Cool - A poem by Ruth Boon
A bleeding smile dry lips while you kiss me you kiss me you kiss me discover and unwrap lover, lover my heart is an oven inside are your burning hands you blister so quietly then show me your palms your eyes are oak trees they can't run away no matter how hard they try old leaves escape them they fall to the ground while your hands are still burning you never make a sound a leaking whisper, soft eyes in the crowd I see you, I see you, Your throat is an ocean, my thoughts swallow into you, yours into mine and you can hear the walls of my labyrinth creak my body speak in illiterate rhythm

Oven Heart
Open my fist from it’s tightness kiss the incisions that have been made by my finger nails that should be black my first fist reaches to the ground my second to where my heart should be an empty space that is waiting in the shadows of my chest it is waiting behind dark green vines poison ivy it is waiting behind dusty opaque windows warm greenhouse waiting for my fist, my hand, my heart, growing a deep red tomato inside my palm waiting for a sheltered house made of glass

Dark home
The quiet after the storm sleeps in your chest like gliding bird wings after facing the wind Your treasure chest flows like hidden oceans folding your breath into bed sheets Warm, my tongue will travel like ribbons through the cages of your heart tying knots and bows the same colour as your as your secret bruises, the ones they don’t see The quiet after the splendid storm sleeps in your chest you keep it there, it is yours

**** Haiku
Making kisses like faint dog barks outside my house at night, I can feel their might in my gums, Maybe I’ll stick a pouch in between my cheek and lip and instead of tobacco it’ll be filled with words and it’ll be filled with you, Brown leather grasshoppers jump in your irises and chirp when you nibble my ear, A purple lipstick necklace fell onto your collar bones from my tongue, Little white petals jump from your fingertips into my mouth (very quietly) when you place your thumb on my lower lip, And you brush pollen off my skin with your dark dark hair which gets caught between my lips, Between my lips are your lips and your tongue young tongue time bomb in my mouth deep dark and heavy black and melting itself onto my stomach Egyptian inscription encrypting on old skin, I say old because no cap covered my invisible freckles, sun scars, if you stare hard enough at nothing, nothing becomes stars, if you have everything, blow it away like dandelion seeds; soft caresses, back onto someone else's pale cheek draw a map of a forest on your back while I hold a pen in my mouth and deep throat more ink, You be paper for me and let me think while we lie and still we lie and we lie very still.

At the bookstore of your heart (down the steps)
When you blink it’s like a long slow never-ending wave like a breath of acceptance finally letting go

Close Your Eyes Forever
I see an old man with a cool lip curl, A city light smile catching smoke in his mustache while he stares at school girls crossing busy roads, Innocent temptresses in short dresses a parade of salmon coloured skin screaming up stream to prove that they can swim

Don't ever confuse yourself for a person who makes art You are Art personified and preoccupied Don't delude yourself You're not like them.
