Long Nosebleed Poems

There are times, doing something, you think is good, can simply back fire, on you.
And I took Dragon to watch a movie of The Grand Canyon, yes, flying thru.
Just to be safe, we sat in...

She doesn’t remember what
she loved about me
so i hold her in my elbows
as if she needed someone to save her
and i hate that i’ve always believed in
things i couldn’t touch

tree house ladder i climbed you

Meeting a princess

It was, according to the old, the coldest winter
any could remember, the wise said it was because 
the war had disturbed the weather pattern
One day, it snowed, then it got mild, after that...

Thanks for grabbing me a "RED BULL,"
because I don't like the way your slams taste.
The creativity in my head stays full,
and your poetry is such a waste!

"PLAYBOY," you got that right,
at least that's what your...

I'm so tired. 
The machinery of my body feels like it's failing,
I'm grasping at the air praying there's something to hang onto, 
I'm gritting my teeth and squinting my eyes in the struggle to see...

I established a rapport 
with the Sacred Cow
and it stepped all over my toes
the oil of anointment in my crankcase
I was limping worthy of an asterisk
an army of monks couldn't keep me pure
laughing all the...

Once upon a time, there was a world, a one-derful world. Before they
needed explanations that became their defining moment. Contrasts,
and differences that tore them apart. Heaven and Hell are constants,
from their privileged beginnings; they are...

As I lie here dying
Beneath pieces strewn
Bits of broken glass
My ending life spilling out
A scene of black and white and red

Through lighted prisms
An offer given
A different view
Newer angles now reveal
That, which once was veiled and...

Within the confines of my nearest Zoo,
There’s a place that’s off limits – it’s not for you.
It’s where the animals go for therapy,
As animals have issues just like you and me.

It’s here where all the...

waltz blazing sirens from shores of the frosted tomorrow
just look around and behold everything that makes our souls distant
l’existence est ailleurs! my negatively dear Clementine
in this omnipotent Babylon of boredom whoredom
where our shapes slowly turn...

It feels like I got drafted to a war.
A war I didn't even know started.
Maybe I was oblivious.
Maybe there's an excuse,
Then again maybe not.
But I know I feel tense.
I feel beyond tense. 
Nowhere is home...

it's just the guilt of being me
that makes the light too dim to see,
that stands in the way of being free.
that little spot that disagrees
and brings me down on my knees
is the same spot that...

Whilst arching in a turtle-neck
A breeze blew softly by,
Too young to have a nosebleed,
Instead I made it cry.

‘What have you seen, where do you go?’
I wondered up aloud.
‘I’m off to see the Nondle,’
It answered like...

Comes to mind
the first time
my nose started 
bleeding
all of a sudden
fearing it wouldn’t
stop
and I would die
locked in a box
underground
alive
panic voiced 
on face and lips
its pallor
the unspeakable 
terror felt inside.
My father reassuring 
with a smile
and tenderness

The summer sea sky has traveled inland
and the rolling of the Spanish hills make me hungry for adventure 

I am feet on the dashboard, a mouth full of salt water,
a nosebleed that is somehow romantic...

In my infinite wisdom 
 I tell you this thing,
In this here my kingdom
Will the pendulum swing;

One minute the Kurds
So cute in their garb,
The other the Turks
With their venomous barb.

The former I’m told
Are people to...

Watching the futbol match between the national teams of Ireland and Slovakia.  I managed to purchase a cheap seat and I am sitting up in the nosebleed section.  We drank and cheered as...
