OF COCKS AND ROACHES
**************************
Seven in the morning,
(I havn't slept,
all night)...
limbs falling apart,
eyes, a
maddening red...
I fail to fall
into slumber...
each blink
of heavy eyelids,
a tick in the clock...
a constant reminder,
of the paranoiac
conversations 'tween
my cock
and my roaches...

HUNGER

My hunger,
insatiable,
like the fire
in your soul...
eats me up...
much like
the heat
beween your legs...

? OR NOT KNOWING WHAT YOU WANT

nothing is?
Nothing is!

4:40 A.M

4:40 A.M,
Lying beside
my ex-roomie
(I now live alone)...

Whiskey in
our bellies...
and I,
chasing sleep
(Ne'er coming
like an elusive lover...
yet to be kissed)...

My landlord's
water pump
hums
in the background...

Water drips,
counting the seconds
passing by...

My dick feels spent,
after five, of a day's orgasms..
And yet,
in my soul,
a hole so big...
where there
should have been you...

MANNEQUIN

Neon,
behind me...

I sit at
the iron steps,
that lead to
my friends'...
All asleep.

1 A.M and
I can't seem
to bring myself,
bring myself to sleep...

My recenly
shaved head glows,
an iridescent moon
(invisible to me).

Birds of thought,
chained down by
the gravity of your situation...

Somewhere
across the border,
that ties my hands
behind me...
a silent shout
pierces my night...

You...
You...
Everything to me...
Me...
A mannequin,
wishing it had wings...

TO AN UNTIMELY DEATH

Insects,

on the wall...

Moving,

like shifting writing,

making sentences

that mean nothing...

Fully clothed

(Three in the morning)...

Seated on my

seat of judgement

in the loo...

Against

the wet tile,

I finally crushed one

To an untimely death...
