I'm a poet. I'm published in various forms of media and currently working on my first novel.

This blog will display my work as it is written, before being submitted for publication, as well as expressing my thoughts and feelings on the dull.

NINE TO FIVE IN A DESERTED BEE HIVE

Lobotomy at the bottom of boredom,
strangle-/holding obese anorexics
with their tendrils tied to lost shipping lanes.

Hoarders of half-empty elephants on dull dames,
iced up with ignorance, blowing out insults
by the picturesque post card of tan grime.

I’m executed by the trucker’s bride,
left to balance the bar with one eye on the
time. The safaris are liberated zoos.
