Back to Life

To give, to jump,
to reveal fully
and offer up
a living
sacrifice

what deeper meaning is there?

Malia

4, 3, 2, 1; 1, 2, 3, 4

I walk on the four-est floor
With three scrapes on my knees
Two hands clasped together
As we climb one tree

One sky almost as blue as her eyes
Two clouds that look like sighs
Three times I trace a scar on her thigh
The four-est floor below me

why was six afraid of seven? cuz seven eight nine

Searching for Flo

I'm not a big fan of flies,
but I don't hate them.
I don't really like pies,
but I can make them.

I love my life, and can
fake it when I don't.
I could go on with
this poem, but it's
the end, so I won't.

Fact on Opinion

Are you sure of what you said?
Maybe the opposite is true
The most you can attest
Is that you’re sure of it
For you

The Tranquilizer

I am peace in the flesh
A reprieve from distress
The primordial Netherworld’s
Retrospect death
An angelic embrace
Fall from Grace
Bliss despair
And I fluctuate
Dreamscapes
Like any nightmare

Bird of Prey

Bird of Prey

I feel your shadow from above
  hunting me with your eager eyes.
  I always told you of my weakness
tear my love apart with  your lies.
  Keep your talons from my flesh.
  Spare my heart. Ignore my carrion.
  Share your heat on our wedding bed.
  Stay with me through the bitter end.
