"go." (2016)

You're in view, drenched in a rose colored bloom
At sunset our steps silhouette the avenue
Moons ago we met, two molecules passing through
Complex in design, my approach: rather casual
A relationship set sail, smitten by our ways
Crashing into bedsheets, cresting with the waves
A storybook beginning leapt up from a page
But in time, a fine wine can sour from its age
Sentiment to sediment, we’ve taken for granite—
The soft sweet nothings. Habits set in stone tablets
Chiseled away 'til there was nothing to keep
We meet down at the café, our usual seats
Reminiscing as lamplight litters the street
Coffee sips to the lips—the bitter and sweet
As hands unfold, Life’s a strange game, I know
When to grow, you have to let your petals go.

"6.12.94" (2016)

Twelfth of June. I can still smell her perfume
Listening—bacon sizzling—morning cartoons
These technicolor memories adorning my room—
While the rain is pouring, this mourning's for you
The warm squeezes—melted me—grilled cheeses
The borders we worked around—puzzle pieces
Picture perfect—every day that the Earth twists
Flowers in the garden, calling me your Orchid
She could thread a needle in a blink of an eye
The same speed disease unraveled her mind
"In God's hands," but God damn, hers were all mine—
Those wrinkles and lines, reading a Wrinkle in Time
Art is from the heart, you said, bled so our eyes can see
Poems at the park, keys of ebony and ivory
Art is from the heart—bled so my eyes can see
This dear diary, my Lee Lee is still alive in me.

"a[d]diction" (2015)

The death of me: these words work incessantly
Like cooks in a kitchen mixing without a recipe
Phrases speed on pages, collision on the precipice
Crash of a diction, the prescription is the melody
Art is a catharsis—or a needle to a vinyl vein—
Scratching the surface, bleeding as I write away
Drowned in the sound, surfing on a tidal wave
Sands through my hand, slipping with the light of day
Been drunk off the ink, the pen parries the sheets
Stabbing wounds in a womb to carry the seed
The birth of thought, blooming, I'm buried beneath—
The root of all evil, and now its married to me
All bark and not a bite from the family tree
Let's pretend we're all peachy, syrupy sweet
Knocking ourselves out for the feel of the beat
Popping pills/taking notes hoping nobody sleeps . . .

on me.

"throne away." (2013)

Words whipped together, slaves to the pages
Eye lash an ink splash—the wave that invades us
A master of the craft? Or a chapter from the past?
Sweat and tears reared an empire for the ages
I siege to seize them, breathe in and free them—
A continent of consonants, my legion of demons
The letters are unfettered, bathed in a cadence
Of unchained melodies, bars from their cages
A blade to its skin—showered a page with a pen
Cut across the surface, birth the stains from within
I read chivalry's dead, to knight is gone today
Rise to see the son who'll put me in my grave—
Prince and a pauper, all the paper stones to play
Kingdom comes crumpled up and throne away.

"abracadaver" (2010)

Circumcise my mind, words worm within-
Bleeding on the paper, knives to the skin
This peeling peak’ed page incised with a pen-
Cut to the core, We feel alive once again
Drive into the depths of me, etch in the memories
Until life’s lines pronounce them dead to me
The vein of my vanity, the art in my arteries
Circulate but never escape from the heart of me
Food for thought: hard to stomach the honesty-
Swallowed just fine but lost with my pride
In roses and thorns adorned for the mourned
The most beautiful sting grown in the storm
The last breath in my chest still fresh to the death
The beat's from the heart, the pound of the flesh
Let the scavengers search, you’re probably first-
To a birth in the dirt, unearth my body of work.

"CastlewallS" (2010)

Welcome to my Dark Ages
Stark pages filled within
Iron maiden marked cages
I’m the ageless citizen
Dope quotes are the moat
Phrases refraining one from entering
Chilled to the bone
Whistling this wicked winter wind
Put the rack to my limbs
Dragging a pen
Slaying dragons again
Their fire’s kindling
This pyre from within
You’ll never know my name
A raw straw shame, lines are golden
I’ll never know what’s fame
I ain’t distressing over dames
See these seasons don’t move me
Modern day sleeping beauty
Mister black ink maker
On this snow white paper
It’s war when I’m alone
Heavy crown, deathly throne
Try and pick apart my mind
It’s on- sword in the stone
Ain’t think it all I was that deep did ya, dog?
You can’t see the castle for the walls till it falls
Bet you think I wasn’t that deep did ya, dog?
You can’t see the castle for the walls till it falls.

"baby comma drama" (2010)

Watch me a paint a picture
I’ll Raphael for a spell
Where my pen’s a big dipper
Into her well
I’m just thinking this ink in
Tattooing that tale
The whirlwind that her words spin-
Blew in my sail
A relationship passes like
Crafts in the night
But they’re the lanterns that light
The ink splashes I write
Words leave lightly lipped
Like passionate kisses, they’re-
Cracks in the chrysalis-
Wax drips off Icarus
Pastel sounds
An old master, mixing ‘em down
New chapters, Rapture-
The climax is now
I’m foreword
So you’re, the subject
I’ll be the predicate
Let’s make a sentence
Paragraph indented
Love scene’s a theme
Let’s develop it . . .
Proofread your body
Hardly had to edit it
When the birth of thought-
Is revealed
It’s awkward when we chill
Played just the pen tip
To see how it feels.

"the new years Eve" (2010)


Pea coated December, scarves and the sweaters
Kaleidoscope colored crowd packed all together-
I’m fettered within- cuffed to a beer and a grin
Paul Revering the revelry here with my friends
Records spin and women turn leaves on the wind-
Weaving with my limbs, never to see them again
Holiday season I guess, while stealing a breath-
There’s a sweat booze cigarette feel to the scent
Ignored the odor, ordered a vodka and soda-
For a long blonde begonia, from Minnesota
Sort of laughed and gabbed, talked Malbecs and Cabs
Would you like to dance? She used to… tap and jazz
As, we slide on the floor, smooth ivory chords-
Beg me to dip her, our dance steps paint a picture
Raphael'd for a spell until the moment in time-
Finds us all Auld Lang Syne bodies entwined
Lips twist licorice, her tongue cools as it enters
One hand through my hair, her spare pulls at my Windsor
Must she lust a last one night stand, Gen’ral Custer?
My palms play catch up, her body cuts the mustard
Cab lights glide through the black city grid
Like firefly nights, those Julys as a kid
But I’m a man with a plan, to Ma’am, the game’s over
Until she semi-sober rolls over with her hangover.
Um… good morning. I cooked you breakfast?

"in your armistice" (2009)

Blood in the sands, this hourglass stands-
As a test of time, Let’s resurrect these lines-
With a last dance, stepping to a brass band-
Ring on the finger, it lingers next to mine
Watch my arms race, inking an odyssey
An armory can’t keep us safe from harmony
Melancholy melodies, my artery for artistry-
Is the hole in my heart that holds you apart
Part of me pardons me, as a whole it’s a farce
Whispering nothing but secrets stolen at dark
Pour the wine slowly, For your eyes only-
Pierce me deep sea, the roar of the tides on me
Capsize my limbs, but Baby, baptize within
I swim in my sentiments, dive with a pen
War from the start of it, I never put my heart in it
On my honor it’s simply wrapped in this armistice.

"state of the art" (2009)

Words play in this ink, splashing a blue sea
Crashing, storming a bastion of beauty
We soon see… a landscape that’s loose leaf
Start in the margins, end on a cool breeze
This head I hold, thoughts bled from the soul-
Keeps alchemy alive, pencil lead into gold
The atoms collide like butterflies flap in July:
Passionate vibes passing in my stomach’s insides
Maybe it’s tragic, that the art within me-
Is magic, nothing but my heart up my sleeve
Believe in the feeling until all odds are even
Lighting fires of desires when I dream them
But in, the end, only dear friends’ll mention me
Your ghost of a memory, toast of the century.
