Yellows
Colour symbolising Texas
Exs and excess of sun
Joy forbidden in a country
Of baboonish law and minds gone

Yellows
Hue derived in rare
Brightness but a shade well-done
Bet your daughter's unaware
Of a background ****

This swimming against
The tide of my mind
Is exhausting.
Desperately fighting
To remind myself daily
Of the impossibility
Of us.
I can't find what's not in your heart.

i crumble on my feet
you look at me
like i’m the ground
thumping each step
with such vigor

even if i’ve managed
to keep the key
the points and turns
still earns for bliss
for what words say

treat it like honey dew
wrap it around like yarn
the way cats play them
as they form abstract
during mom’s daytime

i’ve been in the galaxy
coalesced with the stars
forged with the sun’s heat
wrapped around the planets
as the milky way release

i’m back to reality
and the temple remains
as it is even if i let
someone in or out
the path stays golden

Pennyborad rides
At the Spanish night
Lone bright mind
Sick of being tied

With her hands full of colour
With her pen raging thunder
Out with electric light

Risk a fortune
Risk a torture
Just for the sake of fun
Risk the rapture
Hidden in the fracture
Of the concrete sun

Aimless rides
On the spring kite
Lone monologue nights
Afraid of being high

With his hands empty of fear
With his strings sounding clear
Out with electric light
