fear of love is strong with some
not me I’m broken open waiting hung
spinning wheels fortune mind
shifting future all the time
days are long split in two
living lonely preparing for you
cold ice wall built between us
feeling cracks in fortress mistress
enough it’s rough without your beauty
brilliant mind perfect breasts rarest booty
brave to starve two wild animals
best expect no rest from man handle
this no boast just fair warning
hunger grows from hard fought longing
so testing flame’s duration it seems
yes my fire still burns hot silly.
Day Gun
future is foggy
same for past follies
I see us there
veiled hat pair
so much has happened
life shot from cannon
mind walk of sorts
trail paved some then dirt
things measured in smiles
lacking bountiful piles
scarcity feels like punishment
when pendulum sticks fuck it
best plans slide to hell
when digging selfish well
thank you all times
good bad ugly fine.
Day Gun
working on smile flatline
niece spies sad inside
lonely so long maybe stuck
gears not greased eventually rust
one might say this done to self
or needed experience for growth upswell
either way dry desert walk
rare cactus flower see don't touch
dreams of kisses can’t replace
electric lips my favorite taste
love like wine better in time
sober thoughts meet hermit rhymes
don’t get me wrong no complaints
just mapping place between mates
complimentary compatible worth the wait
discernment lessons can't be faked.
Day Gun
one very cold night
six artists rowed out of sight
vowing to never write poems again
at least not for a certain woman
secretly each wished
with broken open heart
that he might hear from her
once touching foreign shore
you see this wily lass only has time
for men not from same countryside
little did they know as chilly wind blew
boats filled with depressed dudes is nothing new
rejection torn destination unknown
Scorpio risings’ torcher equals epic lore
so here I stand glad to stay back as only sane mind
good luck out there fellas no honey’s worth leaving Hewitt behind.
Day Gun
never not growing
older wiser stronger bolder
stubborn as all get out
hand me down picked lock
peace to those stuck on repeat
always forever I root for thee
won’t go backwards in time
wading through shrapnel roadside
cherished moments shared
only gravediggers dig up dead pairs
cardinal direction steady pointer
leader of artists past sojourn
reliably serving Truth
aligning with odd fellows
sobriety simple self love
ultimate rebellion won.
Day Gun
becoming tall cold tower
great view bed meant for two
with no body heat shared
brrr wind chill cuts through
a single green eyed jewel
waits sometimes patiently match
hard to know which comes first
grey beard or loving catch
spending most days working out
training old age stair climbing
hermits do so much more
than clever song and word rhyming
mostly battles fought in mind
amongst half ass gardening
shadow dragon only foe
all others not worth bothering.
Day Gun
