Die Positivität ist das Opium des Volkes, aber der Spott ist das Opium der Verrückten

Gasoline Winter Sonnet

with the scent o’ berries, too; smudged on smoky sidewalk chalk. Chalk it up to moonlit blues, choking me up harshly soft. Chatter dead is better than dead silence wand’ring wolfen streets on urban hills that never bend & shatters into icy neon. Moonlight full o’ foggy capes, follow me through thin-black japes’ scarecrow boughs […]

The HAND (an excerpt from The Economicon)

I. You think you’re safe from the HAND. You’re wrong. Nobody can ‘scape its righteous wrath. We are mere flesh bags with brains full o’ insects compared to our deductive master.

Please rest, bloody heart. ..to kill ‘nother […]

Peppermint Pink Sonnet

Accompanying music. Light that leads me through the blizzard, white in flakes, such snuggled blankets.

Red lights warn you: stop & breathe, […]
