First and Always Man

Project type

Poem

Date

January, 2026

Day breaks
After the night has
Folded us in.

To blend in
Is the sin
That Eve began.
She still longs for and
bites the fruit
All these years later.

Adam,
In his skivvies
Cowering like a sick animal
While God looks
On mockingly,
Asking him
Where art thou?

He says,
“I am right here, mothafucka!”

Like a little punk bitch,
Scratching an itch,
Languishing from
Thirst that will not quench.

I am master
Of nothing
And owner of all calamities.

This site exists so I can be exactly who I need to be.
You are free to visit and be whoever you need to be.
The work here takes the form of stories and poems.
Nothing is offered to carry you. What you find is for your own sake.
