A tired swing on a lonely beach
The breeze loves to play with it
I rest down on its creaking seat
And let breeze play with us both
The night makes you forget
What you want to remember
And helps remember
What you long to forget
Nocturnal animals
Always longing for dusk
We wild things come alive
Drawn to moon-bulged tides
In her darkness we cure
Our salt-brined insides
Color me, mysterious
Did I catch your eye
Was it my technicolor aura
Was it my indigo vibe
Do you prefer your image
Reflected in fawning eyes
Do I make you feel special
As your hand slides up my thigh
Am I the object
Of your desire
Do I make you
Feel alive
Do I ignite
Your drive, baby
While I’m
Dead inside
Lean in slow and kiss me baby.
I’m not home behind the eyes
But I left a key under the mat
For you baby so come inside
Tilt my hips and arch my spine
Until I make you grow inspired
Drain my juices with jumper cables
Plug in me to stay alive
Am I the object
Of your desire
Do I make you
Feel alive
Do I ignite
Your drive, baby
While I’m
Dead inside
Is it really me, you see
Or a version, fantasy
Am I plastic, barbie-core
Your wet dream je t’adore
Am I the object
Of your desire
Do I make you
Feel alive
Do I ignite
Your drive, baby
While I’m
Dead inside.
Heyyy there, beautiful.
You're a breath of fresh air
Outta left field I swiped right
On those eyes and jet black hair
So jump on the back of my cafe racer
And let's go somewhere
Let's go, some, where...
Let's go, some, where...
(He says)
I love the rush of your
Push notifications
I love our talks at 2 am
I love the way I feel
Sliding into you
But I'm allergic to
I love you
Hey there, baby.
I know it's not polite
Sorry I've been so busy
I've only got two hours tonight
Here's my intermittent attention
Not enough but alright
I know you best,
I know what you like...
Let's go, some, where...
Let's go, some, where...
(He says)
I love the rush -
Your push notifications
I love your nails in my hair
I love the way I feel
Sliding into you
But I'm allergic to
I love you
Heyyyy, there baby
I know, it's been a while
You wanna scratch that itch again
I saw your post, I like your style
You can be my sapiosexual
I'll be your discophile
I know you best,
I know what you like..
Let's go, some, where
Let's go, oh, let's go,
Let's go, oh, let's go,
Let's go, oh let's go, some, where!

He quotes Aurelius
Promises no guise
Sometimes I glimpse
The pain in his eyes
I wanna crack him open
But am terrified to try
We die from the unsaid
He holds it, holds it inside...
He holds it inside..
(Let's go, oh, let's go)
Holds it inside...
(Let's go, oh, let's go)
He holds it inside...
(Let's go, oh, let's go, some, where...)
I assembled a
pretty picture
of a girl
everybody wanted
but now I'm
feeling haunted.
Not sure it's
the one I wanted.
Not sure I
know what I mean
if you know
what I mean.
Maybe you tell me?
Or maybe not.
Maybe this time,
I will dump out
all the pieces
on the floor again.
Rearrange and
reimagine and
reassemble me again.
Not to be
an illusion,
a delusion, or
a pretty effigy.
But just to
be me.
[2024]
A walk past the mirror
shows how pretty she is
Wide wise eyes canopied
by the arch of her brow
rosy red lips
her heart-shaped face
framed by her long lustrous hair
Mirror, mirror, on the wall
Who is the fairest of them all?
Looking glass shadows
the pain of her heart
Reflections of light hide
her feelings of dark
Bitter memories and
sour embraces
From men holding the body
untying the laces
Mirror sees the
beauty without
but is blind to the
darkness within
You only have to look
past the mirror.
[1996]
You were only supposed to be
Fresh meat for the night to me
But your mushroom cloud
Rose up in my starry eyes
And the world was the guise..
It was only you and I...
Stardust dancing in our eyes
Lust dripping between our thighs
It was only you and I
Reality dies and I float by
On your mycelium high...
All your addictions became mine
I breathed you in like 'doin a line
You undressed me of my armor
And promised to hold me always
But was just a holographic haze...
It was only you and I...
Stardust dancing in our eyes
Lust dripping between our thighs
It was only you and I
Reality dies and I float by
On your mycelium high...
Then I awoke spinning around
On this toxic merry-go-round
And swirling clouds of love and lies
Shrouded the stardust once in our eyes
Were we or Reality the guise?
Was it
cosmic
twin flame
kismet?
Or just
another
kink neon
'shroom trip?
It was only you and I...
Stardust dancing in our eyes
Lust dripping between our thighs
It was only you and I
Reality dies and I float by
On your mycelium high...

Trapped.
Trapped.
Trapped.
In a locked box of steel
With deadbolts held fast
Can't move at all
And I scream and I scream
But I am locked in the walls
Of this tight steel box
Trapped.
Trapped.
Trapped.
Like bricks on my back
All this stress weighs me down
Can't breathe at all
And I scream and I scream
But I'm crushed beneath
All these bricks on my back
Trapped.
Trapped.
Trapped.
Tits and ass in a mirror
A straight-jacket of beauty
Can't speak at all
And I scream and I scream
But I'm muted behind
this pretty type-cast facade
Trapped.
Trapped.
Trapped.
Trapped.
Trapped.
Trapped…
[1998]
