He was a ve...

Ofttimes, I nearly find myself choking,
and frantically beck-kin ing
for immediate intervention in vain,
and my time is a piece of wax

Forsaken

...My spirit,
Incinerated. 
Its ashes 
Descend back into
That dark crater:
That inky opaque abyss,
Where the slightest din
Is swallowed, 
Where that one fragment of light is asphyxiated,
Held d...

Imperishable Stork

relentless bliss adorns it.
It enfolds a blooming dawn
in its fascinating heart.

Inevitability

...                                             I always feel the
                                                 stiff breeze in my heart.

You Hate Me and I Love You

...No, my brain is alive, not dead
To know that you hate me
And yet I love you dearly
I practice love not hatred
I care about uncontiditional love
Not mutual feelings dripping from above
In rainy ...

Prison of Flesh

...Prison Of Flesh

Pregnant and constipated
Gagged
Asphyxiated

Nonplussed and exasperated
Black bagged
Unenumerated
Everything is without
And I am locked within...

Exceptionality

...Such beautiful clarity is within my life line
No longer asphyxiated by darkness I'm fine

Experiences come frequently with bold exceptionality
I find myself expertly escorted into a new s...

to turn to other than

self-inflicted wounds

lost dreams compressed

asphyxiated aspirations

and a las...

Suzanne the Killer Caddy

...I climb in Suzanne,
She ain't no hippy van,

But I believe she's grand.

I turn the key and roar her 
Then I beg her like a schnorrer

of despair

and yet
I draw closer
I capitulate
I accede

anguish gnawing at you?
Just because to start you
ended up the object of
another’s twisted fantasy
and there were four of you
but then G...
