Carbon Monoxide -Co- Week 3: Talkin' 'Bout My 'NoxideThe steady pull
of temptation--
a tease on
my resolution.
When I can sleep,
I take what dreams
afford me.
In these dreams,
my 'noxide comes
to ward me.
Her smoke is an invitation.
my conscience
falls for
the con science
of my imagination.
I give in
and reality spins.
Between the sleeps,
I lie in sanity.
I wonder:
Did I...

Carbon Monoxide (Co) Week 1: O.D.A.A.T.Chain smoke until
I'm in care of the CO.
There's one left, still.
I smoke it really slow.
"It's the end," I anticipate
As the last inch evaporates.
I can't get
Over it;
It's over before
I know it.
Butt, I can't quit.
I'm possessed with this
Obsession; I'm addicted.
My lungs have oxygen,
Yet I'm suffocating...

Carbon Monoxide (Co) Week 2: Carbon CabronaSmokeless inhales hurt.
I cough tar on my shirt.
As my black lungs breathe,
Shrilling exhales wheeze.
Cabrona
Falls me
Down to
My knees.
The nicotine cracks
My will.
My composure
Spills.
I want
This.
I must
Have this.
I sink
Into
The brink
Of madness....

Carbon CopyAm I the one you dream of,
Am I the one you prayed silently for with closed eyes at your bed side,
Am I the one you magnificently created of her figment,
Deeply rooted and knotted in that dark part of your past.
Do you think...

The Carbon Children Melt me into amethyst;
where deep purple skies fade to rose quartz,
as the sun begins his labors.
They are the earth womb;
air, fire and water; as am I;
energy in a tiny package;
wrapped by Nature’s hand.
Carbon crystals meld within the womb;
sister...

Carbon Dioxide BluesHe said I was oxygen
That he couldn’t live without
He said I was the ideal
That he wanted for a wife
He flattered and he praised me
Made me feel like a princess
No one else came even close
His desires he’d thus confess
He’d waited for me for years
Desperate...

Footprints In CarbonThe village was nestled on the coast by itself, as if God had put it there all alone, on a shelf.
The residents were isolated just like the town, and universally uninformed from the top on down.
It was no longer a lavish seaside resort, gone were...

The Carbon SwordBehold me as I wield the carbon sword,
cleaving reality as if a fraying cord.
In noble valor I make my timeless stand,
against the demons spawned by my own hand....

We R Elements of Carboncircular bands of pathetic
misfortunes broken
by the empowering
stretch of mighty
hands
clandestine candles of hope
reverse into an open
nest of trust
we are elements of carbon
hydrogen and sulphur......

Germinating Carbon-Based StrifeI
the yellow cries of creation burn in the subjective sun
staring rays of perdition’s psalm acidic as sinful balm
sear the fear of tomorrow’s bones into fleshly operas
observing with scientific malice the malady of romance
…the ghosts dance on quantum strings
…stars fall into amnesia vast as innocence

Interesting Is a Carbon WheelAn elephant can slide quite easily into an egg box but a piccolo finds it very difficult to get in and out of bed. Missionary meals making marvellous moonbeams. And the little turtle sunbathes near the fires. At radiating eclipses beans can jump with noodles....
