I opened her box & you fled
I tried so hard
To break into your dreams
Used our shards
To pick at the seams
I moaned your name
Midst pleas of desire
Then I came
Tingling body on fire
Now even your ghost
has left; I’m alone.
You, beloved the most,
To the netherworld flown
I, wandering midst graves,
(Your scent as my aura)
As trapped in a cave
With this box of pandora.
To break into your dreams
Used our shards
To pick at the seams
I moaned your name
Midst pleas of desire
Then I came
Tingling body on fire
Now even your ghost
has left; I’m alone.
You, beloved the most,
To the netherworld flown
I, wandering midst graves,
(Your scent as my aura)
As trapped in a cave
With this box of pandora.

encROACHment
secret night carrier
of a million germs,
tiptoeing in the dark,
soliciting the stark
mama full of squirms,
as though they'd buried her
alive.
zithered above her bed,
panic tigress leap,
for fear that nasty thing
would zap her with his sting.
one dishevelled heap
plummeting in a dead
nosedive.
and the night thief slips into his crack;
when the scream dust settles, will be back
...
of a million germs,
tiptoeing in the dark,
soliciting the stark
mama full of squirms,
as though they'd buried her
alive.
zithered above her bed,
panic tigress leap,
for fear that nasty thing
would zap her with his sting.
one dishevelled heap
plummeting in a dead
nosedive.
and the night thief slips into his crack;
when the scream dust settles, will be back
...

The One That Follows
The one that follows is never a follower called
Or a person chosen
It’s a shadow cast behind you
A reminder, distressing sometimes
Carrying itself on pavements you wander
On rooftops you climb
To escape the one that follows
Or at least, forget it some hours
When it shifts, perhaps even vanishing
For a fragment of time
We’ve all had a shadow
Since the day we were born
And yet, never warned
Of the one that follows
Regrets unrelenting
And mistakes repeating
So out of control
We wonder how...
Or a person chosen
It’s a shadow cast behind you
A reminder, distressing sometimes
Carrying itself on pavements you wander
On rooftops you climb
To escape the one that follows
Or at least, forget it some hours
When it shifts, perhaps even vanishing
For a fragment of time
We’ve all had a shadow
Since the day we were born
And yet, never warned
Of the one that follows
Regrets unrelenting
And mistakes repeating
So out of control
We wonder how...
