Long Hellhounds Poems

In most of my verse, my simple aim
is just sorta to enter tame.
Then, once inside ~
go completely hog wild ~
showing no reserve,
showing absolutely no shame.

"What do you think of my pup?",
I asked a cop as...

"The Depths"

From the depths
silence.

Where 
are the voices
of other 
women?

In that other place,
the monsters violate, 
they take and take
bloody all, what they want

the dreams of women
are torched, murdered, 
next to them, 
the sweet dreams of lives...

Daddy's specter plectrums mercilessly
Fraying my nerves raw
with oxidized guitar strings.
my thoughts relentlessly hemorrhage
onto clay vinyl grooves
s p i n n i n g
endless nights
of
suffocation.

a midnight jazz wail
lacerates
the void of your absence.
notes gnaw through bone marrow
ravenous...

The candles burn their prayers to the heavens 
from the cold walls of the house of God
The rain pounds at the earth beyond 
and someone runs upon the mud

His rosary swings 
in his desperate hands
His...

In a house of cards
in torrential rain
social media overload
floods my brain.
Wave after wave 
you feel the pain.
Heading down the hallway
into the dark,
the imminent 
and dissonant 
hellhounds bark.

From the penthouse of hypocrisy 
I jumped onto a...

Howl of a sorrows nigh,
The watchful Shepherd herds behind the preys eyes
Darkness settles as the shepherd guards, spreading his light
They swoop like vultures.. tearing through the blood moon upon sky
Shepherd of Wolf clothing torches their...

Sam Adams 
was a paranormal researcher 
he was searching 
for mystical creatures 
that he was sure 
still existed somewhere. 
 
The banshees, bigfoot, the centaurs, 
the demons, the dragons, the giants, 
the hellhounds, the minitours,...

why do you keep coming back

Sometime after I stopped writing, I began again.
And the time after that.
After that as well.
I threw the words away, but

back.
Like loyal puppies.
Or hellhounds.
I would curse the demon
that took possession...

He smashes his mirror so he cant see
He sits alone and howls at the distant moon,
Transformation is coming soon
Waiting on a naive morsel to pass his way,
He now must...

  the buried to the entrance gate are led,
in the underworld to Charon below

Upon your lips, your eyes, a coin...

Dog, a man's bestfriend.
Hellhounds, they are.
My spirit, you cannot bend.
I will not be your burning star.

Chaos, wicked and sneering.
The physical and the unseen world.
For everything is fearing.
Everything so twisted and whirled. 

3am is their favorite...

DEMETER CRIES

Sun in center and white wings around
The hundred florae in one stem, cheated; 
My daughter never knew t’was him.
The fragrance was sweet but toxic.
His chariot stood with black steed.
And he took her away to...

The Feeling of Getting Lost in a Book
When I read a book,
I lose sense of what's around,
with unimaginable creatures,
like multicolored baboons or hellhounds.

When I read a book,
I leave everything behind,
To enter the story,
With the power...

Be sure your deeds do not awaken,
The Morrigan and her hellhounds,
As then, your soul is forsaken!

So deep within conscious abyss,
Where the secrets of dreams reside,
Devoid of innocent remiss.

Avenging huntress comes alive,
With straining hounds that call...

Dewdrops, on me, like diamond dust, roll
Do they know that I shiver in my soul?
I feel the earth beneath me pull my roots.
Are hellhounds assigned to destroy my fruits?

In me, no birds and beasts find...
