Aesop (2013)
Girls used to ask me out, said things like “Hey, Stephen, want to date?” (I mean what do you say in middle school? [When you’re not talking about that girl— giving blowjobs in the bathroom for a dollar]) I’d say “Yeah, sure.” And pretend they didn’t exist. Every one broke up with me within a …
Aaaaand another: “Consummation” (2013)
“Romeo, Romeo, flamebe true,” echoed her soft claim.And said in dregs,betwixt her legs,he, “sweetheart, you (called, i) Came.”
A song of Sol(e/o)m(o)n (2015)
I was going to be good today,sit down and write a short story,could make as much as 300 bucks off it. still tryin’, least at the back of the mind. but it’s all too much of a swell,toomuchswimminroundinsideallthisbigemptyspaceIkeepcallinamind.

A Song of Sarah (2014)
they’d always called her a wishy-wash, they had,but it wasn’t, it wasn’t her fault,just had this gut-wrench, foot-high-float sort of feel to her,and she walked like she was afraid of flyin’ from the earth, delicate, slow.but what they liked most about her was how soft-spoken she was,how she ain’t ever been much for …
A Whiskey and a Pack to Tell You. (2014)
Hell, I don’t even know how this came up, but: “I’m not worried about it, you’ve made it abundantly clear– –how much you don’t like me like that. I’m more than capable of taking a hint.“ “No, I never said that.” “Yeah, she never said that, keep at …
A Small Truth (2013)
Hey you,I love you,You probably don’t believe that,But I do.You’re pretty damn awesome.You should tell me about it.
A Short Poem on my Sobriety (2013)
It’s hard to tell when you’re drunk,But only because I always am. Does that make me a binge drinker? Does that make me a bad person? Is that the line between good and evil? Do you think less of me,Knowing I run to the bottle,Because I can’t stand looking at me,Knowing the things I’ve lost,Or …
A Resurgence of Poetical Facts! (2014)
fact one: a poet can be prolific without achieving mastery, but I’ve never seen a master poet who wasn’t prolific. fact two: maybe, maybe it’s the concussion I got,but this ear-rung pain’s got me thinkin’,‘bout what i ain’t got.‘n maybe, maybe it’s the passin’ stories ’til one in the mornin’,maybe, maybe it’s the rememberin’ that …
A Quickie in the Name of Truth (2013)
You don’t say shit,But apparently you love my poetry,And I want to fuck you,Just because I don’t know how else to express,How much I love that you love me,How much I love that you don’t know how to say it. It’s not that my dick is more expressive than my mouth,It’s just more immediate,And true.
