Thimble Wishes
L T Winter Oct 2014
For all--the hunger wishes,
Launched from sky lilies
We lead them to descend.

And I guide your soul-swishes
Upon-a-dance of moon sprinkles,
Time keepers laugh in pretend.


Interlocked hearts causing--

It's
       Myriad of rotations.
Candles sing beyond our ponders,
And pedestal gazes.


Take with you my meadows
Mellowing tears.


We
      Us
           (You and I)


Seek patient sparrows...
As they squawk; silently,
With words, fragments

These love-abyes.


Kept constant awakenings
Watching, thoughts of you,
Strengthen...


My thimble of complete.

Yearning--

I await...

Shadow Cape
L T Winter Jun 2015
I wear it- to shackle sorrows.
and breathe dynamite
In siren light.

'Purity'
Is blind--
As

Blackness questions
My fabric's regret
I have closed palms
And now I bleed-gum
Frets--

The silhouette-disjointed
With withering away
In disappointment

Digs a trench-
No bigger than a

Whis--per
Saying sorry.

If Ink Was White.
L T Winter May 2015
My death is inevitable
And I stare at pixel
Clouds because forgetting
Is living there.

The horizon is bleak
Yet I still staple my hands
To the table out
Of boredom--

Waiting for unchanging things
To transform.

Hanging Marble Trellis
L T Winter Mar 2015
Red washes off
Our faces,
And stitches tie
Fingers-in-bindings

--Forever

Two foot-daisies
Hanging talons
With horse hooves

Trample lightning
Silhouettes on marble
Trees-

And we bleach
Sun-skin--

Between your toes-
More or less.

Aranea Wisps
L T Winter Sep 2014
Staring at endemic
This aráneam friend; crossing-
Few limbs attempting.

Spindle weaving spigots; as-
He levitated eighteen--
Appendages, bewildering
Dainty beauty.

It was his connection--
To sound that; perplexed.
Me-as-the-human.

Watching, watchers, tick.

Patiently pretending my dear-
Arthropod; that scares.

Silver-sound Stealer
L T Winter Jan 2015
I've contained my
Soul-in-a-cardboard
Jar--
Watching its eternal weep

Until irises blind-themselves
Because barely shoulder length
Hours have passed.

We wield grayling hair
Though wingspan arms
Now pad this jar with
Silence and broken voices
Each-day--

Sleeping magic
Find no notes
With nobody-
As of being as beings and beings

The Song Of Broken Pieces
L T Winter Jul 2015
My teeth keep-
          Falling out
                 When I speak

And they choke
On insomniac dreams
As I swallow them--

Finger nails-
Belittled by dearth
Took ephemeral essences

With tears they
Destroyed the meanings-
Of love,

To revel solely
Alone in a void
Crafting broken pieces.
578 · Aug 2015
Alphabetical Light
L T Winter Aug 2015
I eat ice
To avoid falling snow

And you see illogical
Contrasts making friends

With alphabetical dinosaurs
Endangering strangers endeavours

But we're human after all.

While wisps stay
To glow
Without light.

To Converse With Demons
L T Winter Sep 2015
L: Hello B.
B: Hey--

L: I breathe dragon parts and leprechaun skin.

B: You're broken flames blinking gold-dust away with the sun.

L: We were dancing ancient tongues
for icy dreams and lead-lined seams.

B: Fireworks stole away our seals as we cried at frayed stitches, bleaching eyes.

L: I knew the clouds you kept, but I'm singing rosey buttons and westward hedges.

B: I'll see you--in the soft winds- murmuring to bushes and stifling sound-light.

L: Cataracts bind us for more will come.
Not a clue, something diff?

Ghost-Fletching
L T Winter Sep 2014
We are the-
Unattainable
Lampshades--flickering
On and off-
In-and-out
With
And without.

--And her skin
Is all I can breathe.

I write in cartilage
Memoirs just to feel
Unfeeling.

But we love unfairly
Until digging nails
Into walls--

Becomes beautiful

We-the-unreachable

Time And Thyme Again
L T Winter Jan 2015
It's been an hour,
A measurement of time
And thyme--

All the clocks are breaking
Somehow-the-hands
Aren't moving.

So I've been waiting,
Patiently in this hour-
-Of never passing
To feel oxygen

-With my hands again
And water in my lungs.
543 · Jul 2016
Cigarettes Made of Reed
L T Winter Jul 2016
Broken glass-embers
Sizzle; silence.
And maroon agony.

I'm trapped here
Sifting through those bones-
Again-- I was
Asking angels for cigarettes
Made of reeds.


And they spoke in itchy eyes,
Aching doubts.

So I lay there in
Crimson ashes-
Waiting for the
Make believe to tell me toxins.

To Recall Recent Memories
L T Winter Aug 2022
When we sit at staionary station
Watching
Our essence drift by
Sometimes you'll find the strength
To reach out
At the trails left behind.

But sometimes you won't.

And as you impound
These thoughts, it's already too
Late.

You wait, wondering where; people
Have gone,
You open your eyes, realising they were never closed.
And you tumble slightly onto the tracks.

As the memoirs of your evening come back,
You awaken screaming internally at all the empty faces.

You squint briefly
To the inconveince of blinking.

But you are no longer there.

The Cannibal In Me
L T Winter Jun 2016
I've been licking sandpaper,
-Again scraping away
The disease.
I let you carry,

There were only icicle covered
Cannibals; bearing hearts of lead.

My anchor to it is gone--

I think-
I think.

-I killed it for fear,
And now I'm sugarcoating-
Poisons, giving cysts.

To lesser parts of me.
Help me--

I would ask the husk of my heart.
Unabletofeel.

Our Skin It Sighs
L T Winter Sep 2014
Hessian chains unbind--

Us.

And we lay
Coating names
On clouds.

Tilting titles with
Rainbow scents.

I leaf blackthorn-
Mythology to
Fungi tears; weeping moss
From stone.

Though skies smudge--

Empty.



She shows me the softness
Of bramble.
As we hold a song of siren sighs-
Silhouettes pulse art.

And I tingle lightly
In caring flames.
Although almost never speaking.
She forms white-wishes

Inbetween my heart; my head.

Pinstripe Louver
L T Winter Jan 2015
Its autumn biloma
And spring-bile holocausts--
I love them both differently-

While we scream at mountains
To hiccups that show-the-buds-
Of leaves to lions.

This love is pinstripe
-Daggers making femur bone
Candles,

With silk weavers and-
Asterisk ribbons,

But one--
Is more
​Friend than
Louver.

Mercury And Woe
L T Winter May 2015
Sitting inside silicon
Whirlpools-clapping--
Away-mercury
Tears.

I'm a chimerian sphinx
Accepting airless-
Han-ker-chiefs,
Showing polyporus-chimneys

Wheezing darkness
For meridian sanctuaries.

I've been threading
Biscuit silk into sorrow--
And now--
Summer-blind
Without the bead.
I know this won't reach many but thanks to those who read.

Authentic Decorations
L T Winter Oct 2015
Clouds speak
With lunar light,
As droplets
Slither from gravity.

Ambers; whites; greys; blacks
Slowly blurring boundaries
In tornado fashions.

My bag of mani-fes-tations
Drips blood quietly
While they kiss; coldly
As if forever existed.

I gave them intestine
Necklaces, and hung them from
My tree-
To make decorations.

After cerebral dancing
Their brains were gone,
But wax filled eyes-
Crafted pumpkins.

--Now I wait
-For-the-knock
Trick-or-treat?

Slow-hinds Even Minds
L T Winter Oct 2015
Orchard scents- frothy
Callowing to winter
Mammoth months

Procrastinate reflexes
-With extra-terrestrial soil
Chanting souls.

Breathing infernos
Captured; though
In a form-
Of hearts and heralds.

Tethering Frabjous
L T Winter Mar 2015
It's seven-
-Syllables too quiet
And I twitch--

From teachers on my hand
Open-- close-
Open-- close

Canyons of flesh
Etch pain for remembrance
To the familiarity,

Of skin that dances
To sun-kissed residues.

Sleeping Shroudily
With meadow-blossom
Tethered by the wind.

But frabjous day  
Is counted, in minutes and
seconds.

Made of earthquakes
Catching clouds.
499 · Feb 2016
Withering Winds
L T Winter Feb 2016
She'd been dressing-empty-tears
-Again.
And the chalice we
Shared as friends,

Now Shivers as
She eats bramble dishes
I express to noone forlorn
Memories applauding to echoes
Collapsing--

'Empty everlasting rooms.'

She's weeping upon her pillows
While the wardrobe creeps outside
To visit meadows; trees
From wence it came.

I'm digit-ally connected to nothing
Except my duvet whose keeper of secrets
And my phone which never rings-

Except to greet the winds, as all things wither without--

To dust.
496 · Feb 2015
Wayward Wings
L T Winter Feb 2015
Wearing dolor made
Of song, they lift
Discoloured wings

Raindrops begin to
Levitate--upward-
As blackness tramples
In oozing water--

I breathe amongst-insanity
Brandishing the bones of
Butterflies-with-sickly
Pixie magic.

Aileron grow-
Flattened-again-by
-starting points.

White-silvery things
Blink with beadiness
When I throw-
Midnight inside
Body parts,

Still shying from-
Those--
Wayward thoughts.

Cayman Dust
L T Winter Jan 2015
'I should be dead'


Said the sleeping-
Sadness--
Trying to speak blind
With cayman lips.

This dust is different
Lingering internally-
Flailing at unchangeable.

There were pieces,
Like me--but-
Crafted from puzzle
I left them inside-the-clouds.
On the pathways-
And with her skin-

-Though the atmosphere stole them.

My familiarity had gone-
And now--
All I have,
Is singing carcinogens,
Gargling on numb.
493 · May 2015
Insert Trust Here
L T Winter May 2015
I think my marbles
Have trust and commitment issues
I said while carving out my heart and Slicing it into tree rings before anyone else could.
Just a thought

Daylight Nectar
L T Winter Jan 2015
I
The viral precipice,

Of epileptic terminology.


Stare into eclipse

Light bestowed.



On sins…

As solitary silence

Begins to forget disease.






And I began to think…



Maybe this is how

I’m meant to be.

Weightlessly We Wink

I can't feel my nails crushing beneath a mountain of weightlessness- but I can hear them, as these muscles reinstate tooth-ache agony with every blink.

I Speak With Attics.
L T Winter Aug 2015
Younger now--
Winking-wards-back-
-Never feeding satchels
With broken thumbs.

Slightly sniffing-
Sorrows in--
Decrepit hand-bags,

The silence is short.

And supposing day-beings
Are breaking evenings,
For nights that always come.

We know attics; see-how
Detached I am.
That boldness of single
Salmon-sand.

Sipping Blisters
L T Winter May 2015
Feet mar soot
As they ask tip-toeing
Gravity--

Why-

I feel nothingness
In my bones
Sipping calcium
From old skeletons.

-Now

Close your eyes,
Because this story
Has lost belief.

And trees burn sesame
Seed strings,
-You-understand-endings

Screaming oceans
Collecting-depressive-
Humming birds,

Unwilling to-flap-
Their wings--

Nowadays-everywhere
Tastes like burnt tongues
And bursting blisters

Trying for brighter days.

The Mythology Of Forgetting
L T Winter Jun 2015
Blurry leaves a blowing
In the wind-
Belching to blackbirds
Pulling sadness from
Teeth--

Blood; drinkable-
Blindness-

Spits mythology with
Atoms saying,
Admantium dreams-
There's-an-ocean
Sway--

Sweeping beneath
The soul-and I
--And I

Forget--

My fate bestowing
Feet amidst shelves
Made of shin.  

To an uncentered
Head as centerpiece.

The Plumage Malady
L T Winter Jan 2015
A feather fell--

Tumblers twirled slowly
To devolve-
Finger-faces.

Around this world
Of out stretched nails.

They were pure red with mere seconds,
Though tendrils fumbled for periods more.

We could fit in between-
Folder-bindings.

These were concealed
By blue branches--
Because the skies had
Tripped over.

And wishes were skulked
From memory lane.

This--
This where
Only space existed.

I should have worn my stilts.

Decipher
L T Winter Oct 2014
--It's time
To titter my-ribcage
Concealing-an-eyelids-
Truth,

Begin loosening your
Constriction of me.


--I'm lonely, Much-more-
So than twiddling thumbs.

Ignoring precipice isn't
The problem--
Knowing always, it's here
And found at ease.

****'s samples of egg yolk.

Maybe-that's-why,
So many fear this.

At extension, I adore it-
Relish inside intestines,
Made of glass--
Legs.


I'm the-observer.
The-Watcher.
But now--

I need-
--I need

Something more,
Than distance.

Ceramic burdens
Box these in.

The Wither-ings.

The Unreadable Poem
L T Winter Sep 2014
This--
This is for an overdue
'Heart'
That-barely-feels-
Moments

When voice chord waterfalls
Are strangling bones from life.
I construct the smoke
We breathe-

When peaceful I'll spindle
Gills upon my neck,
Hoping to become part fish.

Even though it's crusting eyes.
With re-readble.
For me wishing on unfeasible.

Ghost-bound Spores
L T Winter Apr 2015
She's ghost-bound
Dead,
Counting silent breath
On airwaves--

And oaken elephants--
Weather through
The distillation
Of time-

We're time-travelling
Whispers; nanoseconds
Catching spores,
Spelling--

She's mine-
My only one.
Been a while, since words spoke.

To Play, But Flesh
L T Winter Feb 2015
Teeth carve each
Spinal column from
You-- and
The distress that follows

Becomes-violin-chess-pieces,
Lining
Stomach's skin for love.

I play with fingerless hands
But my lungs are
Silicon infested

So I search trachea
Storms that
Craft sound from
Glass-panel maces.

Slumber
L T Winter Sep 2014
Snow Falling on
Blue bells long gone
Meadows upon land vast
Aching for miles...

Of superficial beings,
Trees
Vegetation
Slow to even tide
Winds

Perfectly flawed crisp flake
Down on,
An object bound
In open white.

A fleck of peach
Amidst placid weather
Winter is forever

...Holding...

Pieces of love
In decay..
And as the creeps become
Crawlies; come out to play.

They each emerge from its mouth with only peace.

The human remains in silence

Never-Ever Decades

Decades aren't waiting
For our centuries to think.

--As she sings- violet
Zebra sticks,
Dinner; dancing

To the severity
Of dreaming never-evers,

I'll deny them for her
Because I belong
With the wind she
Carries carefully in her hands.

The Artistry Of Death
L T Winter Dec 2016
There's blood-
Its warm as it dribbles
Melan-choly with the floor
Half somber,

Its changing things slowly
Brok-er-ing gravity-

There's cruor
Incanting elixirs
On never-read
Centipede's fiction

And we stir softly
For-never and always
As the slabs begin
To grow--

Cold.

Salting Glass

It's-similar-salted.
Grain-
Kissing friction in my chest.

She's a glint of missing--
Harmonies,
Half composed; nearly
Finished alphabet-
Auras.


Coppicing eloquence as
Sanctuary sits-
Chirping on shoulders,

--Symbiosis.

Sharp-sand rubs,
Time--
Into hanker-chief glass.

Tree Of Bones

Maybe I should
Carve slices
Of skin

To--

Consolidate her
With the pieces-
Because my blood
Is all I have.

As-

An acacia tree
It grows thorns
Out of eye sockets,

And it's shadow
Cast's sorrow where
We used to speak.

Sycophant Phylactery

There's an echo--
Imitation...

Here where empty space lives.

--Breathes.

A shell of a former-anterior me.

Tingled once,
With aspirations until
I retracted into
Siphon-like demons.
Breathing umbilical cords
Casting contagion.

Riposte; for cures
As their existence is fain.
While ignoring there properties.

I've been consuming
Blood from others,
And wearing their husks
Because their personalities
Could-also be mine.
