Infernal Flame
Beneath the gothic arches, his gaze held fast,
In candlelit chambers, their desires impure,
Whispers like velvet, dark seduction amassed,
Her raven hair beckons, with sinful allure,
Blood-red roses fell, memories of lovers past,
In shadowed embrace, their dark...

Sanguinary Kissensnared by such mere prosaic prattle
drawn eye to eye by an enigmatic placid damsel
cryptic conundrum swathed in the shroud
materialized the ballroom corner in a cloud
her gaze unblinking and unwavering no restraints

I Saw an Angel Near the Fence
To be fair, it was the end
of a long day and a large drink
we called Screaming Jesus
nothing more than watered-down
vodka, grape soda, and a stalk of rosemary.
We were dug in near a sandcastle
at Ormand Beach....

She didn’t want the lunch I prepared
said she was on a diet, unhappy with her body
she is half of a watermelon
to keep my company
I wish she hadn’t stopped talking about

Lucy, I'm home!Her name is, Lucy
Her twin is Ricky
He is green with Envy
Because I’ve left him behind

All I could do was sigh
She purrs like...

HeartbeatsCan you hear my heartbeat
To the sound of little feet
Running around me meowing
Like a cat or barking
Can you hear my jilted fears
Pealed away like green pear skins
Rebuked by real and imagined sins

The Empty Rooman empty room
and I stare at the ceiling
blank eyes and a blanker slate,
my poker face
arms spread over my head
all I can see are
whirring blades blurring into
creamy paint and
the small cracks in between
the shadows in...

Guns and RosesFinger on the trigger
Hands on the roses
Hands on the gun spewing
Deathly lead
Blood spilled and splashed
In crimson
The life is gone.

Death provoking
Death calming
A rosette of death and
Peace in a duet.

It's raining.
Well, it was at least.
I'm just a nobody in their parents' garage witnessing the aftermath.

TOUGH CHOICE: LOVE OR HOPE?For I have to choose
A hopeful new beginning
Or love on the cruise

Left shattered, unable to cope.
A rose at a time I'm offered...
