Racketeering
There are tears for things That we don’t give away A pause of breath as we Save sentiments Yet upon the coffers lie An excess of counterfeit Songs and music worth Their movements in gold Still, the greed to keep What’s sweet lives on As sicarios in the sun Who can’t have enough Denying theContinue reading “Racketeering”
Cryptsinfreeze
This homesickness Twists with tight grip Things that have Long since passed I’m coming home To the yesterday I say I’m coming home Distorted moments Dolled up and vibrant I’m twisted, too To revisit you I’m coming home To dead memories Crypts in freeze I’m coming home Remembering it all So much brighter Than perhapsContinue reading “Cryptsinfreeze”

This is too fucking cool to let go Out with someone I haven’t seen In nearly two years How the fuck did I end up Passenger in someone else’s story?
Dry Blood
Jagged leaf edges Crisping with Heat of frictious Ultraviolence As stabbed by Serrated Switchblades of sun And shade They burn And ebb away Puddles in gutters By wind to blow Of dusk And shadow Wine drenched bark And branches hark To coming dawn Near dark As wine turns whiter And cresting light further Set uponContinue reading “Dry Blood”
