Mother nature turns her head
as Felicity floats her feline tred
whom will she give her fickle time
and wed her fleeting flirtatious rhyme
but just when she is in your grasp
she flings her bouquet in the mob

A picture
                 slices a sliver of time
                                the traveller rewinds
and misses a beat

We can live life
                                          or
create timelines unlived

Robot replaces all unpleasantries

A picture,
cut from the reel of reality.
Nobody to miss the time,
between the jumpcuts.
Except, when you've had
a few too many

I hurt you,
because I want you
to love me.
I desert you,
because I want to
be chased.
I know I cause you pain,
I want to be your love's teary stain.
And when your fever keeps you up at night,
let my skin be your strap to bite.
All these things I do,
really,
I want to hurt
for you.

Under the chrome canopy
and clear blue sky
sunshine in minds
I guzzle gasoline

Ash under eye
asunder I scorch
as sand unseen
vermilion tangerine
spleen malignancy

Transplendent leash
flickers merry and brief
married my relieve
ash
       of time
                     lingers

Cinders in the air
incendiary incendiary
many narrow many hairy
getaway car black tar
road

Small human
let me help you
don't be ugly
I know it's hard
life has a funny way
of turning against you
but here's a hint:
pain distilled is beauty.
DeityDog says look for beauty
