A Love Letter To Yoruba God Obatala From Yoruba Goddess Oshun
Mm… if I let you make slow and passionate love to me tonight handsome man
Giving unto you, my one and only sacred chance
Such a beautiful celestial dance
Of hearts, minds, encircled by our entwine souls
Moving through the cosmos on cruise control
Are you that man, who’ve I’ve waited for, who will give me a part of your world
The mother of your pearls
Whispering me your salvation, granting me your promises, devoid of pressure or demands
Would you know what I like by the softens you hear in my voice
Telling me you...
Giving unto you, my one and only sacred chance
Such a beautiful celestial dance
Of hearts, minds, encircled by our entwine souls
Moving through the cosmos on cruise control
Are you that man, who’ve I’ve waited for, who will give me a part of your world
The mother of your pearls
Whispering me your salvation, granting me your promises, devoid of pressure or demands
Would you know what I like by the softens you hear in my voice
Telling me you...

Let’s Take Each Other To Hell One Last Time
I’ve always had a way
with the petrified and scared
despite the way my body pulses
aposematic signals
from the scarred knuckles and hulking frame
to the frown lines etched into my face
and I wonder if it’s
because of a sympathetic-nervous-system response
reminiscent of the times I hid in a closet and read books
my small boy body discoloured in the hue
of the beating I took
adrenaline still pounding through my trembling flesh
or if it was because I didn’t care if I got hurt ...
with the petrified and scared
despite the way my body pulses
aposematic signals
from the scarred knuckles and hulking frame
to the frown lines etched into my face
and I wonder if it’s
because of a sympathetic-nervous-system response
reminiscent of the times I hid in a closet and read books
my small boy body discoloured in the hue
of the beating I took
adrenaline still pounding through my trembling flesh
or if it was because I didn’t care if I got hurt ...

Amnesia and the taste of pleather
My love notes on your shirt

and the feel of your

scared the shit out of me. again.

but can you l*ve me in the dark
I couldn’t pay the light bill
when you left
so I stand in the dark
like a wraith
waiting for a taste
of an unwilling soul
and you came in
using your cell-phone flashlight
like you were in a rock concert,
or hunting for buried treasure,
or seeking initials carved into
a dusty mantle.
my pupils split as you
brought harsh light
into a world
only lit by missed dreams
small plinks of blood
puddled against my
shoeless feet,
my fingers
splintered cacti ...

Softy Floating On The Compass To His Heart
Mm... you are my Dark Java hero
When I’m laying naked in my bed
Hair tousled all over my pillow
Wetting my two fingers
Slowing dragging it downward to my sacred chasm
Exploring the gratification of my creamy lust
Ravishing in the arched rainfall trickling to my fingers
Nirvana essence kissing the dewy panting of my reverberating Chi
Oh, sweet mercy yes
The offering of your flesh starts in the steam of our cloak
Cleansing the silhouette of our souls
As we entwine...

Slowing dragging it downward to my sacred chasm

Mmm...Sighing Here
There came a gallant man breathlessly I awaited
Gently kisses my mind, feelings never dissipated
Magnetic words felt to my fluttering heart
Loving the erratic pulsate from the mental jumpstart
When daylight has gone
And darkness is in full bloom
He dreams of me for my alluring flames to softy swoon
Visiting my soul, as he lays me upon the canvas of his bed, the silhouette of our spirits dancing within the sanctuary of his candle lit bedroom

Power Of Love
They say love can bring you up in the sky.
In cloud nine, making you question why.
They say it can bring you down.
Or twist your life upside down.
That they can remove your frown.
Or give you the opportunity to wear a white gown.
Love can have a lot of meanings.
And a lot of results,too.
We crave it,as social beings.
And sometimes it makes us feel like a fool.
It can make you write out your heart.
Or throw a cupid's dart.
It can make you do things you otherwise wouldn't.
Or turn your frown upside down. ...

letter to an almost lover
You: Do you want to see a real life plane crash?
Me: Fuck yeah
Hey, you
I thought about you today
for the first time in a while
pictured your face in my mind
that my brain still interprets as friend
though stranger is more accurate
I told my boyfriend I missed you
and he looked at me curiously
and asked why we aren't friends anymore
I didn't really need to answer
all three us know
exactly when you chose
to stop picking up my phone calls
and I can't even hate you for it ...

Closing Time

Last drinks shouts the tender
drink em up
it's time to be out
I need to get home
so sip the last of your beer
slam down the last shots
head toward the outside
the chill of the night
fought off by the incoherence of
alcohols numb
the wisps of the smoke machine swirls
and clings like sad fog
to the crusted carpets
where booze and blood
bile and tears have stained my memories
with exquisite times and the haunted agony
of a thousand-thousand poets ...

The Alchemy
I got caught in alchemy
But in the end it was only me
Our conversations were like magic
I’ll miss them the most it’s oh so tragic
So many similarities
Even laced with hilarities
I could not see how you didn’t feel this too
A meeting of the minds as well as bodies too
So much chemistry when we kissed
How is it wrong to feel such bliss
I was so sure you felt the fire
Of our infernal desire
I did not mean to cause any pain
I threw myself...

Mm... I Hear You, My Love
You may want to remove your hat for this
What, no time for modesty, my love, may my soft incantation sail under your nose in its embracing animation
Stand there, and let my whispers catch your eyes in its drift
Shh... yes, allow my soft winds to surround your soul
Inhale, slowly exhale
Mm... you feel it too, yes, my love that is the feeling worth the heart and my mind to console
Who am I really taking too
Unto ether, may my breaths be mingled as savored sweetness from this Goddess' Sugar Halo
