BAD HABITS

BAD HABITS

Voices Echo Your Arrival

The slime 
of all my 
yesterdays
rots in the 
hollow of 
my skull.

The Narcissi, too, are bowing to some big thing

There is a dignity 
to this

Tell My werewolf not to run

Dead men 
render love 
and war no 
heed, Lulled 
in the ample 
womb of 
the full-tilt 
globe.

It's been too hard livin. But I'm afraid to die

Come with me
Where birds
fly. Come with
me where
rainbows die.

Thunders

I'm through with 
this grand 
looking-glass 
hotel where 
adjectives play 
croquet with 
flamingo nouns.

Cinderella

He who 
is not 
busy 
being 
born
is busy 
dying.

Miss Drake Proceeds to Supper

Born 
illegitimately 
To a 
whore
most likely 
He became
an
orphan.

For Your Life

Your stooges 
Plying their 
wild cells 
in my keel's 
shadow.

Decades

The 
smile
of 
iceboxes 
annihilates 
me.

Letter To A Purist

That grandiose 
colossus who
Stood astride
The envious 
assaults of sea.

Big Time Sensuality

Melting the 
tallow heretics,
Ousting the 
Jews. Their 
thick palls float.

Angelic Hoodlums And Holy ones

Mozart's requiem
will play. 
On tiny speakers
made of clay.

Owner Of A Lonely Heart

They are 
always with 
us, the thin 
people.
Meager of 
dimension 
as the gray 
people.

The Bull of Bendylaw

A product 
of the 
untalented. 
Sold by
the 
unprincipled. 
To the 
utterly 
bewildered.

What's God's name? I can't remember

God will come 
and wash away
our tattoos and 
all the cocaine.
And all of the 
aborted babies
will turn into 
little bambies.

Isolation

Here in this
valley of 
discrete 
academies.

On Shrewd Claws


Aquatic Nocturne


flicker gilt.
Grapeblue mussels
dilate lithe and
pliant valves.

Cosmic Love

I am sending 
back the key
that let me 
into Bluebeard's 
study;
Because he would'nt 
make love to me.

A Vulturous Boredom Pinned Me In This Tree

If they cared about the climate,
They'd of gone to Heaven.
They came to Hell,
For the company.

Old Man Wrigley

By the roots of 
my hair some 
god got hold 
of me.
I sizzled in 
his blue volts 
like a desert 
prophet.

O Jesus, Quicken Me

How does it feel
to be one of the 
beautiful people?
Now that you
Know who you are.

Moonage Daydream

I have no wit, 
I have no words, 
no tears.
My heart within 
me like a stone.

To Try And Try And Yet Come Up Short

Your clear 
eye is the 
one absolutely 
beautiful thing.

Tiny Spirit In A K-Hole


Worship this 
world of 
watercolor 
mood in glass 
pagodas hung 
with veils of green.

Eye Of The Beholder

Christened in 
a spindrift of 
snowdrop stars,
where on 
pink-fluted 
feet the pigeons 
pass.

Again We Are Deluded

Society knows
perfectly well 
how to kill 
a man. And
has methods
more subtle
than death. 

Paul Anthony Heck

2/8/85 - 12/14/08

You were the best 
big brother I could 
have ever imagined.
I love you Tony.
And will forever 
miss you.

Like A Rolling Stone

A saintly sparrow 
jargons madrigals
to waken dreamers
in the milky dawn,

Dark Side Of The Moon

Lavender ribbons
of rain sang.
Ridding my 
heart of
mortal fight.

Dont speak, I can hear you

A second's pause.
The dull drums of 
my pulses beat
Against a silence 
wearing thin.

Banksy

If you find me,
hide me.
I don't know
where
I've been. 

Weeping Willow, Wont You Wallow Louder

And there's 
a weepy
ol' willow. 
And he
really knows
how to 
cry. 

Style Is Eternal

Grown milky, 
almost clear, 
like the bodies 
of saints.
It is touching, 
the way 
they'll ignore.

We Don't Exist

By learning that our existence 
is impossible, we learn that 
we do not exist. How can we 
die if we do not exist? We can't. 
Our body is taken over by some 
other being and forced to be. 
We have no choice, no options, 
We Don't Exist.

Am I Losing My Soul?

Take the general 
mumble, blunt 
as the faceless 
gut of an 
anonymous clam.

Change Is Hard

Saint noni
wise and 
heart-strong.

Beautiful Boyz

Sent to the 
reformatory.
Ten years old, 
was his first 
glory. Got 
caught stealing 
from a nun.
Now his love 
story had begun.

The Terrible Wind Tries His Breathing

A flower cannot
blossom without
shunshine. 
A man cannot
live without 
love.

The Goddess Discovered Her Gail

I'll bathe you
in the crystal
light. That 
sleeps between 
my thighs.

What was done to me was monstrous

Evey
V For Vendetta 

The only verdict is 
vengeance, a 
vendetta, held 
as a votive not
in vain.
