Give me a break.
Stand there smiling, like it’s easy
As I bash my head against the wall
And the world is caving in on me
Through the blood in my eyes it’s hard to see
How much farther can...

I'm flattered by Nina but need to take her to the cleaners,
and splat her inbetweeners with fluid from wieners.

you were all conceived in a seat in the...

The transition of love to hate, can take years or less
Never, ever could or would one have anticipated in their dream state

gravity
homeboy got capped in the knee
out in the streets 
let the truth be told
where as years ago
with Grandmaster P
he was born in the gutter 
his momma was a whore
selling her junk in the trunk
in back...

Something had just occurred to me 
As I sat and talked to Cleetus Magee
He was only joking that day
I took it serious in an odd, pathetic way
He suggested I open my own place for people...

It’s odd how people who think they are funny, 
Confuse humor with offensive ridicule.
Saying hurtful, empty and shallow comments,
Pretending it’s all April fool.

Not standing behind what they say, or
Taking the blame for the hurt they...

I am trying to be patient
Determined to be fair
But she's been over an hour in the bathroom
What is she doing in there .

She said I must be ready 
So I wear my suit and tie
But...

On a dark and stormy morning, 
You left me all alone. 
I thought you were only joking,

A Guilty Pair
Under the Stars and moon so bright
Two lovers lie in the field at night

What’s that noise?
It can’t be boys

For I am here
Of all the things we feared the most

The Monster

FEBRUARY 5 
He destroyed her
He killed all that was good
Burnt her hopes and dreams
Took her broken heart
and stomped on it
He raped her soul
and filled it with hate
He...

Lunging forward a stab to the heart,
vitriol hurled at an unsuspecting soul.
A sarcastic word or comment, thrown in jest,
tearing flesh, leaving a gaping hole.

the hurt child

His father had been away for a long time
Although their mother had divorced
her husband he visited his children
his young son was excited 
he could hardly remember his dad
when he came smelling of beer,

BAD RESOLUTIONS 

Be good, be kind, help those along the way.
All good resolutions I’ve made on New Year’s Day.
Don’t do this, don’t do that, do know right from wrong.
Resolutions I have never kept for long.

It's Saturday eve
we're drinking in town
Only joking, I wish.
We're still in lockdown.

Any inkling of romance
on pause until further notice.
Making plans for the future

We were all on fast forward
and the world blew a fuse.
Burying...

Please may I be abrupt, it's the nature of this beast
Especially with ones wine, it's the fuelling of thine feast

Well, I'm a man, so let me make my start
I'm prone to erupt, no anger, but...

the fragrance of a rose, the flower of my devotion
devoted the heat like the sun rays on the ocean

from the very beginning, from the...

You have to really see it 
then you'll truly believe 
there before your very eyes 
it's hidden up your sleeve 

Of course I'm only joking 
that's not where it is 
just look over the horizon...
