I’m all coffee no belly-full So my jitters are plentiful  These brain farts are seminal And I’ll admit I’m a sheep Deep in the retreat Of buzz’s heap Every cell beeped  So further into me I sent them all  I creep around with so many thoughts I go quiet I’m concrete under the marching feet [...]

There’s that moment past midnight When you’re the only one in the house that smokes You sit on that front step, that balcony And toke as the city strokes Your burning hair with its fluorescent flare  Daring you to share in its busyness  You’re lizardess in your creeping Steeping in your deep treating Of solitude, [...]

How to explain your pain To the person you love? How to tell them their Contribution Is more than enough But that some days your darkness Don’t give a fuck And it paints the world All the same shades As you spray red At the cuff It’s insulting That their touch Can’t get you out [...]

I’ve got to admit it, finally, that The sneaking round’s got limitations I’ve never been one to lie too tough But I can’t deny your invitations They only see the aftermath, not the birth And it’s like with you I ain’t got reservations And I can just do all these things That usually cause hesitation [...]

If I do it every time Then every time I do it I never want to go from know To knew it I never want to stress you Wreck you Compress you I just want to protect you I know I’m the fragile bones But that brittle stone Went roughish  I’m home-ish Not the loveliness [...]

Time’s falling through me Like sand through my fingers  Nowadays no second lingers I ain’t wished to stop so much  In a long time I wouldn’t say no to The world fucking off for a bit And my friends all thinking I was dead for the week But reality don’t work like that I can’t [...]

Every tender step is met with shards of glass I watch the beaten path With eyes that dart at single flicker Still my tentative figure is charred In the harsh blast of your scarred And eager charge, when you march Through the hard tenement of my past I sit hands under chin and laugh Hoping [...]

I walk that corner afternoon- -there’s nothing there. My nostrils flare- -that olfactory dare can’t even bare its truth. At this hour the power of fume- scares away bloom from filling this concrete room with its glory. But when I turn it- early morning-  story goes full told- -surely I’m not the only one smelling [...]

I never promised sanctuary I never said you could stay either I never asked for sun or rain No I never asked for neither I let you get on with it And did my best to return that favour I never threatened enemies Or asked for saviour Was happy with the lacklustre And satisfied come [...]
