Christmas Chaos 
"Bundled wishes
and rowdy crowds'
Holiday cheer;
a nip in the mug.
Await the parade;
careening balloons
screaming harmony,
carols galore
A tempest within time
but year after year.
A Constant Chaos;
I still Merry on."

Just an Unhinged Lunatic Howling At the Moon

On a moonlit late night  
I sat in a bar 
Drinking drams of demented, fermented dream dew

Just an unhinged lunatic
Dreaming of howling at the full moon

Watching the world walk by
Looking at all the fine looking babes

Walking by the street
Thinking wild, erotic thoughts 
Of endless wild libertine passions

When into the bar
Walked the most beautiful woman 
In the Universe

So wild, so free
So wonderfully alive

I did not know what to do

As this vision of delight
Sauntered through the bar

In a skin tight leather pants
Looked so fine 
That my eyeballs hurt

And finally I had to say something
So I gathered up my manly courage

And walked up to her
And she looked at me

And instantly bewitched my soul
With a devilish grin

I lost all reason
And became a raving lunatic

Unhinged lunatic
Howling at the moon

Foaming at the mouth
A wild, free werewolf

Howling at the lunatic light
Of the full Moon

The Muse 

Totally distracted today by luscious memories of the lips of my Muse...

And of mine seeking prizes in the erected flesh awaiting eagerly my slippery, hungry mouth,

Hips squirming, thighs still dripping with our love,

Stomach clenching, smooth and conditioned by your impatient demands of wet silk gushing from my core...but that was before... 


Now impertinence awaits, rocking to and fro in the heart so freely given,

Never mind the lust that rocks the windowpanes, it is the love that’s taken and thrown against some proverbial wall,

I moan incoherently with pleasure and pain,

As my soul falls into the depths of a darkened slumber. 


Do this, do that, be a good little girl and smile...

Recede from your mind, these things that bring tears to your eyes..

“Fuck. That”...I whisper, blushing and ashamed, shaking from hammering heart in chest...

I need an Alpha, that can take me within an inch of my tender life with his appetites, and shout it from the mountaintops after, ‘She is Mine’. 


Shivering I come from baited dreams, awakened....
The bliss of my heart in tact through the unwelcome exchange of the past,
Licking up my thigh, another delicious Muse will arise,

And will make me feel loved....revered....beautiful, as is befitting such a glorified position, offered with love, and broken the same way. 


My soul, passion reigns and cannot be detained in other waking or dreaming tasks, as brash as it may seem at times...

The quivering, scintillating love I give..my body a virtual melting pot of glorious, beautiful devotion,

A deep kiss, my tongue reaching your soul with depths unknown by most humans in this existence, dismissed....

My Muse, is Gone, in my Heart. 


I writhe and groan as fingers touch that spot that buries the world and its burdens,

Flicking ever so gently the little nub that participates in my grandest pleasure, awakening a far different beast than the one that presently consumes....

Back arched, tears fall gently for what could never be,

As the heat rises, fingertips to toes, I’m exposed in each glorious eruption...such a beautiful me, I see, with watered cheeks and blazing eyes. 


A goddess at your fingertips, yet hidden...Why? 
The way a heart stabbed so irrevocably in pain heeds no sensible thoughts, only crushing dreams within heedless moments of despair......
It matters not, the way I moan your name so clear, as if in crystal tones this love for my Muse permeates this world,

Not in vain does it disappear, but indefinitely it does, echoes bouncing off the shattered walls of my heart.


And then, at some point, the light will cast from my eyes again as the fog clears,

All words have been spoken....un-reprimanded, or unnoticed...

I’ll write with quivering hands and shaky breath, because I haven’t the bravery to speak the words aloud nor the ability to not say them at all..a writer must write...



Of love, such a scintillating, beautiful love affair...that could never truly be, with my brilliant, but uncommitted, imaginary Muse.

                        Cradle
            up

                        to
                                    bury

                                                on
                                    Cat
                                        Hill
            ~ my
                        dear
                                    friend


As
            he
                        gives

                                    his
          last
                    breath

leaving
            a
                        heap

            of
                        black
                                    and
                                                white
                        I
                                    sigh



                    Curtains
                                        of
                                                  light
            open
                                    through
                                                            pines

                        for
                                    one
                                                kneeling
                                                                        soul


Old
          guy
                        shambles
                                                by

            No~
                        where
                                    special
                                                to
                                                            go


Can’t
            find
                        a
                                    path

            Still,
                        his
                                    body
                                                knows


            Once
                        sky
                                    goes ~

            a
                        cloud
                                    country

            over
                        which
            you
                        could
                                    wander
                                                            for
                                                                        days


                        Glance
          away

                        and
                                     soon
                                                sight
                                                           
                                                            valleys
                                                of
                                                            snow


Starving
          white
                    dog
                       
                                    has
                                                broken
                                                            free

            leaving
                        her
                                    chains

                                                for
                                                            me


                        “What’s
                                    drifting
                                                by …?”

                                                           
                                    “Just
                                                another

                                                            old
                                                            white
                                                                      dog …”


                                                White
                                                            dog

                                    and
                                                gray
                                                            man

                        cross
                                    paths
                                                                                   
                                                ~ just
                                                  ghosting


          Over
                              Snow
                                                  Mountain

~ my
                        only
                                                friend


Magpies ~
                        cold
                                    and
                                                clacking ~

            of
                        course,
                                    they’d
                                                have

                        some~
                                    thing
                                                to
                                                            say


                        Cold
            and
                        wet

                                    ~ blown
                                                low

                        only
            crows
                        cling            
           
                                    on
                        such
                                    branches



                                    “Who
                                        am
                                                  I …?”

                        A
                                    sheet               
                                                of
                                                            ice
                                                                        replies


Finger
            your
                        name
                                    in
                                                snow

            She
                    already
                              knows


          A
                    white
                              rabbit
                                                chomps
                                                            leeks               
                                    in
                                                snow

                        “Could
                                    I
                                                carry
                                                            you
                                                                        home
