lines
cuts
and
traces
are
the
things
that
fill these spaces
the
sign of old age
in
our faces
you promised me
my heart's desire
then
gave me a flame
when
my heart wanted fire

the shower is on
the water never ceases
and I have to ****
haiku for my roommate
Aztec shaman
Summons Quetzalcoatl
In dance and jumps
Atop pyramids

Back arched
Soul bared
Awaiting to embody
The feathered serpent

Ancient gods
From the sky
Communication
Through ritual

The enemy's heart
Will pump in his hand
And slowly stop
As the gods consume

The life forces energy
And the shaman
And he
Are as
My souls *****
Torn

My mind
Penetrated

My love
Buried

My emotions in
Ruins

A zombie husk
Wanders

Like a cicada shell
Hollow

A once favorite toy
Discarded

I once was vibrant
Colorless

Why have you
Destroyed

What you once
Loved

I do not like this feeling
of thought processes spreading
in my mind,
like a dollop of molasses...

I do not like my temples throbbing,
but I do not like a mess...
this madness will make
a mad hatter out of me,
all my pieces will
scatter for infinity,
the treasures within me
soon lost at sea..

I do not like you.
I do not like you.
I do not like being
pushed to the edge,
I do not like you,
I do not like being
pushed overboard,
I do not like you,
I do not like the thoughts
messing with my head,
I do not like you.

But I stay,
and the owner
of red glowing eyes
surveys from above,
he does not like this love...
It looks too much like loyalty,
so my strength is all taken from me

With a single rip,
perseverance dead,
I am tired.

i think we were high once. you on your substances and me on my 1:56 am thoughts.

i think we were drowned once. you on your alcohol and me on my melancholic gospels.

i think we were deaf once. you from the excessive noises of life and me from the unwanted songs of silence of my lips.

i think we were blind once. you from the sun you always looked upon and me from the tears i offered to another.

i think we are high now. only, you on your 1:56 am thoughts and me on my substances.

how fast we fade.
one moment,
we were a forest fire.
the next one,
we were a clearing.

how slow we recover.
our flowers are still seeds,
our trees are still shrubs.
we still grow on the same earth,
under the same sky.
The sting of raindrops,
a thirst for outdoors.
Dusk, and the
whisper of leaves,
a certain silence. The evening hangs
still. I want to observe the
moment of change,
the discovery of strength,
a joining.
Featured along with other fine poems in my poetry collection, "Witch", available on Amazon or through Lulu.
