Bunny Rabbits Don’t Make Mistakes

I’ve made mistakes

I’ve skipped a few

I hide

A run from it

Instead of facing it

Yes, like you, I run

In different directions

A fear of the help

I ran down tree tunnels

And bunny rabbit trails

I hit holes

And travel in the fog

But the bunny rabbits

They continue to nibble

All in the right places

They never make mistakes

They do everything right

Hop along

Away from me

Towards me at times

Those certain times

But I, I made the mistake

The mistakes

I have forgotten the importance

Of patience among care and feeding

... said the little rabbit

Bunny rabbits never make mistakes

They guard the family’s territory

On the land of Christ

They make sure I burrow

Deep down inside

And pretend to not hear

You quickly pull out

Remember?

As if unnoticed

Not from either direction

In the dark, you are a bunny rabbit

In the daylight, who am I?

Who am I?

Rugged Sexy Rebel

Shake of a bet

I met you at night

A drag you had

The look you gave me

We stared silently

As others looked on

Connected beneath your skirt

As you painted my portrait

Eyes locking & bending

Till Midnight

You watch me walk off

Mistakenly

My memory recalls

Sexy attitude

I’ll find an artist’s tool

And phone you later

Your St. Sunshine hair

Your bright blue eyes

Wonders reflecting my own

Absorbing my own

Captivating and swallowing me up

Your peace of mind

And committed heart

To the artists and the young

Ignited by chance

At the heat of November

The rains drowning my sorrow

Thoughts of you - rapidly fly

Your exquisite bi-line

A pleasure call to those who defend

A human touch needed

Heart pounding for your uncommon desire

Quietness and calmness

Innocence revealed through years

Only your beauty is an image

Burned into my mind

220 sandwet

I was at your doorstep

With a semi-automatic

Ready to kill

Make your teeth bleed

You told me wrong

A lie

And now you must pay

For you have created time

An erotic porn star

In the doorway frame

Standing like an old fashion whore

From out west no where

You always make me weak

But every time I come back to fight

With strength so strong

Of raging black bulls

I’ve been to different countries

And fucked you everywhere

You wait on me and stare at me

You charge me and change me

A glowing business man waits

Your pinks, purples and blues

I think it’s time to change

The rules

I ask to photograph

Your pregnancy

Your fat belly

And large milk nipples

Talking drunk to me

Flirting with your eyes

Exploring art with me

Reading East books

Like a 76 deck

I watch you burn

You crumble and fall

And expect me to pick you up!?

No. Not me.

I’ll leave you for the vultures

For the pretty salt ones at sea

I’ll leave you for the celebrations

And the church worshipping beggars

I was at your doorstep

With a dozen flowers in hand

You slammed the door in my face

And now you ask me

Why I have your lover’s hand?

Freedom

Heading West

At sixty-five

Seeing the hills roll over

The burning hills on fire

Glowing reds and oranges

With a great wonderful halo

Hearing the tune and hymns

Of rediscovery

And all I can say is

Freedom at Last! Freedom at Last!

Heading West

Realizing there is no more

Had it all

Until the end

Survived much

To continue on

Had a bird

And nut-less board

Missed my cat

His eyes and glare

Decision of mades

And maids dancing with red

Sled riding hills

The West on Fire

Freedom at Last! Freedom at Last!

With thoughts of you,

My friend

You.

Messages of thanks

As re-runs get fatter

Recalling hatred

Over misty mountains

Control is thirst

And I for you.

Freedom at Last!

Freedom at Last!

Father’s Day

Wine

With you

Going down

Caressing your every curve

Bend

Tender

Soft skin

I slide

My soapy hands

Guiding them down

Your slender silky body

I remember your kindness

Your devotion

Your lust you shared

I remember our desire

Your heart

Your eyes

As you stand beside me

In our shower

With hot water dripping down

Our souls exchanging

Our hands rubbing

Feeling

I stand behind you

Grasping your breasts

Your stiff nipples

Kissing the back of your neck

Your warm neck

Sliding my fingers through your hair

Wetness all around

Suds between

I pour

The wine

Red wine down your back

In your hair

Candlelit shown

The wine pours down

Between your ass cheeks

And on my cock

Across your breasts

And down your stomach

In the depths of your cute navel

And further down

Deep inside

Your wet pussy lips

Inside your warmth

The sex we shall have

Water all around

Red wine shared

Passion explored

In our steamy shower

As my cock rubs up against your ass

A tingle between your legs

I kiss you from behind

And give you poetry with my hands

My touch

My thrust

I give

A man in Omaha found silver

Crazies with methods of money making

Popping in and out of lining sidewalks

Women braless bouncing with loose fitting tops

Lime green shirts and checkered pants

Fitting fine

Fine man

Elevator lifters

9th avenue buttons

Park nectars

Brown captures

Devil keepers and stocking stuffers

White trash replicas

And grandma’s make-up

Transvestite hookers and game players

Fatality heat and laughing belt stranglers

Television, Radio, Communicating networks at net worth

I got the winning rub-off in my pocket

Grieving make-up old ladies

Parody at your feet

Industries of devil CEOS

Beauty queens along the park

Pretentious riders and fake believers

Gorgeous generations of generosity

Tortured Crush

Stab me in the heart

Remind me of a memory

Walk with me to the park

Watch the swans go by

Hold my hand tight

And stare into my blue eyes

I bite my lip and taste my sorrow

Knowing that maybe

You don’t want the lust

I would give up everything

To touch you and feel you

To be drowned in your brown eyes

Falling from heaven into another heaven

Floating skies and flying doves in pairs

Swallowing up inside

See me, the one in front

See who I am

And don’t let me hide

Break the rules

And gather your thoughts

The crush gets deeper

With every move you make

Mysterious walks

And talks

A puncture in the back

I would burn my art

For the kiss at your lips

I would see no one on earth

For the warmth of your heart

I would sacrifice my thoughts daily

For your touch of every day

I would make every wish and dream come true

For the beauty gaze on your brown eyes

I would sacrifice my soul

For the sweetness of your lips

I would bleed forever

For you to survive in happiness

I would taste your tears

With my silent tongue

The crush kills me

It twists me

Like bent molten metal

Turns me upside down

Like Romeo and Juliet

It’s a Tortured Crush

A poisonous desire

I would let you inside

And see myself

My disease of emotions

I’ll be your sister and brother

You stripped me of my innocence

My virginity

And my belief

I remember

I remember watching the snowfall beneath the street lamp

While I hoped for the death of education at tomorrow’s first sunrise

I remember fucking the cocaine high mother

While her hubby with a stache jerked off while on-looking

I remember burning ants with a magnify glass as a kid

While hearing their pops and smelling their skin toast

I remember my big plastic green army machine gun

While playing army man at war in my treelined backyard

I remember the squirrel that chewed up electric lines

While I brought one as a gift in a bag for a friend

I remember the ones who said no

While I continue to kneel down and ask for forgiveness

I remember recording their conversations

While I masturbated to their smelly dates

I remember playing tic-tacs

While being psychic

I remember seeing the elder guy fuck the bonded one

While I on-looked the fat man’s praise

I remember Valentine’s and open air January

While winter came and gone

I remember pinning moths after the catch

While spreading their powder and glisten across my fingers

I remember watching peace

While nails came out of doors

I remember spray-painting ‘GASM’ on cement

While the stream sparkled and frogs leaped and croaked

I remember my big wheels

While skidding in the gravel dirt at the circle

I remember being pulled over by a trooper

While a semi-automatic was being fired just across my head

I remember writers taking cabs

While others talked dollars around round tables

I remember cows being tipped

While I told stories of lies

I remember my father in a limo

While dark race traveled through words of conduct on Broadway streets

I remember wet dreams in fantasy sheets

While urine tests proved nothing

I remember your face as you read my poetry

While I connected dots to satisfy your wet one

I remember your analyzation of my soul

While I take a bullet between my bitten teeth

I remember the love you have given

While I refused to listen

I remember the god in Florida

While I was a little kid who packaged large ones

I remember stealing plastic whores of fat drunken pigs

While skeptical apples knew of my existence

I remember falling in deep shit

While the shit didn’t even recognize my face

I remember your thoughts and feelings

While I write this damn mother fucker today

Untitled (Together)

Two together

Feeling the souls

Pouring water

Washing the heat

Twisting the passion

All around

Caressing your lips

Following your silky legs

Up your thighs

Feeling the inside

With my tongue against yours

Two tongues exchanging

Exploring wonders

And the warmness inside

Sweat created

And devoured with thirst

Tracing the curves

Imbedded under water

Nibbling and stroking

From inside and out

Soothing and massaging

Wondering about

Smoothness felt

Fingers between hair

Gentle kisses

And thrusts of desire

Candle light by tub tonight

Hot water to cool

Flowers smelt and cheered

For you

For you

Waiting For Love

People tell me I shouldn’t look

That I should wait

That love will come to me

Let me tell you -

For I have waited

My patience is a daily vitamin

And a drug I deliver outwards

I wait all day

For the sunshine to set

Because I know the next day

I will wait no longer

I wake up each day

Thinking a lot

It hurts so much

That I handcuff my thoughts

To pully systems of rust and thorns

That I shoot myself daily

With pains of starving children

And abused and tortured

Souls from heaven

I wait

I do not seek

I wait for its arrival

I calmly sit

By lakes and skyscrapers

Upon breezes and fireflies

And upon decks and concourses

I wait.

I wait for a prophet

Or an angel

I wait for a sign

but never look.

All I can do

Is wait.

Home

Home is where you think

Home is where you choose

Home is where you live

Home is

Over here

And over there

Home is mine

And yours

Home is his, hers, and theirs

Home is below and beyond

Above and inside

Home is music and art

Home is sex and poetry

Home is my lover and my partner

Home is my family and friends

Home is where children are beaten

And kids go home to kill themselves

Home is where wives get beaten and raped

And men get drunk and snort

Home is a junkie’s palace and whore’s nightmare

Home is a July bath and pilgrimage

Home is a safety slut and music concourse

Home is a rotten body in hell

And a governor’s secret

Home is a religious sacrifice

And a family reunion

Home is a place for self-esteem escapees

And starving rabies

Home is America and Antarctica

Home is Singapore and London

Belfast and Chile

Home is butterflies and flowers

Daisies and valleys

Home is tunes and currents

And fellowship wings

Home is brothers and sisters

And kind thoughts progressing

Home is a coffin

And cemetery

Home is a church and temple

A revenge and jungle

Home is my control

And your lost feeling

Home is a devil’s prophet

And a ruler’s gold

Home is a bunker and a blanket

A sailor and a buddy

Home is a doll and car truck

A river of scum

Flowing down earthling drains

Home is a toilet

Constantly being flushed

Home is the de-fucked earth

Swallowed up in corporate problems

Spilled oil

And burnt forests

Hard-to-breathe air folk

And jet engine silence

Home is Nuclear war

And racist handshakes

Home is color bled dyes

And revolution wars

Home is sweet

And to be shared

Home is ours

And will forever be there

Looking For Love

I’m looking for love

In all the wrong places

I look under rocks

And between sheets

I look far beyond states

And travel to different cities

I look in the papers and magazines

I look on the television and

Pay attention to the ra-dio

I look at the park

And in elevators

I look below me and in front

I look on the street

And in taxi cabs too

I look on airplanes, trains, and buses

I look with fever

Hands held out

I look with money pocketed

And lust trapped in heart

I look with eyes

Never set upon

And look with a tongue

That never tasted love

I’m looking for love

In all the wrong places

Or maybe I’m just in the wrong place

Looking for Love

South American Blood

I see your taint eyes

Like a tranquilizer at night

Cool ocean breeze

And swarms of bees

Your cold black ovals

Eyes squinting at me

Hearing your accent

A puke of innocence

Your black reversed letters

Commanding P’s

Your voice ringing bells

And alarms forgotten

Suicide phone calls

And dripping juices

Crimes and borders

Patrols of dinero

Thinking of multiples

And your name

Wish I knew it

And had a daisy in my hair

Feeling strokes

Wish I knew those folks

Rhyming with hatred

And tired old tires

Burnt lungs

And tropical trees

Mothers recalled

I missed the delivery

I missed your arms

Hardly knew you

You approached me beneath virgin lights

All I was; was a fashion freak

You rise a club

A dish or two

I eat plenty

Of your lost vision

A butterfly in the wind

Feeling rain beneath my neck

Flowing fluid

Around my white waist

She stands next to me

By my river of hope and destination

She stands next to me

Still and cold.

Her nipples stiff

Hard in the rain

White displays my desire

My erection only proven

She is a butterfly today

And showed me the way

She taught me the light

And showed me the sunrise

We sat outside

And smelled the stars

Looked upon

Each other’s gaze

She is a mystery girl

One with wings

I found her tonight

And remember her yesterday

She is my heart

Standing next to me

In a gapless land

In a stretch across heartland

Telling no lies

She is but one truth

Unheard through eyes

Only your vocals

Temperature rises

Beneath covers

Christmas Trees

And laundry days

I sit on a windowsill

Look below me at the ground

I feel the suicide

And sacrifice myself daily

I do the soup and OJ and everything between

I do the goods the bads and the travels

I do the marches the parades and the writings

I do the paintings and audios and the lifts too

But still

What I do most

Is wait

And

Give

I hear the flapping

Her flapping now

The Butterfly’s wings

Of yellow nature

From out west currents

I feel the flapping

In my arms

Surrounding smiles

And warmth now joined

There is only one

But one

A butterfly in the wind

A butterfly in the wind...

The Hit

So anyway, I was going down Grand Central Parkway, right. Right, and I see this guy, right, on the side of the road. And he’s just like standing there. In all this traffic, right, and I see him, on the side. So, I stop by him, right. He was a hitchhiker. So, right, I picked him up. So, we continue driving, right, down the parkway, right. I’m headed for the Triborough bridge, right. To go up north to the New England states, right. With the hitchhiker. And we continue, right, and the hitchhiker then warns me. Right, he says to me, “There are people up ahead, on the right shoulder, their car is broken down.” Right, okay. So, I’m warned, and then the hitchhiker said to me, “Why don’t you hit them?” So, still on Grand Central Parkway, right, heading towards Triborough bridge, I continue. And then, right, as I approach the people. I hit them all, right, just like them being dominoes, right.

notes on paper

Only my sorry ass

Can be shot by your loaded pistol

Girls of bellowing nature

Tend to suck really great

Womyn without intelligence,

I ditch

Fury babies are

Like refrigerator icons

Pornography is an

Artist’s ambition

And my call-out

Is a musician’s photograph

And my lover is

The arm chair you spread on

Insanity

It’s not their beauty

Or their curves

That drives me to insanity

It’s not the concave of the navel

Or the bends in their backs

It’s not the softness of their skin

Or scent of their soul

That makes me insane

It’s not their delight

Or kindness

It’s not their slenderness

Or intelligence

That brings me to the ward

It’s the way they are presented

Displayed

On a pedestal

It’s their clothes

Their makeup

Their garments

Their extras

Their beautifications

It’s their transparent white blouses

Their lace white bras

And tight red skirts

It’s their thong underwear

And hot red barbie lipstick

It’s their sistership

And innocence

Their leather pants

And latex too

It’s their

Corporate perfume

And

Designer’s gain

It’s their made-up high cheek bones

And gravity killed tits

That’s what makes

me insane
