I want to spit the Unforgiving truth across your unsaved face Slap your mouth with my sharpened tongue Fatten and split your lip In front of the empty fridge Where you picked apart my imperfections Just before the exam When I'd barely yet begun to be You hated hated hated me Hungry for the elucide…Read more Salt

Death of a Dream Journal
Cratered Lake and pot-holed The soul-hungry collective stalked empty mauls Hollow cases Echoed cries of the old normal We should have never been Taking as opposed to giving or sheltering tree Bitten Stung Strung out How should love be? A nearby wedding Featuring meth addicted bested men Filled the former foyers of Wall Street With…Read more Death of a Dream Journal
Venus
Say What you will With only means To take A rake to the bottom of the sea's soul Cutting through silt and coral To slit the ocean wide Gently bleeding, gilded girls Whale Stuffing the metal fist with clam shells How we long and weight To breathe Pliant prying Poke and prod I said no…Read more Venus

Mal Nuit
The smell of the sheets gave her away. She's a stripper. (I love my sisters) Why are we in her bed? There's no where else to sleep. It could hardly be called a bed, though this was sadly, infuriatingly familiar. A mattress pad on the floor of some glorified closet. Had I learned nothing? Had…Read more Mal Nuit
Fire Bird
Swallow the son Shine Your sin is not my shade Fly Ignited alive On paper This trauma mastery is a dime bag of bull shake Holy Shit! For Fox sake Your fragile egos Eat sensationalized lies For breakfast, lunch and Donner Inglorious gluttony Insatiable beasts Running at break neck speed A spectrum of death Walking,…Read more Fire Bird
