RUNNER-UP:
gardenlover
un~sexually yours
Inseparable
The moment we gazed
Into each other's eyes
Eternity wept
Tears of joy
As I held you close
Our heart beats synchronized
To beat as one
Our souls intertwined
Partook of the same love
Drank their hearts content
Married in their eyes and
Vowed never to part
Till death come
To tear us apart
The moment we gazed
Into each other's eyes
Eternity wept
Tears of joy
As I held you close
Our heart beats synchronized
To beat as one
Our souls intertwined
Partook of the same love
Drank their hearts content
Married in their eyes and
Vowed never to part
Till death come
To tear us apart

what hands are
when the children speak about touching
its so innocent, you realize, something you have lost
for when you imagine hands in hands
it comes along with gasping moans and rhythmic thrusts
your vision so coloured that no longer can it hold
the idea that hands can be gentle and warm
when did you lose yourself so far off the deep end
that the touch of a human, meant the caress of a lover
and the caress of a lover meant a fire in your loins
so there's pain and there's sadness and something of guilt
but when your palms fit so tightly together
trying to hold onto what's left of your reality
you ache on the inside because where your beating heart should be
awaits a demon of desire, its maw open in wanting
eyes shut tight you think back to a time where there was something more
where you can imagine hands as gentle and warm
when the children speak about touching
its so innocent, you realize, something you have lost
for when you imagine hands in hands
it comes along with gasping moans and rhythmic thrusts
your vision so coloured that no longer can it hold

when did you lose yourself so far off the deep end
that the touch of a human, meant the caress of a lover
and the caress of a lover meant a fire in your loins

trying to hold onto what's left of your reality
you ache on the inside because where your beating heart should be
awaits a demon of desire, its maw open in wanting
eyes shut tight you think back to a time where there was something more
where you can imagine hands as gentle and warm
you idolise me today but soon enough you'll grow tired of kneeling
i
the empire of temptation
defied gravity
planets aligned
strung by locks of burgundy
asteroids plunged from her shoulders
pleiades eyes
shot like comets through defences
the core of my force field agape
holes spluttered butterflies
spawned from cosmic clouds
ii
i lay beneath her
transfixed by the depth of majesty
her galactic reign over night
i did not fall
i did not grow weary till daybreak
shielded by the blood of dawn
we faded into light and dreamt of taurus
gravity could not stop
the empire of temptation

One
Will
in walls
trapped by chambers
holding
autumn auburn eyes
were it just my skin you took
I'd surely die
letting myself slip away
these atoms owned
sinew, fibre
sewn
O core
the very bone
miats'yel
sway us
wherever One runs
i know each and every song
here today
there tomorrow
many roads mini-towns
Babe...
where i sleep
beneath
You
can hear
every gear...
working the circle
turning
You to me, I to You
come kismet
lets burn by every
licking flame
wonderment, height and whim
barefoot
rain
dipping toe
splash of puddle
reverie reigns
And I
captive
The Girl with no Name
One by one
You peeled them off
I pushed and prayed
And heard you scoff
The laugh so cruel
As you took my names
And quickly threw them
Into the flames
First, the shirt
And then the bra
Confidence, then beauty
You stripped it all
Next the pants
The dirty undies
To take my height
And on my knees
One by one
You stripped me
Please
Dont make me show you
All of me
Oh, what now?
Now the shoes, the socks
Isnt it enough
To peer the frock?
Jusy open the book
Read the pages
Of all my selves
In different stages
Fooling everyone
Of various ages
With cloths to match
The varying misstatements
But i guess you prefer
To look at the source
Strip it down
Shame it with force
How does it look like from there
How does IT look like?
One by one
