The writings of Oddpoet

Poetry that bleeds, screams and never sleeps

I write. Oh yea, I was a crack baby and I’ve lived an inter­est­ing life. I’ve been a CIA oper­a­tive and have been involved with some of more vile actions and crimes Amer­ica has prop­a­gated against the world, in the name of free­dom and apple pie of course. I have served secretly in var­i­ous high level post for numer­ous Pres­i­dents. I was President’s Regan’s trav­el­ing brain where I was called upon to make him look sen­tient on his vis­its to for­eign dig­ni­taries. I was chief joke teller for Pres­i­dent Bush and was respon­si­ble for mas­sag­ing Vice pres­i­dent Dick Cheney’s heart every time it stopped beat­ing. Recently I was charged with pro­vid­ing coke, woman and lit­tle boys to mem­bers of Con­gress so Pres­i­dent Obama could get his Heath care agenda passed.

Please do not think me pre­sump­tu­ous in that I believe any­one would care or read. The act is enough, yet, much like our chil­dren we love to show them off, even if they are ugly. I write a vari­ety of gen­res, styles and forms. I love sto­ries and I’m con­stantly mak­ing them up in my head. Most never see the light of day. I’m dark by dis­po­si­tion and incli­na­tion though I do see the lighter side of things. I arrived at writ­ing poetry via song writ­ing, lyrics specif­i­cally. I enjoy the free­dom that poetry offers.

I am an activist at heart though you will sel­dom see me demon­strat­ing. I despise injus­tice and despite my pes­simistic take on some sub­jects I believe this world could be a bet­ter place, but only if we have the balls to change it.

I live in New Jer­sey. I have two estranged chil­dren, two very strange ex-wife’s and a dog I never see. Man, I miss the dog.
