he takes a quantum physics
approach
and his thumbs seem to press through
flesh into the subtle layers beneath...
... ouch

poet Anonymous

sprawled deep in the valley
staring up into heavens gate
taking the wrong path now
would surely seal his fate

symmetric moco spirals
bared their teeth
abrading skin
along the central line
before being roughly secured
by a munter hitch

(en)lighten

heavy-swollen eyes
overlooking
his sky-high zen face
ruptures in a release
lashing out sideways
allover
slanted stony bones

and she wore her scars
like lingerie
wanting his palms
to stroke
the lace abrasions of
her broken heart
gently

shedding silken wings
she bared herself
to the kiss of first blush,
pale skin shimmered
in the warm half light

Home sweet home
Like bear to cave
Like cat to lap
Like dog to feet
Like sword to scabbard
Me to you

candle light flickered
on the window pane
her home cooking on his mind
he veered from the fast food lane

it shouldn't have hurt
but it did
and that's my fault
for believing something
i knew to be a lie

She cooked to please
her beloved's heart
She cooked too well
he put on weight
had a heart attack

poet Anonymous

all his lies relaxed their steely grip
collecting around her feet
the recoil subsided
and his arrogance
was no more

She wants to evoke
sparkles in his eyes
before he leaves
even the lies are better
than total indifference

His eyes also lie
his lips may tell the truth
confusing the entire dance
of what may not happen next
