I Do Care, Vacuum, Story Arc, What They Will Say About Me; When I Die, No Credence to Rumors, Universe Forgives All, and Prepare For the Big One

I am currently in the process of finishing up my next short story, Slow Down (This Is What Happened). A story about a group of friends and their exploits in Las Vegas, loosely based upon trips I have taken with some of my closest friends. Who doesn't love a good Las Vegas story? Slow Down, is a story that I've been wanting to write for years and finally said fuck it! I had so much fun writing this. It was a nice break from the next installment of my epic poem 'Heavenly Decay' from my forthcoming book of poetry, Universe Unravelling. I will be unveiling the cover for Universe Unravelling very soon. I also am working on another visual for a poem I wrote about my son, Nathaniel Jacob, who I'll be holding in my arms any day now.

Until Slow Down is complete, which will be very very soon, here is some more poetry. I apologize if it seems a bit overwhelming. I've been writing a shit load of limericks lately and I wanted to get some of them onto my site. I think in the future I'm going to try and limit myself to three poems or so, per post. 

I Do Care

  All the world's problems are seriously about to be solved
  I've found the easiest way and most important way to get involved
  With my disdain and my pen I will hoard
  The fallibility of humanity that descent humans deplore
  I will expose and out these injustices and how they should prevail no more
6  I care too much for the universe, so apathy I can't explore
  I will write about the world's ills and ailments
  And all that I lament
  Writing my opinion is the greatest action
  I truly care, all of my time spent writing misery's caption
  Oh shit! What if I write the world into utopia's spin?
12 What the fuck would I write then?
  Maybe, I should put down my pen
  I may never write again

Vacuum

 I prefer apples and the "classics" and vegan food
 And anyone against my preferences alters my mood
 If you don't like apples you must have never had a dad
 If you don't read Browning your life is doomed sad
 What I like and care about and love and covet won't move
6 Your opinions are hollow, you're mad!

Story Arc

 How did this ever begin?
 Death's hideous chagrin
 From the first breath to blissful ignorance
 My hope belongs to another's opulence
 If I am to be remembered, bend the narrative, I did win
6 And greatness I owned, it I didn't rent

What They Will Say About Me After I Die

 Today, we lay to rest an honorable man
 He was convicted of what he couldn't understand
 All he wanted was to define words and make them guilty
 But learned that when you worship times, filthy
 Your jokes and anecdotes and definitions never land
6 Death finally listened to his command

No Credence to Rumors 

 Yes, you are right
 I did fuck that goat in its ass, tight
 It 'baaahed' like a sheep! My cock too big
 Yes, it was very pleasurable for me and it
 I am a goat fucker. I fuck goats with all my might
6 Well, that's what I was told I did

Universe Forgives All

 There is nothing outside of the realm of chaos
 Literally, there is nothing, there is no draw
 As the universe, I've seen everything that is nothing that is everything
 And this I confidently sing
 There is no shock or surprise or awe
6 I don't give a fuck, that's what I mean

Prepare For the Big One

 It only takes three seconds
 To teach this important and life affirming lesson
 One of these days we will shake and shake and shake and shake
 And then California will split from her country mates
 Although, there is no exact day or even certainty, just guessin'
6 If you want to survive a huge fucking land mass violently drifting into the Pacific Ocean, an earthquake kit you should make
