Freed from my mind
I escape it
I end time
I think it
I think nothing of it
I believe in you

I think of it
I think nothing
I know you are something
How is it found 
Where...

I’m an addict
In recovery 
And I’m kind of glad of it
I don’t want to be
Just another G
Out promoting weed
While I’m planting the idea 
Like a G-13 seed

Read between the lines
And you’ll find I’m blinded
Beating up...

 Never a kind word, all seemed very bad-
Born a true and strong athlete to behold
 Into slavery...

Cold nights and tree lights taught him to forget home.
He’s mellow tonight though, no telling what goes unknown.
He packs light and steps heavy and taps his fading flashlight and I bet he’s a lefty.

My days in the streets of despair took me from scanty shanties
Intermittent through dreams drinking the syllables of books
Cast before my eyes, I was at the bottom of nooks and crannies
Hiding in barren valleys of...

I have set in this corner too long it’s true
My hand rails are polished to a light umber hue
My spines have come loose, but they just need some glue
And my cushions have faded from a...

My eyes linger instantly when you enter my world
They light up bright, like a new lightbulb has been replaced
I blink my heavy eyelashes, and you slowly dissolve into my uncertainty
Your look tortures every fiber of...

She led the Autumn Jive with Little Boy Blue,

If it does not bite you at the end of each breath,
Then I will start again and again
And I will rewrite it, all over again.


Do it all again; pretend we are friends.

Exfoliated Eddie is an eagle eyed spy
He likes hot Hoxton coffee with his cold Shepherd’s Pie
Crazy for a Sheffield lass, a Steel City shrew
Her conversation’s retro but her attitude is new.

Flopping like a flapper in...

I am ready to rock steady with a brother.
He will be jealous of my healers, which are schemas.
We are such a beautiful couple.
Our cup of love is bubbles as we bath together.
This is phantasm.

I was yours before clouds formed
across morning sky, when panes get misty,
and finger tips rosy with blood.

I was yours before the sunrise, 
you and me beneath the shade of apple trees,
 lustful intents dripped from...

A love with no true compromise pretends
Live for anything you justify to defend
Days drift away, so many you may forget
Looking at history you saved as I spent

Know all those times I didn't say what I...

I thought we were,
The perfect pair.
  I thought we had it,
Special and rare.

  I remember our talks,
Going to the bay.
  Side by side,
We always met halfway.

  If you leave, I surely
Would...

MY FRIEND JO

Friendship isn’t easy,
It doesn’t just happen;
It takes care and commitment
and a willingness to give of yourself
freely, without hesitation.

There are friends you’ve had since childhood
who know all about you,  and you them.
You get...

Fever
Like Steam Distillation
My Temperature Is Peaking
Careful Darling
Don't Elevate Me Too Quickly
For My Goods Might Spoil
This Is Precious Cargo

You Know The Radiance Of My Quenched Hair
Darling You Know

In all the happy times, there we were,
Your laughing eyes and honey sweet smile
A constant as we travelled through life.
But the sun can’t always shine above,
And ghosts thrive in the stormy nights.
Still, though my heart...

Mrs. Cuntley, 
a widow is my landlady.
Chubby and kinda motherly 
she cooks for me. 

We drink on the weekends, 
and the hot stuff begins.
In a see-through gown 
she comes into my room and goes down.

He played a rock steady beat,
That rumbled as a train on its tracks.
The echoes rebellious stark.
Moving the nicotine in the chest.
Siphoning joy from the very air.
Distilling it down to a sound.

He played a rock steady...
