To a Married Woman

You are the tiger lily,
of my idle mind.
I dream of your unhappiness,
so that one day
you'd be mine.

Jungle Beat

The creeping rhythm 
Like a dark bare tree 
Traces your shadow
Hangs relentlessly

Such dreary desire 
Passionate yet not free
Like a murderers lust 
Prone to outburst
In the backwoods it beats
Burning all who dare
Such lonely sensations 
Can be hard to bare

Under it's spell
Confounding, lost
A beatific present 
From the gods

A way sealed and lost
Ancient lore long forgotten
But seal turns to sand
The mask cannot hold
The potent fury
Of the jungle beat

Nightmares

Twisted nightmares
Fed from my darkest fears
That wakes me up wishing 
That I never arose, 
This is not a sad poem though, 
Merely one of contempt
The hatred burns 
The hatred dances 
But I never wish it away
For joy  is out of my grasp 
Currently
And numbness is an escape
The fire burns steady,
I hold my hands to the flame

Photgraphs

Photographs on my desk,
Stains on my sheets, 
Love charms and condoms,
And a stench so sweet,
I used to view these artifacts,
As bond and chain,
A Ring warped and bent 
Like I feel I am to be,
Half out of my mind, 
Half in
One step further
And the lights shall din

Searing

You left so easily, 
for solid reason too, 
I stopped seeking caress and love
Only harshness and brutality 
Cold air and freezing rain
It makes me feel alive 
I’m ****ed up gone 
Blasted awake 
I’m stoic Irish 
And I’ll take it to the grave.
Night is my day
And I’m searching for a light 
So far away

Vampires

Call me up on the telephone
Come tell me that you're alone
Under foggy passes
In tunnels I roam

Devouring purity 
To keep my own
Singing praises from below
My creatures unite 
Making us whole

Awake and cold 
Lurking aware
Fierce predator luring away
Those unfortunate enough 
To come my way
 
Call me up on the telephone 
Come tell me that you're alone
Under foggy passes
In tunnels I roam

You'll come seeking wisdom 
Amid ancient lore
But you'll soon discover
My kingdom of gore

Rumination

The child looks back 
Then forward again
Into this deep black ooze
He has yet to sink

The mother squirms nervously
Fearing for her boy
Because he cannot yet 
Learn from past mistakes
More gift than folly
To be weightless and free
Yet untarnished 
By ruminating misery

The man he sits 
In a corner, in a ball
He can never forgive
That which he has done
A shadow of himself
His Father he had became
Forever imprisoned, 
Yet he has the key!
But he does not know it 
In the silence he weeps

Zzzquil

The bottle of Zzzquil is empty 
but tell me where did it go?
spacing out in the corner
trying to figure out who would know

The bottle of Zzzquil is empty 
yet there's a dim light still on
laying in my room
hoping for at least a yawn

The bottle of Zzzquil is empty 
yet the ticker goes quicker and quicker
Not to sleep, not now nor for a while
It's a curse I've had 
since I was a child

But could it really be?
Have I really drank it all?
Drowsiness has eluded me 
though I do feel quite stoned
staring at the ceiling 
where cracks begin to form

This ritual is most common
it happens every few days
when I come home from work
in my bed I'll stay 
awaiting my dreams
in the quiet dark haze

Manic Pixie Girl

You're everything I've ever wanted
But that I cannot have
God can be so cruel
I've been dealt a bad hand
So can we hit the reset
To try another roll of the dice
Maybe fate will have mercy
Maybe you could be had
You manic pixie you
I only want your hand

Lost

Dreams of gold
take you away
from this room you sit in 
everyday
having fantasies of fame,
of playing the game
waiting for it all to come
now it's rusted and cold
growing old
on this dusty train
that never went nowhere
never said nothing
never did nothing
everything's still the same
only myself to blame
