She sealed her fate in a written word
Singing of a poets undying love
He laughed,
And ran his fingers across their blue-inked stories
Enjoying the gift of his beloved writer.

I felt our hearts beat together in rapid unison.
Our hands,
his hot and mine cold
Wrapped together
Fingers interlinked
Woven tightly
As if we were afraid
Of coming undone.

He says I am colourless and uncaring.
A fleeting passage, dog-eared and left upon the mounting dust of a bookshelf. He says he will re-visit me later. That he will always savour the taste of my words as they settle sweetly upon chapped lips. But when blood blossoms upon my torn pages and stories are lost beneath scarlet ink. Still, he does not come back to see me.

I hope you are in my next life,
And the one after that
Because even when we are different beings,
With different names
And different features
You will always be my favourite soul.

cracked china vase
seep through the crevices
glue it shut
glue it even tighter
pools of water
sink to the floor
sweep it back in
sweep or it's too late
roses laid strewn
spread in every direction
put them back in
For Gods Sake,
Put Them Back In

My first country
shook with vigor
Collided with the thrashing sea
I stayed because it was all I knew
I stayed because it was home

I choose
not to step out
in front of the
oncoming truck
like some flighty
whitetail deer
beside a lonely highway
flat-lining through the Badlands
I hold the perimeter
respect the irrevocable
delineations of love
honor the ground
that roots
evergreen
place my trust
in lapis blue

His hands brushed across the open air. He sighed, letting his lungs fill with the night.
"The earth will be my canvas, so long as the sky is eternal."
And so he fell into the darkness,
Until he became a cluster of stars.
The masterpiece he sought.
