Concrete Poem
Blood
running
down
my knuckles.
My feet embedded with glass.

moments like this proves to me that not only that
hell is real
But that you don’t have to die to go there.
I bathe in the

I walk away
Through a g

Leaving my f

Staring
at my reflection
In the
dark skies
A thunderbolt
Silhouettes my soul
Over a small
crowded town
Of bitter witnesses.

Found Poem
Soul Out Of The Box
I buried myself away from you,
I buried myself away from you,
Deep
Deep
Deep
Deep
Until feeling your feet
Faded away.
Tossing and turning
Inside a wooden coffin,
Memories
Awaken my need
To return.
I climb the roots
The dirt embraces me
The soul got out of the box
Domesday became my friend.
Sweet dreams
Become beautiful nightmares
When you
wake up
to me.
A hearse carriage
Carries us
To a happily ever after
Grave.

Week 10
I wear disappointment in my eyes
Like sunglasses
I stretch the scars on my back
Like angel wings
My fears cover me
Like the night starry sky
That shines through my window
As I dream of yesterday and tomorrow.
I grieve those alive and dead
Grey tombstones hairs on my head
A rose casket
On my bed
An open book unread
Crumbled letters in my throat
Unsaid.
The full moon rises
The energy of mercury
Pulls me towards the sun
The astros calls my name.
As I am the dark sky
I swallow the universe whole
And I control
the galaxy
that rotates within me.
that rotates within me.

Sound Poem
Roaring water running down
sizzling against melting snow.
footprints racing
through the dancing winds
crushing earth
beneath the icy cracking surface.
Growling hungry howling wolves corner
the squeaking bouncy baby bunny
over a singing mountain
the child jumps,
the mountain splits
into two,
water splashes
rotating rivers around
the screaming wolves.
sizzling against melting snow.

the squeaking bouncy baby bunny
over a singing mountain

To Dream
To dream
in time and space
where space could go back in time.
To walk on a cloud
where at any step
the cloud becomes a crowd.
To sleep next to a farmer
and wake up to a horse.
Counting sheep
turns to counting beats
to counting sleep
then counting streets.
We live on dreams.
Dreams take us,
here,
there,
everywhere.
But are dreams, dreams
If they're really dreams?

List Poem
What if I told you I don’t give a fuck?
What if I said I felt like I ran out of luck?
What if I ask why am I here?
Not my appearance, but existence.
I don’t care no more.
I don’t sleep no more.
I don’t eat no more.
I just drink some more.
Are dreams dreams,
If they are still dreams?
If I don’t give a fuck about this problem,
Is that a problem?
Im melting,
But does that make me a witch?
Or does that make me a bitch?
I can’t decide which?
I don’t care if he hates me,
I don’t care if she hates me,
I don’t care if they hate me,
Fuck them all just hate me.
If the shoe was on the other foot,
Not not yours,
But his,
You’d take the spit off my face,
And clean that little bitches shoes.
This is why I don’t fuck with y’all no more.
This is why I don’t talk to y’all no more.
This is why,
When your fake asses walk by,
I look at God through my sunglasses,
And don’t open my mouth to speak no more.
I walk through doors,
I look through ceilings,
I levitate on water,
I fuck your feelings.
