For Jane Schaberg
Mary,
only fourteen now
but done in by Imperium.
Panthera’s seed was planted well
against your will
and now, to your regret, you know
you're swelling with his bastard spawn.
Do you, I wonder, rage against your god
who lets such things occur?
Do you demur?
Assume the blame
for your forced adultery?
Have you thought how Joseph,
expecting so to bring you undefiled into his home,
will be fraught and darkly shamed
when he comes to know
how much you’re stained,
so...

L'esprit de l'escalier 6/30
an undiscovered narrative
the lace covers but not
enough that
a place downstairs
appears alive behind walls
and someone is a peer
at the curving
stairs
shutters
between poles appearing as
glimpses of bouncy foot
sneakers
rubber
skidding tires black
white trim
a succession in
movements
through bannisters
narrow
blurred around the edges
excitement
hurry
shock
which?
i wish i could hourglass
then what i said just a second later

Retracted Confession
You set the house on fire
Since you’ve been gone
My head’s been lighter
I don’t miss you
You’re a fucking liar
I can finally breathe now
You’re not around
I thought you could be there for me
But you can’t even take care of yourself
Maybe we both need help
You’re coming home in few days
I don’t want to see you
You know to many things
I told you all my secrets
When you were away
Because I didn’t have to deal
With seeing your face
Why can’t you just stay
With...

A MAN TO HOLD
Our reality forbade me from kissing your lips
And stroking your hair with my fingertips.
All I could do was hold your hand
When I traveled the distance to a different land
Just to see you for a quick little hour
And I gladly took that power.
How I longed to know how you kissed
And a touch of a man, oh how I missed.
How much it pained me, you have no clue,
To not be able to cuddle up with you.
Sitting across from you, my mind slowly would drift away
And all we had for memories were conversations from day to day.
...

To not be able to cuddle up with you.

After That Certain Bomb Was Dropped
After that certain
bomb was dropped down on Japan's
own Hiroshima,
the blast produced a deadly
mushroom cloud killing millions.

Patience
I can see you seek me to acknowledge you, why so eager for me to see you?
Eager to prove me wrong?
How sweet, but you can be whomever this is to the others. Play them like fools who witness a different person everytime.
A person whom is more presentable and likeable than who I know you are.
I suppose it would be important to get the one person who has seen the real you to be just as fooled as the rest who believe this whole facade from the start.
The person who's witness the you that you desperately want to prove as better person than...

Rendexvous
He has a big date tonight, a reunion actually. One that is way overdue. He’s known he needed to reconcile, but he’s just been cowardly, if he’s going to be honest with himself. But he simply has to see her one more time no matter what; he’s always known that and now the solution is suddenly so clear.
There have been plenty of opportunities but he’s been scattered. His mind has been so foggy. So many good memories buried under the smudge of a cascade of mistakes. Countless nights spent looking for the bottom of a bottle. He’s not even sure how long it’s been. It’s all too...

Our party came with drunken favors
I saw you at the party & lost you in the crowd
Drinks in our system made the advances undeniable
Eye contact a few times made the games begin
You seen the attempts & gave reason to continue
In inebriated states of mind we saw only each with the same Intentions
Friends on both sides saw this & tried to pivot our moments
You partied your body to exhaustion & you were safe
I parted your body to relax & be when you came too
(The body party we both enjoyed)
Drinks in our system made the advances undeniable
Eye contact a few times made the games begin
You seen the attempts & gave reason to continue
In inebriated states of mind we saw only each with the same Intentions
Friends on both sides saw this & tried to pivot our moments
You partied your body to exhaustion & you were safe
I parted your body to relax & be when you came too
(The body party we both enjoyed)

the none affair
The none affair
The celebration ran into a Dogger bank that had
been trawled of fishy life and turned into windblown sand
of the endlessly repeated.
Take-away food and Portuguese soap triteness was
the name of the monotony.
Red-eyed by watching tediousness in action, time for bed
hoping a dream of glory would restore disappointment.
Eight hours of pre-death, the thought landscape was dark.
The morning had cold sun on the verandah, a day had gone
never to return, swallowed up by the monolithic time
The celebratory bottle of wine...

Otherworldly Memories Part V: The Two Kingdoms
- Otherworldly Memories Part V: The Two Kingdoms -
The years passed swiftly following the advent of my transformation, a thing that became over time, to me both spiritual as well as physical. I began to practice with and hone better the use of my enhanced third eye, and the mechanical augmentations felt for the most part as natural as my biological attributes. During certain months, I would retreat unto the tower at Ynys Gwydr in order to avoid causing any sort of distress when I trained myself both physically and mentally to become more at one with the body I now possessed.

Today I Saw a Man Who Should Not Die
Today I saw a man who should not die,
he wore the cuffs and shackles of white gown care,
thin fingers
fondling the button that triggers the pump
that feeds him smiles.
He bared his chest to show us the pipes
of great science running through him,
the pipes that feed him smiles.
Today I saw a man who sees pain
walking about the room, he has studied
and mastered it: when to press the button
to stop
the demon from jumping onto his bed
and still remain awake -- to dream.
...
