20/F/Alhambra distinguidos rayos del sol
let’s live suddenly without thinking under honest trees, a stream does.the brain of cleverly-crinkling -water pursues the angry dream of the shore. By midnight, a moon scratches the skin of the organised hills an edged nothing begins to prune let’s live like the light that kills and let’s as silence, because Whirl’s after all: (after me)love,and after you. I occasionally feel vague how vague idon’t know tenuous Now- spears and The Then-arrows making do our mouths something red,something tall

Let’s Live Suddenly Without Thinking
sonic resounds sonic abound every wall at a sudden pulls out a string They pluck and entangle every strand dry and weary no flickering lights, no other end to climb. Mealymouthed the prisoners En la cabeza, esta loca para este día, y el próximo. There goes the alarm, let the younger self appear and save us form this overly grown despair. Oh, desolate and innocent. Not knowing why but hurting. It is the only feeling that defeats even the stars aligning and promises swell on wells. And suddenly, the inexplicable shares the same sentiment as the knowing that there is not an everlast of bursting joy. That sonic will resound and Heaven's mercy be on us to let it pass for now.

Dolor
I have done it again. One year in every ten I manage it---- A sort of walking miracle, my skin Bright as a **** lampshade, My right foot A paperweight, My face a featureless, fine Jew linen. Peel off the napkin 0 my enemy. Do I terrify?---- The nose, the eye pits, the full set of teeth? The sour breath Will vanish in a day. Soon, soon the flesh The grave cave ate will be At home on me And I a smiling woman. I am only thirty. And like the cat I have nine times to die. This is Number Three. What a trash To annihilate each decade. What a million filaments. The peanut-crunching crowd Shoves in to see Them unwrap me hand and foot The big strip tease. Gentlemen, ladies These are my hands My knees. I may be skin and bone, Nevertheless, I am the same, identical woman. The first time it happened I was ten. It was an accident. The second time I meant To last it out and not come back at all. I rocked shut As a seashell. They had to call and call And pick the worms off me like sticky pearls. Dying Is an art, like everything else, I do it exceptionally well. I do it so it feels like hell. I do it so it feels real. I guess you could say I've a call. It's easy enough to do it in a cell. It's easy enough to do it and stay put. It's the theatrical Comeback in broad day To the same place, the same face, the same brute Amused shout: 'A miracle!' That knocks me out. There is a charge For the eyeing of my scars, there is a charge For the hearing of my heart---- It really goes. And there is a charge, a very large charge For a word or a touch Or a bit of blood Or a piece of my hair or my clothes. So, so, Herr Doktor. So, Herr Enemy. I am your opus, I am your valuable, The pure gold baby That melts to a shriek. I turn and burn. Do not think I underestimate your great concern. Ash, ash --- You poke and stir. Flesh, bone, there is nothing there---- A cake of soap, A wedding ring, A gold filling. Herr God, Herr Lucifer Beware Beware. Out of the ash I rise with my red hair And I eat men like air.

Banging my head against the wall Looking for reasons I’m sure of. Trying to prove a point, Breathing, breathing not, not anymore. Walls, I could hear them speak to me, Witness to my deranged late nights talking to myself. Their eyes, tired from keeping up. If I could hear their words I’d hear mine back. One more glass in the sink One more thought of being cleaned Then again who cares? I’d be swoon once again. Sweet flicker of lights Deep liquor of lies Singing songs of the old Just missing you.

well, this is how I miss you, idiot.
10 years from now I’d regret it if: I find you in someone else’s arms, You find your home through someone else’s eyes, And that someone else is never I. 10 years ago I never know, I’ll never have a clue, For I was never there, That very 10 years ago. 4 years ago, I think I was robbed Of jokes, I tried hard not to laugh Of the presence in the room With a loud voice and a young heart I avoid. 4 years ago, I was robbed by his wild heart His delinquent ways and acts Him standing in the pavement, That look in his face he doesn’t have a clue of! My god, what should I give to take that all back! 4 years ago, I was robbed Not knowing I’d loved that man Not knowing that I can.

give me ten and I'll give you four
I counted the months, the years, the days in the calendar. I went through my head again – there’s no sign of a wound or a scar. I realized forgetting is so much easier now. Seeing the familiar takes no shots at me, how? I went online, A picture of you, A picture of friends, A picture of her With you. Went through the comments, Here we go again with the stalking! Hearts on the floor, hearts everywhere. You replied with an ‘I love her.’ Ran to the room, I feel like fire. Reached the backdoor with a blade on my hand. And before I knew it **** it!” I thought it was gone, I thought “I’ve moved on.” **** it! I sat on the floor, too long to remember. All that I know is what I know now, After all this time, why? You’re still the one.

still the one
Stray light of sigh, of freedom That one day in time. In the fast pace of dates, of gold's pressure, we tamed. Then crash the chaos - we suddenly care - causing sequence destroyed. From where? From that lovely little darling, A child, a lonely person, a dream, your peace. From what was once not a memory of an innocent whisp. An innocent whisp of what life really means. Attention, your hug, your kisses, your love. Your bright eyes of clouds, of me, And the air of exuberance you lived in - for keeps. All of them went mad, went bad. Wore 'grave' like a drape of second skin, second face to tell you : Come back, come back remember life out of bulb lights And back to the sunrise, we watch on the peaks of December. Come back, come back, there's still time to stop in your tracks, look at your hands that once had been in love.
