One False Move

No more smiles, like I'm in church...my god, I gave that up, I thought...the phoney friends, the chairs, the air's...closest to the idols...the pressures of reply, when all you want to do, is choke...in quiet. Look where you are...midst of pride, of posers primping, selfies limping...pissing golden trickling's...shitting on the good.

Cities of them...pumping preening, bent to task, of taking down, our only world with them. Steroid bodied, tatted freaks, with defecated maps, revealing something something, scribbled on a line...'this soul consigned'...ink out.

All hail, faux fellows...hardly met, whose palms are full of false and frigid shake. 'Perhapth you'd like to thweat...we know a thauna.'  Oh, for Christ's sake, old snake...I do not embrace, nor lick nor lay, to suck, like some egregious Adam...in an alley way. Let me leave the fallen fame...of this lie, for a better.

As, if all is gone, and nothing left, nor ever right...the least of thing's...I do not wish to go this way... without a sunrise of the sun, an evening, graced of moon, nor soft light lamp't, to show the way...nor Jasmine flower and Honeysuckle's grace, to save a bit of what, was taken. Pray thee good...of all that's bad, in my alonely way.

Twins, there are, that suckle sunshines warmth...bloom full, in luna's glow, and no one ever know...angel's trumpet, called, and devil's Flower. One, it save...the other kill, and as those, would contend, should know...they share one bed, appearing...nearly same. So, in this hour of shame and subterfuge, one infant...taken and replaced. The other, wish, but have no truth. No matter what one do...will out, save...simply let it play.

Virgil's Tomb

You are all, Muses. You inspire me to write. You simply, reek of indifference, and self interest.You fire me off. I would miss that. If I could count the crosses, I've seen poets...here, hanging off...I'd count one. Most are doing well. It's fine up here...no complaint...view's to die for. Oh...Virgil sends his love.

In The World

My lovely Rottweiler girl, knows, implicitly...when I ask her, where her 'guilty bone'...is. She makes faces...puts her face on the floor...her butt in the air...take me, she says...I'm guilty, I'm sure...but she's not...of anything. She has no money, to hide, to show, to yacht, to sip rich wines...to snog with god's, pretend...divine. She's just a little love...all the time, and she does more, with just a heart, than all the money, in the world...could buy.

Some Dreams

I live not, my dream. Sometimes, I think...you are. I know you, as I know each day...each hour. You are no surprise, and that's what aggravates...that prescience of everything, yet you deny...as if...you weren't  mine. You tend, to play, as if you care...yet, you haven't...one. In all your nights, with all your loves...you simply, do not complicate yourselves...with such...tedious things.

The Banshee

The Banshee, cry wretchedly...of justice. Their clogg-ed streams, of moss and peet...hold tears, that can never be counted. There is nay one, here...knows, their wailing is upon the moor...for something lost. The clean air...children born, untouched by harm...what moon and star cast down, can nay be cleaned, for never were, and is the end of us...here. If you know well, of which I speak...then ye be one, who should na tread upon the moor...the Banshee, fain...to drag ye wee sad balls to hell, for what ye done...

The Question

I am, well acquainted, with aloneness...the uniqueness, in a forest...where one never goes...the trans verbal silence, where hush is spirit...where springs, are fed to a poet. I walk beside the world...it is yours. It's windows, barred. Its doors, closed. Locked...tightly, from the inside. What you fear...is, God would visit? Prayer...a sacrament of mumbles...no one hears...stones stacked, toward the day...you would cast...at heaven? Your eyes upon the gods...your thieves in the house? All about you now, are groves...a path to every dream. I never see you, in them. What is this...this judgement, you have brought upon yourselves?

The Red Berries

Fear nothing, not the berries that are red...the lips are ripe, your own impulse...to wrong. That is...love longs...love comes...be there, when it does.
