I pierce the muse with Jade eyes

Smashed into blue dreams
Tattoo’d moonbeams
Never end this road
Your on

Fall into the cobbled roses
Let the tragedy
Begin its dance
On its own

I can search for you for days
In a perfect summer
I can feel your breath
Glisten on my skin

As I taste you on my tongue
Less of the memories
Fade like the sunset
On a new day begun

I carry you in my heart
As an angel carries you in its arm
I sleep on a shadow
And wish on a heartbeat
Let me into your dreams
And carry the stars away
I pierce your blackened heart
With the spit
Of my rusty blade

A single whisper is all it takes muse

You left me standing here
In the faeces of butterflies
Disbelieving of the taste you took
Mired on the edge of a broken fingernail
That scratches life from under my skin

You tell me you wanted growth
Standing under a crystalline heart
Glittering all these words
Coated in asinine venom
I swallow

Left to stand in the shadows
Of the wingless angels
One of the scorned for a fate so few
Long gone since I felt the silence
Spoken choose to tell my name

Several heartbeats misaligned
Hunger feeds the sun
Pleading for love in hope
In hope of better
No need to die

Left to lay in the place
Where no-one knows my name
Drowned in the sin of my own
Drunk on the blood
I bought to dance

If I only held the muse's attention

If silence fell into the rain
Would I hear your cries in the wind
Lost into the stillness that abounds
Like a single fallible heartbeat
Absorbing all that is this time
When hope drifts on a change
Silent in the singularity
That is this love
That is when you be mine

Into these silent times
Before the rain descends
Absorbed into my veins
Cupped into supple breast
My lips sing to the sweet tastes
Lingering on a memory
Stirred by a single heartbeat
I remember this love
It was when I was yours

What has prompted this wish
Silently the moonlight washes away
Revealing the ghosts
Marked in autumns leaves upon the earth
Stillness by the roadside
I kiss today forget tomorrow
Drink the holy water
I held this love once
It was then when we .....

Silently I watch the muse

I rest my elbow on the slithered edge
Sit upon the shreds of an unborn memory
Contemplate into the darkness of an unformed heart
Yet to beat a still life into the pleasure of these tears
Held in an upturned palm
And I ground those tears into dust

I licked remorse from your skin
Soaked in silver petulance and tasting of almonds
Leaving my mark upon your cheek in the form of a scar littered in rust
Staring into hollow eyes of jade casting no reflection that is mine
I can see until tomorrow in your dark refractions
Nothing of today coated in sin upon my furrowed brow

Longing for the smell of your perfume
Drawing deep breath in hope of remembrance
Less than a glimmer of the life hoped for
Less than a life lived in that heartbeat
Less than a life shed in those tears now ground to dust
Ive lived less of a life for not knowing you

I rest in the bosom of the muse

The breeze carried the soft wish of melancholia
When I though of you now

At peace with my silence
I can bury you within my skin

A resemblance of honeysuckle is glistening on these memories
I close and withdraw

Let the sun warm
Let it warm

Internal I sense nothing of regret
Only that I never held you

Allow the cold gossamer sheen of winter to descend
Forgetfully the shadows of an angels wing covers the scars of time

Your eyes
Those eyes

Breathe
Yes breathe

A single grain of sand engraved with my words of love for you
Cast me among the heavens as I learn to love alone


Aback I ride the red serpent slithering the moons
Taste of the scales born of the blood I shed

Forgetful I slip
And taste of the rusty blade

Ego somniant Musa/ I dream of the muse


Eternally on my scared and vacant heart
You sleep with me

I never dreamt to be alone

But

Your eyes are a thousand miles from the sun
And the words that you lost
Buried

Chase as I do
Emotions littered on the floor
Discarded as hopes and wishes
For another

As this funeral never ends
My shadow is along beside me
And the other
Remains silent
As only one can be

I scratch my thoughts
Whispered in blood
Upon this postcard
Discordant of words
Discordant of heartbeats

A chance of letting go
Etched in a dozen kisses
Empaled of the stalks of a dozen roses
Thorns pricked of a dozen fingers

This blood leeches black
And stains the ground
In the ink of a tattoo’d heart
Quod me nutrit me destruit

Sǽcula
In mortis

Sǽcula
In vitam

Forever
In death

Forever
In life

I mourn the muse as she mourns me

Sunday morn
In the dawn
Cool brisk air
Still on the breeze
And I wait

Cup my hands
And blow
Between the thumbs
Warm
Warming
And I wait

The world goes about waking
I watch
From afar
Barely aware
Of my presence and theirs
And I wait

Dew glistens on a tear drop
The world refracted
In its essence
Inverted
I watch
And I wait

It should be soon
Yes soon
I drift in on the time
Counting the droplets in the fog
To pass the while
And I wait

Impressions left in shadows
Places where we had been
In time
Left to last on a memory
Mine
And I wait

I know it will never be the same
How can it?
When you left on the dance of the flame
Our love
In the forever
Forgiven
In the forever
Entangled in the shadows and mists
In the forever
In the last dance of a flame

In rest the muse opens my eyes

I have to breathe you in the shadows
Drinking my coffee in the mornings
Read the yesterdays as a glimpse
Discarded as the breeze from a breath
Memories go astray

Only colour I see is black
Painted on the sunset littered in gold
Stained
Several feathers lay beside
When you say you loved me

I try to remember what it was like
In the taste of whiskey on your lips
Stale cigarettes on my clothes
Sitting on a summer evening
Listening between the words

Smells
Fractals cascade disturbingly serene
Listen to the soundscapes
Shattered on several visions
Kiss me before the nightfall

Hand in hand walk into the night
Dive into jade eyes kissed into blue
Dance entwined as lovers
Serpentine
Love coated in hues of silver

Shed my skin
Allow madness in
Runes tattoo’d a heart in solitude
Severed veins scared from rust
Born on blades

If love is what Im missing
I live without words
I weep several lifetimes
In a tattoo of an angel
Feathers engulfed in flames

In kaleidoscopic visions I see the muse (drug fuked adulations)

Six of nine reflections
Settle
In time

Meanwhile I dance
Into the breeze
Holding a glass
Half filled with wine

Drown sorrows penciled on the wall
Crimson seeks a path
From severed veins to a finger tip
Drip
Drip
Drip

Exercise some semblance of desire
Allow me a drink
Chance has me here
Two brings seven again
And drink

Drunk upon a sunset
Scatter me a scene
Too many blackbirds
Fuck
Scarecrows in rhyme

Undefined and undeserving
Never needed a swim
Click
Click
Simply a truth
Marked into silken skin

Fog laden breath
Crisp in the air
Silver clouds laced in Jade
Fails to choose
This is sin

She died you know
As I sit here watching the flames
Lick
The side walls of the chimney
The way flames have a way of leaping about
Seemingly with purpose
Yet chaotic at the same time

I miss her
A lot
As the drift of scented gum
Wafts
On the cool of the crisp night air
Then dissipates
As though it or my words never existed
But I know they did
Like the flames
Continuing their endless dance

We touched our hearts forever
Or so we thought
Darkness enshrouds me now
Reaching in from behind
As the warmth from the fire
Lights me in hues of red
Casting grotesque shadows on the walls
Impressions of demons
Well at least what I think they look like
Warming that which cannot be warmed anymore

I really believed
In forever
Morose
I tilt my head forward
And drift
Into memories
Into a lifetime
Questioning a life
Why Im now alone

Feeling a soft touch on my shoulder
An impression left on the rug
Wrapped around a soul
I know
No one is there
I know
There never will be again
I know
Yet I can still believe

In love
I hold you
In love
I remember you
In love
It is forever

And the flames still dance

I stand alone without the muse

Reflecting carousels dancing in the moonlight
As the harlequin gypsy colours a checkerboard sky
Simple words dance when spoken from a musing
Whisper me a love born of a serene heart

Drawn in honey’d liquor lips of succulent choice
Dream in shadows of receding dawnscapes
Slender is an arched back caressed by a golden tongue
Trace contours of love gifted on a dew coated skin

From the pillow we can watch the moon rise
Let me drift into obscure dreaminess
Imagination paints soundscapes in mother of pearl
Silent shadows cast memories of a time not forgotten

Forever be the Jester wearing a silken skin forever
Taste a glistening finger, wet, salty to the tongue
Yet our eyes shall meet in a pre dawn escapade
Let me glide the tip on this love forevermore

Lay
Forever
On clouds of Vermilion

I show the muse my scars

Let me hesitate in the rain
Listen to the tears

Hidden in the shadows of liars
Let no one see my pain

Forever worn on broken skin
Seeking love on the bullet

Silence is precious in a sunset
Listen to the peace and love

Let me hesitate in the rain
From your arms a love is born

Rest the weary voices
Call them to break the spell

Reflect a past torn into your eyes
Lift a veil brought from struggle

Tragedy sung from a memory
Rort to repeat on a hazy breeze

Born beneath my skin
Precious a love rendering seven heartbeats

A pause is all I wish
Let me hesitate in the rain

in this time that derives as hate
the silken pillows sweeten the harvest
time drifts on a memory
as sweet as it sounds
I loose my rhythm
and count
one
two
three
as silver shadows
hide my blind hate
violence
lives under this skin
blow
open palmed as the dust from yesterday
escapes
breathes
cunts
less than this
cunts
less than another
allow me the temperance
exist
beyond
sweeten a day
sounds drift in my ear
as voices drown out
n I kill
in another day

The muse hands me the rusty blade

Harness the sun
Sweep of a surreal pallet
Mixed colours of a sun blessed hue
Drink me the sky in a tapestry
Clouds jade serene
Hung by silken threads of silver dreams
Harmonies of birdsong
Quiver
Resonating sonnets 
Hearts in shadows decorate the moon
A glint captured in time
Escapes the corner of an eye
I cut to live this life again
In love I write your name

I whisper in the shadow of the muse

severed wings
silken dew
left to mourn

discarded remnants
litter memories
golden suns

in peace
remonstrate
listen to begin

in breathe
pearl orbs
shimmer

embrace
hearts aflame
with love

darkened iris
bends reflect
now

The muse and I share the rainbow

In the rain
I drink in
In the rain

As your mascara runs
Beating rhythms to your chest
Your tongue tastes the sweat
Drunk from another

In the rain
I drink in
In the rain

Tip the whiskey demons down your throat
Obscure the yesterday as it drips from the venom
All the while selling souls
To those who will listen

In the rain
I drink in
In the rain

Join the dance of denial
As we tango into a new oblivion
Home alone again with another regret
Red is the drawn glow of a final cigarette

In the rain
I drink in
In the rain

We were beautiful once without the scars
Hiding once that was a raindrop
Sliced in crystal lined air
Drunk on the Gypsy’s wing

In the rain
I drink in
In the rain

This love thats drawn in chalk upon the floor
Smudges as yesterdays paradise breathes
Tattoo’d upon a silver’d chest
The words I love you

In the rain
I drink in
In the rain

As the truth will set your heart free

i await the muse the breath

Allow the anger to seethe
bubble
under bleached skin
Talons
raking scars of light
congealing acid
as it flows free

Drip
drip
upon the carcass
blackened
by the sun

My eyes
liquid pools of ink
darken’d
under a harlequin moon

Short
staccato
draws of air
Warm to inhale
warm
on exhale

Feted tongue
feeds beyond
Tastes
contours of flesh
traced
in silhouettes of shadows
left as marks
upon stone

Scared for time
sequences of blurring
Dark
shifts
Sands
in time
click
Click
Allow sound
to escape the burning

listen if you can
Listen
quiet
Hear death
as is beats in two
listen
hear me
As I
kiss
death

The muse holds a shimmer

Every street light showers an addiction in neon
If this hope for you was to come back, is gone
Dressed in skin I couldn't weave enough to loose
Chipped in black, torn nails hang from my fingers
Eyes glazed in shadows live through the dawn

Tears, scream in the breeze as tomorrow falls
Crazed, crackled Jade as your eyes say sorrow is mine
Plead in fuken forgiveness as a shallow lament is yours
SImple as it may be, I can forgive a denial of blood
Sleep in an alcoholic haze as summers drift on by

I cannot choose fear
Live in the sun
Walk away from others as they hold out a hand
Pick the scabs until they bleed
Stain my skin in hues of blood
Forget the path you walk
One you can remove
WIth a nod
And a choice
A better life lays
Captured in a dragons breath
And folded paper
While I live and die
Tipped by a rusty blade
Sliced in a vein
Silhouetted in oblique
Against the obscure
As a twist in ten saves me
But not the sun

A dream will carry a silence born
Several steps upon a crooked pavement echo arrival
Waft a feather of forgiveness upon a blessed soul
Count the shadow of lies in scars upon my flesh
Look upon the scars as I follow you

Im having trouble as I try to sleep
I open heavy eyes to a day just before
Left alone again in a crocked spine adjusting to delirium
Silence beckons peace unlike before I dream of death
In silence I kiss the butterflies breath

As I sit with the muse in silence

Why would I cry
When my head hangs low in the clouds
My heart feels heavy in your silence
To many times a fear has fallen away

The sky seems less blue
Looking for a time more like before
Empty hands hold a memory
Less in the love that remains

Old is born from a heartbeat
Strung on a single chord
Coloured on the inside like a weary soul
I think I might just hide

No muse to hold my hand

Paper dragons
Try to run away
Hear them
Whispering
Living
In the silver

Gather
All your dreams
Store them
In your pockets
Never let
The colours drain

Simple things
Make you smile

Simple things
Allow you to cry

Coldness
Close your eyes
Allow the shadows
Lengthen creep
Close your eyes
Time to sleep
