Poet Introduction
She's snark, And spice, And salt. She's firs and ferns. She's lakewater. And teal. And lungs of frosting winter moss.

Unaired
You were pushing the imagined mend
Forcing frayed ends to kiss again
Sowing gardens we cannot tend
Planting non-existent plans
Rockinghorses roar within
But it rains each time I pretend
Delusions of dew dawn dominion upon us
Oh, that we'd don lips to drink...
My attic stays crammed with antique anxieties
Airless
I'm an impaired heiress
(At least one of us owns a looking glass)
These eggshells never bear my weight
You laid them to impede my gait
My soul will never stand to wait
All dreams...
Forcing frayed ends to kiss again
Sowing gardens we cannot tend
Planting non-existent plans
Rockinghorses roar within
But it rains each time I pretend
Delusions of dew dawn dominion upon us

Airless
I'm an impaired heiress
(At least one of us owns a looking glass)
These eggshells never bear my weight
You laid them to impede my gait
My soul will never stand to wait

Shedding My Nest
There is a budding throb
Weighty and rich
Aching to spread a garnet scene
To deliver me special male mocking
For five days of jam in place of cream

Coarse
You pack sandcastles of gritty gray
In salted suppression
Staring
Glaring at me over your chasmal moats
So thus ebbs day
Leaving drawbridges up in watertight states
At night our fleshy tides steal them away
But you stay so stingingly skillful at forging new fortresses
In salted suppression
Staring
Glaring at me over your chasmal moats
So thus ebbs day
Leaving drawbridges up in watertight states
At night our fleshy tides steal them away
But you stay so stingingly skillful at forging new fortresses

Ruta
A frilled little killer
Arrangements for crowns
Cresting virgins in summer gowns
Sleep sweet sister
Blend imbued antidote
Restore chastity mislaid
Reform decor in floral tone
Rue
Oh Rue...
Revel down wombs
Absinthal
Liberty sullen of petals' coup
By Baltic suitor's wanton cue
Regret nips nerves
Sunday psalms beget cold sweats
Rue
The Rue...
Grace of tonics chill ...

Writers Are Assholes ;)
Write drunk, edit sober"
Sings our psalm until we're older
Phrases founded, firmly true...
Until this shit sucks all of you
A soul carved raw
Distilled delights
Bare and broken in the night
Uncorked spirits to uncurbed heights
****
(Yes, I wrote this drunk. And it's mostly self-deprecation haha! It's all love guys <3)

Incongruity
I passed a man with a gut today
He felt like grinning but held it in
Unlike his paunch
I pondered what ate at him
Ocean spray droops in dingy drapes
And some beaches fare no better
Dandelions might be weeds
But blondely their pageants pomp
While their manes wait to seed
The neighbor's sprinklers spit
Incessantly
And the mat of greenery must be costly
But requires discernment to diminish seasonably
There is even now
Surplus snowfall on certain peaks
Prudent in this...

The Standard Starstruck Solitude
Stars surface when we shut our eyes
Piercing like the sum of fears
Gas-lit chambers cast patterns aloft
While we repress our eternal heat
Elder light descends (ascends?)
To brush the sight of heedful humanity
Origins radiate
Remote
Extracting our kind's finest philosophies
Pendulous points parade
In gradient galactic discs
Sangria scapes neighbor heavenly planes
Suspended
Slung
In density beyond my mind
Indigo enigmas elude our stale experience
Oddity ochers ring perfect perimeters clockwise
...

Black & Silver
You creep like echos on my skin
Lost
A touch
A fallen beginning
I wrap around those memories
To only feel
To feel
I cling to feel...
Never needing to steal
I'll always be, your in-between
I'll always sing my soul to you
This is nothing like sweetness
But it's everything it left behind
I'll lie one part away
Blackening, deep, swelling secrets
Only for you
Ever for you
You'll never need to steal
You're still my moment in that rain...

The Veil In Us Is Tulle
Deja vu
Is breath beyond
A soul of yours murmuring
To the one you're dwelling innermost
Is breath beyond
A soul of yours murmuring
To the one you're dwelling innermost

f**kboy Slim
Her eagle eyes burned hot that night
Adamant jalapenos - jadeite
Such apt penetration...
Scything my motives - capsaicin
Mining my goals that were no jewels
To use her (more or less) like a mule
Peering down my-
Creeping. Covert. Carnal. Crags
Knowing I only wanted to shag
That I was only the six hundred and first hungry scumbag

Blameworthy Bourgeoisie
Tow ropes lug our lagging hopes,
Sagging slack
Wound 'round our backs
Stymieing our means to cope
We've all voted on their placement though
Hawks perch on worn wires
Overseers in ivory spires
We're awash in leading liars
Our pretty parts, castaway
Picked over by birds of prey
We engage mice minds
Scurrying for shelter
To stash such sorry lives
Surviving though deliberately blind
Scrimping limp scraps to line our holes...
Visionless vagrants on pointless placating patrols
Sagging slack
Wound 'round our backs
Stymieing our means to cope
We've all voted on their placement though
Hawks perch on worn wires
Overseers in ivory spires
We're awash in leading liars
Our pretty parts, castaway
Picked over by birds of prey
We engage mice minds
Scurrying for shelter
To stash such sorry lives

Sapphic
Soak your subtleties
In simmering sensuous sanctions
With me lazing easily eager
Upon ambient aubade
Secluded terraces
Becloud the moon like bedroom blinds
Drawn to confound inquisitive prying
From voyeur eyes
Hot springs soften skin
To drape 'round
Panting responsive torsos of inamorata
& entangled limbs
Flesh
Reflecting wryly
Crisp crescent light of
Cygnus smirking, his glowing intrigue
Playing out on a lyre of stars
Descending songs from milky heights ...
In simmering sensuous sanctions
With me lazing easily eager
Upon ambient aubade
Secluded terraces
Becloud the moon like bedroom blinds
Drawn to confound inquisitive prying
From voyeur eyes
Hot springs soften skin
To drape 'round
Panting responsive torsos of inamorata
& entangled limbs
Flesh
Reflecting wryly
Crisp crescent light of
Cygnus smirking, his glowing intrigue
Playing out on a lyre of stars
Descending songs from milky heights ...
