The Memory Of Her
On Prebends bridge I caught the evolution of twilight into dawn.
Watched shifting hues of shadow and light brightening into colour.
And, for a moment, I thought I saw her
looking up through the morning mist.
Her pallid, frail frame accentuated by the glistening blue ocean of her eyes.
But, she faded. Like the mist itself
And all that I was left with, once again,

Wounds of liberation
Imagine being totally untethered
After feeling chain linked
I feel split
That part removed
That half is trying to renew
But it hurts
To grow scab over wound
Missing you is mourning you
Leaving you is still losing you
And I’m just as lost
As I made you
If it could be
I would make it be
Should I be chain linked again
I would make it good

life is beautiful
i would fall from heights
shaking Lucifer terrified

in a Jashar night, by your side.
floating on Chopin stroked ivory nocturnes
swimming in deep ruby pools of Pinot Noir

phosphorus waves of purple patches
carry me from seas of stormy eyes
onto shores sanctuary ...

Kind of hard to screw that up.

retail therapy
I stopped seeing my therapist
she moved on to start her own practice

eating less
using useless utilities until I give out
my hands reaching for my purse
my fingers finding the chip

Distend
Fortune fails what love forgets
An entanglement of horror
Forgotten fools, defile the soul
Left foraging for sorrow
Permissive lives, destroyed by God
Perturbed, entrenched with puss
Presumed and cloaked in putrid lies
Distends a repulsive trust
