Faux Things
It was 3AM.
I had too many cups of rum and I wanted to hear your voice
before I fell into a drunken stupor.
You didn't answer my two FaceTime calls or texts so
it got my mind...

Inside a '72 Econoline
Inside A ‘72 Econoline
This old green van has a musty smell to it,
Like a pair of sweaty rancid socks
Mixed with half-empty beer cans.
It’s a banged up thing, this ’72 Econoline.
Scratches and mysterious dents
Cover its...

Like a present long waited for that is sealed
I’m in and out of love and don’t know how to feel
Although my love life has come to a yield
Now is the time to harvest the fresh...

Californy
Jack was sitting poker faced
With bullets backed by bitches.
Neal hunched at the wheel
Puttin everyone in stitches.
He was braggin 'bout
This nurse he'd screwed,
While drivin through Nebraska.
Said that when she came,
She honked...

Car With No Reverse - 1975 Chevy Monza 4 Speed Manual
I rolled like Caesar down the boulevard the day I came to town.
My triumph was impromptu and abrupt.
I parked my Chevy by the curbside on a gentle downhill slope
In hope there’d be no need for...

Scoundrels of the Senate
Again these men comes to mind,
Paid to say yes and nay,
Lame duck,
Canker, queer rapscallion minds
Incorrigible,
Political impostors detached from the humdrum of street cries
Maggots in honor
Damp squib temples of legislators
Dishonorable honorable,
Rotund circles of rascals
Fellows fit for...

Let's have a bull session-lesson !
Take a gander around, and tell the guy with the cheaters
I'll give him an...

Some Bootleg Beer
Some bootleg beer that only came in kegs
during the twenties made me think of you.
Like an old IPA, filled with hops, that I
just had to drink because it was all there
was.
Some intellectual fever.

All That Befriends Is a Gift
A new friend is a gift one can keep or reject,
how you feel doesn’t matter, a gift is a gift!

I confess my discontent
I was stifled
In restraints by suggestions and pretty things
The ones bought in the streets for a stroke of ego
The ones bought by the vulnerable and naive
I bought the bootleg...

Purple and red Crowley Ridge agates catch...

Tick Tock
i look at the walls around me
bootleg-moonshine shadows dancing
a waltz atop nighttide's stage
yet i am empty of my own emotion
alone, covered in reflections of us.
i still smell your scent
linger in every deep breath
within this humid...

Void
There’s nothing inside
But a deep, deep hole
It’s all black and white
Color’s just a fairy tale
Does anything really matter?
Does anyone really care?
Purpose is just a word
In a language I can’t speak
Satiate yourself
With fables and lies
Put your...

Another Day In Paradox
I look about this merry gloom
Thoughtless, fat and slim.
Remembering but half a tune
I'd lost my will to win.
'Give up thy Eric Idle, son.'
I heard a whisper mutter.
And sitting up inside my head
Knew this was not...

Hellos Than Goodbyes
In a strange sort of way.
I've always wished that we've gotten together.
Be it a dream; that we would speak in hellos than good byes.
True love by means of evolvement.
Maybe I shouldn't think of you...

Armed With Wings of Cypress Wine
~ A Monorhymed Fantasy ~
A virgin maid of twenty-nine
angelic face, most benign
Sought the life of the front lines
her upbringing undermined...
Two devilish, slack-jawed canines

Antagonistic, their bloodlines

i remember simple moments
long ago when life
consisted of cruising down Dump Raod,
a car load of friends
and a case of bootleg beer.

that never reached the height...
