What happened?

I bolt awake, the heat of the fire 
Still burning in my brain.

Realize it’s black and bloody all at once
Cracked,...

Neither sunlit consciousness nor death's aegis,
Will come between our union tonight,
For I can no longer deny myself the happiness they promise,
Every creak in the floorboard and fluttering of my heart is talking,
Urging me...

I went to bed early.
Noting the summer lightning
through closed eyelids 
little did I know
how my life was about to change.
The heavy clock was not even 
located over my bed....

My first was beside the outside loo,
'cos my wife said not indoors thank you.

Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night
In my ramshackle torn straw old bed 
The mice are chewing my toes
And the bedbugs bite  
Elephants dancing in my head
I think to myself
"It's not...

On my bed is a colorful quilt,
Not hand-made – it came from the store.
Each morning I lay it out, always the same;
It’s so simple, it’s not like a chore.

It has to be facing the way...

Sex to Speech

I copy your moves 
with pen and paper, 
living lucky to be inside you
inside my mind I dream of reality,

With bloodshot eyes and a pounding head
Lastnights regret's still in my bed
I put a new notch on my headboard...again

The itch of you, deeply, 
beneath, surface, rises quickly, 
to scratch, The anxiety of it all, 
trembles my bones, Like an 
acid Tripp, gone wild, not Jerry 
Springer, It's craziness is much 
more, as it...

Dishonorable plastic discharge
gouge a crater debt 
of predatory lending regret

Dead faces on printed paper
exercise still
their executive will

Oppressive weight
from the mausoleum stacks
of dollar bills

Folded temptation — 
some crispy new,
others old and faded
Both remain in
C-4 spend circulation

Man has concocted earth bending bombs

Don't touch me
Not in the sense 
I want nothing to do with you
But don't touch me
Cause I'm feeling some kinda way about you.

Get away from me,
You're giving...

A mirror to my future, a reflection to my desire, 
Wrapped up in ribbons, red blazes of erotic fire.

Tied to the headboard, surrender, I can...

Purple violets promoting purple woodland hues,
