taste my truth
it's blood
it's breath
it's sweat
it flows
unhindered
juxtapose the "probably not"
kick out vicious wishes
slide off my tongue
my eyes undress
take you in
you fill my head with violent defiance
and you keep on coming.

untitled 2
chase me, shake me
take me, make me
bequeath beneath
the thickness of insinuations
situations meet moments
flashes of blindness
come inside
i don't know you and i don't want to
just a lick of salty sin
take this grace and wipe it clean
your excuses swirl in my ears
i just want to smile and tell you
i just need you to press
in deep past my lies
slam them to the wall
throw them to the floor
disseminate the blaze incarnate
unchaste and wasted.

Today my heart went blind
blind from the madness of you
stripped out
the black in the hole of my soul
blind from the madness of you
they cry out for blood
but there's none left to give
none left to get from this rock.

Honey Die
shocked delight
clamor please for it
my dear dear stop me now
i'd know love if it spit
in there beware
at night 20/20 blind
honey honey die
lie, taken in hysterical stride
masticate what's bitten off
secrete what's force fed
wrapped up in what got you off
slit into tiny bits
of pride's pussy pie
honey honey die
dry caked-on china
scrubbed bleeding knuckles
buckle under, line up
spliced belly chuckles
take it like a missionary
piss on cherries cherries
sad belief, goodbye
honey honey die
black blood behind the eyes
honey honey die

BLINK (again)
Ravished by a simple sigh
Your voice cracks, hesitant at hanging up
"...i love you..."
And yet again I'm propelled
Into manifold visions of how one is
Supposed to feel
Sentience falling
Failing
Flailing all aglow
My reasons ambivalent
My courage reluctant
I succumb without a thought to the inevitable
Breathe so softly
"...you too..."
God, this is crazy!
But beautiful and freeing
So...blink
A quiet blush
A sudden rush
And emptied now, you touch
I start, I start to blink
Centered on a thought, a phrase, a word
You use a lot..."but"
Skipping past scruffy shuffling schoolboys
Going grim-faced to confession
A regression
Seen my mind traipsing awash in
Dirty spasmodic ramblings
No one knows...but,
You let me off on love's plea bargain
Jargon jaded and faded
Bloated butterflies and beaters with blades
Take over my heart in one fell swoop
See what you do to me?
So...blink
A quiet blush
A sudden rush
And emptied now, you touch
I start, I start to blink
Cater to a nervous whim
Anchored to a broken limb
An inward outburst, you burst
My bubble of sadness
Stoic and sterile
floundering fantastically in
A different kind of schism- risen
Taken by an angel's kiss
Awakened
AWAKENED
Floating chaste as snow
Suddenly I know...
Blink
A quiet blush
A sudden rush
And emptied now, you touch
I start, I start to blink

BLINK (original version)
Like dancing in heaven
Singing alone on a crowded street
"When you love someone
All your saved-up wishes" surface
And suddenly
Your dreams seem quite possible
See, see our stars there in the hazy morning mist
Sky fading from blue to pink, they fly
I think I see your smile in the reflection
I think your name is splashed across tomorrow's moon
You pour your soul out into my open hands
I cherish it softly like an energy I've never known
And we run together- clasping hands
into the sun-rise.

IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME
a swelling strain a violin
so oddly bohemian and wonderfully reckless
i the flint-like you the steel
the spark an explosion, emotion of wonder
how you knew that i could be
all you needed you knew
but you turned broken twitching blindly back
to your cleopatra and her patronizing penciled-in gaze
an unreal holly but i once knew mussolini
you were late where you been did she win
i tend, i play the fool
right down to the battered gestation
tissues of the staring sun
making creating me, quietly hating me
yeah they lied but they wanted you to
and anyway you can't get tired of a thing
before you have it.

BEHIND THE RED
You shutter
So it's a game now
Such a foul waste of unworthy life
Do I believe you
Covered in a pall of filthy rags
And a thousand charms
What good are numbers
and promises
When the ones you've cried for die for you
Have you come back already?
If so I must have missed you
Lost you
Behind the red
Behind the veins in these closed eyes
Behind the red
Behind the need in the locked closet of my mind
You read it?
Was it good now?
Or a quick waste of precious time
Cool and calculated
Sped through and thrown away
Like a novel filled with lust and shame
And I don't think much
Of it, or of you
I did the same with yours
With great intentions you soaked me in it
and lost me
Behind the red
Behind the veins in these closed eyes
Behind the red
Behind the need in the locked closet of my mind

STRIPPED
Tell me later when you're more than just a muffled voice Stumbling over zip codes and cold cream creamed corn and corned beef beef sticks stiff necks soaking blood wet set on salty scarlet wings couldn't commit or deny come in or reply there's nobody there Who am I to see what isn't there, lapping with heated tongues at the pink flow from the breast of a world without much more to give and a lot left to take Etched in eternal submission or fear out here hope could easily atrophy slowly drinking up soaking in a fictional past pleasing pandering to amateur laughter from the fifth row only visible the famous grin of alice's friend crashing arched eyebrow raised enemy little girl's eating a big black wolf jumping the gulf over kill the piggies and bury their bodies the bricks were all useless the mortar ignited surfeited sir suffer the slighted i skipped and i slipped now I'm stripped down to everything that is me carefully lost notes fumbling down a shy alley on a curious whim a wondrous wedding of life and of limb said I'm stripped true said I to her yes traitor I've changed I'm no longer your liar yes traitor I've changed I'm no longer your LIAR.

You possess me
Consume me
Drown me
Fill me
This is all I ask
Devour me
I want this
To taste of life
Until I die
It is coming
In the look
You rise over
I go under
Swimming, I let go
I don't breathe
The life-force leaves
The eyes remain
Beautiful.
