I'm on my way.
Perhaps I can learn, and earn something... a degree sensitivity to the divine happiness that I so foolhardily believe lies within each of us, if only...

second thought
I did something wrong tonight. I don't know where I started. Perhaps it was with not changing the litter box and being too stubborn. Perhaps we're better off gone... Anything I say can mean double trickery for you, but you don't see it or do you, man? Nubile guise you can go **** yourself sweetheart with that sharp pain in your core feel it burn as you walk away mirror neurons fire, crackling away in our brain brains double, seeing double walking away, the air biting yellow light I'm in a circus it seems, these days... always in that haze, baby blue, dreamy eyes look behind the looking glass my dear you'll find a wall, painted in parlor pink where you're mother used to let you play dress up in her robes... it was fun to dance in the ambient light. So innocent. Not these days with cold cut eyes crystal clear with rhoto glassy whites crystaaaal... they say, these days..with an exhale too much time to unwind loose your mind too much to do, not enough time for you tight held in that tensions grasp tenuous tendons stretch elongated fingers somehow unnatural in the reach so fine refined, rather somehow still as precious as... I don't want to say gold, oh how much material matters, and how little the important things do.. there I go, lecturing again, when will I learn, that a teacher does not lecture.

A night
5 am darkness. it's merry morning time and if I had a drink I'd toast myself to another night of beating sleep. or to sleeps evasive nature. either way, the result is the same. and the means never matter when the end is nigh. high upon nigh, it has come unto now and here we raise our dry and frail hands to the sky dancing for rain under a brightening sky our tongues are sandpaper leaves that curl up in the caverns of our mouths our throats, raw from the air - rasping still our bodies move in a fervor, we will have our rain. and the sun punishes our leathery skin and we will dance until we drink the rain

I love our inside jokes. Close friends with unspoken communication it transcends our verbal limitations, its chaos and beauty mixed, together just as separate a place is found in a disorderly scene paint and water spill creating with colliding colors that clash and **** things up together in the most profound way I'll tell you about my day in a haze of excitement and a fervor of love and wonder everyday is a trip to a new experience its painful and dull with pangs of sharp realizations and laments that end with I'll fix it someday so we burn the day away and hit the pill bottles to relax the muscles and taste the paper to experience what it says but we know that we go too far some days some days we go too far and we still don't think it's far enough.

there is something to be said about that...
It was a deep dark energy. A pulse. Thick, heavy pulses; radiating between bodies. Magnetism, a primitive attraction. So carnal in nature, so rooted within the primal psyche. The air was straining, the gap was treacherous to bridge and far too untamed. Tension gathers until it touches the tip of the tongue, taste buds overloaded, it is a rich, overwhelming taste, yet it left you quietly seeking more. Desire. The urges threaten to swallow you whole, teasing you with the threatening riptide that is this feeling. Pulling against the rope dragging you in, struggling with the strangling grip, face only somewhat off-color, eyes only rolling on occasion. You can take it. Until you are overtaken by the mounting wave, swept away as it crashes upon you, drowning your senses… oh but how you relish in its wake It's hit or miss in these raging waters, you make it or you don't, and no one ever knows if you'll end up a floater like so many others. Not until you're found bloated or bare ***** only then are they certain, and how condescending in the way they shake their heads and announce that they knew where, “you lied all along“

[Sequentially coming together and pulling apart]
azure eyes with tinges of grey worn from a dance with the night hair wild, could be wind-swept but no, only bed-swept through the tossing and turning her hair strangles and tangles itself the sun does not wait for her to wake she waits for the sun, achingly as the dark slowly devolves to light knowingly the pattern repeats and continues on the familiar sequence brings a sick sort of comfort she needs something to smile about anyway, "and it's always nice to see the sun rise."

In the beauty of words lies a truth inside beyond the words that scar skin and act as the terrorist suicidally bombing your heart Words that lie heavy on the tongue only to dangle between parting lips leave you wondering if anything could ever be so true becoming brilliant like something that you could succumb to ending with fatigue following the brilliance of the sun and the discovery of forced empathy exuding from empty souls Frustrated by the endless banter of the innocent thoughtless ones You want to hurt them, oh but that isn’t... no matter they're already, in a sense dead You need something real to make you feel: four bruised knuckles; an array of color; a rainbow of tender pain colliding, clashing and then comforting finalized. dulled eyes once too bright now you have to fight to get past that dead stare sitting so quietly amid the noise; lost and found in a peaceful nothing place

[Insight Inside]
At the edge of an ocean I find myself; sometimes afraid of feeling, fearing the feel of the fear of the… the tempting sounds and movements rushing my way on crestfallen waves (and there’s no escape) breaking against a burning summer body heat waves radiate creating these illusions we see; delusions we, separate bodies: desperate monsters of repartee sparring with silent words between worlds with ****** cuts of wit and quick clever retorts not one can win and so I weave and wonder at black ocean waves that toss me to and fro from stern to bow just teasing, never relenting to let me go? no, never land - a former lover. a lesson is learned in and throughout my treacherous journey of drifting with the tides and fighting the sea: I am nothing, like the sea. I am turbulent and raging just like the sea.

[Temptation, Summoned and Deceived]
an orchestrated mistake stumble, fumble and fall suddenly contact can be made: a reason to brush timidly, against the other in an attempt to subtly connect and find relief from that heavy tension, as it hangs in air so close to condensing so silent in its suspense and still, We wait to breathe
