Unpublished pieces

There is honesty in the killing
of searchless ambitions.

Delusions of grandeur and prima donna eyes.

False sense of pride.

Scratch your groin and feel the pain
             of books without words
                       and wars
                       without guns.

Whipping fresh virgins
        with the caresses of violence.

Wrapping fist into glove
                           to punch
                                        the table.

Just one more day in the adventure
                                  of dying.
Another battle in the disillusionment of time.

Grabbing no particular pattern
                        to the screaming
of the dead lying angry in their graves.

Put on the cloak of pretend
                    and drop away
                                from aquarium living.
