Beneath The Wheel

Saturday, December 19th, 2009

I lay prone, dri­ven down by my col­lec­tive sins.

I try to cry
As I lay tied from my ankles to my thighs.

My skin has been flayed from my body and I moan in supreme pain.

I am exposed


Hooded peo­ple walk past, their faces shrouded in shadow.

Some laugh, oth­ers shake their heads, as if in judgment…

Some cry… One per­son approaches me, I think it is a woman.

She lays a yel­low rose upon my chest and one tear rolls down her cheek
Who she was I can­not guess

She gets up her body shak­ing as in great pain and rejoins the procession…


Is there mercy in this world I ask my self, Confused.

No, Only ret­ri­bu­tion! There is no such thing as mercy in this world.


The pro­ces­sion ends. A strange wind blows, caress­ing my exposed nerve endings.

I moan, I have never felt such pain before. I was about to pass out when I heard this rum­bling, deep it sounds, the earth beneath me shudders.

Dispite the pain I raise my head slightly and see this huge wheel of rock rolling towards me.

I scream, “What mad­ness is this?” “What is my crime?”


It rum­bled, “I am the wheel of truth, ret­ri­bu­tion and jus­tice; I have been called many things,

I was forged in magma when the earth was young and given intel­li­gence by the divine one.
I judge and you have been exposed. Your sins are your own. That is why you have been flayed down to sinew and bone.”


You are a lucky Human! For my judg­ment gives a chance at rebirth. The Devine one’s jus­tice is eter­nal, invi­o­late and terse.

The wheel approached. I strug­gled to move but I could not. I pan­icked as the wheel stopped at my feet… Be ready Human, my judg­ment is pain.


It rolled over my feet and I could hear the bones snap like twigs in a sum­mer storm

Up it rolled to my femur and it shat­tered like chrys­tal glass dropped by a care­less hand,

On it rolled, I could no longer feel the pain. The human body can take so much and then it ignites in flame.

It paused at my chest. Its voice almost a caress. Was their pas­sion there?

Good­bye Human…. Then their was Darkness…/p>


I did not awake. I sud­denly became con­scious. I did not have a body I was sim­ply aware.

In the dark­ness, beams of light pranced back and forth, laugh­ing at my confusion.

Where am I, who am I… I cried! One light approached me and said you are pure energy New One!

What? “You are the energy the almighty calls upon when deeds need doing. You will learn New One. Oh yes, you will learn… And after you have served your time, into the eter­nal embrace of the sublime.”

Con­fused… I heard a gen­tle voice call­ing me… And I fol­lowed it.

Con­tent.

Apocalytic Stew

Apoca­lyp­tic Stew

Phase
Shift
Crazed
Rift

Argent
Black­ness
Cogent
Confess

Vicious dogs
Mangy mutts
Pinup hogs
Vile sluts

Some fallen Priests
Are eying cock
A banker’s feast
A scat­tered flock

All wounded souls here
Spin the wheel of time
No one can see clear
Rea­sons con­fused crime

Cen­ter­folds are singing
A crass and tune­less song
Demon wasps are sting­ing
The poi­soned malaise strong

Who truly can remem­ber
When it all came tum­bling down
That dark day in Novem­ber
We all wore the jester’s crown

Another failed suicide attempt

Thursday, December 17th, 2009

My broth­ers hear the crash and break the door down… Absurdly, I men­tally curse Home Depot and their cheap fuck­ing doors. So there I am with a belt around my neck and the entire drop ceil­ing strewed about the room. I fuck­ing hate failed sui­cide attempts. I mean what can you say, “Whoops?” It’s like get­ting caught by your future ex-wife with your sweat pants draped about your ankles wax­ing your car­rot to the Fredrick’s of Hol­ly­wood web site. That has hap­pened to you, right? Please say yes.

I briefly won­der how woman mas­tur­bate. Prob­a­bly with envi­ron­men­tally friendly solar pow­ered dil­dos. I hate Women.

So my older Bro says, “Dick­weed, stick with drink­ing your­self to death, suits your style.” Gotta love my Brother.

So I decide to go out­side, which is a feat in itself because I haven’t left my room in about three months. I find most peo­ple bor­ing — I really hate rub­bing elbows with the fuck­ers. I leave the belt around my neck; I fig­ure maybe I can pass it off as some kind of new sar­to­r­ial style.

I see the mail­man and I was going to tell him to stop deliv­er­ing me mail, I don’t open the fuck­ers– what’s the point. But, I fig­ured he worked for the Post Office and there­fore was in his own pri­vate hell.

So I make it to the over­pass, beneath me is the New Jer­sey Turn­pike. I read some­where; it was one of the most trav­eled roads in the US. I watched the social insects whiz by. I dig the sound. The World is full of songs; you just have to know how to listen.

I notice the inward curv­ing fence and it pisses me off. (I’m always pissed) I mean it’s not like I can’t get some C4 and blow a whole in the sucker.

I know they are try­ing to stop jumpers. Not because they care about human life, they don’t want you fuck­ing with traf­fic. I once saw a jumper splat­tered like sea gull shit on the asphalt. Peo­ple were get­ting out of their cars and kick­ing the dead fucker say­ing shit like:

I got a mas­sage in 30 min­utes I’m late because of you dead shit”

I have a two hour win­dow to cheat on my hus­band and fuck Ted the insur­ance man”

And my per­sonal favorite:

Some­one scrape this dead fucker off the road”

So I mosey down to the local Dot Head store. What’s his name is at the counter. Cool dude but he has far too many con­so­nants in his name. Hence “What’s his name?” Now, he has this pet Ana­conda who he loves, so I ask him if he has any new pic­tures and his eyes light up and says: “I’ll be right back.” He runs to the back room and I run to chest freezer where­upon I start stuff­ing frozen Ice cream sand­wiches down by pants and in my pock­ets. I love steal­ing shit and I love Ice cream sandwiches.

So he comes back and starts show­ing me the pic­tures of his pet snake and in the mean­time my balls are freez­ing from the frozen Ice Cream sand­wiches stuffed in there and let’s face it, who needs frozen balls.

I give him a fake smile and I split and start eat­ing my plun­der. Oh yea, then I went home.

A Conversation with God

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

Photobucket

To be or not to be” Any of you dudes out here truly know what ques­tion the Bard asks?
Well, not many peo­ple think about mor­tal­ity. Don’t blame them.
Back to “The Bard” six words that defines the nature or essence of our existence.

I am the only jerk off, I think, who will call God a Dick­weed! Just did it, not smited yet, (guess that comes later)

Any­way, I go to Heaven, and there is God, drool­ing and snor­ing on his recliner, remote on the floor, a Hus­tler mag on his lap.

So I wake the fucker up.

God, wake the fuck up, your “Cre­ation” is in dire need of your omnipo­tent services.”

Well, the fuck snores away, well on the 7th day he rested. I did not take that to mean a fuck­ing per­ma­nent vaca­tion. I am forced to slap his fuck­ing noggin!

Well, I did and he finally wakes up, thun­der, light­ning the whole show!

The Archangels have blades drawn on my throat and even those fag­got Cherubs are bit­ing my ass. Cause I pissed him off.

Poet”, he says, as he wipes the droll from his lips, “did I not kill you? Or, at the very least, it has to be on my things to do list.”

Well, that did not give me a warm and fuzzy.

God, Ulti­mate Dude of Dudes, A lit­tle help is needed on earth.”

Poet! Ass­hole, The only rea­son you exist is because you are a funny fuck!
Don’t push it BABE!” “And, being omnipo­tent, I bequeathed, free will upon ye. Which, ulti­mately means…You’re on your own.”

God! Alpha and Omega, hear me out Dude. I under­stand the free will con­cept; but, maybe some guid­ance, a mir­a­cle here and there.”

It’s a mir­a­cle you are still alive!”

“I know God, Emperor of all Cre­ation, I am an ass­hole, freely given. But how bout some mir­a­cles! Maybe cure every child suf­fer­ing from can­cer under… say 12?”

Must have struck a chord, because I could see his Divin­ity thinking.

I took the time to sur­rep­ti­tiously kick one of those fag­got bit­ing Cherubs in the groin. I swear if God was not there I would have kicked all those lit­tle fuck’s asses

Poet, I see your point. But I hes­i­tate to inter­fere with Human­ity. Free Will I have ordained”

I dig it, Big Chief of the Uni­verse, But Satan’s run­ning ram­pant on earth, war, dis­ease, famine and Repub­li­cans have been run­ning the show!”

REPUBLICANS!!!!!!” I could see the big guy was upset; how­ever, he continued.

“I see your plight Poet, but free will rules the day. I can not inter­fere and that is final!”

God, head hon­cho, think I can get in to see JC?”

Poet, you are very close to being dead! get out of here. You are not com­ing here any­way!” “Nor can you expect an invi­ta­tion in the future.”

See­ing that I was out­num­bered, and the fact that he was right.…and.…. God did not give a fuck. I was ush­ered, not too kindly, I might add, from Heaven, And Poof I am here.

Gee, aren’t you lucky. Well, think­ing of a way I can cru­cify myself. Got the wood, know I can nail my left hand to the cross, the prob­lem is hav­ing, said, left hand nailed, I am unable to nail my right hand to the cross! Which requires me to plea for help!

Ring.….…..

Hello” “Ehhh.….Don, I need a hand.“
“Poet…watts up, Dude!”
“Don, I need a hand.”

What?“
“I am try­ing to cru­cify myself and I need a hand.”

Christ, Poet are you into one of your to be or not to be moods?” “Fuck you!” Click.….

dial tone…

Well.…That IS the question

Crossroads

Screams

Demonic

Drown­ing out heav­enly choir.

Cherubs

Laugh­ing

Crea­tures of despair

Singing



Armed only with smirk and pain.

I sit and wait

I already know my fate

My guardian whis­pers in ter­ri­fied pleading

It’s not too late”



Seek­ing comfort

I com­fort.

Want­ing relief

I relieve

Need­ing some­one to catch my tears

I find I can no longer cry.

Go! And sal­vage the salvageable”

Its screams sucked down by Newton’s insight



At the Crossroads

No color

Bat­tle­ship grey

Tis a place

No one need be



I am no longer

A Man

But a cor­us­cat­ing sem­blance of

For­got­ten dreams

Trans­par­ent

My essence

Dis­played

Like a cheap dime store man­nequin



One approaches

Glides

Not deign­ing to step

Another

Flut­ters down from angry heaven

Two crea­tures of absolute

Good

Evil

They Vie

Take my path” they cry

Why?



Mozart and Wagner

Hess and

Cer­vantes

Approach

Enter

The debate

Cer­vantes speaks

Take nei­ther left nor right!”

Heed Don Quixote’s quest”

Fight the windmill.”

There will you find”

Heart and soul’s true test.”



I cannot

Smile

Wince is all

I can

Do

At the Crossroads

A myr­iad of paths

Good and Evil

Cry col­lec­tive disbelief

As they merge and blend into

Log­i­cal incon­sis­tency



Pock marked Mozart

Catches my sight­less eye

Only through music”

Can”

The heart be sung.”



I

Try

To dust off the pain

But it is alloyed

Fused with my heart

I stand

Know­ing my last act

Will be

Defi­ance

But

One last song

I need to

sing

Dancing around the edges

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

So I am at the Had­don­field Speed line’s park­ing lot and this chick has my dick in her mouth. I’m wax­ing philo­soph­i­cal watch­ing the social insects scurry to their next task.

I won­der what my future ex-wife is mak­ing for dinner.”

My future ex-girlfriend looks up with fawn­ing eyes and asks “How is it?”

I blurt out “Meatloaf!”

What?

Don’t talk with your mouth full!”

I love that line when I’m get­ting a blowjob and I never miss an oppor­tu­nity to use it, much to the dis­may of the blower. It is a bad blowjob. There are two schools of thought on “The Blowjob” One states: “there is no such thing as a bad blowjob”, the other, is the dialec­tic antithe­sis of the first pos­tu­late, “There is! because I have been the recip­i­ent of far too many”

I won­der if it would be push­ing things if I left a “How too” Blowjob sex video on the front seat when she drops me off around the cor­ner from my future ex-house.

My mind wan­ders back to the tableau before me and I start count­ing the insects who are wear­ing sneaks. Footwear was never a big deal to me but when you’re get­ting a bad blowjob, well, Ya got to think of some­thing besides meatloaf.

So I have a pop­u­la­tion sam­ple of about 200 insects and a 45% sneaker wear­ing rate with a stan­dard devi­a­tion of about .5.

Moan”… “Moan”

Oh yea, I’m drop­ping a few well placed moans for the chick’s ego stroke. You can never tell a chick that she gives bad blowjobs; in fact you can never tell a chick any­thing neg­a­tive because they take that shit per­sonal. A babe can tell a man he sucks at eat­ing pussy and the dude could care less. Okay, he might say: “Wash that stench pit and maybe then I could take off my res­pi­ra­tor and actu­ally eat it Bitch!” But that would be it. He’ll go back to count­ing sneak­ers or think­ing of meat­loaf, whatever.

Now if you tell a chick that shit she would plot your emo­tional destruc­tion. Chicks are the Han­ni­bal Lecters of emo­tional manip­u­la­tion and ulti­mate mind fuck. Yea, you’re pretty well doomed when you piss a chick off.

She comes up for air and I could tell she was about to say some­thing stu­pid like: “I love you”

I don’t give her the chance.

I push her head back down on my rod: “Don’t talk with your mouth full.”

Back to the sneak­ers, I think I’m on to some­thing, I’m pretty sure I’m close to a Uni­ver­sal Truth. Uni­ver­sal Truths have been fuck­ing with my head ever since I was a kid. I can never nail the suckers.

I’m always danc­ing around the edges.

She gets up and smiles… I smile back. I won­der if our smiles are real smiles. I won­der if I am danc­ing around another Uni­ver­sal Truth.

Have to get home babe, I have to cook for my future ex-Husband and my gay son is home from school.”

She starts her car and holds my hand dur­ing the short trip. She is squeez­ing my hand like a tea bag try­ing to get as much of my essence as she can.

Call me Babe!”

I promised I would.

As I get out of her car an old lady shakes her head.

She knows I’m sling­ing dick.

I notice how disheveled the cor­ner prop­erty is since the pre­vi­ous owner got busted for insur­ance fraud.

I turn the cor­ner and my future old lady is walk­ing my future ex-dog argu­ing with my future ex-Son

Some­thing about beer money.

She sees me.

Her smile is a dis­guised wince; she knows I’m sling­ing dick too.

What do you want for dinner?”

Meat­loaf “I blurt out.

I walk up my future ex-driveway,

I’m pretty sure there is a Uni­ver­sal Truth here; I’m always danc­ing around the edges.

Sad Girl

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

I see your hid­den tears

Wrapped up in inner confusion.

I see your dreams and fears

Awash

Aban­doned

Amid the cheer of illusion.


Life assaults you

Yet, you fight

So pre­cious you are

Filled with all in which I delight

In you I find the light

That casts away the darkness

You still the pain

I

Always feel.

The joy…

I need.


You are the crys­tal­lized snowflake

The chill of a win­ter dawn.

The sooth­ing caress of sunlight

You heal this soul Oh so torn.


You are the unan­swered phone call

The silence that greets my cries

Oh unre­lent­ing sadness

Yet I try..

And try.

You are all…

all
I need

The Last Poet #3

Saturday, December 12th, 2009

My scream painted sin

Across the sum­mer sky

The world

Wob­bled on its axis

Paused

Held its breath



The trees trembled

Sam­son knelt before me

And pre­pared to die

Scarred Man” he began

His lips quivering

They came in the night”

The Cho­rus and I drew sword”

”She bade us hold”

And left with them”

His hands twisted in rage and shame

Yes

He would die for her



I let him live

My breaths came in ragged gasps

Her voice

Sud­denly

Came to me

As it had for three years now

And my eyes squeezed

In vain

To stem the tears

That washed my scarred face



She was alive!

I moved to my horse

Sam­son and other mem­bers of the Chorus

Eyes gleamed

And fol­lowed

Their blood lust

Pal­pa­ble

I winced



Men who

Once coaxed

Beauty

And Life

From Dirt

Would become

What I have always been

The enemy had much

To answer for.



“Samson”

Dou­ble the guard”

And pre­pare to move”

It was as if I struck him

But…”

I never gave orders twice



My horse wheeled

As I method­i­cally approached the castle

My body was strewed with arrows

I couldn’t die

Until she told me

I could

The berserker was upon me

My sword screamed

And Sang

In the key of rage.

My blade glowed incandescent

Its white fire

Unquench­able

Blood hissed and splattered

My hated essence blazed



Who would dare touch her?

Those who stood before me

Died

The rest fled



Three witch word singers

Hurled arcane verse

At me

Just before there heads

Came to rest on the floor



I stormed the room that I knew held her

Five men died

Quickly

There

She was

The Last Poet and a Word Mage

Were engaged

In eldritch incantations

Her hands were bound

Imped­ing her

From verse flow



He was not

Nor could he ever

Be

A match for her

I almost laughed.

But decided to kill him

Instead



The Word Mage eye’s widened

Hurled

Death verse at me

His words crum­bled and howled

In use­less fury

I am already dead fool”

I flung the Word Mage out the window

And watched

As his body tumbled

Curs­ing

That I could not hurt him

More.



I gath­ered her in my arms

You know

You really have to stop doing that”

She curled up in my arms

And the world was

Once again

Tol­er­a­ble

Hope

Was

Alive



A bird sang

Silvan’s Retreat

Saturday, December 12th, 2009

As the bright Suns of sum­mer fade

And the incan­des­cent greens of sweet Silvan

Fade to brown

Sil­van retreats



The trees yawn

Prepar­ing for sleep

Release their children

Mother breeze envelopes them

In sigh­ing heartache

And caress them in majes­tic dance

To the for­est floor

Hush my children

Sleep the sleep of death”



The win­ter of my life approaches

The chill of approach­ing mortality

Grips my Soul

I no longer hold on to yesterday

I dis­miss it fondly

Telling mem­o­ries to roam free

And seek suc­cor from dreams



The Soul fights

But years never lie

But what of Love?

Was it only the Poet’s song?

Was it only a dream?”



Lady Death approaches

And embraces me

In cold warmth

Hush Child”

Time to take another journey”

Your wars are over”

Hush now”

Hush”

The Scarred Man (The Last Poet #2)

Friday, December 11th, 2009

I stran­gled the last Wolf

It had a curi­ous look on its face

When it died

No prob­lem dude, it just Bidness”


I had become a weapon

For her

She gath­ered the wounded and urged them forward.

I stared at my hands

Know­ing they would never be clean again


Scarred man, we must move!”

And the wounded who can’t be moved?”

There is no time for tears!”

Her eyes flashed crimson

I heard thun­der and the gongs of war.

You have gath­ered too many who will feed and pro­tect them?”

You will”

She danced away


I gath­ered the mor­tally wounded child in my arms

As his Mother shouted barbs of hate

To that sadis­tic God

Who pre­tended he loved

Us


I sang a an old lul­laby just before

I snapped his neck

His Mother wailed

And was dragged away


I killed the remain­ing mor­tally wounded

We were hunted

The Wolfs were the first wave

There will be others

More hor­ri­ble creatures.


She was right

She was always right

No time for tears.

I left the killing field and entered

The for­est

She was efficient

She already set up camp


Scarred Man, we need food”

I wanted to scream and say

No More!”

I sup­pose you will have me stop the Sun in its tracks and part the waters next?”

No… food is all that is required at this moment”

I could not deny her

She knew

We were intri­cately linked

She was Hope

I was Death


I counted the mouths

And went to hunt

She was paradox

She saved life

And

Took the Death of others

To her

In her

Her strength

Hum­bled me


We must save who we can”

But, too many will die”

Before this is over.


The Death dreams occurred

Every night now

I won­dered what form it would take

When it came for me.


I brought down an eight point Stag
