A Haunting in Alabama

...I found you. 

From the floorboards, to the trunk, to the stairs, to my table, you shambled. Howling and bleeding. 


God, I had wanted so badly to recognize you.
To have some common ground wit...

Stormy Fray

...
My Child, 
I Need You to Realize, When the Storms of Life Threaten Security
Like A Predator Stalking it's Prey

But Storms are not Here to Stay
When Peace is...

Diplomatic Dancing

...I danced with an Alien
At the Diplomat’s Summer Ball
Though I’m not sure Dancing
Correctly described it at all.
A dancing partner with six feet
And thirty six naked toes?
Trying to be graceful ...

Premium MemberI Wandered Lonely As a Rose

...



I wandered lonely as a rose by Autumn's gate
as I lay there in still repose, petals strewn       
I fell apart like dessert moon; 

The scent that once perfumed my reign 
were mellowed b...

Premium MemberNew Mercies

...I’m out here in the wilderness.
I’m baffled, Lord, and in distress.
My heart is downcast, troubled, gray:
O Lord, be merciful today.

At times like these, I’m far from you
That’s how I feel, th...

She Broke Him

...After breaking his heart,
His love turned into hate,
All that is left is her scent,
He let go of her sweetheart,
Though it's so hard to forget,
A love story came to naught.

Trembling with alo...

One Foot Out of the Boat

...ONE FOOT OUT OF THE BOAT

He surprises himself once more; swallowing prescribed prescription freedom,
From who knows bes...

The Sky Was Blue That Day

...That day was my last
It took my soul away
The sky turned dark
I was led astray.
The sky rained ashes and 
tears

I wiped my tears
as they ran down
my face. I spoke
the language of the
dead...

The Bridie Price of An Unfortunate Lady

...THE BRIDIE PRICE OF AN UNFORTUNATE LADY
Quietly her love fathomed
The glittering incisor,
A puissant one unravished,
An aesthete affirmed.
Wide in comb of friend
A pilot stood aghast
In rapt m...

A Hymn To the Forgotten

...Among thou wistful bask of I, belies a heart of breaking, 
A mist within a mask of lies, corrupting my soul of eternal aching.
Shrouded upon my throne, used to be such exult,
A mistress in green, ...

Supervention-Impunity Falls To I

...Unleash your reign to only I, truth be wary of accost,
Many tyrants ripple kindly, though chilled I enflame the frost,
High Thronehood, I shatter thou, endorse the Chain of fallen veins, 
Gentle g...

The Throne

...When in my heart I feel a shade 
And I see that darkness blend into a grey.
When a soul corrupts from spite and hate 
When all they are is led astray, one kind act.
May be our tomorrow's sorrows ...

The Black Quandary

...The black curls, oh the resemblance to the night

clings to her forehead, distraught,

like the spider's web shambled,

crooked,   rubbing the forehead like the harsh waters

Saints and Sinners

...she woke me—
	I sprawled, numb, eyeing her ass
		sashay off to pee
then I sort of felt crass,
I mean, what was her name?

that’s when bells tolled
church herding its fold,
