Catman Cohen Poems

Used to say
Life is love
Love will cure
Tears in blood
...

If I could divide the smell of flowers
I’d send some to the falsely charged
Locked in prison cells
Send some to the lonely seniors
...

She called herself London
On that day
She fell from the sky
Child of apple blossoms
...

You knew me when I built monsters
Before the days when you bled
You knew me when I surrendered
To the nightmares in my head
...

When she stepped out of the shower
In pale wet skin
And splendor
...

The Bed
Your Mouth
My Touch
Our Lips
...

Lift the wailing wood
Hammer the tortured nails
Place the ghostly steps
Below the battered rails
...

In that glistening azure pond
I had a favorite
A duck
I called
...

Got my crazies by my side
Drunk on vodka cyanide
Setting fire to the night
That’s the way we live the life
...

These are my confessions
Secrets of my mind
Everything that mattered
Truth I can not hide
...
