You tasted like dread & discontent Or was that me sucking on my own tongue? When our belly is split our entrails tell the truth, don't they? #poetry #vss365 #vsspoem #HeidiGloom #elude

Doom Poetry
I had a knack for cherry-picking madness
always riding the wave of an idiot crush
& you, showing up at my door wondering if my mind was still in the gutter
& if an old scab needed picking at

Sometimes I don't swallow
Sometimes I eat the worm
Will you chew the purity out of me?
Upon being gifted a bottle of Mezcal Tequila
There is no worm, too touristy, he says

The heart wants
what the heart wants
until it has it
& doesn’t want it anymore
that is always the worst part
of the cycle of longing

A #sparrow falls from a tree
God, did you notice?
Do you even see me?

Good 🌞writers & poets. From the #Poetry Archives. It happened to fit today's #vss365 Saving Sylvia Plath...who perhaps could not be saved, even if I had a #wormhole
Plath gets a nod in Snake Venom as well.

We had all this pain
we didn't know what to do with
except to let it harden inside of us

Crawling on our bellies into a #wormhole

she was a spark
in the dark
in a room full of moths

Good morning, poets & writers. ☕️
It's the one-year anniversary of your death, this is for you.

It was almost love, love notes....

& there we were, prying the pages of the bible apart
like a ribcage, trying to get to the heart of it all
trying to hear the whisper of God
or the slander of the devil
Do you feel my want?

The pig said to me
are you going to wear that stupid human suit again

eating puppeteers like #nostalgia

Good morning, writers & poets. I was drifting in the space where the popcorn ceiling looked like clouds. A #starscape of glow-in-the-dark stickers.
