falling in love
finishes
A varnished soul
with watery breezes
like misty kisses
on my skin;
puddled promises
wont sink in.
flaws sanded
against the grain,
knots expose every uglyscar
streaming every beautiful thought; trickles
to strip it bare,
erase the heart
already there
babbling and barking
hearts and thoughts
stepping on eggshell’s
shining show.
furnished heart and home
movein, backout
I remain whole.
fall in love with me
and you will know
how to fill...

a wake in sleep
Michael, Michael,
may I sleep
in hibernated shelters keep
first snowfall finds me watching Halloween
with cranked up heat
in my Jeep
winters keep
cranked up heap
temp has rose
each petal withered to repose
budding infant chlorophyll
autumn destined to enclose
winters weep
springs to reap
wild winded doubt that rose
each petal knout to oppose
each wing lined by nights decay
butterfies hurried by lights dismay
fluttersby drought endless scene
angels shout endless...

these disconnects
don't ask if I like it
don’t act like I’m hot
don't look at me
with those dead-baby eyes
don't moan
through hissing
nostrils and those
caulked lips
(///)
like
movie sex
you might get
a nip slip, maybe
make out, scene
fades black, then
no one
climaxes
no one sleeps
when it ends

eight, nine......ten
first true love
bit my lip
trickles the blood
it’s timely banter
weeks turn to days
out, pour hours
then true went sour
it bit my tongue
then said
only to myself, now the more dripping red
tongue in lashing pain
one to ten sounds more sane
but at nine
i stopped and pondered this
lips now wet poised
lipstick smeared kiss
a miss
what of a laugh
might a joke be best
is not humor
a manner of advanced defence?
sarcasm
slapstick
some practical
trick?
a riddle ...

I like myself
I like myself more
than anyone else
I know. I’ll never love me.
I’m aware of what love does
I would give my all
until there is nothing left
of my heart.
when that’s not enough
would he let me go?
could we go back?
would I be able to
run past that bench
where
he ate every donut, without pain?
could I love
another? would
he let someone else in
having known
I wasn’t enough for me?

Hardlyhome
there are warm welcomes when I get home
there are peaceful greetings on arrival
with
thank you’s
signs of appreciation
serenity
tranquility
with,out
tension
rage
awkwardness
all,though
sumtimes
hate equals
confusion
contaminated and clogged brains
sometimes rain
mostly pain
a lot of complaints with
undressed hugs
under dry ceilings
naked positive facial expressions
yet not
alwaysknot
blessings
but blessed to adapt to this unfairness
there...

a needle felt yesterday
a needle felt yesterday
swelling balks
unto the
crowd
to ascertain
that binary
sound
flutter eyes
churned
butter thighs
upon seesaws
pivoting
fair skin
cauter
prize sawn
asunder
dressing pride
entails winds
set in
fresh wounds
wound up
on dead flesh
leaves needle
marks, pure love
scrubbed in skin
seared moths
flung onto
a wall
quavers musical
clinks which flicker

absolutely relative
we are universal
decay,
where relative
and the absolute
crossed borders
a confused species
that loves and grows
in decline
breathing
through surfaces
as point particles
drawn to
white dwarfs heat
extinguished
as
the black hole absorbs
all
and radiates
a minuscule
of a universe
called
love

waw
woe to me, this relative state
in awe of speculation
i,in woe
of me in awe
with countless revelations
woe to you, absolute babe
a waw of orchestration
her to see,
know woes
in me
are woes in expectation

now
now
here is me
even in eden garden sprouted
life after volcanic tears poured
out walking ashes line
a test of resolve
test of yourself
betwixt thoughts of were and when
only now will where you’re suppose to be
flowers on decay
showers on
the may nots
the nevernots
heresy
hear I say
here is me

dragon caves and smoky shadows
i am the great and powerful
dragon. meet me in
the middle since you
haven’t seen my ends
smouldered waves
sharp pointed tail and tooth
like unconfirmed realities,
looking back,
she asks: “Mr. Heisenberg,
would you consider me as a typical
standard,or casual model?”
He responded with
uncertainty
as she walked, where she did her
little turn on Schrödinger’s catwalk.
taking zero steps
faced with unusual alacrity
seething double slits
confined to confirmed unrealities

crystallize and lips
crystallize and lips
our lips
strongly correlated
in
warmth; infused velvet petals
taste hues of
blood red
left cold
trickles the iron thorns
bitten
washed away
in bitter embrace
insulated in samariumonious
discovery
steels harden moment
stolen in seconds
