70 it’s a ripoff

Too many paths lead to a well intentioned obscurity.
A thousand lavished promises go astray.
One more sincere plea for redemption.
And one ore self-delusional forgiveness.
Regrets follow forever in your wake
while lies are ever present
on your lips. The himor in your smile,
the soft kiss on your lips, and
intimate caresses speak the same.
All tomorrows are yesterdays
in waiting. Winning ways
are guarented to lose. Until
that day when I forsake you
my life’s not mine; I am thrall.


69 I danced myself out…

I danced myself out. I fell weaping into your arms,
and with quite sobs I stayed wrapped in your embrace,
waiting for sorrows to pass that I may learn what it means
to smile, and perhaps remember where I left my laughter
and my singing heart. You held me while I waited.
You long caressed my tears. And you spoke soft
soothing words, and sang sweet lullabies
to forget my past, to help me dream of awakening
in new futures. And slowly you moved me,
marionette my tired limbs a sway in your breeze
to unknown sounds I could not even think
I would hear. Endless lives in motion without
sense or volition without hope.
And the sun’s seasons role and set the moon
stole many hearts and in the fields were sown
many bones, as I turned on my spindle until
I was threadbare and alone.
You were gone. I was somehow detached,
and I danced myself out into the night.
Lost among unknown children,
each moment just for itself, sliding
towards a newer awareness. Slow
shuffled steps that once fell on deaf
ears finally make a sound. Soft
rhythm of fabric movement.

And then a voice, high celestial
angels’ murmur falls into the sway,
my melody from my lips calling forth
once forgotten, a prayer, an invocation.


68 Run red my love

Sing softly, sweet, for moments bloody with desire,
for silent sloppy seconds, as memories expire.
All senses join as one sensuous caress
while infinity cries foul, as the future
is compressed into a single fragment
where flesh and bone collide,

and love cascades in spasms as lovers
fast collide. My heart is broken,
yours is crushed. We bleed
both from one wound. I will survive
just watching as you lay in swoon.
Nothing now will save you and I
must go. But now I stand here broken
as my heart turns to stone.

No Apologies, No Regrets

Though you left the table set
I never said I would come to dine
or that your open invitation had been accepted.

No, they were quite clear, my words,
though written in blood and sealed with a kiss,
our love was not to be realized.
Consummated this way, awash in familiar
rituals of domesticity, lazy sunday mornings’
intimate caress. I loved you
where I found you, and cannot love away
from the shark-worsted back alley
where we first kissed, among the garbage
by la sceine,, the late night rave light
spilling upon us as a mantle
of rainbows on a virgin’s bed
run red with love.
