You must know
You must know there are times
I will not choose you over the poem;
nor your email, text or pouting silence
over the verse;
Bulging zippers will not sway me
nor swollen suitcases by the entrance.
If you want to be first in someone’s life
you must know, it can never be mine.
I'll never be the faithful wife
skinning vegetables at the sink;
a gimlet eye’d grandmother supervising,
starched apron and recipe splayed
submissively across the counter -
contents spooned carefully;
the roast, flayed,...

Just for you
If Shakespeare were here
you would be his tragedy
Mozart and Beethoven
you would be their symphony
Galileo would gaze into the stars
and give a planet your name
Christopher Columbus
would sail the ocean blue
and Neil Armstrong
would fly you to the moon
while Hemingway writes
a bestseller
all about you
The Great Houdini
would chain himself up
and face...

Witches Spell
Let it rain with lemon pepper
And clear it out with a heart of a heifer
At the sound of a bullets bang
And the cry of a stab from a wolf’s fang
With the burns of the scorching vinegar
As the ashes fall from the broken cigar
Pour down the waters from up above
As the sweet victory and mercy of love
Can hum a tune of his last days about
As soon as the light from the candle blows out
Watches as his enemy falls down
Knowing Macduff has won the crown
On the ground, Macbeth lays
Thinking about his savage days
For there’s no sympathy...
And clear it out with a heart of a heifer
At the sound of a bullets bang
And the cry of a stab from a wolf’s fang
With the burns of the scorching vinegar
As the ashes fall from the broken cigar
Pour down the waters from up above
As the sweet victory and mercy of love
Can hum a tune of his last days about
As soon as the light from the candle blows out
Watches as his enemy falls down
Knowing Macduff has won the crown
On the ground, Macbeth lays
Thinking about his savage days
For there’s no sympathy...

To Lady Macbeth
My darling wife
Who’s composure among madness was kept all too well
What am I to do
Forfeit the fate the merchants of destiny have sold me
Relinquish these visions of power
These visions of blood
Your passing smells the foulest of all my deeds
But fair is foul
And foul is fair
If this my love
Is my price for king and country
Then above all the madness surrounding the air
Evidence would say I have lost my mind
Should I not pursue
Should I not grab destiny by the throat
And I will run down all who oppose my right
I will turn all of...

memento mori
you died..
just two words to say something undescribable,
mandatory and massive..
you died and i'm still here and the reason?
i won't know or maybe i don't want to know..
"you died" shakespeare wrote once
nothing more
nothing less
but it was enough..
*memento mori = remember you will die
† to my dearest 22/2/2010
