Take the skin off my back turn me into a rug

Treat me as everybody else, something to walk over

Tell me i am important and original to get what you want

Tear the teeth from my skull, cauterize my gums together

Nothing I say every seem important anyway

Sew...

Looking back, one thing comes clean-glass clear
you were always there for me subduing every fear.

I tried to do my duty, be a husband strong and steady
but you came through when I was only half ready.

So oft you had to be not just a mom but...

How lovely, isn't
It, to have an 'off' switch, shotty wiring
And all,
And a presence lined up to ****?

They are always there
To cauterize the wounds of emotional castration
Without desire to examine
The blood pattern forensics,
Chalking the splatter up
To an affinity towards Jackson Polluck. 

Tears are to the meek
As...

Film Noir

By the lampost at night
with the pale moon shining bright
but obscured by the fog
I saw her in the harbor
standing where my boat lay moored
but she knew that
her azure eyes beckoned me to come
smoke from a cigarette in her hand
trailing upward and blendng with mist
and...

My teacher died.
   
   His lungs failed him.

He taught me that the lungs
harbor grief.

   His lungs are gone.
My grief has only just arrived.


   He used his lungs to power
his Power.
To power his speech.
His lungs let him connect
to...

SHOCKING!!!!!!!! WHAT? THAT?


Bad taste?
They know not what is at stake
They do as they please
Then later beg for forgiveness
A right sin
And a dismal business

Nothing is shocking anymore
To thump each other
They go to the extremes of bad taste
The exotic of the past
Is now the mundane of today

To...

No torrid steel rod will cauterize my wounds
I cannot lick these festering gashes clean
Your sharp-bladed tongue has bitten deeply 
fangs plunged with each vile cursed scene

No mere prick or scratch did you inflict
as thorns draw drops from a finger laid bare
You severed our dangling cord...

To soothe the cornered inferno
Consuming a sanctuary abandoned
Spider's silk like snow kissed ground
Walls caressed by a nurturing moss,
A mausoleum of birth
The detached ruins we carry
A firefighter's hose spouts curses
To cauterize a ghastly flame
The fire fights itself separately
So the lever pullers on the dispatch
Call into the...

Save me from this charged mound,
swirling in mundane cynicism's break
where styrofoam vultures circle overhead
and snap their beaks with convoluted grace.
Pull my flesh back,
and cauterize my need to wonder;
I know there's nothing out there anyway-
except the swallow of disenfranchised freedom
and innovated misunderstandings.
Replace these organs with the...

I've built with sand.
I've made a life without a proper plan,
and you kicked before I hardened it.
How do I supply demand?

A ship unmanned.
This is the moment that I sank within.
It's when my life became your operand.
Your addition for a firing pin.

I caught my hand.
It was...

Thought the War was Over 
By Franklin Price
10/17/2015

Thought the war was over 
When I returned from Cam Ranh Bay
Skin cancer popped it's ugly head
And still is in the way

Getting a little tired of
Having all the fun
Burning, freezing, cutting
Since one nine seven one

Freezing liquid nitrogen
Pre-cancers it...

Love with all my heart
every nuance I have left
'till it stops working

Love with all my heart
broken echoes of lost time
to be upon us

Love with all my heart
half within myself remains
cauterize blood drips

Love with all my heart
and in death I shall forget
to awake your eyes...

The secrets whispered through my ears 
The lies witnessed by my eyes 
I hide them all inside 
Now no one will ever know 
What's behind my smile disguise 


Its the things I hide inside 
The things that I'll despise 
They're darker and stronger daily 
Always...
