Fish
The fish that rots
begins in the head
health of fish
its imminent death
tail not the barometer
tail, not the indicator
but the  head that leads...

Fallen
And I will tattoo my lost love
to my skin like petals in a river
	trapped in the rapids for a time
	then released when the last blush
	rots to mud...

A Cold, Relentless Love
soon it will be spring
a time when night bends into day 
and the snow  
rots to dark water 
like a memory
chasing its shadow
into the violent mouth 
of the cold
wide 
ocean

Guns kill
Guts spill

Blood flows
Man knows

Gore rots
Shot dots

Dark skin
Dice spin

Who dies
What lies

Who lives
who gives

What death
Last breath

What fun

Water
Water
      Written in class
      By complete mistake.

Waves swallow me whole,
Slowly suffocating I parish,
Under the sea is where my corpse rots,
Slowly decaying as predators nip at my flesh....

The Villain's Fruit
Looks good
Tastes sweet
But rots in the belly

Turns to poison in the veins
Travels to the heart
     Corrupts it
     Hardens it
Dead inside

Need a transfusion
Type Christ-positive required...

Master Plan
a master plan without a plot
feelings displayed, quickly dropped
not connected like domino dots
forming a thick and grievous clot
I said I do but you cannot
as inside it spoils and rots
it was always a long shot...

Isolated
disembodied from the crowd
they locked me from their thoughts
imprisoned in my psychic wall
i lost my mind within it all
and when left, my soul, it rots
never again will they be found

i am alone, and help cannot be found...

The Girl Who Stopped Loving the Moon
I no longer await you,
nor I mark my calendar.

No more staring,
no more howling,
no more skinny dipping
in your light.

I peeled off the shine.

You are just a bitter opium
that rots in my veins
and gives me headaches....

Healing Energy
The soot within rots and stagnates
And all I have become 
Is a garbage of putrid avoidance,
Vague as muddy clay---a leak from sewers
Unless  cleansed by  rising heart 
Free from negative energy.

After the Act
My mind is like a nice set of
teeth.
It crushes things up, and
makes them digestible.
Too much sugar, like you,
sweetie
rots my brain.
I better stick with these dull
grey blocks of knowledge,
and brush daily with some
good pornos...

Ensenada '00
Mexican beaches of brown
and endless tequila shots.
We are the young expanding life,
while the dead dog rots.
My pockets are bloated with cash,
as the infested streets heave.
I jump aboard the grey tin bus,
glad I had choice to leave...

Mothers day

She gave birth 
from a smoke filled womb
the umbilical chord around my neck
eternity choked
tossed into a world
of loneliness
discarded garbage
my mind slowly rots away
bitterness ebbs and flows
in my garden of flowers...
