here is the disclaimer :



Knight After the Reign, the sixth and final chapter in the Loser Johnson saga, comes full circle and brings everything up to speed. These poems, rants, lyrics, and other ideas I simply call “writings” include themes such as love, sex, depression, self-reflection, sarcastic humor, darkness, pop culture, worldly events, and politics. Knight After The Reign represents a warrior after his time, no longer in his prime. The plot then revolves around his continuation with life beyond the reaching of his peak. How he survives out of the spotlight and away from his initial purpose. Tales of old, tales of new. Fact and fiction. This book ends the legacy of a fifteen year writing career. Out with a bang or a whimper? Read it and decide.

here are a few samples from the book:



My Perfect Match



She’s an unreal invention
She’s a character I’ve read
And she is everything I’ve always wanted
She’s like a wish granted
Given solely to me
She has me chained up in her love that feels so free

And although she hurts me
With her blunt honesty
It’s that same candid way
Let’s me believe when I hear her say

This love is forever
This love is forever
And we will never
Not be together
In spirit and in flesh

She’s a wonderful endeavor
She’s a trip that never ends
She took my broken heart and now she’s made it mend
She’s so full of passion
Slightest touch, a spark of joy
I am so satisfied I couldn’t ask for more

And although she hurts me
With her blunt honesty
It’s that same candid way
Let’s me believe when I hear her say

This love is forever
This love is forever
And we will never let it sever
Always be together
In spirit and in flesh
She sleeps in the nude
Her hair changes hues
Her socks never match
But damn we sure do

This love is forever
This love is forever
And we will never
Not be together
In spirit and in flesh

To Be Scene Objectively



I hate you fucking “individuals”

You who are so “scene”

How can belonging to any clique

Make you a person of free will?

Die hard rock fans

Goths, punks, skaters, country clubbers, potheads

Business tycoons, redneck cowboys, gangsters

Peer pressured losers are you all

Fighting the system, my ass

Completing the link in the cycle

Of cooperate America

How original you think you are

This makes me laugh

Scoffing at your time spent fitting in

Rebelling against a fake cause

Merely to associate yourself

With the other fake rebels

So don your armor proudly

Segregate into pacts

Acquire an attitude that isn’t custom made

Thoughts that were thought long ago

Released into society from marketers

That are slicker than you’ll ever be

Have you bought the official

“How To Be A…” book yet?

Yep, maybe someday you’ll realize

That you have been duped

I finally saw the light

Got out of the masquerade

Am I unique? No

Are you? Don’t think so

Accept it

It’s fact.

Beyond the Salad Days



It seems I could write forever

About death and lost loves

My insecurities and the chances not taken

The unforeseen horror that becomes my life

Living in the past for so long

Clinging to those memories of what was.

It’s no life I tell ya

We all know we can never go back,

We can’t change the past,

And it’s over and done with.

So why do we honor it

And long for those golden days

That weren’t really golden to begin with?

What saps

Reliving the glory daze over and over again

I went back so many times my mind is mush

Now I yearn to move forward

Free myself of invisible chains

Shed the baggage of my past

So I can move beyond the salad days

And get to the main course.
