I am yours, mourning

Published on 29th April 2010 5:46pm

I am yours and you were mine
exhaling the ballads
of your fluttered touch
I breathed the ghosts
they left behind

your taste lingers
and the skin scent upon my pillow pales
beside the lips that I drank from
when I gave you sips of my waters
from cisterns that never ran dry

I fed you white lilies crooning
in the moans of writhing night
wrapped you in warm eden dawning
with breasts that never failed
to ravish you in perfume

the skies of me belong to you
you are written in my eyes
and every time I close them
I...

wear me dirty

Published on 25th April 2010 9:30pm

I'd like to wear you dirty
so the sex can seep
and grease the broken joints
of heart places trampled
raw from the sway
of machine men arching
and burying my soul
in bare mattress graves
just plugging holes in drains
and could never milk enough
to retain the satisfaction

of just another stain

I want to smell my female
smeared across your lips
slick opalescent glisten
in the light of empty moons
we can stare together
through fractured window spaces
you won't smile and I won't smile
I'll hate you if you do
and you will hate me...

requiem for frailty

Published on 26th March 2010 10:06pm

I will die to you this day
commend my spirit to far flung sighs
that you may love more in metaphor
what you could not wrap yourself around

it is an injustice of carnal nature
to be helpless before affection
to rend what fingers cannot stitch
desperate of ourselves
afflicted with loss and needing
to be whole somehow in understanding
that which we will never hold

I reveled in your twinings
and did not hear you groan
humming lost notes
of your desperate violin
in the midst of moaning music
I was utterly...

letter burning

Published on 4th March 2010 12:28pm

the door pulls shut and I am sealed
left to the vacuum of my dreams
no pillow for suffocating echoes
their ghosts rattle poison through the seams

would have been could have been should have been

where the glass lay shattered slowly bleeding
reels looped in cruel teeth gnashing nip my heels

"baby" it said
"when we make love" it said

violates my flesh and I am still...

I have singed it all a thousand times while sleeping
and stitched together ashes in my sin
to have the flames for pleasure licking hatred
just to feel and scorch it all...

vines of eden hedged

Published on 25th February 2010 10:40pm

you were moved by my soliloquy
but my stageless love was bright
so I fed you paleful lilies
in the gardens of my night

I tried to tongue the sequined rivers
as lonely fell from spaces
warmed you deep in chasmed orchid
soft hedged in eden places

the gypsy of you would not smell home
wombed sepulchral in my arms
this wicked fruit would not tempt you
dripping sweet serpentine charms

the woman of me shook for wanting
the circles you traced weren't mine
drawing swords of edgeless echos
thorn pricked eyes bled words of vine...

lamb

Published on 25th February 2010 10:24pm

I stutter father
bleating surrender
the stones heaped bend me
sapless beneath your branches
make of me a beggar

trembling in her rags

thirsting beside the still water
silence divides these hands
my cup pours
anointing the dusty valley
I wept to see her dry bones

lazarus is not here

no balm for ravaged knees
I cry in the light for darkness
sparrows mock my frailty
pluck the very hairs
that were knit upon my crown

smite me lamp black blind

ravening wolves howl
impatient for flesh
and still I...

bare of branches

Published on 24th February 2010 11:21am

the sun's dappling
masks the pulseless veins
her fingers stroke the fiery corpses
mocking wormservants
and tricking lovers into believers
of beautiful death

the crisp of bones fragment
beneath secret feet and lift
their dusthymns in the truth
of autumn's moon

that will not hide
beneath the patchwork of her dress
this patient haunting
where their skeletons
moan lower
in some places

if you would dig me deep enough
you will find the moss damp
where I will only sleep
until full lipped winds
quicken me to...

fluid

Published on 23rd February 2010 8:48pm

sable tossed raven cloak
shivers flutterkissed
flesh shudders
hungers open lips
burning wanderlust
drinks brutal liquor
teeth scrape
perfume heated
quickened pulse
tongue dipped honey
laps shadowed hollows
dreaming phantasmic
flickerlicks
writhe serpentine
bellies slitherslick
salacious sipping
red-tipped tapers drip
buttered womb silk
creamy cotton grips
finger slipped
body milk
lathered sylvan nymph
toes teased unfurl
slow smolder molten
ass and thigh contraction
damp end screams distraction...

eroticise...loosening up my tongue

Published on 22nd February 2010 8:48pm

taste shuddered tickled tongue
tips
lapped and foamed and frothed at
lips
whined and purred to lap his
drips
slick whipped trickled mushroom
flips
strains and veins to split these
hips
a beggar moaning slides and
dips
on lubricated peach skin
trips
head sans hands she flicks and
sips...　

erupting cum he grunts and
splits
she grabs his dollars grins and

linger

Published on 22nd February 2010 5:02pm

we were dizzy lust
and low smolder embers
uttering gooseflesh
to pale the strolling bards

we swore by deep night murmuring
riding rivers of our sighs
gifting perfumed script
to blush the white
of our sheets

you said that you saw angels too
and I never minded
the climb of you
or the tangle of your vines
lilting warm into your gentle
to pool the oceans
of our eyes

lingering in strange doorways
our stars turned corners
and bruised our heels

once our circles made us

only who will moan me now

elysium

Published on 14th February 2010 6:41pm

I lament as a nomad lost
a beggar roaming sighways
humid skin transgression
shimmers newborn upon velvet nude

liquid rivulets lash bashful
of turquoise and sin on purpose
from the fray of gathering pieces
and clutching them to nurse
in the dahlias of my breasts

I swallow your puzzle
amethyst in the wanting mist
as my womb stretches around your fragments
and I shatter with you

making perfect fit pictures
beneath the reddening sky
becoming less heathen
with each elysian cry
of redemption

and oh god

pretty

Published on 13th February 2010 7:38pm

I really never wanted
to be a pretty girl
mingling in tidepools
of other pretty girls

I want to rise matchless
against the posing stars
scintillating in my flame
branding your secrets
with fingertip perfume

and you will smell me
in the center of a thousand pretty smiles
and cry for depths and thirsting
when I make my own wine
and frost your glass with breath
of lip petal glossing

should you ever dive
the wilds of these waters
and swim open mouthed
against froth of pinked waves

when there is no salt
on other lips...

day's genesis peels skin
thieving obscurity
bleeding rays across windows
too drawn for dreams

could not

Published on 11th February 2010 12:00pm

inhale
exhale
mocking time
smelling flowers
that I despise
I watch the clock
and count the sighs

ignoring air
I could not die

the sun is cold
and dreams unkind
bring signs and dread
I can't deny
I squint to see
still lamp black blind

ignoring light
I could not die

I eat fresh graves
to sympathize
and choke on words
without goodbye
spit out the tears
they leave behind

ignoring warm
I could not die

I sleep...

Song of the Hollow House

Published on 10th February 2010 10:12pm

Umber dreams and hollow houses
Lay hushed in dusk, perfumed
Blackberry vines choke the porches
In lightless darkling mood
Resigned, to strangled surrender
The bramble holds me, too

The bramble holds me, too.

White milky breast has turned to dust
The suckling lips, gone pale
Bleat a quivering lullaby
The barren cradle wails
Wrapped in wraithweb, the rocking chair
I cannot breech the veil

I cannot breech the veil.

Old willows bow in sorrowsong
The path is overgrown
Ghostprints lost, grow indifferent moss
To...

tears of men

Published on 8th February 2010 7:13pm

you bare your storms to me

I lash against the currents
and you give me your back

foundations shift
did we not build
upon the stones

the pull of grains from the shore
where sails have failed proud ships
their masts a heaving sigh
of grief and heavy waters

I sip at your drowning
and break over you

crash on heaving shoulders
where there is no salvage
from the bone littered depths
of fathers, sand and covenants
smashed in sick christening ...

angel smoke

Published on 8th February 2010 7:07pm

and I was not a child
worshipping barefoot breezes
given to the sunrise
of her bornagain

she was new earth blush

her freedoms were a stardance
of midnight constellations
and forgiveness was a song
that I could only hum

I cupped the laughter blind

catching angel smoke in nets
white wisps the still center
around which the universe
wrapped the fragile of my dreams

she smiled daylight redemption

and clover was a summered prayer
kneeling...

gehenna burning

Published on 6th February 2010 11:19am

this halo glimmers asphyxiate charms
to a slave of slipknot eros noosed

I wear his shackled freedom
and burn like ripe vagaries
plucked on gehenna afternoons

he plies my confession
parted lipped and loosed
spilling open ended conjuration

he casts sorceries for words
etched vertical across my back
staining merlot chaste

so I will hold my demons closer

and the slithered serpents tease my seams
pose to finger permissions
as I scatter on exodus wings
every good intention

firedancing
I...

bound

Published on 3rd February 2010 11:38pm

I am drawn with your wicked imaginings
skin sinned brimstone zephyr sketched
warm swept across dark waters
of curve and nape and cleft
burning down the temples

in gardens
of my deepest night

striped with the laces of verdant uttering
this parchment blushes her moan
a slave to quilled religion
I am baptized in tongues
your exegetic doll

swallowing puddles
of your ink

grant me the saliva of your poem words
and I will writhe beneath them
freedom is anathema
pressed between your leather ...

cotton

Published on 3rd February 2010 9:26pm

I cry for you
to lap my soft sadness
into wailing peaks
of needyou

arched wanting leaks
on breasts and thighs
and slicks me lonely hurting

I push against your pulse and plead
for deeper

only deeper

until you are in my throat
plundering for poems
and I am in yours

tasting me
in the glisten of your lips
and tonguing your heart again

your balm soaks me
and soothes the furl of toes
laying me apart and purple

contracting to choke
on the smooth of your emotion ...
