Skeletons

The sound coming from the closet gets

Louder with each passing hour

Moans and groans bones rattle

The door knob turns but doesn’t open

The shame remains hidden behind the barrier

Evil laughter comes from the other side

Whisper of loneliness adds to the mix

Secrets line the four corners

Deception fills the cracks

Illicit cravings feed on

Pretty little liars

Seducing hungry eyes looking

To add to the over flowing riddles

Banging to get out

Reveal to the world fake smiles

And polite kisses are a smoke screen

To the true meaning behind each passionate touch

One last chance is taken for escape

Crossing a threshold to revelations

The solid panel is strong not giving way to

The pressure

For now skeletons remain securely locked away

Until the next attempt

Second Sight

She could see into the future and
knew what to expect
So when he walked out the door she didn’t
even give a shit
She anticipated he’d be leaving soon
so there were no tears or words
Matter of fact she had his bags already packed
greeted him at the door and gave him
All his shit back
the confused expression on his face had
Her laughing
he didn’t know she possessed this ability 
She could see past his bullshit 
so why didn’t she act sooner
There’s a time for everything and his time had come
looking into the future she knew she’d be strong
Envisioned her life a free dove flying above
and for him she saw his destruction
The next woman he tried to play
turned around and fed him his own retribution

In the Moment

In the moment your life-cycle changes

Embrace a new future

Instead settled for the stale past

The answers you come up with

Are not the ones you are willing

To accept

Circumstances leave no room

For guess work

In the moment time can’t be taken back

For an instant clarity is a diamond

Sparkling in the sun

Examine it closer and see it’s

Filled with inclusions

Blemishes that aren’t seen with the

Naked eye become visible in the dark

In the moment what looked good in the mirror

Evil fore shadows behind soulless eyes

Lips speak deceit buried deeply in the heart

Lure you in and trap your spirit

Still it was in the moment

That has brought you to this place

Hell Hath No Fury

You haven’t seen anything until

A woman’s heart has been f*cked with

Lightening, hail, windstorm

Are nothing compared to the

Anger in a woman who’s been

F*cked over onetime too many

Earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes

Are destructive f*ck with a woman’s

Emotions and get dusted

Tornadoes violently destroy what ever

Comes into its path

A woman’s heart is no match

For the devastation

She possesses more power than

The combined anger of nature

Hell hath no fury of a woman’s heart

That’s been stepped on

Watch the sky a storm is on the horizon!!!

Eighteen

Ephemeral life

I still remember the color of your eyes

Gift of life tear drop for each year

How soon time becomes a memory

Tomorrow is another day

Envision the smile catch in the heart

Embrace a part of me in spirit will forever live

Never letting the reminiscence of you fade

In the Doghouse

You call him to come, and he acts as if he’s deaf

Or doesn’t understand the command

Give him the task of fetching your slippers

Bring you the morning newspaper

Simple things to do…

Suddenly he’s stuck with the mentality of being two

Pat him on the head for the good deeds he performs

Swat him on the ass when he goes and pees in a corner

Rub his nose in his wrong doings

Scold him tell him he has been a bad boy

Sometimes you want to throw your hands up in frustration

Send him off to obedient school

Maybe they will be able to teach him

What you’ve been trying to

Your orders don’t

Seem to register in his brain

When he’s happy he’ll lick your face

Rub up against you showing you his affection

Then run off and get with another bitch

Goes to show he has no discrimination in his soul

 He’ll hump anything that has four legs and a tail

Here you are back to square one

What to do when a dog doesn’t listen

Pack up his doggy bone

Change the locks on his doghouse

Go out and find a dog that will obey

Your every wish and not give a

Second, look at that other bitch
