- This is one of my most recent poems, and one of my best I'm told...
-
- FEAR
- why is it that this madness strikes
- as if i should be sleeping
- i feel like a child, sneaking
- awake too late to watch a scary movie
- these words twist and grind out of me
- impure, tainted, and yes, i am afraid
- these words shoot forth like a shot
- like so many pretty fleeting things
- leaving an exit wound that is my life
- my heart, and yes, again, my fear
- i was not quite asleep, on the verge
- on the threshold of lucidity, of dream!
- and i let it slip from me, mindlessly
- without a thought, indulging in my fear
- afraid that there is no god, afraid of truth
- afraid of being alone, afraid of love
- afraid that i am not what i say i am
- afraid that she does not love me or care
- or that no one will or that nothing is real
- afraid to be what i really am
- afraid of nothing
- so i sneak, fearful of discovery
- excited to know, i am a child
- and all that's left of that fleeting moment
- between wakefulness and sleep
- are these words, and yes, i am afraid
- they're meaningless...

- Here's one from my Thelema Lodge O.T.O. days...
-
- MASKS
- there is no blood
- there is no cup
- there is no sky
- when i look up
- there is no dark
- not even light
- i no longer have
- the strength to fight
- the snake can't strike
- the dove won't fly
- and I am living
- this terrible lie
- the temple has burned
- down to the ground
- i stop to listen
- there is no sound
- the egg lies broken
- the babe is dead
- as dreams of life
- run through my head
- stillborn and mute
- not even a chance
- only the masks
- left here to dance
- visions of joy
- let sorrow reveal
- there's nothing for
- the masks to conceal...
-
-
-
- Here's a couple straight from the heart...
-
- PIECES
- no one understands me
- the way that I love
- for no reason at all
- without limit or fear
- my heart is suicidal
- burning up in flames
- how it keeps on beating
- when its torn in two
- or three or a thousand
- pieces scatter away
- until nothing is left
- nothing left for myself
- and I cannot afford to cry
- because there is yet more
- and I fall again and again
- into your arms my lover
- will we meet tomorrow?
- in a different place
- with other faces and names
- loving until there is nothing
- and the world has gone away
- I do remember you my love
- and I recognize your eyes
- black and cold, inviting
- the gateway to my death
- a thousand graves lie open
- waiting for pieces of my heart
- and still I am unafraid
- even though I am alone...
-
-
- JEALOUS
- The jealous ones they fear love
- and can never possess it
- or control it or make it go away
- and when it does cross their path
- they consume it and waste it
- for lesser petty things
- they chain it down and beat it
- and love is never free
- the jealous ones, afraid
- that they will never know love
- and yet chase love away...
-
-
-
- Here's one for those afraid of love and/or sanity
-
- TRADERS
-
- i'd give my soul to know
- what hurt you so much
- my heart cannot imagine
- what hurt you so badly
- that you won't let me
- give you the love
- that you deserve and need
- i can't rape you
- and i have no soul
- i traded it away
- for a pack of smokes
- to that awful man
- you know the one
- he took your love away
- and sold it for a carton
- and now he has something
- that he cannot use
- and we are all bereft
- but still i love you
- it's too damn bad
- you won't let it mean anything
- it's too damn bad
- i'll never know why
