Excellency exuding
from the straightness of her spine.
Black hair, black clothes,
gold jewellery;
the feminine divine.
She gets called intimidating
by those with lesser style.
She'll put your photo on her altar,
cast a spell to make you smile.
A true sight to behold:
a woman in her power.
Winking, laughing, spinning;
behind each ear, a flower.
She'll bless you with her loving
if you're open to receive.
Bend to show devotion
and she'll meet you on her knees.
Evil lives inside her
but she chooses to abstain.
Says morality's in equal parts
between the heart and brain.
Cross her once, repent,
and if you're lucky you'll be
pardoned.
But twice – you'll be the offering
of a ritual in her garden.

stuck
in my halfway head
in my almost room
in my nearly there house
one day soon
this day
will come soon
time stops for no one
but the sun

"I feel like I haven't done my best with you and I"
Unsure if this was
Confession or
Apology or
Promise
I agreed anyway
"Like sexually, I feel like I haven't put in my all"
I never knew
Submissive
Until a skinny boy with burns all down his chest
Put his hands
Around my throat
"I just think it can't happen just because an opportunity opens"
Doesn't he know I don't pass up chances
Time is a ticking bomb
Plus who knows
How long
We will both want to do this
"Better luck next time"
Ignite me again

heads between legs
head
severed
hanging
on by your fingertips
teeth
nails
scratching
the sides of your soul
nerves
noise
it's raining
wind howls round the house
cold
skin
I'm shaking
your ribs
rattling the cages
escape
you're a runaway
here is the safest

Our ******* in black bags
Smelling of coffee
Recycling bin filled with more liquor bottles than anyone else on the street
Today I realised
How long
We have taken pride in trash

You caressed
my *******
sneakily slipping fingers beneath
my sternum
to stroke the thumping valves
of my most important *****
Suddenly
your grip tightened
heart
ripped
through my ribs
to stick in your pocket
hanging halfway out
like some sort of sick
*******
keychain
Arteries attach us to each other ever since

Skin cracks
White rivers
A delta on the tip of my tongue
Let the words flow
I expand
I grow
In every direction
Until impossibility pulls me back
I have long ago learned
That pushing the limits means pains
This is not my concern
All I worry about now is
Truth and growth and flow

The world is melting
The delicate curve of her spine
Death by abundance
Her arms outspread
What we need most to live will be our demise
The longing in her eyes turns to fear
Rising higher each turn of the tides
A last reach to escape
She falls
We float
The earth as we know it is gone

Don't say I am confusing
Don't make your indecision my fault
You are a boy
Chest hair does not make you a man
And I have gardens growing
In the palms of my hands
You know
It takes time to grow
I am slow
I am stone
You hammered me
Expecting me to shatter
But smart girls carve themselves
Out of diamonds
Garnets
Rubies
Stop pretending as if you've broken something
You barely scratched the surface
Simply clouded it with your breath
(It was probably time for a polish anyway
Thanks for the reminder)
Tomorrow I will shine
I am stone
You will not erode me
Nose, fingers, ears
Cold to the touch
Shivers through my shoulders
Do not ask if I'm okay.
Do not assess the fullness of my schedule
Do not keep the news from me
Because I'm "too busy"
You are a coward and
I am empowered
Your judgement is wrecked
If you truly think you have that affect
Stop trying to make your weakness look like mine
I am stone
Stop apologising
Thinking I'll be empty now
All that's empty
Is your words
I'm solid the whole way through
Your weak little lungs could not
Blow me down
You wish you were the Big Bad Wolf
The previous was a stick figure
And the one before
Had hair like hay
I am brick
I am stone
So huff and puff away

Skim reading
Your skin
Reading
My lips
In this house
I am suffocated
Could not have been more glad
For you to take away what little air
Was left in my lungs
Clamp me down
With the lightest brush of your lips
You retract
I remain pinned in place.
