I have so many unfinished poems
How dare I call myself a writer?
Or is that what a writer is?
Unfinished potential

Foolproof not deathproof
Nothing matters
I have lifetimes to accomplish what I want to accomplish
What I don’t get done in this life, I can get done in the next
And if that turns out not be true
It won’t matter anyway
Because I will be dead.
Foolproof

Hepatitis Hell
My brother is in the hospital diagnosed with alcohol related hepatitis. Alcohol is such an insidious little thing, whispering in your ear, “You need me” while slowly killing you. He still does not know if he is going to drink. All I can do is pray. It is divine intervention that he even went to detox. I will give my liver if it still works, I love him so much. This may mean moving back...

I knew I was being mean, a pure cunt, a true bitch, even before I was mean. When it happens, I can’t stop it. I set out to destroy my victim, whoever it is that happens to be the unfortunate recipient of my snark. My bite is actually much harder than my bark. The words effortlessly drip from my pointy tongue, and my eyes narrow into tiny slits, closing to hide the selfless, soul that once was.

It’s nights like tonight where I miss your cold bedroom, and your warmth.

The darkness of the room envelops him. The burst of light from the screen hits his face like the morning sun. He barely has time to adjust before he sees her. Sees her. Her and him? She is not alone. She is supposed to be alone. His heart beats faster and faster and faster. He approaches and pulls out his knife. Standing in the empty theatre above the kissing couple, he jabs the back of the...

Curiosity turns to infatuation turns to obsession turns to rejection turns to anger turns to outward rage turns to inward hate turns to sobbing sadness turns to deep depression turns to suicide.

I want to be inside of you, so deep, so fucking deep inside that you rebirth me and then swallow me whole.
And then I can never leave you again.

Shattered glasses strewn about. Chaos in the loft. He looks at her with waning interest. He leaves the loft once more. She stares at all her pent up rage externalized into ripped linens, bent, wooden frames, and broken highball glasses. She sobs for what feels like days until she is out of breath and out of time. He walks the lonely streets to a hotel. He thinks of her only once, and then never...

Happy Hip Hop Hip Hip Halloween
Clubs and bars and shiny cars My contemptuous cries loud as lion roars
Drinks at six and dine at nine
Drink gallons of gin and dinner is wine
Where is the scene?
Where ever you are.
I’m not cool enough for this place
Not broken enough to wear that forlorn face
That these trendy trollops have perfected
That gaunt look of disaffected
Youth full of money and martyr-hood
Name dropping nymphs...

From ghosts you get no sympathy
Just hollow, haunted effigies
begging to burn.
Your life is yours to pity
When you live a life of lethargy
Your soul is yours to mourn.

early-onset-of-night:
I am excited that my Cosmo came today, and I had a dandy ol’ time reading it on the toilet. I admit it. I am a toilet reader. It has gotten to the point where I am unable to even use the facilities without something to read. Sometimes, I will sit there on the throne reading for so long that my…
Hygiene

I clean my mind,
like I clean a room;
I imagine a team of proboscis monkeys
that wash the soiled,
shelve and sweep.
For, a tidy mind
I must keep.

Top five regrets of the dying
nevver:
I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
I wish I hadn’t worked so hard.
I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.
I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
I wish that I had let myself be happier.
