Reflections (re post)

Gazing through the glass

Headlights
Tail lights

Screeching tires
Instant silence

Tailpipe vapor hanging in the cold still air
Sparkling snow on frozen unforgiving ground

In an instant
World upside down

Memories flooding
Overwhelming darkness

Rushing heartbeat
Thoughts only of what used to be

Reflecting
Time standing still

Past
Present
Future
All staring back

Silent tears falling
Scars forming on a shattered heart

Lost
Speechless
Another unhappy ending

Alone
Only my reflection staring back in the glass…

Staring

Staring down the barrel
Trigger mine to pull

So many questions
No answers to be found

Wore out the path
Dizzy from round and round

Unable to stand
Unwilling to fall

Lost
Trapped

Swirling visions
Screaming voices
Laughing eyes
Broken dreams stabbing

Only one way out

Liquid gun
Pulling the trigger

Staggering happily as the whiskey regains control

Bang!!! bang!!!

Goodnight reality
Hello again to drunk and happy…

Groovy

Psssttt

Hey man

Yeah you

Come over here

Come on come on I ain’t got all day

Now then what you want?

What do you need?

And if I ain’t got it

I’ll get it straight away

Hesitation

Pondering

Yeah man got any groovy grass?

I need to zone for a few hours

Stutter

Stammer

Lot’s of pocket checking

Uh… seems I am fresh out

But you can get it straight away

You said so yourself

Nope sorry

Can’t help

All sold out of that

But I have got lots of other stuff

Shots

Pills

Liquids

Uppers

Downers

Twisteds

Tangles

From hearing things

To hearing nothing at all

Wobbly knees

Twitching eyes

And a host of possibly life threatening side effects

So man what you need?

Nothing man

You got nothing I need

I just wanted some

Not a lot

But more that a little bit

So sorry, I don’t want all that man-made shit

I was just looking for a dude

The man

The cat with all the groovy grass…

Remember Your Words?

Remember your words?

The ones you spoke that August day

The promise you made

The one to be my spirit guide

To lift me up

To fix me up

To fill the hollow inside

Remember your words?

The ones you spoke that December day

The promise you made

The one to stand by my side

The one where you said

I am different

Not like the rest

I will never leave

Remember your words?

I will

Until my last dying breath…

Lost

In ink

Permanent

Every little thought filling the screen

Releasing
Venting
Showing every scar
Open mind for all to see

Anger
Love
Depression
Suicide
Darkness
Digging into the unforgettable past

Twisting words
Hiding meanings
Sacred bonds
Shared agony
Bruises faded yet never healing

Bottle calling
Only temporary soothing

Loving but halfheartedly
Always afraid of tomorrows next tragedy

Trapped
Broken wings
Reaching out
Slippery hands
Falling
Never landing

Always wanting
Constant struggling
Uneasy laughing
Thorny path
No direction
Outdated crumpled map
Wandering in circles

Just lost…

Epic

I want something epic

On Paper

My creation

Grand

Over the top

Something historical

Etched forever on the tongues of the masses

I want something epic

Blaring

Hypnotic

Bold yet translucent

I wanted something epic

All I got was this short lousy poem…

Chocolate

In chocolate
Covered head to toe

Poured
Drizzled
Dripped
A little extra in the naughty places

Nibbling
Licking
Sucking
Biting
Tasting every delicious inch

Arching
Writhing
Bucking
Muscles locking
Body convulsing
Twitching in passion

In chocolate
Grinning ear to ear
Whispering softly
Almost growling

Lie back…

It’s my turn my dear…

Drenched

Drenched in sorrow

Kneeling

Slumping

No longer able to stand

Now crumpled

Face down

Only half alive

Hands wringing

Shallow breaths

Conserving near spent energy

A grin creeping

Fading

And returning again

Eyes rolling down

Out of body

Witnessing

Hands wringing

Tainted toxic limbs

Twisted fingers

Stained hands

Unbearable guilty conscience

Drenched in sweat

Drenched in blood

Returning to reality

Slow

Easy

No rush

Not willing

Not yet ready

To face

The magnitude of the crine I have committed…

Magic Hat

I have a magic hat
Ready to grant every wish

Think of a fantasy
Naughty or nice

Wiggle your fingers
Reach on in

Take a gamble
Roll the dice
Wrap your thoughts around something nice

Unleash what’s bottled up inside
Does not matter what’s on your mind

Slow and easy
Fast or hard
Saucy things not spoken of

Licking and sucking
Tickles or bites
Maybe just going till morning light

Feathers or chains
Submissive or dominating
Just unlock your mind

Be creative
Close your eyes
Grab hold
Just make a wish

I have a magic hat

Reach in

Guaranteed no matter what you pick

In the end

You will be left breathless…
