Murder's at the door -
so sorry I can't let you in
feel the cold seep through the seams
you won't bury me,
I won't slip beneath.
The fatal knock grows loud -
it echoes through my empty space
resist it - seal the door
if I fail, intentions stain the floor
I once was just a boy who wondered things,
chased my dreams, kept searching.
now my dreams like clouds high over me,
hold the key...
still knocking.

I forget when I did this

Much less why

A storm of red
A flash of silk
Swift feet bring death on highest heels
An angry love she can no longer feel

I do not know Mora,
My Dear Sweet Lenora

Claws of the Lioness
A striking of nail
Passionate hate fueling her lustful drives
Of sexual fear, her good hand hives

She meant nothing to me, that Cora
My Dear Sweet Lenora

A pail stream on a riverbed smooth
A piercing shriek, like harpy?s song
Betrayal comes in the most beautiful forms
God has competition, from a lover scorned

Who is this Flora,
My Dear Sweet Lenora

Gentle breakings of spectacular muscles
A softly ephemeral eternal embrace
Tears congregate, smiles hide
Love is reborn, from hatred died

You are my one, my only
My Dear Sweet Lenora

A couple new pieces:

--

Opportunity, abashed with selfish silence,
dwindles in the air I've disturbed with my breath.
I celebrate a fickle friend's arrival.

This fluidity, this certain sense of compliance,
which kindles through the depths I've disturbed in my mind,
allows me opportunity to reflect.

--

I keep my hold,
but without a center on it.
I pray I'm whole,
but it all falls down again.

I stray, I'm bold,
but without a center conflict.
I take it on,
there's no where left to swim.

Sign in, then hold.
Offer your compliance.
You're red, I know.
But the line is growing thin.

I scream, "I know,
that I depend on failing promise..."
I pray, humbled.
Recognize, and start again.

Childish, but I like it

A flurry of feathers!
A flurry of night!
The Crow is in another fight!

A beak like a knife!
Like a killer’s friend!
The Crow is brave he likes to pretend!

He blocks the light!
He blocks the breeze!
Damn The Crow with the happy disease!

He flies over your head!
He flies under your soul!
The Crow always skims the moral toll!

He caws with glee!
He caws with me!
He caws when the pleasant times must flee!

Bless The Crow!
And his feathery shame!
The Crow has accepted your contended game!

He will bargain the stars!
He will plead with the moon!
He will ensure your suspected doom!

There he is now!
That avian whore!
The one who spies outside your door!

The one who taunts!
The one who saves!
The one who will guard your ephemeral grave!

Look at The Crow!
Look at him sing!
Of death and misery and other such things!

Will he tell of his life?
Will his lies be true?
It's up to The Crow, and not to you!

New material... un-named thus far:

--

Please disregard my offenses. I did not intend to rain.
My second hand revolves, but I cannot find my refrain.
Steps ahead of trying, I recall reliance ending.
But sending out the violence has retrieved me only pain.

I search for a second's silence, silent voices must remain;
in lieu of realization, it is "search" I must abstain.
I try to find my silence; try to reach past love and pain.
But try, it starts to tangle. It’s much too tight in it's restraint.

The distance reaches deeper, so much deeper I must race.
I see you standing strong, an inspiration in my gaze.
I feel my balance trembling; I detect my fate impending.
I heard there's a secret ending... one my mind cannot appraise.

I was skeptical at first, but now I'm starting to adhere
to all that mumbo psychic freaks insist on whisper'n in my ear.
I'm high above the ocean now. I'm starting to see clear.
I found the road again, somehow. And now I must adhere.

Pure, free, flow, just be
Slide into nature
Don't question, just be

Silence the society
Free your mind
Open to all, just be

"People living deeply have no fear of death."
"Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love."
"Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings."

Why I Hate Poetry: the poem

Shakespear replaced by Shatner
Abounding Ignorance of Iambic Pentameter
everyone..
thinks....
theyareapoet

Vague, ambiguous, and incomplete
liberally studded with "You", "I" and "Me"
you....
mustletgo....
cause I.....
can't say no.....

Your poetry sucks, but excuse your chagrin
because Sandburg was horrible, and so was Whitman
It doesnt get any worse reading Leaves of Grass
until having to read some Ogden Nash

A small incision at the base of your spine and I'm fucking your brain stem
A semino-spinal slurry sublime
A gnosis in the end

Strange and Cryptic Poetry
--------------------------

If I had my way, we'd be...
set free.
Like the leaves of the sassafras trees.

But I sing just out of key--
and believe me--
it's the norm; and I naturally...

freeze.
Like a deer--
in a halogen halo.

This one belongs on myspace and the fact I don't even have a myspace, this poem shames me

The Flaw

Stab my heart
See it bleed
Mix the crimson
With my seed
Plant the seed
Make sure it grows
Feed its flower
My bridal clothes
Burn my clothes
Eat the ash
Put the rest
Into the sash
Take the sash
Go to the pier
Hurl the sash
And drown your fear
Stare at your fear
Look the eyes
Face the colors
That made you cry
Go home and cry
For another day
Laugh at the moon
So pale and gay
Tale that gay
And shoot it down
Watch the smiles
Devolve to frowns
Take those frowns
And strangle them
Use your hands
And force the end
Now write the end
Dip your quill
Into your veins
And begin the thrill

Walking the streets, pondering serial numbers and codes,
Alone with too much noise and casual interference,
finding not enough sunlight in my obscure corner,
as rationed by monoliths of steel and glass and too much paper,
Leaning in to constrict and belittle.
Like shoulder pads, as shown by the teller at the bank,
Where the long metal handrails clink down the staircase
And send their song spiraling down towards the lobby
Or out towards the daylight and casual interference.

one more
relfecting through a foggy mirror
recipient of anonymous threats
wondering lost in hollow gloaming
marveling high in lonely desert
at heavenly bodies cast unsung
unlike heroes named in neon arenas
where mass's excess leaves a stain
to cover up with threadbare carpet
or scrub out with noxious cleansing
It runs in the gutters after raining
clandestine color, shapeless fluid
to kill a songbird, make blind a child
to cast precious stones into crucible glowing
undoing nature's conquered will
to make false scenes of human progress
by choosing a facet of sideways sunlight
as reflected through a broken mirror


--------------------
FREEDOM ACROSS THE UNIVERSE!!!

I wrote this really quickly for an AIM away message. (sleeping)

My eyes have closed away the day
And opened up the night
Silent, still, alone I lay
Engulfed in mental sight

Traveling through an endless plane
I remember all I see
Locked inside my active brain
In a new reality

Time inside does not exist
Nor does wrong or right
When I leave I won't be missed
Events won't be as bright

If you wish to see me now
As hard as it may seem
Lay your tired body down
And join me in my dream.

Almond fingers wrest the pen
They scrawl away the dready hours
He writes it like he sees it, yeah
He writes it like he sees it
Then he never quite believes it
Till he sits inside his den again
