naked angel



I don’t want to be formally introduced,
nor even talk to you.
I want to steal you, pick you up & carry you to the
nearest bed chamber; lock the door & eat the key.
keep you prisoner for merely a thousand millennia –
by then I’ll have had my fill of you.

my passion has always been a furnace in my belly.
soldier of deviance, without honor or regret,
I have lusted after women: virgins & whores,
to be used & abandoned.
and I remember not one face or one name.

I see you in the unobtainable distance, & you
transform the flame inside me to an inferno –
I soar like a comic book hero,
sun garbed creature, beyond Icarus.

were you deployed here by heaven, for a sacred purpose?
send them your resignation, you won’t be returning.
I will burn away your wings, so those
gracious feathers will not conceal your sex.

we will make our kingdom in an ivory tower;
I will nurture myself by your touch & your kiss.
I will guard the skies when you sleep,
and if you dream, I will be there.


I write poetry out of loneliness –
I write so that you will find me…
