Dedications
Walk out
.
.
.
I creamed the wall poetry,
deep throated the oven
until our breasts charred.
Fresh and dead! {you were always meant to be}
Sun came
and so did I
Walk out with me
(hasty)
speak
this
phras
es
s
(he took out the trash)
The seeker has
sought
and her scribbled eyes...
does she dare a connection?
Con-
nec-
ted

words

brain
words
from
life
words
from
two
worlds
in
one
word
it's
pause.
Sway with blip.blip.
world stops.
silence.

Last ones...
Magnets
{heaven wide}
purple skies
feel magnetic
i lay next to purgatory
a negative
mixed in a blender
of rampant touches
with other {positives}
and unfounded {intimacy}
is this really it?
you {sizzle} to char
what should this be?
thoughts of flight
just take me to the winds of polyamoury
surprise me with a kite
(or maybe a conch shell).

Bang, bang, bang
On the window glass.
Come save me-
I need cigarettes.
Everyone itches here.
Nobody works here.
We are all broken toys,
And they are
The children
Trying to put us
Back together
With Elmer’s glue.
We
Are still broken.
We
Are still broken.
We
Are still broken.
Hop
On the Merry-Go-Round.
Feed
Us meds, meds, meds,
Tell your
Feedings to be quiet.
Let us
Teach you common-sense.
But
Remember, it’s quiet time
Come
Save me, I need cigarettes
Your paper degrees
Cannot win me sanity.

Same taste, but the egg’s no good.
The Wave
Ignorance rises above me with snide remarks.
He was a false promise that I begged to leave,
but now I am cornered sludge; abandon ship!
Find me buried alive in the ocean’s core.
I used to think ignorance was a diseased wave
in a bountiful sea of new discoveries clear of debris.
Only a swimmer with eyes
could duck under the perpetual splash and discover the golden treasures of the abstract. Now, I call myself a dirty liar. A wave is happy and joyous because he can float above the treacherous sea,
away from harm, drenched in movement.
The swimmer, however, follows
her eyes with curiosity,
and is torn by the truthful sharks
and merciless currents. As a wave I would be blissful again, an unaware floater, but I found my eyes once and now they are permanent. Reality is forever embedded in my cracked and mangled spine. Goodbye, lies.
