Consider this...breathing
A writer writes and as he does...he breathes. The inhale and exhale of the moments "air". Describing what he sees, what he feels...even sometimes, what he wants...what he desires. Every word has meaning. Every word has "breath" or "spirit". Every word has life.
To reread a piece is to relive it. Every line that was meant for you, for me...for us. Comes back sharp and clear as though it were written yesterday. When pieces are true...they are timeless and formless. They fit everywhere and they fit nowhere. They are specific and vague. One word means something and the other is meant to have no meaning at all. The "bi-polar" sessions of a writer are honest even when he's confused...like now ;-)
Compiling my pieces for my book has taken me down a memory lane of drastic emotional extremes. I feel what I've written and the memory of each breath still has life. Still has meaning and form. Something I know will always be true. Reading them again brings me the vivid imagery I was trying to recreate through verse and most all of them dealt with intensity and passion. Between yesterday and today I have visited Bahrain, Texas, Pier 17, Gelston Ave and of course...where I am now. There is so much life in what one writes. If it is honest...it will live forever...

Into Dust...
Still falling Breathless and on again Inside today Inside me today Around broken in two Til your eyes share into dust Like two strangers turning into dust Til my hand shook with the weight of fear I could possibly be fading Or have something more to gain I could feel myself growing colder I could feel myself under your fate Under your fate It was you, breathless and torn I could feel my eyes turning into dust Into strangers, turning into dust Turning into dust Turning into dust

Angustia...
He bleeds and pleads for the bountiful seeds that come from pain and pleasure
The ripping of his skin, the indulgence in his sin
Watching as she groans with pleasure and pain from the deep
(To keep?...no)
Body heat keeps him warm tonight. His delight?
Infatuation through penetration
(You will never be the same again)
I handle with care as I breath in your air of lust and fury
Feeling your heart beating faster on my chest as I do my best to give
Show me your strength, take inside my length of passion that knows no bounds
Shout my name in hunger pain that shatters my very soul...
(until I am yours)

Written 2/28/2010 ;-)
Damn...them creepers sure do love to prey on them sleepers. But are they really sleepers or creepers themselves...or are they the keepers of unsuspecting creepers that creep as they sleep and reap on the cheap. Time knows how it goes to reveal the hoes that lie in the throws of empty flows...and yet I chose ;-) Tick tock tick tock You dig?
Almost forgot about this one...lol
Almost forgot about this one...lol

Monster - A Poem by Moe
Rusted feathered claws as hands
Roams the desert, deserted lands
His eyes held low so he won't see
"All of these people looking at me"
His skin is thick but easy to tear
Charred and burned, uneasy to wear
Looks up to heaven as if to say
"Why, oh Lord have you made me this way?"
My touch is soft but can cause an infection
My voice will receive but is apt for rejection
My eyes can find love in the simplest of souls
But can also see ugly in those very same holes
My choices they vary from tender to flame
Blue, hazel or green, it's never the same
Built by blood and flesh from his bone
A child at heart in a man fully grown
Eager to fly and eager to rest
Eager to beat down the pain in his chest
That all his internals, from black go to white
And when it is dark, the colors made right
The lines in his hands are the same on his face
From hiding so much, these lines have found place
Now to form roads for tears yet to flow
This monster cries out...to let the world know

Aleluya
"tu fe fayo
y te traisiono
desnuda ella te atrapo
su luz y su belleza te agararon
y te ato a la silla de tu amor
rompio tu trono y te corto
te corto el pelo de tu fuerza y...aleluya
lo mejor de ti
y te traisiono
desnuda ella te atrapo
su luz y su belleza te agararon
y te ato a la silla de tu amor
rompio tu trono y te corto
te corto el pelo de tu fuerza y...aleluya
lo mejor de ti
quise sentir no senti
no te menti y siempre fui sincero
y aunque al final
todo fue mal
estoy cantando esta cancion
que suena casi...aleluya"
Somewhere between this song, these candles and this wine...
There is an answer to the riddle of excess
The place where saint and sinner meet to talk about their day
Before their war begins again
The place where lovers come to share a meal
Before they burn it off with passion
The place where God and the devil met
Before that tree was placed in the garden...
The place between the image and his desire made whole
Before his tounge meets her skin...
The place between the image and his desire made whole
Before his tounge meets her skin...
Aleluya...

What Dreams Can Say...
You know for a long time I questioned myself. I wondered how I could be so wrong. How I could go down a road towards a life that would have been impossible for me to bear. How could I have been so mistaken in my choice? It scared me to even think to choose again and made me even doubt the choices I've made up to that point. Yet after awhile I realized something. Everything I knew told me the situation was f*cked up. Everything inside me understood how difficult that road would be but the pure love I felt drove me towards determination in the face of illogic. I can't be ashamed of that and I can't say I was wrong. I knew what I had and I was willing to bear it because I thought that drive was being reciprocated. I thought things would change but they never did. In this, I was delusional. Once my delusion became too fantastic even for "love"...it was time to cut my losses. Folks, I have seen love work miracles. I have seen love smooth out edges and change the heart into something both can share. Except that these miracles only work for those that are willing and those that are willing will see the fruit of it...if they are willing to work at it.
Last night was one of those nights that leave the awakened in silent thought. I sit here alone wondering what the hell happened and why. Why did I feel a certain presence and why did I hate the fact it was there? Folks, what you do in dreams is for you. When you have the ability to determine what course your dream will take, it is a true manifestation of one's desire and my desire last night?...was to finally be left alone by this thing.
The man I was...the man I am...one in the same. Now I will only share myself with those I deem worthy of such a man...even in my dreams.
