Emo Appetizer

...Ill burn you,

To the ground.

Let the vapors gasp in empty airs around you,
And suck into themselves until nothing is left to drip across these acres of empty soil.

I'll tear you from the ve...

Of Dampness and Breath

...Of Dampness & Breath

Alone with his idiosyncrasies
shuffling along 
the pointillist perfection
of tedious shore,
an old man
luminous by moonlight’s 
slight lemon glow
swirls ...

Misled

...Nor thunder in the dark, nor flash, nor fire,
nor other pyrotechnics that, they say,
accompany all such events, nor dire
phantasmagorias, going astray

in the unconsciousness. I’m all alone
dow...

Tahiti Defined By Tahiti

...The plague knew my infinite hulk 
in 1769, crept through the Polynesian crystal
onto my outstretched archipelago
black sands and white sands and volcanoes
speaking the purple language,

Yesterday's Gristmill

...Sometimes, I can hear that happy, bubbly brook
bouncing over stones and under the wheel…that giant wheel.
It would drone along groaning a wooden song;
each night luring the brassy sun ever toward ...

Orphaned

   Electric purple owls with golden eyes
loom about, transfixed and silent.
         No going back.

Bloody rays of a setting ...

...My fragrances have guided you to my colourful winter gardenia 
A cobbled pathway will walk you to a vanilla mushroom house 
Atop with a fireman's helmet of red riding hood flower wine
Bee loved su...

The Little Room Within

...‘Twas damp, cold and lonely - not much bigger than a closet.
But the little room within me is mine.
It has no niceties such as a bed chamber but
To one side – when pressed upon hard enough –
My walls...

The Thing That Went

...The thing that went...

The first thing that went wrong - 
was the buzzing in my left ear,
the one not buried in the pillow,
the one that was open to the world.

The second thing that went wro...

Music Festival

...Music Festival

Boys in glitter and gold quote the doors
With dreadlocks they beatbox drum and base
A girl balances my friend with her legs
He lies planked above her face

Flags ripple with colour

Cogwheel Ballet

...Cogwheel Ballet
            by Odin Roark

Hot
Humid
New York summer
Industrial commerce 24/7

Textile scents of humid wool
Acerbic edge of chemical dyes
Permeating wood and air
Thick oily lubricants...

White Sails, Dark Souls

...In the hold tears are shackled
White eyes stare dark corners
Bare breasts hang limpid
Humanity dowsed in sewage

The slaver pitches, rolls
Each wave a fathom from home
Each trough a deeper des...

Love Thou Past

...Sitting on here ye porch
Reflecting on what were thee past
A terrible and horrifying future was in thou forecast
Thou hast laid a future in which we live
Thou peers say revenge is in progress

Brisk but sweet I shall be and I shall shine so proud.
I shall move the winds and ye shall hear what...
