TENTATIVE

Both sides of the fence
can be laughing and taunting.

But there is a difference
tween having and wanting.

The last first time
that he was with me.

Our past was a crime
and we wished to be free.

For we were both haunted
the last time we met.

We were both wanted
and both knew regret.

In a dream of a cousin
who does not exist.

A dream of a cousin
who I so longed to kiss.

A dreamed of reunion
between him and I.

A dream of confusion
and a dreamed of goodbye.

He was older than me
but younger than him.

He was bolder than me
in that summer of sin.

Yet I wanted more
than what he was giving;
down to my core
but I was forgiving…

The hug by the road
which was our goodbye.

The hug as time slowed
and we wanted to try.

Lost in inference:
teens passing a haunting…

Star-crossed indifference
tween having and wanting.

Based on the dream I woke from. There was a boy, a cousin. I thought he was much older than me but learned he was only 1 year older. In the dream he was based on a cousin who is actually younger than me, but I always think of him as being older now, for some reason, which probably explains the dream discrepancy. He was blonde and a fellow student; he had nice teeth and though he was sad he always seemed to be smiling. I felt he was lying about what he truly wanted, which echoed my youth when I encountered several others just like him. I thought he might be stealing something from me; a video of some type of pornography. I wanted to kiss him goodbye but he was trying not to do that. And when we hugged goodbye by the side of Mooreville Road (which is where I grew up and which in the dream had a lot more flat empty surface than in reality) our bodies were the same height, and it was like we could (or I could) feel both our bodies completely pressed together, like seeing an illustration of our insides – but not an accurate portrait, a kind of double image surrealism which showed me fire, blood, desire and passion – our circulatory systems lit up in a stunning animated painting.

The Slaughter Fantasies

In my dream,
my secret fantasy,
it is 2009,
you and I are a couple.

I relive the past
but I edit the details.

I know that you’re disloyal;
I know that you consistently violate
our rules on exclusivity…
but I never tell you that I know
and so our relationship never ends.

Your bad behavior;
your lies turn me on
to a degree that the truth
would never allow.

I want you to lie.
I need you to lie.
But I also need to know that you’re doing it,
or there is no pleasure for me.

In the actual past
I didn’t quite understand this
about myself
and so I was hurt,
aroused and hurting
(and very confused as a result),
but to be fair,
in reality,
I needed to protect myself.

In the dream
there is no threat of disease
and no hurt feelings,
and when I beat off
I don’t worry about any of that as a result.

In the dream I lie to you too.
I manipulate you.
I make sure that you have the time
and space and all that is required
to allow you your eroticised deceptions.

But it’s your choice to lie
and your choice to be unfaithful,
and knowing that
you’ve made this choice
excites me.

I give you housewarming gifts,
a pair of clocks, or maybe stuffed animals,
for the bedroom and the livingroom
which feature hidden cameras.

I watch you cheat on me while I masturbate.

Sometimes you tell your other men about me:
“You suck me so much better than my boyfriend.”

Sometimes, in other dreams, you fuck friends of mine –
both of you thinking
you’re getting away with something
while also thinking
that I’m completely clueless.

So hot.

“Your ass is so tight.
Jason makes me wear a condom when I fuck him.”

Anytime you say my name to them
my cock throbs in my hand.

Sometimes you lie to them,
telling them that I have a small dick,
that I can’t hold an erection or that I cum prematurely…
and I never let you finish inside me.

You tell them you love me
but that I simply don’t enjoy sex
and can’t satisfy you.

Your men work hard
to give you the intercourse
you tell them you’ve been denied –
but you have lied to all of us.

You actually fuck me constantly,
which is why at the time,
I never suspected you might be cheating on me.

I think about this now,
and wonder why I get off on these fantasies of you,
but I’m too turned on now and I can’t stop.

Sometimes,
in the dreams,
I text you and I watch you respond on the camera
while your bareback slut,
desperate for your attention,
rides your thick dick,
loving the feel of the big mushroom head
slipping in and out of his abused holes
exactly the same way
that I once did.

“I love you” you type before you set the phone down
to violently fuck your whore.

I cum after you shoot in his ass,
while he’s sucking you clean.

I text you back.

“I love you too.”

You show him the phone
as you both laugh.

For Michael, so that he understands.

For Andy, Charlie, Cotay & Nick:
because this explains so much of why I understand,
at least my side of things.

Wishing you all the best.

ALL OF THE WORDS

Sean had arrived
as a sensitive star.

Sean still alive
with negative charge
drawn and then nourished
with the dawn of the moon…
of Sean in the forest
and then Sean in his room.

Bringing Sean home
before giving him head,
Singing of bones
and forgiving the dead
who imbibe from my screams
and take form from my dread,
who survive in my dreams
though they can’t warm my bed…
who want me with

all of the words

to be spread –
who haunt me with

all of the words

that we said

The Tides of Imagined Memories

Tied to the tides
and the sound of his voice,

All of them guides
who each made a choice,

I blink and again
they have this Hawaiian…

I think of them:
Jen and Travis and Ryan.

I think of Savannah…
I think of the Prince…

Cigars from Havannah
and flowering quince…

I think of the woman
who showed me the tides;
who opened me up
as I licked her insides…
as I closed eyelids…
The way that it struck me!

The week that I hid
so that Travis could fuck me.

All tied to the tides
and insights that incited…
which unites and divides us
and keeps us excited.

The Truth of Us Fucking

He was six years younger
and I fell for him hard.

He filled me with wonder
and then left me scarred.

I slept as a slave;
the forever unsure.

As I wept at the grave
of whatever we were.

I could not attack,
or heal or breakthrough…

So brought himself back
to reveal what I knew,

What I couldn’t acquit
in spite of his touch,

I couldn’t admit
and refused insomuch,

In light of the osseous
friction begun

in spite of the obvious
fiction I’d spun

The youth turned to dust
as his song quelled aggression,

The truth of my lust
and my long held obsession.

He took me astride
and he rode me / revealed…

He took me inside
and showed me what’s real…

He stared
as he sheathed me…

Was there then
beneath me…

Then turned himself round
with his face to the floor.

Asked me to enter,
return to his center,

He burned the bed down:
all I’d wanted and more.

But the truth is
this action
is not what I needed.

My truth is
distraction
could not have succeeded.

The truth is
I wanted
what I gave away.

And with truth
he responded
and so showed me the way.

In the clash in the fire
that is always the present,

In the ash of desire
we part with affection,

In “now” that was “then”
we were not brokenhearted,

Won’t do this again
and we’ll always be parted.

For Shawn Foreman,
who I haven’t seen in over 15 years.

I Know What You Are

I dream about you
and the way that you taste.

You are the MONSTER
who I can’t replace.

A minister fired
for dealing desire.

Sinister plyer
of feelings inspired.

The singular choir
who sings and then shoves me.

You are the spire
that towers above me.

You are the fire
which quells and then gloves me.

You are the liar
who tells me he loves me.

For Michael

My Pale Skin Condition

Part I: What Lies

A blazed misbehaving
I am wrought (from behind).

And I’m always craving
in thought and in mind.

Insane sound of drums
as the thrusts leave me burned.

The pain always comes
as the lust is returned.

And if pleasure deserts me
then why should I screw?

If pleasure does hurt me
then what should I do?

If skin is conditioned
to make one afraid…

Then I am positioned
to make me unmade…

Yet if my betrayal
by my circumstance
is meant by portrayal
to cleave from the dance
then I will choose pain
for as long as I dare…

In this game of chance
I’ll try not to be scared.

Part II: The Truth Beneath

My primary protective barrier
has been decimated by genetic anomalies.

Color bleeding out of me slowly,
imperceptibly,
across time and place.

My Dorian Gray reflection
is just as exorbitant, just as damned,
if far less immortal (and even less fictional),
leaving me to ponder quotes by Natalie Merchant
& various Hellraiser sequels.

My pale epidermis keeps people
from noticing what is apparent
in other darker shades
of the same ravaged organ…
I am understandably less daunted
by my own nearly invisible changes in tone.

It is the texture which fascinates
and at times, terrifies me.

The rough skin made smooth, taut,
and somehow stretched to the point of near tearing,
like a molting humanoid creature,
unable to break free…
making friction far more painful
than anyone would ever guess
when merely glancing
at my beautifully camouflaged exterior.

The secret stroking of flames and flesh
combined in the perfect union of sex
and of power: that harmony, that balance
forever disrupted, imbalanced
by vicious circumstances I’ve never dared express,
and which have never been freely mirrored
to my careful, guarded attention.

The youth that so many gratefully mistake me for
is a cruel trick of tegument
which grants me favor
at a terrible cost that I,
who have lived with it long enough to have surely known better,
am only just beginning to comprehend.

IN MY EYES

LOOK IN MY EYES
AND KNOW YOURSELF.

YOU SHOOK THE SKIES
WITH WHAT YOU FELT.

FOR YOU ARE ALIVE
AND YOU BELONG.

YOU SURVIVED
BECAUSE YOU’RE STRONG.

AND YOU SUBVERT
WHAT CAME BEFORE.

SO HE CAN’T HURT
YOU ANYMORE.

For Katie and for Little Jason.

The Monster

When we met
you set on fire
as you kissed me
from above.

When we met
you were a liar
and convinced me
of your love.

When I slept
with that imposter
he was always
underhand.

When we met
you were a monster
but I didn’t
understand.

I couldn’t see
the truth
inside deceptive
aching flame.

You couldn’t keep
the proof
of my perspective
from your shame.

A shame
that only blizzards slayed
me tragic
in your eyes.

Like a game
that only wizards play
your magic
was a lie.

I don’t regret
the level
where you spurned me
with your spell.

When we met
you were the devil
and you burned me
with your Hell.

The fire
left its mark
and I’m now
forever changed.

And required
hefty spark
has left me now
deranged.

For now
I understand
but I’m haunted
by the squandered.

For now
you are a man
but I only want
the monster.

IF ONLY I’D KNOWN…

Before I had grown
and had moved far away.

If I could have known
what you never would say.

I could have watched
and seen all the signs.

Could have hopscotched
and made all the rhymes.

If I knew in youth
that you’d always desert me.

If I knew the truth
then it would not have hurt me.

I would have had fun
and would always be yours.

And I could have cum
more than all of your whores.
