I have a stack of vintage photographs
What used to be called french postcards Naughty women in black and white and sepia Heavenly creatures with sultry curves and dead eyes Did those old pictureboxes truly take their souls? Trapped on paper and tin Held there as they fade Until only crumbles of paper and dusty ink last In the cigar box under my bed

If words were like raindrops
Noah's flood would only half approach The untamed longing in my heart To please my gentle lover She who whispers in tender carresses Inspiration Yet I drown sometimes when cruel mistress she becomes Trying to swallow around words Being torn to shreds by emotion I cannot convey Until I lie in broken sharded sanity Weeping ink and sobbing sonnets A broken battered beloved Yet still I shall crawl On hand and knee to worship at her feet For she is inspiration My muse who stands hidden A ghost in my shadow Brave daughter of memory thy name is Calliope

I am madness
A screaming soulborn lost boy Genderfucking anarchist with wild eyes I hide it Carefully conceal it With gentlemanly ways and dark glasses With expressive hands and 1930s grace I am the son of my grandfather The laughing trickster running from growing up But desperately wanting to grow old Saving pennies in a jar For a life I think I'll never live But embracing the worse of Pandora's curses I hope

Mr Wilde just so you know
You still make young men feel Untethered by the limitations of rigid societal obligation You tell us we lay in the gutter But you implore to stare at the stars Well in paltry words and feeble phrases I reach grasping at ink dark eternity Where crystalline brilliance twinkles Fighting impending madness by embracing it And laughing in my shallowness Still your words delight Pervasive comprehensible dribble But deliciously decadent in thought Let me hide my paintings so I may live forever Wrapped up in a serenity of words

I write in the shower
At 3 in the morning Because I can't sleep Little kids markers that wipe off the wall That bleed from the spray coming off me Sometimes I wear my clothes Family doesn't ask anymore Quite frankly don't want to know It's hard to explain but it's nice A way to let out angry jumble Wash it down the drain Works better then scribbling on envelopes With a pen run dry

Is it still madness
Is it still madness to follow broken memories
Tainted by nostalgia for a world that never was To walk in a hall of ghosts and call them friends So many lost to cruel Father time And you wonder are you lost too For surely you are here
