I jumped off a cliff with no parachute
A smile creased my face as wind tore my clothes
Got drunk in a bar and punched out a brute;
the kind you don't mess with - everyone knows.
Kissed a King Cobra right there on the lips
dove off a cruise ship to swim with a whale,
Invented a dance just to tickle your hips
Hijacked a truck and delivered the mail.
Drove a hundred and ten right down the road
Passed a cop in his car like he's standing still
Stood on a church pew, got naked and crowed
If you tell me a sin, then I probably will.
My heart is just so full of love for you
There's nothing in life that I wouldn't do.

There's nothing in life that I wouldn't do.

VOGUE
she sits
heaving on the bathroom
floor on sunday nights like
it's in style to have rotten teeth
and bloodshot eyes
and all 206 bones on display like
a natural history exhibit
(in fifty years they will line
up before your corpse to see
the girl who had to ring
Death's doorbell exactly seven
times before he opened the door)
trees shiver in winter
until all the snow scatters
to the ground and they are left
bare and naked like skinny
children left on the side of the road.
snow crystallizes in my hair until
it is stiff and white. i miss the days
when the sky was black at night
instead of faded grey and when
i didn't face nightmares of

Biology (In Defense Of Free Verse)
The heart has four chambers:
two muscular atria and
two ventricles that alternate
between relaxing and
contracting, circulating
oxygen-rich plasma
throughout the body.
This is one of many processes
that occur whether you
want it to or not.
I can sense your flesh and
pheromones
when I breathe you in like pollen
or particles of smoke.
You are a part of my lungs
before tiny capillaries carry you
sleeping or intoxicated
to my heart.
Then it seizes up-
pumping little bits of you
through my veins like nerve endings
and I feel you
from my waist to my lips and
inside my brain.
The primary cause of love
is the chemical pheneth

Icarus
Who are you, and what am I?
Remember me? I touched the sky
I flew too hard and burned too fast
Dreams like mine, they just don't last
I touched the sun on feathered limbs
I satisfied my wildest whims
But I burnt out, and I fell down
My body wasn't ever found
But don't remember me for how I failed
I embody all the dreams that've sailed
So who are you, and what am I?
Remember me? I wasn't afraid to fly.
