i come to you half mad with desire my *** turned to sacrifice; starved, like an Unwatered flower, A wretched ***** A sacred ********** A temple of worship, Do you remember How you created me? In A sort of Rebirth, out of the carcass I once was Aching to be consumed All my flesh and bones and sinews, Stripped away. Now, just the soft dew of our skin, The clear thickened air dressed in fire Smoked by the scents of sage and salt evoking numberless poems For me to swim through your body back and forth in a sacred liturgy Bloodied and purified I am Laid bare before you now amidst The white sheets of the alter A purity of sin almost worthy of worship, almost crying out the holiness of lust before the gods. And Our velvet kiss turning to a midnight confession all of our vices and virtues Are as blood and as sky.

Alter
When lilies of pain bloomed from soil saturated in blood and lust Mother Gaea gave birth to her most wretched daughter A Stifled and stillborn and butchered daughter A sacrificial lamb, of a daughter An empty and anguished and defiled daughter An ache who was born from the corpses left clinging together after the dust has settled. An Ache who’s cries were the imminent whistle of a descending bomb. An Ache who’s very breath was fulled with our most desperate whispers and prayers. We set Gaea ablaze, Left her singed and seared and amputated, nothing but the sharp-edged fragments of what was, burning away at memories of the battles that lingered still on her tongue. A forest fire consuming and destroying itself, yet continually growing, Growing enough to burn and burn and burn And burn but not quite **** Only to leave her daughter alive. A daughter left to roam the blistered cadaver of her mother, An Ache, still alive, Alive and sickly and sweet Full of beating blood and sticky wet breath.

Eris
She sits in stoop, low over the sodden earth Pressing herself  to leave an impression in the muck some sort of public confession, That she actually exists. Swallowing whole all things dead and dying, but Her own unsubstantiated concept of Living, defying her purpose In insipid contradictions To her needless desperation to grow. To prove her own mass substantial Absorbing into herself all things that seem too real, That threaten her absoluteness That threaten to have existed before her

Fog
Sad and sunken, sloppy Reclining in their paperback seats Heads lolling forward like they are made of The rags they are clothed in. Rags they sleep with. Clutched like a child's Blankie to hold them down on the Concrete bed made from their cold and hard Voice, But soft words, that built their bones And concaved skulls, empty but Open like a bowl to be filled, Like their stomachs will remain unfilled, Like their stomachs Decaying, Un-used and un-taught. Soft, sloping, shoulders, Slick but slump tongue, Too heavy at the base of their throats To speak and sigh, They sway in their hollow frames And sink lower in the cold.

The *****
They carry the body out at 5.37 p.m on a Sunday. Cloaked under shadows of cloth, in the blackness of Death. We lay dead-empty as we watched. They hovered with bleached masks and lay hands, cold, On the still colder flesh, They pressed flesh on flesh, Imagined life in hallowed cheeks, They tried to bring more out of 63 kg of Flesh and bone, spoke to break the seal of death   With remembrance The body rotted below the cloth The body grew stiffer, colder And nothing more

Funeral
The surreal walk to the unknown Chemicals burn in our bloodstream To wear it off Walk till the break of dawn We ignite our thrills Engines roar To conquer our midnight thrists You will hear it When it nears Vanish into the night Listen to the whispers That it wants you to hear Shift down for the shear rush Through the abandoned leads Trip down the memory lane It wasn't our hunger in the first place Just scripting of a memory to be made The Needed cherish when everything fade

Midnight hunger
Tasting your skin Whilst you scratch my thirst, A flavour into the uncharted, Flashing lights on our taste buds As we fall into one another's worlds, Our legs intertwine like vines, Our breaths match simultaneously, You raise your back like you're Stretching your senses into my soul, I separate you into two dimensions And you still come back For another whole universe To explore.

Come Back For More
She whispered his name each Night like a prayer waiting to be Heard by a god she thought was There. The way the syllables Swirled round her tongue like an Ancient tale she didn't know but Felt when she heard her heart Beat. The feel of the letters on her Lips was like a childhood lullaby She had heard a thousand times But forgot the words to. She longed for the person she had Once known like her first name. But what she didn't know was that There are some things that must Just remain forgotten.

Lost fables
tell me back, think me into nothing but a straight line, a separation of roadways in the rearview. this is holy, this is a cathedral built of guilt and no guise – god unfolds the earth and splits us apart. that’s how I think of it anyway. I want to become past tense, an antecedent to all that is divine, “hail mary, full of graveyards, the lord was with thee” I want to become light – the most beautiful thing god ever created. I want you to think me into a saint. all I’m trying to say is that I want to be simple and pure – a testament to Love, assurance that it doesn’t have to be complicated. tell me back, think me into the first prayer, a plea for passion. I want to become god’s light.
