~My Little Lightning Bolt~

They don't understand her
Like I understand her
Electrifying bright
Firing in the night
Feeling that thunderclap
Deafening blasting clap
Type-cast as excessive
Hard-assed & expressive
Covering up those ears
Concealing up those eyes
They don't understand her
Like I understand her...

~Black Widow~

Proudly wandering into her web of deceit
He was pondering love. She was ready to eat
She was steadfast in grip for the sinking of teeth
Alas, the blood dripped, therefore accepting defeat

Hour glass figure in her dress colored crimson
Stiffness & rigor still obsessed with this vixen
Silk spinning frantic, he embraces the villain
It's killing room panic. Her prey has been bitten

~The Portico~

The hum of cicadas
On a summer's eve
In autumn guise
A deep inhale
Cherry red burns
A deep exhale
Ashy plume of fumes
Feeling contentment
Alone yet not lonely
Solid in my solitary
Exiling myself
From the virulent
Mouths spewing rancor
Cherishing the tranquility
Perched peacefully
Under the portico

-

Sorely lacking in the means for plane, train, or automobile
No luxury ticket to a far-off tropical Paradiso
I wish to travel in my mind to a heavenly surreal
Away from hopeless wraiths who appease to feed their ego

~Soup Du Jour~

Banshee like howling
Hurled bowl of tomato soup
Biting the tongue hurts

-

~Glutton For Punishment~

Screeching on the lawn
Spiderweb cracked windshield
How many red flags? 🚩

-

~Shipping Off To Detox~

Pink Floyd's "Hey You" plays
DEFCON One panic attack
I'm here with you, babe

-

~911~

Five cruisers outside
Bloody handprints in the shower
Eviction notice

-

~Partying By Myself... Again~

The bathroom door's locked
Blood on the Queens face
So high yet so low...

-

~ Where Is The Narcan?~

Face down on the tile
Acrid smoke lingers in air
He's not my hero...
