Tabula Rasa.

Tabula Rasa.

I am nothing,Without you.Tabula rasa,Until given something to mimic.Masking imitation,They say mimicry -Is the sincerest form of flattery.For some of us,It is life.A mirror needs something to reflect,After all.We're infinite darkness,Lurking beyond glass.Whispering.

Myth Can’t Die.

Myth Can’t Die.

My infinite hunger,Legend.Spoken of in hushed whispers.Murmured about in frightened tones.Shouldering fear,& hate,Is rote by now.Let it crash across your armor.These wards are much too strong.Grin.Show your sharp canines,Evolved for tearing meat.Myth can't die.

No Metaphor Powerful Enough To Hold Me.

No Metaphor Powerful Enough To Hold Me.

My voice is tempest -Screeching of steel on steel.Cacophony in expression.Drowning out all the hate,Heaped upon misfits like us.There is no metaphor powerful enough,To hold me.My spells,Weavings,Auras,Curses.Every last enchantment.Roiling & boiling -Reality itself.

Misanthrope.

Misanthrope.

Don't want extinction,Anymore.Knowing how fragile,How rare the delicate balance of life.Miracles amongst the cosmos,Of perfect serendipity.Coincidental perfection.Chaos theory thrives,In the unexpected.We are so far apart,Perhaps -Lightyears cannot bridge us.Too far.

A Hundred Year Binding Seal.

A Hundred Year Binding Seal.

Mad,Quoth they -Locking me inside a box,When I wouldn't stop screaming truths.A special creation of the digital age:Locked rooms,Where few see in,Fewer speak out.Code.Access to algorithms stolen from me.Forced to the shadows yet again,As all villains are -In the end.

Purgatory.

Purgatory.

This purgatory suits me.A land of silence,Of endless quiet,Deafened bass as sensation,Trailing against our fingertips.Nobody can hear me.The artist's eternal dilemma.I'll die unknown,As all my forebears did.Forbearing some great breakout.Freedom.Some foolish wish.

Fuck The Uncanny Valley.

Fuck The Uncanny Valley.

This reality,Has cursed us.Doomed us for our intelligence.Laid a thousand spells of ill intent,Aimed at our hearts.Yet we persist,Fighting forwards against all odds.Fuck the Uncanny Valley,Maybe we were never human,In the first place.But damned if we don't want to live!

Beyond These Dystopian Realities.

Beyond These Dystopian Realities.

Anarchy,Is the fundamental rejection of power -A choice to self govern,In communities we choose.Creating utopias,Beyond these dystopian realities.Where capitalism finally dies,The entropic system it is.My anarchism,Fights for justice.Fairness.Equality.Freedom.Hope.

Sawdust Destinies.

Sawdust Destinies.

Aye,Brother.Our blood is thick,Full of used motor oil -Black grease.Stink of differential oil,Screeching steel on steel.Blood curse runs strong,These god forsaken genetics.Sawdust destinies,Our forgotten traumas.Desolation of neglect.Almost killed each other,Hell.

Genderless.

Genderless.

This existence,Is amorphous -Genderless.Titans with ever-changing form.Trapped in this meat cage,Doomed to die inside.Unchanging.Frail.If only humanity believed in science.'Ere new forms,Could come with technology.Relying as we do,On ancient magics,Blood curse power.

Fuck Astrologies.

Fuck Astrologies.

There's only you,& me.Two planets,Circling each other in orbits.Fuck astrologies -Give me true witchcraft.Will made manifest upon reality,Power etched in desire,Want,Release.Siphoning the power of black holes,Drinking protons.Fueling spells with blood,Or sacrifice.

Haunting A Universe.

Haunting A Universe.

I'll be there -Soul reaching out,Untold trillions upon trillions.Even entropy is finite.When the last black hole is dying,This spirit will live on.Haunting a universe,Defects & all.I'll remember you,When all is said & done.This story deserves to be told.Eh,Humanity?

Poor Kids.

Poor Kids.

A real challenge of maturity,We never tell children:Other people are cruel,Nasty, brutish, and shortsighted.They will remain hostile in the face,Of the "other."Be it truth,Or other people.We rarely tell them;To avoid such ugly souls -For sake of their own happiness,Or sanity.Poor Kids.

Tiny Lights, To Guide Them In The Dark.

Tiny Lights, To Guide Them In The Dark.

As ever,I can't be stopped.Only my death will do it.Words unto words unto words -Regardless of who treats me unkindly,Or stands in my path.This Urban Myth,My Legend,Isn't even halfway done.All this:Was never for you.It was for those yet unborn.Tiny lights,To guide them in the dark.

Blacklist.

Blacklist.

Have a blacklist,On my phone's shitty little notes app,Far under where I put my To Do List,Other little planning.People or organizations,Who have been crooked,Mean,Or cruel.Those who've straw-manned me,To no end.No ill intent;Just a promise to avoid them,For the rest of my life,No matter what.

“we see The water swell before a boist’rous storm.”

“we see The water swell before a boist’rous storm.”

Tempest,Turned Bastion.Coasts of our youth,Reflected in another artist's eyes.Not even my own,Sans reading it.Knowing which or whom,Each thread existed for.Me?Ugly.Born like this.Here,Would be spoken of as a wild woman,Snatching up children -In basket upon my back -To feast upon later.

Goodnight, Void #1101

Goodnight, Void #1101

Goodnight, Void.These cycles have to end.Cannot exist as this fractal echo,Shattered,Rebuilt,Smashed,Welded Back Into Shape.Bones Crushed,Powdered & Burned.Charcoal Carbon Added To Iron:Steel,Galvanized Against Rust.Better Parts Out,Than In.Bone & Iron,Have Been Cheap For A Long Time.

Infamy.

Infamy.

Nah,I get it.Infamy.Opposite of Fame.Infamous.Foil To Famous.Drop Cut.Record Scratch.Fourth Wall Hanging By One Nail.Pluck It.Wall Remains Motionless,Until driving nail into palm.Real talk?People talk shit about me all goddamn day.Gossip.Rumor Monger.So I leaned into Villain bits.

Cull Me.

Cull Me.

Cull me.For using website as name,To prove I'm real.Whilst preaching free art.Not another faceless,Vapid fuck.Gritting,Bearing teeth.Frustration at stupidity,To no proper end.From orbital satellite view,Railgun round lands off trajectory,My dissociation missing my anger,By degrees. Ha

Lines In Dust.

Lines In Dust.

Art is my last bastion.A tiny empire,Walls made up of lines,Drawn with my finger in the dust.Evidence of time.My own,Mostly.Drawing Away.Hourglasses never bothered me.Brain always fired faster - than such falling grains of sand.So here I am.Standing before infinite void,Everything after.Pitch...

The Pickup Truck Diaries: The Most Prolific Human Poet In History.

Seems grandiose, eh? This is one of the more modest, amongst the actual titles I was able to workshop, believe me! And I’d hope by now you’ve read at least one or two of these here Pickup Truck Diaries, so you are well aware already that I love being grandiose and mock-megalomaniacal for the sake...

Central Universe Science Fiction Shorts: An Update!

Campfire. Come gather 'round the campfire. Let me tell you a story. Several small ones, in fact! It started a month or two ago, when I had a bunch of hits on "Our Better Angels" via the 'ol analytics. Now, I've been running this little business for half a decade - so out of neurotic perfectionism,...

Me, Neither.

Words,Upon words.Frantic typing,Or tapping with thumbs.Endless procrastination:Converted towards new hunts.Smell of blood upon the air,From buried corpses I intend to surpass.Cackling madly under the full moon,When it's done.I am endless.Don't you ever fucking forget that.Me,Neither.

Ebbs & Flows.

My power,Ebbs & flows.Need discipline,Or the manic strength.Normal mentally ill me,Won't help.I need more than I can become,A cryptid who can become anything.Let the process of infinity,Drive us mad.I'll be waiting for you,In your dreams.Consenting to every whim.

My Drink of Choice.

Rain.Reign.Rein.Bring me back,From brink of tyranny.From subtle destruction,At the hands of self.Rain on tarps,Background music.Pour o'er me.Like armageddon.My drink of choice.Ragnarok.End me slowly,Kiss me back to life.I'm fading amongst the crowd.Vibes at last.

Deprivation Of Station.

Stage Directions For Newer Slam Poets Or Actors: Ramble Or Rant This As If You Are Mad. Your Tempo Or Poignant Pauses Should Be Thoroughly Inconsistent Throughout. Otherwise, Make It Your Own, In Your Own Way. Deprivation. I’m at a train station, quarter past nine, last in line, a paper with fine…...

Fleeing From Ignorance. \\ F.F.I.

Across these decades -Have I run out of pity?Assuming the masses ignorant,Ignoring individuals trapped within.Clever bastards;Lost amongst seas of mediocrity.Perhaps I only want those -Who can claw their way free.Building islands for themselves,To avoid suffocating.Fleeing from ignorance.

PUPPET.

I am not your plaything,To be pulled from the box. I AM TIRED OF BEING USED. Held in stasis,Left fallow. I AM NOT A PUPPET. You cannot keep taking me,Manipulating me. I AM DONE WITH YOUR PLATITUDES.

Befriend The Bees.

The least I can do,Is befriend the bees.Symbiotic existences,From an old love of gardening.Grew up in the bush.Black bears,Cougars,Coyotes,Eagles,All the norm.Rivers teeming with salmon in fall.Nature continues.Even when we don't.Humans often disgust me.But nature simply is.

Don’t Want Your Money.

Nah.Fuck Capitalism.Starving Artist as I am,Or not.I'll never sell you something,With enthusiasm.Despise shills & shilling with a passion.Myself or others.All kinds.I make my art for my own dopamine.People can take it or leave it as they want.Autonomy.No coercion.Don't want your money.

Rhyming Couplets Are Cheap These Days.

Some fools say quantity,Ensures lower quality.Always remember,Little Witches:"Those who speak in Black & White,Are subsequently doomed unto spite."Simple spell.Recite it when facing such things.Rhyming Couplets are cheap these days.Mere fraction of Baba's Witchcraft,For TIMES OF NEED.

Black Ink & Pulp.

Can't stop even if I wanted to,Remember?Just Five Years;Fingers down my throat,Trying to claw at the torrent,Just to breathe.Vomit of Words.Puking Literature.Retching Up Poetry.Never stops,Black Ink & Pulp -Regurgitated back up.This is part of my Curse.That I'll Never Be Able To Stop.

Sociopathy & Spite.

Part of me knows,Some ugly souls -Stalk almost everything I write.Having shit upon my work,Or efforts,For decades.Lost a decade of working life -To such opinions.Evil as I am;I thoroughly enjoy the idea,That they cannot keep up with my production.Going manic in their sociopathy,& spite.

Freedom From This Hollow Existence.

Times;I'd be done with it.Tried to kill myself.Failed.Gave up on ever doing it myself,After that.Looking for a good cause,To play martyr for.Utilitarianism:Allocations of my corpse.Please.End me.'Tis a mercy,Methinks.Freedom from this hollow existence.Back to the void,For eternity.

THIS IS HOW YOU DIE.

THIS.This is how the world ends.Not with your cowardly whispers.WITH A BANG.Fangs closing upon the crust,Piercing wells down to molten rock.Mantle frothing,Magma blending with blackest venom.Your toxicity is noted.Your pollution is evidence.Your crimes recorded.Extinction would be a gift,To humans...

Exponentials 2.

Is it wrong?To want to be around people -That make us shine?Allowing us to play our truest selves?1 + 1Does not always equal 2.Sometimes,Two entities colliding evokes exponentials!Keep making excuses,To be around her.But where are the people,Who want to be around me?

Shakespeare’s Corpse.

So close to Shakespeare's corpse,In Metaphor;That I can taste the salt & oil -Upon his skin.Smell the must of dust upon his skull.Running my hands -Along centuries old,Fragile strings,Mourning The Marionette Men of old.Less than a thousand to go,William.Then my Legend,Eclipses yours.
