Superficial memes
No substitute for passion
Though Rainbow cat, Yay!
poetry month
Dipping below the faultline
Wash hands in broken glass
This smoke curls
Burns away blood
Consonant spill but
The waves never make it
To ears
Frantic replies
Ignored missives
Friends when needed
But just this smoke
And blood
Else times
Treatment like a cloudy needle
To make you feel…better
Used and discarded
Scattered in the shattered glass
You use to cut yourself
To remind
This is living

Reading tea leaves
The mercurial kiss of stone
Carves me down
Tracing petals
Fall, rushing
Sigils drawn in my bones
Our lips meet, soft and welcome
Missing your fingertips every day
Phantom dreams
Of what we’ve yet to share
Tracing patterns in heather
No touch the last
Share this:
Shallow rising of a setting sun
Give me a taste of these things that I waste
Burn me up
Beyond recognition
Can’t find ruptures
Once the skin’s broken in
Last rapturous voice
Calling me from the grave
But I can’t settle
You woke me up
But test my mettle
And found it wanting
I’m still forming
Sky metal warming
Beat me to shape
My purpose is warring
But those days are past
Never was official
Just a man with a business card
And his hand out
Waking up to a reality I can’t know
Finding life amid the wreckage
But pieces stick
They’re vestige
A woken dreamer
Last memories spill across the page
Share this:
Tap comes dry
Faltering
Failing
Words coming out
Haltering
Heavy handed
Lost the delicate touch
Words dropping like bricks
Instead of fencers touch
Breaking and broken
False smiles and fake friends
Loss and pain
Words and words
But all just the swirl of broken leaves
In the lonesome autumn night
Share this:
Thoughts of a falling leaf
If I could be but memory
Or shadowed kiss
Bend sympathy
Slink slow across nerve endings
Spark lightning
Make each moment last
Our futures unwritten
We’ll write it together

My cat
Stalk me as your prey
Pounce and take me as you will
Claw and bite
My lovely kitty cat
Share this:
Waking with you
A white thread and a black thread
Yield way
to ribbons of rose gold
Share this:
More than you know
More than you know
They say more than you know
I love you more than you know
I value you more than you know
I want you more than you know
need you more than you know
you are more important than you know
you are smarter than you know
you are more beautiful than you know
Well…
Way to withhold information, asshole
I love you in the same manner that earth loves the gravitic effect of the sun that keeps it spinning and alive.
Holding back, it makes no sense to me
