Every Night

Every night

I forget to thank you

But tonight, I have not.

 

Thank you

For loving me.

VDZER0THREE

You asked me to leave it alone

To let it be

Just let it go

I did

And now we are both left with nothing

No answers

No hopes

No questions

Nothing

Dying Of A Broken Heart

My eyes are failing me.

My eye sight is going.

 

My ears are failing me.

My hearing is going.

 

My spine is failing me.

My discs are out of alignment.

 

My throat is failing me.

My acid is eating at my esophagus.

 

My heart is failing me.

My doctor said that I am dying of a broken heart.

Sicka Sicka Sista

It’s your Sicka Sicka Sista

Knocking at the door

The blonde brunette

With a salamander crawling up her leg

She’s got the tongue of a serpent

And she won’t let me go

 

It’s cold outside

The rain is falling down on us

Free rounds all around

On me and my non-stamped non-delivered bills

 

I’ve been pushed around

Pulled a bit

Haven’t had sex since age seventeen

 

Now I know that you have given me slow roasted salmon

And I know how much you enjoy the dance you dance

But I must tell you

About the something I have for you

Oh Sicka Sicka Sista

 

Now, don’t get me wrong

I’ve learned so much from your conversing thoughts

And I’ve learned to understand the theory of it all

But why must you invade me like a fly trap

I’ll never quite figure it out

 

In the meantime

Dinner at Eight

Set the plates for two

I’ll be dressed in my suit

With my stockings beneath

Or not

Scattered Love

I have love for you.

It’s scattered all over this hard wood floor.

Pick up the pieces and feel for yourself.

I love you immensely.

There, I said it.

I love you.

What more could you ask for?

I’ve said those three little words.

I’ve opened my heart. As open as it could possibly get.

My love for you is all over.

This earth is covered in my love for you.

Scattered from ocean to ocean.

I love you.

And I’ll say it again.

Why

I can’t ask you why you don’t love me.

I can’t ask you for the specific reasons.

I can’t ask you to go away and leave me.

I can’t ask you to understand me.

I can’t ask you to give yourself completely.

I can’t ask you to share with me what you wish not too.

I can’t ask you for forgiveness that I do not deserve.

I can’t ask you to come back to me.

I can’t ask you any of these things.

 

I can’t ask you why,

For I’m not sure I wish to know the answer.

I was wrong

Missed,

         the last hour glass

         crossing the river

         east to west

 

Penetrated,

         your mind in a moment

         felt like forever

         in just a second

 

Felt,

         your soul intermingles with mine

         wrap and intertwine

         slither in ocean patterns

 

Sought,

         lovers I haven’t found

         or humans in contact

         in last night’s dance

 

Believed,

         in so many things

         if they were imaginary

         but I was wrong,

                                     I bleed.

You just know when you are in love

When she smothers you with everything she’s got

And you feel grand every morning...

Spit, Blood, Fire (New Year’s Day 03)

Fire did not come

Snow Rabbit did not arrive

Cat ran off

Other cat has been called

 

We saw a rockstar

Bought chewing gum on Prince Street

Had my smoked chicken

On Mott Street

No gangs here

Just outside

But a beauty of blonde

Writing creatives just under my bills

 

A toast at home

Shirt removal too

Went to ten and one

Visited the lesbians

 

Left rather quickly

Brisk walk

Did not go

Lounge around back

For One Twenty Five

 

Turn round the corner

What do you see?

Tom & Jerry’s and a big T.V.

 

She thought he was hot

He ate her arm

She hugged he and he and her and her and even me

She felt her ass

We all bought drinks

 

I asked for a better hug

She gave her pussy to her Three Thousand Dollar Ass

Laughter shared

But no B. here

Fun times round

Minnesota, Wisconsin, run into the ground

 

The beautiful librarian kissed

Smacked in the nose

The blood dripped down

Fifty Dollar shirt, now blood stained memory

Fire on the corner

Put out the fire

Saved a life

 

Saved a life

On New Year’s Day

I Got Shot At

I’ve been up working on my art through Christmas Eve and the entire night.

It’s now early morning Christmas Day.

I am an atheist, so I don’t celebrate the holiday.

At about 3:30am I went out to Han’s Deli on Broadway and Bleecker St.

to get a snack to eat. I knew Han’s Deli would be open on Christmas.

They are always open! While walking East on the south side of Bleecker back to my studio, I was approached by a man between Mulberry and Mott Streets. He was a Caucasian man, slightly taller than I, with a black haired mustache. He had dark green pants and white sneakers, Nike to be exact. His jacket was quite puffy, unsure of the brand, but it was black, or a really dark shade of midnight blue.

 

The man approached rather quickly. He didn’t surprise me, because I am well aware of my surroundings. After all, they call me a Bad Ass Mother Fucker. (well, that’s what I call myself when walking the streets of New York City) I saw the man was on the same side of the street as me. I had a plastic bag in one hand, which had some cookies and a Hershey’s chocolate milk in it. (That was my snack.) As we approached each other even closer, that’s when I knew something might happen. It was in my gut I guess.

 

I’ve always waited for the day for this to happen. It finally did. We walk closer and closer to each other, he going West, I going East. In the final moments in our head on collision, his eyes meet mine and he deliberately pushes his shoulder in mine, causing me to drop the plastic bag and stumble into the wall. He grabs my arm and pushes me against the wall, with his other hand he pulls out a gun from his right front jacket pocket.

 

Confronted with a gun just blocks from my studio is where I am at 3:30am on Christmas Day. He demands money, with the actual classic phrase “Give me your money!” Although it actually sounded like “Gimme Yoh Money!”

 

Again, I’ve always waited for this day. I always knew that I would never give up my money for someone. It’s mine. And my theory was always ‘to say no, and if they wanted it, they would have to kill me for it’ I responded with “No.” The man looks puzzled in disbelief, and in that split moment I just took my right hand, brought it up as quickly as possible and knocked that gun right out of his grasp! The gun went flying in the air (more in a sideways motion). I saw the silver piece shine in the street lamp’s light and it hit the wintery concrete side walk. All this happened extremely quickly in a matter of seconds. I seized my opportunity to run. And run I did.

 

But I discovered something I knew already. Humans can’t out run bullets. As I ran down Bleecker St, only a few yards now away from the man. He fires his gun, probably more out of rage, then out of determination to get my money. I hear a ‘BANG!’ and, which seemed like at the exact same time, a whistle right by my right ear. It must have been a bullet, but I’ll never know. Still running, about to near the next corner, I hear another ‘BANG!’ Only this time, I did not hear the whistle wizz by my ear. This time I felt a bee sting on my shoulder. This whistle sounded different from the previous one.

 

I then rounded the corner as fast as I could. I hear no footsteps following me and make it to the next corner, breathing heavily. I look back and do not see the man. I take a few slight detours before determining that it would be best for me to get back to my studio as soon as possible.

 

I arrive back to my studio and find that the bee sting on my shoulder was actually an open wound. The bullet actually grazed my skin! I couldn’t believe it. I’ve actually been shot! That fucker actually shot me! There was a hole in my jacket and my shirt was missing some cloth. And there was a big streak which appeared like a heavy rug burn on my right shoulder!

 

As I inspect my slight wound some more, I phone 911. I speak to the police and give them details and information. The officers arrive in full force, I must say! EMS, the Fire Department, NYPD, all converged within a matter of minutes on my block and front door. It’s about 3:40am now. In my studio there is about 10 Emergency workers. Attending to my slight wounds, but many asking me questions.

 

As they clean up my shoulder and the cops continue to ask me questions, over the radio we are notified they picked up the man which fit the description I gave earlier! Of course, this was now about 4am. The man was found on 2nd Ave near 5th street. A few blocks East and North of our location.

 

It is now 6am when I write this. I went to the Precinct to identify the man, fill out paperwork, and file charges. In the meantime, the NYPD told me that the guy will be put away for a while. Especially since they had evidence and an eye witness.

 

Now I’m going to bed because I have a lot to do today.

I might go back to the Soup Kitchen to feed the homeless,

as I had such a wonderful experience doing that yesterday.

Kitchen Mixing

I made the mix in the kitchen

Got out the milk

Got out the cocoa

Got out the blender

I made the shake

I ate the pear

She ate the banana

Cherry Pie delivered

She brought the apple cider

Flames up the side

I count, one, two, three

Women here, no one free

But me

Love (Version #15)

You told me to wait.

You told me not to look.

You told me it did not exist.

I always believe it did.

And today, I discovered it does!

And you can’t have any.

It’s right here.

I cradle it in my hands.

I cradle love in my hands.

Love.

Crawl

slowly

uncovering

I approach steadily

with my eyes squinting in the dark light

with my nose downwards, sniffing the night air

my hands in front of me

my legs below me

laying horizontally

I slowly crawl across

approach with precise caution

my smooth hands touch the sides

gliding towards

I get closer and closer

crawling nearer

my eyes speaking

my tongue licking my lips

about to divulge in my prey

my feet and calf muscles push me in closer

my elbows dig a deeper brace among the surroundings

my fingers know the direction

the scent is stronger than ever

I feel the heat coming

not even exhausting

but surely, pulsating

even towards me

finally, my head is near

my mouth opens

my tongue extends outwards

and with beautiful strokes and touches

I lick your pussy

Art Slave

I’m pulled around, fucked with

I’m not driven around in black cars

I’m not escorted by the runway models

I’m not high enough or in demand

I’m not shoved from occupation to occupation

I’m not understood, I don’t look to be understood

I’m not accepted, I’m not supported
