IncarnateBoyhood days of bees, butterflies and songs,
The protective range of my mother’s voice,
A sweet, happy place where a boy belongs.
A conch shell, a snow-white beach, and a choice.
“Leave it”, she said, “this seashell’s...

Demon of AddictionMy voice is filled with broken tremors,
As I describe the layers of my pain.
Each breath blows out the bitter emptiness,
And I hear myself going insane.
I interact with demons I battle,
And I force...

drugsthey're funny,
but not always
like that.
they're laughing,
but sometimes

in the skies.
they're here,
but really-
they're gone....

To erase all of my biggest losses and old regrets.

The Devil in the WindSometimes I fall, and it seems easier just to fall than to climb back up.
Because when I fall, I feel free.
I feel as though I can fly, but I can't.
I simply fall...

LAUGHTERToday I broke out in laughter
Two beers
Were enough to heal my spirit
I am an addict but for medicine
A drug user but for sanity
You have no idea
How down I am here
Always and...
