Maybe I don't mind turning into a pillar of salt. Maybe looking back for a brief second, is the only way you can move forward. ----- (Stories I Took From Bible School and Made My Own 1/10)

Why I Relate to Lot's Wife
Her hips are the sun Planets rotating around her axis falling off into black holes each time she loses Herself in those dark orbs Those cursed humanoid black holes That **** in her planets Leaving nothing but a dying sun But soon that is gone too Leaving nothing but particles of stars Thoughts never formed into words But sung about In other men's poetry Creating worlds and words she spoke That never existed in the first place The Galaxy Woman The myth that plays chords in men's delirious fantasies

The Galaxy Woman
I wish I had green eyes Because you love them so But instead i have ocean eyes That help you stay afloat But I want you to sink And become a part of me Yes I have an ocean But I want you to sink Your eyes are so bold A sea of deep We both have ocean eyes But one will sink While the other floats

My Lover has Blue Eyes (But so do I...)
Dark eyed Queen of Florence She meant a lot to you She was in all your pictures You talked about her brown eyes How they are so soft and more subdued My eyes are blue And fierce and bold Like ice, waves and rain Vast like sky And like clouds tinged in gold I could never stay in one place Dark eyed Queen of Florence She was beautiful and fine She smoked cigarettes and drank her expensive wine But me? No-no. While she was on the ground I was learning how to fly

Dark Eyed Queen of Florence
that night started out with a stolen kiss in his pick-up truck ended with me clawing at a seat and screaming at a reflection that was faking actions and sighing into her heart and soul listening to a voice that said "He doesn't love you," as I began to sink into a leather sea and dreamed of becoming a part of the upholstery the only thing that has ever held me gently

"A place can never replace a person," That's what you said to me As you hugged my curvy frame Against that door frame Before I turned to watch you leave

Door Frame
I’ve pulled men away from religion as they sunk their teeth into my soul gave them hope with every photo as I simultaneously cut tiny holes They called me Snowflake so pretty but so cold or maybe they called me Snowflake Because of the way I melt so quick on their tongues as I melt down their throat and fill their empty soul
