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
trail breaker face wind-chill taste
never less alone when alone
years drift away tears freeze in place
hard lessons learned now your turn
so many times I break what binds
soul strengthening test we train for
man it’s more fun with women around
beautiful brilliance lights my fires
life is so strange rarely relate
hermit-hood grows wizard brows
dwindling friends old cycle ends
who refreshes the scene
homework complete cooking just me
meals less meaningful no company
visions steady stream talking out dreams
honey waiting on thee.
Day Gun
living lies self harms
ingesting untruth deforms
socializing actors drain
avoidance a committed dance with pain
use sniff test who’s in your pool
smells like piss swim somewhere new
whole aisle of diapers for adults
is it me or something terribly fucked
what are you building this time
is there drive to heal or just die
either way won’t be big shocker
Truth sides with those growing honor
titled next level whatcha saying
I see through all choosing faking
rare to find souls climbing ladder
most waste days worshipping matter.
Day Gun
healed and whole from the get go
then thrown to arrogant ignorance
this how we role bravest old souls
which family’s bullshit best serves us
spending ones’s life unpacking traumatized plight
please teach kids nature of realm
chance at free will temptation test mill
tiny fraction survive self made hell
don’t fear fainting hearts love’s penetrating darts
many often choose learning discernment
never destiny pain result going wrong way
serving Truth brightens our days
pledge this new norm forget outworn scorn
let’s model sane examples for children
life is a gift gratitude prayed wish
may you find peace amongst madness.
Day Gun
