soft prismatic sunset
veiled in a vespertine fog
a lone loon calls

I lost you in the fog —your touch still burning through my veins, blood bleeding rapidly beneath my skin, a fever that never was, and never it will be. 
 
Come back my love from the veined skies of older dreams.

The preparation
the makeup
a spectacular dress
In this scene in this ritual
the least I can do
is be #chivalrous

They are there
In the depths
Down in the #aphotic
Cold blooded
and serrated teeth
Keep an iron boot
Upon your foot
Upon their head
They are the grotesque
No conscience
Not the moderate
Brutes of the oily depths
nefarious precarious

He lay in wait
With his suave
Gray and white suit
Spins his chair with flair
As his eyes are stalking her
Not a moral man
In fact almost reptilian
He'll take what he can
From the woman who thinks
that the clothes make the man

‘I can’t believe you talked me into robbing a liquor store.’

‘We gotta move fast. The chloroform doesn’t #last too long.I got the cash from the register.’

‘Grab that bottle of tequila, I’ll get some vodka. Hey, is this whiskey?’

‘Yeah. But not as whiskey as wobbing a bank.’

Like gray pillars
they gathered round
Last rites from their ears
to their eyes
to the ground
I never shared their life
when you were here
and now you're gone
In the back row
I listen to your song
hood up eyes closed
with the headphones on

the blossom the heat
before things felt cold
fingers of winter

It isn't the rose
or the band of gold
It's in the poetry we write
the passion of the prose
Together you and me
through perdition and in ecstasy
nothing else matters
as long as we are we

From a cauldron of despair
They seek solace from the heat
Open the doors
Let them feel the cool breeze
Or a drop of cold
from a healthy finger
There may be small fires
from fleeing scorched feet
But green pastures restore
as a place for the meek

sapling on the floor
a fledgling individual
even the forest knows
the tallest of the tall
protect you and nurture you
you're part of the whole
