Cody Moore Poems

To my friend who wishes
To sleep for ever more
We are the forest
But through the trees
...

I can feel you behind my eyes
Your flames like needles
You’re in my head this I know
You poke and prod with sharp claws
...

I sit here with great mental anguish,

Acidic thoughts in my mind languish
...

What more can I give you
In the dark nights I find peace

I can not see what is left of me
...

The dust caught in the sun beam
The sound of a cat breathing
The smell of Tranquility
The warmth of a fragrance
...

I sit in my empty house, walls mocking me.

I sit with an empty heart, love mocking me
...

Pepper my dreams and
flavor my fantasies
In my realm of sleep
You dance so carelessly
...

If a bullet were to find me
In its mid flight
I shall join my brethren
In there everlasting night
...

The temptation of the flesh and heaven revealed,

I woke this morning to see that the devil was in my bed
Oh what big breast you have Lucifer
...

Slowly my mind slipped away
So slow I didn’t even notice it go
I looked for it around the world
Gave up in the American mid west
...
