Three Poems in Tana
1: An Old Transformation
Her body
cold
as sea ice
lay before me
broken
by life’s swell.
I remembered
the pull of her currents and tides,
her surging waves and deeps
And I knew
I could no longer navigate
the course
we had set
so long before
As she lay before me
still, pale, cold
I wept:
for ever
becalmed

Naked

Care
I thought that you cared,
that you cared more than a friend.
Now when I see you you're all over him,
now I'm letting the darkness in.
I remember when you were all over me,
I sang you lullabies to help you sleep.
You held my hand when I felt down,
held me in your arms to pull me up.
We were editing our little story,
you put your pen down and I start to worry.
You scrumbled your paper ...

September is for lovers
September is for lovers, I find comfort in the covers cuddled up next to you, maybe too much so because sometimes I even drool, dancing on the couch and watching tv, I love the way you lay your eyes on me, holding hands and taking walks, you're always laughing at my mismatched socks, with you I know I will always feel good enough.

Art of my dreams
You are the art of my dreams.
The muse of my thoughts
and the sweetness of my soul.
a gentle aura surrounding mine
sending messages through the skin and bone
what a funny way to live,
what a peaceful time
to be alive.
to dare what is romance between the reality of life and visions
to desire not only a life
but two paths in one.

Forever Gone
He
followed
the sun
With her wings.
It
Dawned
A thousand times
He was never to be seen!!

Lovers
There were those moments
pressed
against a Cornish rock
in beach blackness
with the shush of the rippling waves
nearby in the night
lying
in a Sussex garden
with the hot sun
dappling our backs
parked
on a Ditchling hill
with town lights
spread below

Upgrade
Drowning in the depth of your eyes
I’m gasping for air
Keep my alive
Give me mouth to mouth
Those lips of life
Why can I just lay with you all night
Held by words
Captivated by touch
I need you close
I don’t need much
Just the chance to see you
To touch you
To fuel you
I want to ignite your flame
Push you higher
Build your desires
Mak...

Colorblind
Roses are grey
violets are grey
no I’m not a dog
just can’t get colors to stay
I am colorblind
no big deal, just lots grey
I don’t mind it, truly
it’s what I’m used to, day after day
Something’s always missing
is it blue? Maybe red.
How should I know the difference?
my senses are dead
I’ve heard of lavender
A light but loving color

Page turner
Like reading a good book
I can’t stop turning your pages
What will this next chapter hold
Action, romance, comedy
I want to remove the layers between us
Page by page
The anticipation is killing me
I place my hands on each of your knees
I can’t wait to read you
Uncover the truth
Your body speaks so eloquently
I savor this beautiful book of art
This engro...

Notes in the Margins of a Lover’s Poem
Slightly runny yolks with sizzling edges
Komodo freshly brewed to bold perfection
Heavenly scents waft through our place
I oversleep; you don’t judge; instead, you
cook my eggs just the way I like them.
Slow dances in our socks on kitchen tiles
Bike rides under shady oaks for miles
Beach picnics, candlelit and sunset-kissed
The breeze blows out our candles; you try
rel...

S.
My body just inches above yours
gaze into your eyes, your soul
I have questions and concerns
kiss the top of your collar bone
place you between my legs
relax slowly
experience every part of you filling me
feel expanded and complete
utterly overjoyed
pause
savor this
love how you feel inside me
Heart touching heart
Kiss your chest
Touch your hair

Ionic bond
My ionic bond
You’re metal and I’m not
Hold us together
Let’s form a lattice
Feel the electrostatic attraction
Let’s exchange ions
and unite in strength
They freely flow back and forth
Break and form
This compound is complex
Discover a new element
Let’s name it after us
What a unique a beautiful creation
Is it gentrified prostitution
Or an over th...
