I have a new book coming out on Interior Noise Press. Some of these will be submitted for it, others will not. Laying on a pile of poems and just posting them as I feel it. So, to read the poems that won't be on here...you have to buy the book! I'll let you know when its coming out, shouldn't be till later this year which gives me plenty of stuff to post stuff, and stash stuff, to make an incredible book.
Welcome to
the Machine
There's no time for chasing
whiskey with shadows, when the cross is crooked and graffiti covers it like a
hip hop totem pole. Territory marked with piss, Love is a card trick you see on
the street corner, sex is fake currency and propaganda for the illuminate.
Self‐Absorbed and still leaking,
I cut Joan of Arc's hair with an old rusty straight razor. I would strap on a
chainsaw and take Wendy O' Williams right here on this floor. I would sit next
to you on the porch swing if you'd tell me a story. Just remember I'm too old
for fairy tales and I never believed in Santa Claus.

I saw the gift horse there
once, but he kept his mouth shut because he didn't want anyone to see his
rotting, slimy teeth.
Claustrophobic. We are both
just using each other for one last breath. So sometimes when you are sleeping I
put my lips on yours and inhale as much of you in as I can. I’m not sure who
I’m trying to finish off, I only feel the approaching suffocation, and choking
on wishes granted by shooting stars.
