The Buzz Poem


I never had a man teach me to shave, 
So, I am left with cuts from single blades
Stringing along my life 
In an effort to make sense of my misery
Mom, dear mom, I forget your warm love
And I miss the frank thoughts of random strangers
preaching together their life, as if they had the answers to a pop quiz
But question those beliefs, 
Discover the answer of Christ and galaxies
For when I settled on the fact that one plus one really equaled two
I divided my gold and was down to negative one
And while we’re at it, fuck your fear, your indecisive thoughts
those grave robbers, gold diggers, and that pick pocketer
Make your mark, for you are clever
You influenced a weak man to write
to love, to speak
So raise your cheeks, and find pride in love and hope.

My despondent thoughts linger and have carried me through hollow trees
and frighten that I am from fluorescent lights hiding your eyes
as your lip form tears stroke your face, while he bashes your head
and an unforgettable forgetting father then takes his place in bed
as I sing ‘blood is thick and water is refreshing’
trying to run from a shameful staircase
to end up to this hollow tree, this giving tree
for me to burden her once more
just to again turn my back from lost faith
since she can’t provide anymore
So, I’m beat and walking
shutting my eyes, going back to a place where I loved her
for I am lost and have abandon my mother
I have lost love; my mother

Love Poem


Stocks of burning fire pressed upon my face
Melting this heart
Creating a feeling for just a moment in time
that deflates Earth
Becoming as significant as a billion year old star
That I gaze on with tar clouding my lungs
Making my body steam like a spicy nut
Falling in love with baby goats
And quite frankly the thought of you pulses my tongue
To reach for your breasts
Then your tongue speaks of composed sentences
That were rehearsed from a past lover
That makes me deny a beautiful heart beat  
So, my lover, find yourself through me and be cared for
Because this pain of stone placed in my chest has been lifted
With your isolated touch
I have fallen for you dear
And I’ll keep it to myself
For the same instant you came
You shall disappear to find new

My Day


His heart is an anchor sinking this ship to the ground
there is no visor to block the sun, so throw up your treasure
He’s fucked, swimming in a pond, she knows it
She’s my captain, and she fondles her broken boards
She’s dying, this anchor is wearing her down
My brothers, you are in shambles, rotting pieces of wood
And I only can reminisce when this ship set sailed
I was proud; I loved
Now, my gold is stone, my patience is string, and my eyes rest on his death
For his chain will break and his anchor will fall to the endless sea
and this ship will be at last set free

Words For Friends


I washed down this key with my love 
And walked for miles to loose my mind
But, this safe is full and this secret is too strong
I speak slander words and play the fool to kill the hunters
But it’s fall
and the bullets slice the leaves, causing me to gasp,
trying to find a route to escape my saviors
Because I am a deer falling from fear
and they are hungry; I’ll feed them
I have been stalking the night, and it knows
Death is stalking me and I cover it from cold
My thoughts are pillowed and I am in love for seconds
Thinking it’s an end
Though I see through this misery of illusion 
Feeling my thoughts weep,
Knowing those seconds death is my closest friend,
And realizing I’m happy
I’ll smile and look in her eyes, as if I finally mean it 
She’ll take her time and sing to me,
Thinking she will rescue my sins, even for a brief moment of time
But I found my God
And I shattered my father’s lies, and kiss the family for waking me from dreams
Because death is my closest friend and I’m happy

Just Another Tuesday


My lady, you are mad
the night time, your blind time
your mind out grew its shell and you can’t seem to speak
these pants are ripped at the seams, leaving me nude
babes speak, they shake
my dick is untouched
and now the fag is me
she says she misses me
she says a lot
he’s heading out west again
he’s trying to find his eyes
I can’t help him
she can’t help him
and I drank up all his milk

The honest eyes of a broken new born breaks me down.
Grandfather clock is running out of time;
these pills are overwhelming me as the carved old man cries.
His red mother has beaten him with loving bats,
While his son eats from an apple tree.
My identity is stolen from me;
My traveling time turns into a fine left in the mail.
Silence is spoken, my family is dead.
The beaches are empty, my pillow case is dry. 
This doesn’t make sense.
Still, I have honor from the music we create in prison.
I have joy from her voice…
