all of a sudden passion suddenly

Your suite image,
I captured,
released on a dying man.

"He is but an ounce of cocaine
and the sweet, red gaudiness is Vegas?"

His diseased heart,
malignant blood,
allowed him to speak like a bitter child --
with butterfly mouth,
wingless.

He called me beauty.
And you?
Unworthy.

My better-than attitude
is a beetle,
now crushed, and butterflies
go to the grave; we go on,
neither criminal nor sweet --
loving somewhere in the middle.

I like this. You're back on your game. :)
 
well... i was reading my older poems that I have saved and they blew me away. i was darn good. :D i wish i could still write that way. i'm rusty. :mad:

That's how I've been feeling, but watching Jamison come back to it and get so good after a month of writing every day convinced me--that's what we have to do. Just keep at it, every day.

Every day! OH!

what it was like when I had time to write every day.

Goddess knows I am rusted through. ok. every day.

Lickable Fuck (Or senses in the age of Cyberpunk)

Cholera-tongued moon,
how you reach me
through London's steampunk

vista of zepellin-round
skyscrapers and lickable
cathedrals. How you reach me

through the labyrinth
of mechanical minotaurs,
and stores where Dante

is on display 24/7. Cholera
tongued moon, how you reach me.
 
beauty is forged
with the sweat on my back
the ache in my joints
then you hand me a stone
that crushes delicate petals
to jade
 
The syringe of his cock
emptied itself over her tits
and face, a decades-old
wasp sting concealed

under the pixelated smile
and greasy contract.
She would have gotten
him back were it not

for her producer force
feeding her scorpions
for breakfast and cyanide
for lunch.
 
Endangered

The scrunched up socks
on the bedroom floor
nearly made her weep,
their gorilla faces

reminding her of the time
his camera undressed
her, made her poledance
with a broomstick

and used his cock
as collateral for its sin.
 
the coffee cup sits silently
unspoken words
floating
like slightly curdled cream

i pour a fresh cup
of expression

you swallow me into silence
without thought

bitter

Y'all are not rusted.

And time? Bah. Who needs time?

(trying to convince myself)

get over here, Ange, Eve, Syndra... come on.... if boob leakin sleep deprived post partum mama can do it....(however so clumsily, uninspiredly....)

Someone hold me. I'm scared.
 
Grandmother remembers her husband

Grief drips from the corner
of her mouth. She wipes
it off with a handkerchief
stained with spots of sepia

coloured memories. Clouds
float like lilypads in the sky.
Sometimes she sees him
clinging to them, the way

he clung to the wreckage
of his vessel during World
War Two. She always swims
to him in her dreams, never

knowing she is the current
that dragged him away.
 
A front porch is written while poet sits,
with steps and sunshine
and realization that she is home.
The poem

walks past black dog, sweet
with cedar shavings
and scents. Lilacs bump
breezy-lavender against his kennel's
chained links. Daisies,

or something like daisies,
grow without hands and trowels,
without the watering can. Rain

dampens paper and the pen
isn't noticeably missing
until nightfall.

The baby's screams
fell like the Joker's goons
when its mother's
bloodshot eyes sunk,

as if each word
had reached in the blurred
white and dragged out
that part which had gone

missing at childbirth,
leaving her silently clamoring
for its return.
 
questons

what if
the paths we walk
braid back upon themselves
and all our lifetimes
entwine?

can we then leave messages
for ourselves
to find along the road
when next this way
we travel?

and what then
might we tell ourselves?
to be wary of the easy way?
to walk the path of righteousness?
to follow our bliss?

and upon discovery
of said communiqué
would we heed our own advice?
or dismiss it
for origins suspect in nature?

or, what if sage wisdom
no longer fits
the current world view?
can we then change
our view to fit the new?

or can we change the world
to fit wisdom we know
once answered ageless questions
and spun galaxies into cosmos
without end?

and would this be enough?
 
Fog

Fog waltzes like Fred Astaire,
covering the lighthouse
with its translucent glove.
A conjurer that can be seen
for one night only. Front row
seats are best to watch
it make the structure fade
before freezing it like a shot
of stock footage. Observe
it returning to normal
but watch out for that glint
of gold bouncing off the outside
like sunlight on a fish's pulled back
eyeball, that trace of what lurks
elsewhere; constantly spying,
planning. Waiting.
 
Anonymous

First to find the anonymous
woman's passport photos
lying next to the bus stop
was me. Passers-by joined

and together we formed
a circle, spinning her image
in the centrifuge of our heads
to separate all the elements:

Comma-curved eyebrows. Face
tapered like an arrowhead. South
American look. Long dark hair,
straightened. Plain black t-shirt.

We carried them home, each one
staining us with colours longed for.
 
Maggie has no bed
dappled with morning beams,
no window
nor floorboards, cold
and waiting
for abundant light.

She is without porch
and we wonder why
there is a homeless swing --
canopy lifted high in a windstorm.

Maggie bought a porch swing
for storage,
not for soft, summer sitting,
with iced tea and curling feline
and a good book of sun-warmed pages.
 
sweet William your bottlecaps scatter
and you tell me I am one of thhe best
so why have you not yet deconstructed me
into a pile of blocks
splintered wood alhabet with ponies
and alligators and the occasional cloud shape
why have you not deconstructed me, chisel brother down
down into chips and marble dust
build me, build me back up in your imag
Mr. Williamyou might have been the one
who could do it where did you go?
Iam falling apart no one remembers the order
 
Moon

This is what greeted me first
when I reached my hotel
in Barcelona: a moon choked
by cigarette smoke

being prodded by lunatics
from the city's asylum streets.
One leapt like a goat eager
for new grass, another climbed

himself on to the shoulders
of a taller man and tried
unscrewing it from night's painted
ceiling. They didn't want cash,
just a decent pair of clippers.
 
anticipation

i will soon know everything
the universe reveals
itself

lifetimes unfold
fantasies complete
galactic spirals find cadence

i await
entry

you
at the opening of me
eager, ever patient

well...
cum home
 
the long thick stroke of you
fills me
as a million stars
fill the night

with passion
beauty, strangled cries
of lust made flesh

Goddess of the Moon!

I am your fuck queen
your willing little sex doll
your swollen, creamy invitation
to the sacred cosmic rites

I was born to ride you, baby
use me well!
slide in hard
forcing
moans into the night

draw out slowly
pulling cords
that spiral
universal chords
from my navel to my cream

make me sing choruses
of grunts and groans and pleas
oh please!
don't stop

don't ever stop
orgasmic bliss cascades
across the chasm
between thrust and draw
breathes me into spasms
where you join me
and we dance

we dance the sacred
cosmic
ritual of unification
 
Teenage Kicks

Like actors treading
the boards for the first time
we walked through
the city eager for some kind

of neon kicks. Plugging
ourselves into the electricity
of bars and girls with glossy
lips and eyes that shone yellow

like gibbons we fed on it all.
Gorged, we broke ourselves
apart. Became Picasso's
fragmented models.

Street cleaners swept us up
in the morning. We do
our daily business with only
one eye these days,

the other one staring at us
from somewhere dark and deep.
 
for Jim

There are no grand ghosts here
they are small,
with grandiose capes and masks,
they scuttle and blather about
and buzz that buzz
it becomes as a drone
a monotonous hummmmm
that caves with each intake, gasp,
like the last whisper
of a glowing ember
upon its death, the howl
the ranting then surrender.

slingshots made of angels
are crossing hither and there
and knowing how crowds of them
can darken, have darkened, yet
in the midst of it all you disappear.

freely we surrender ourselves
to those who know no better,
they just speak a better game.
