18 night time is my time
listless, tongue twist the litany of love, call and response till death do us part standing on a street corner in his head, 'c'mon baby', rubbing legs like a cricket, recalling playful jabs as he carefully tears them apart- again and again and again. the clip- clop of a police horse is the soundtrack to a rapture hand slips against the condensation, the thrill of fire and ice, cold burns the moon reflects in his eyes, lunar purity in a puddle of stale water.

easy
your constant, unending noise i rebuke thee, 'fuck off!', beautiful mind strangled into crude curses profane in nature, rituals of execration in the dead of night and stillborn morning, lit by a brazier of an ungodly hued red, as you roar like thunder into delicate ears. 'please be quiet' i petition to the wailing angels stabbing at my eardrums with harpy claws, rip my brain to shreds in echoes of outraged confusion 'tearin' out your hair like a banshee' LEAVE ME ALONE

CHESS
endless paper and pencil, scuffed marks on a stone tablet directionless sterile white light, my impure detritus minutes pass, half an hour, intervals slip in a hurried slump masochistic time wasting, anticipated dread ominous i sink into nothingness throttled by expectation an ignorant bliss in the moments i spend unspent
