I carress you
My fingertips tracing your curves Loving the sounds you make for me I smile and inhale Heady with your scent You work so hard to help me I stroke you Calling out the best of us both I praise you Until it is late in the night and we are both exhausted I curse you When you run dry of essense at awkward moments I worship you My midnight mistress I fear for the day you fail me For how will I be a typewriter boy without you You are my beauty My battered ancient goddess of print My Typewriter Lover

Smelling of stale cigarettes and despair
Whiskey label somehow permanently adhered into front Scribbles in margins Stains of ink and graphite smudges Humorless remarks Not a study copy but a work of desperate madness Blood on the edges from paper cuts Can almost hear the hiss of a curse as the pages flip Discard it discard it discard it Yet still it circulates Like a battered 1938 penny Worn by time and rubbed smooth by nervous fingers Read it lost as much in margin additions as original text Is this what madness looks like Or is this what inspiration becomes

Fingertips stained with ink from broken ballpoint pen
A mess of blue black on the desk I want to paint swirls on the decades old calendar But no that's childish I am childish So I scrawl spirals until the ink dries I scrub at my hands until only ghosts of ink remain Like some cleaned up Celtic warrior Is it so wrong I want to drag the ink across my skin Painting the designs of the gods of battle To go off and face grocery store fascists And green market madmen I close my eyes and simply breathe

My tongue flicks out
Salty sweat clinging to my upper lip Fear and shame in the drops I push the door open It is 90 degrees out And I wear combat boots For am I not going to war Jeans splattered with mud and flecks of rusty blood Torn out at the knees from rough asphalt Heavy leather studded belt A backup defense And layers Layers to hide that I am not what I seem Layers to be armor Body armor misery On top is heavy hooded sweatshirt Everyone knows my secret The teachers scream it everyday Except for a few that see the desperation in my eyes And say my last name instead That's safe enough But after school and in halls I am freak Faggot Flaming Fairy Queer Those who yell it most I see it in their eyes Disgust...at themselves Because they like what they see So I take it Don't go to the locker when anyone is about Don't want locker door bruises From heads bashed into door so fast Broke two pairs of glasses last year Finish the day walk out They wait till I am off the grounds and halfway home Lay in wait to beat me up After a while I give as good as I get No one will ever admit they are beat up by a girl I wish they'd say I was who broke their nose Least then they'd accept I am not a girl Go home bruised and bloody Nurse the hurts Grin around the pain Mom says we can find another school Dad doesn't even know too lost in his own pain I just shake my head A day at a time armored and ready to go Because at least in this school I know who to punch And who to simply smile at Because I am a teenage freak who is happy no longer being meek -A memory of teenage angst

Am I mad
Is this hell that I reside A horrible torturous suffering Meant for some past life self Am I dieing We are all dieing some faster then others Most days I feel as if I am dieing by inches Am I screaming I can't hear myself but I know I should be Yet no sound ever ever escapes Am I drowning In life in death in hell If I am do I go to heaven Does the hurt ever stop?

There is a mad symmetry
In the way the words fall across the page As the click,click,click of keys rings in silence But for the melting of the ice in the glass on desktop And the sound of the cat's soft snores on the bookshelf Occasionally mosquito buzz near half deaf ears Advance the page a steady rhythm builds Tap, tap, tap Finish page Scratching pen correcting typos toofast forgot the spaec Dyslexic mind doesn't catch all the misspells Will find them later when brain less fuzzy click, click, click nother page beneath the keys scratch scratch scratch like the leaves in the breeze

Hot sweaty therapy
We have fucking Therapy Urge to be seen as who we are You on my cock Happy fagboi Seen as beautiful handsome boy Willing to bottom for me Therapy session on the floor You call me handsome hot hard hunk You've had surgery I have not But you don't treat me like a freak You bite and scratch We walk away bruised and at peace Therapy hookup I've got your number until next year
