I stand on our mountain, and make offerings to her. I find the warmest of stones, and build tiny glass kingdoms I bury the sweetest of apricots, and grow tiny red arboretums   And then She comes Under a pink noon Smelling of sweet Tangerines Releasing Belly laughs Into the valley below She nestles on my shoulder And raises my arm Pointing above to distant stars Absorbed in those green engulfing stones I find myself on a surf her gaze lifting my body into the air She clutches me close And spells out some fears I tell her it took Courage to finally get here My hand on her cheek As the cover of night approaches Her body begins to phase Holding her until she disappears gently into my heart

Pink Noon
glimmer, soft silhouette. an outline so evocative.   a strange desire to sing the unwise, to catch a name and raise a fist, to bare a few words, and claim this evening, from an otherwise drunken mood. habitual courage summoned at the sweat of another drink, a committee of stoic voices living inside of me. passed down through a millennia of spanish men incessantly clamouring for more whiskey. incessantly advising to just breathe and let go.

Dodecahedron
Fall I scrape my knees, and pick up my soul Rise i breathe heavy and lose control i own the night i own my dreams the right to live my only scheme

Responsibility
On the ground dead Half buried, arm sticking out Abandoned and left with a lily A ceremony long finished People just passing through A sequence of prayers Long dried up and floating into the ether Winters almost gone Duplicity is just about melted The sun is helping the rot And what's left of the body Is bordering near dust

Full possession
Forests of stone, glass and light. The truth cries out in the night. Dearest oatmeal, Sometimes we fail to be whom we need to be. Sometimes trepidation assumes form and takes judgment. I need you to ASK yourself, Can I trust this voice? Discover the self, And feel for what you say, Does it strengthen my position or fragment it? This world full of thunder, Awaits someone more than you. Someone outside the domain of opaque Predispositions. Someone ready to tender, and accept the world for its stench, and will enough the courage to make it better.

To see about a girl
The best kind of people are the ones not afraid to tell the truth. The best kind of people are not afraid of showing vulnerability. The best kind of people laugh with infectious glee. The best kind of people make a stand and work out love or for the possibility of it. The best kind of people shed themselves of filters (judgements) and fall fourth straight into arms of possibility. The best kind of people sacrifice in the now for a better abstract future. The best kind of people are wholly selfless.

The best kind..
Transference is inevitable. A flower that grows in between the dead cold moss. A small hope cradled as a warm stone. A kindness born through some invocation, some attempt to make sense of our place in this world. Its a prayer, a distance seen in your eyes, A doubt formed in the mind, by the brief rejection of a potential lover. We are the esculent, made ready to be consumed by the love of another. We are a breath, held on by the hands of a good friend. A flame stoked, Gently in the night. We are, we are, weight (significant).

Indifference
This feeling, Is a whisper crawling out me. An echo made by a stranger underneath my skin. A tiny yearning that bubbles up, as a set of continuous chortles. My heart beats, and I give into phantasm. The Crimson sun that never sets, The moon that bathes and overthrows us with all of its beauty. The ocean breeze and it's cool attempt, The delicate, fleeting, goddess silhouette.

Barefoot in the dust
Beautiful things don’t ask for attention. ineffable contours, that cannot be tamed with a wordy depiction. Like water running through my fingers, Ephemeral, and leaving me to linger. Caldera, my steaming  desire. Instantiates a spy, that is ready to be set on fire. Daughter of eve, Carousel of dreams You’ve drowned my angels And left me  to die in a reverie.

Candle at the end of the hall
You are, someone else, something better. Something worth of living and loving. A sky free of judgement, A land full of green. An air of honeysuckle, A bite of tangerine. A soft hum of roses, A rising tickle of joy A kindness without any poses, A lover ready to deploy.
