English cosmic traveler. you'll find some familiar faces in here once the smoke clears.
I've let the world know that I love you (though my soul has loved you longer than my bones have known you) for 366 days now. I don't know how many days make up the centuries to come, but whichever the number is will be the number they put in the record books. "The Man Who Was Loved the Most and the Longest" the photograph will be of you, smiling aged in a worn out chair, wrinkled eyes and grayed hairs. And i'll be there, leaning into your side with a smile wider than any famous canal, prouder than any other historical landmark. Stronger than any ship that's sailed earth's raging waters. Yeah, we'll own the record books and the text books and the bibles to come. Each page will have our names written somewhere, microscopic in the ink of every line and every marking will be with our love laced. There won't be a pixel without a hex code that doesn't decipher in beyond cryptic ways to our lattitudes/longitudes, names or even our own birthdates or anniversary dates. No one will know it, but we're gonna rule the world someday. Now be it so that the world we rule will not the same as the world the Other's know, it will be the world just the same. Though what we'll conquer will exist in only invisible dimensional planes (such as our brains), it's still ours to take.

how could i deny the taste of the lips that changed every single part of me? the stars crossed us so tightly bound that i know there's good reason to laugh at the idea of 'escape' there ain't no escaping you babe

i turn to face you, having just had you lolling in the sleeping afterglow but you're not beside me you're inside of me hovering just centimeters over me wrapping warm my body in your silk blankets, a heartbeat swaddled. when did you start to love me so much? weren't it just yesterday you had me clinging to ceramic tiles for any sense of comfort while my insides were spilling out? i suppose i always asked for a lover as complicated as this.

chemical codependency
you ask for *** in the most pathetic ways pawing at my jeans making puppy eyes at me. dropping obvious hints "i want you" & singing about my skin. sometimes you make me sick

Oh, what are we, anyway? we are but only men, my love, we are so simple it hurts we are broken we are what we aren’t. it’s okay, we’re in love. behind doors slammed shut these walls never see sun. we are naked, separated, we chew quietly on meat grown cold. we sip softly milk gone sour. because in a world so bruising so tainted of blood, so full of this lust, we are clubbed, barred, ****** and hung up to dry. the hate our hearts see sews them shut. and still, we’re in love pushed in stenched corners pointed in wrong directions laid face down, nose turned up. we are sleeping when we most deserve to be awake. we’re touching hands when hands are just shadows and fragments of imagination. we’re disgusting when we’re in the presence of other men. it’s okay, we’re in love.

pale love poem
aches in the old familiar way that your heart once did as a child, begging for love as your mother's side, to be quietly pushed away. to have been shut up with television, pills, food (to think of your youth well there's no word to describe the guilt. your mere birth was an act of abuse on humanity, wasn't it?) this new ache though leads to a progression a growth in shrinkage a strength in will that you never thought was real. this ache takes you to a secret hidden place full of the shimmering hope that you'll feel whole one day.

starvation
sitting in the ****** sunlight pondering **** Jagger and who’ll inherit his lips when he dies. smoke chains from my mouth and Motown comes to mind. What I Got is a pregnant cat with cautious green eyes. what i think i’ll do is wait, but when will i stop? i’ve read my calendars birthed my charts and i still can’t decide. wind blows up my shirt school buses scream by. Hey, Children, Hi. my nicoteen teeth burp and i’m pushing out a cigarette heading back inside.

you in perfect transparent translations 6 dimensional shapes rolling, falling, flying away. i have no idea who or what you are. remember that chinese place off old 66? i had no idea who i was then but i would do it a million times over again and again. schizophrenic eyes telephone conversations alternate zodiacs, tigers and sheep. piscean planning and piscean demise. dolores haze, her very essence left trampled on the page. she was such a beauty in those days. do you remember those san franciscan lies? they say it never rains but i see that it does all the time. i’m still staying there for all my life. sweet, sick little complexities there’s never a cycle you break. you were in a room rull of people who would meet your same fate. three before thirty you had no clue you’d lead the way. socially starved, you say? i guess i can’t deny it, but i’ll fight it.

roadtrip 2010
walking thoughtlessly, a ****** path. head in the clouds, heart in the ocean. admired the shores, you did i bet. your skin of scales reflective, but frail, so badly bruised. your last breath, i hope you enjoyed it while you could.
