Piercing Blue
I don’t know you
Piercing Blue
Is it true?
Fifteen Days
Away I have swept
Fifteen Days
She no longer has wept
Rocked back and forth
Steady stream
Violent toss
Break a snap over your knee
Honey Dip
Supermarket trip
Grabbed you by the hip
Going to give your tongue a slip
Fifteen Days
Come and gone
Fifteen Days
I’ll here you sing
Fifteen Days
Spread the sheets
Fifteen Days
It’s time to eat
Fifteen Days
I want more
Fifteen Days
See you in February
Fifteen Days
Ides of March
Fifteen Days
Gone tomorrow
