Pin Pricks
My hands hold the bars
I’m a good prisoner
Hoping to be let out for good behaviour
Head down
not meeting my jailers eyes
At night when the lights are off
When the moon is in the sky
When men cough and moan in the darkness
I reach through the bars towards the stars
My finger traces that golden orb
My mind explores pin

My Loudest Feelings
My Loudest Feelings
It pricks my pores
Makes me red like glowing charcoal.
My tear glands could not stop reminding me of its nature.
That feeling I thought as much
Love hit my heart
Its prints left stitches.
I could not bear it
Each time my heart beat of jealousy.
The only cold I felt
Where the breeze of my breath.
Like an African woman

Slippery Pricks and Rotting Roses
The shrinking violet has made her way back.
for another round of acidic attacks.
Blaming the sun for her shadows,
the mirror for all her cracks.
The mad queen of monkeys,
leading a gnashing troop.
Tossing stones and madly lashing
While slinging vicious verbal poop....
Driving all the flavor from the soup,
There she sits atop self-pity hill.

Pain Pricks the Heart of the Beholder
Don’t denounce me when I weep
Soaking blows right, left and centre
From angled arrows that keep
Galumphing near my fort vying to enter
The crib the moon loathes
Which the venom sunshine can’t sear
While sadness bothers
To rain pain and fear with the clear
Motive to abuse my space and stretch the surface
On which horror refuses to die or lie
As it

The Flag of Pricks
The sky has lost its image of beauty,
And the fading air is all you can see
When the soul of your spirit rest in cave
Inside the furnace of terrorism
How will you ascend in this graceless base?
With this bile intoxicating your heart
Rotten mind; a pollutant like strong haze,
Bringing you 'tween the bridge of death and

Pressing, Against the Pricks
Dotting about land mines eyes half closed
Asleep she seems while walking unto this edge....
Repulsion taking hold fey flags his juggernaut: jostling
King snakes slithering past these planetoids searching for her lizard queen ?
Demimonde's state of this union's address devil-may-care; and that he does dear dusty
Acheron your systematic servitude touch'stone's, tour de force: stigmatic ellipses be

Pin Pricks of Light
The heavens, speckled with small dots of light
Sometimes shooting as they pass through the night
Many pin pricks scattered throughout the sky
Allows spent prowess to pound way up high
I delight in the show of sparkling stars
All blasts a form shining beyond, so far
Master of the lights is the humble moon
Covers its fair share of beams like

To strive to live in present sac,
Waiting for future's pack,
But my past me pricks me.

Love and Pricks
I Love the elderly
so full of history
I love my generation
who kept me a mystery
I love the children
who's future, now bright
for I have died for them
to capture the light
for i understand
pain more than ever
once I released it
the anger got better
as it went away from the people
and into my music
without a single
reason to prove it
without a reason
to
