My mind is a clusterfuck,

A birage of fuckity fuck fucks,

A thought process, sick with tourettes,

 

And it swarms and it swells,

With what if's? and God Damn It's!

And I get no rest.

So the night rolls over us, so dark, so cold

 

Without a heart, without a soul, so what!

 

Perhaps were just cut glass or ice jewels melting under a hot sun

 

And just for fun we pretend to be diamonds or blood jewels

 

Splaying ourselves under the bright light hoping to become more

 

So what, this is life, life’s always trying to steal the best of someone

You took of my mother's dignity and stole me from her womb. 

And among your shores, 

I have, on bloodied hands, climbed an endless Everest of your design. 

But where were you as I taught myself? 

Because it was you who bred me for excellence.

Who in need deeds to understand

While inside Heather I AM her man

As mourning melts Cumming snow

We drip our sweet red juicy souls

Hairs entangle in hands of rage

Inside a tight and sultry cage

Nights about to devour dawn

If I were you I’d hold on!

I'm searching for ways to make this episode productive

Peeling off wallpaper, looking for clues

I found the picture that you drew in pencil on the plaster

On the day that we moved in, before we even had a mattress

Go out,

Fill the world with pictures

Painted on the silence

Of a line break.

I keep anticipating that moment
outside time
when my body releases yours
after it has held you so tight
and you become your own

These flowers here, do you like them?
The petals, the leaves and the stem?
I picked them down by Sunset Street
We always passed there with slow feet
I wish I knew more about your favourite things dear
Now, I can only hope you like these flowers here

I stand by the sea

away from Hectic City; 

My heart is all at once free.

 

I listen to the waves, 

I’m no longer a slave, 

Only for inspiration does my heart crave.

Soft scent of mimosa floats through air

dotted with firefly lights

while the orchestra of crickets and

cicadas provide background

accompaniment.

sometimes we miss things the most
when we’re right in the middle of them
we could be swimming in the most beautiful waters
and we can’t see the size of the ocean
only that we’re paddling for dear life

Insatiable

The notion long dragged and fantasized about
lays unrelenting quagmires on mind clouds

It seizes, with ambition and curiosity, the future;
what it left behind, and questioned with intrigue and valor

What good comes not from battles with the rain?
Hovering sun spots found in the water puddle burning again
