What blur is vision,
When woman, kind,
Naked as the moon,
Shines in such cool
Light as the stars lit,
In ink of night, scribe
Such spell as ancient
Vocabularies mystify,
Without translations,
The heart is drowned
Feeble as emotions,
Rosetta of thorny cut,
Blood spilt in desires
Hard as sarsen alone,
About circle rounding,
A universe unbounded,
For love is kind poison
In nightshade of moon.
When moon like an empty plate
mocks the hunger
the famished bones hunt for a morsel.

Clinks of cutlery fires the belly
aroma of meals calls like a melody

there's a table full of happy faces
chewing and chuckling and chattering
picking eating dropping and littering
their plates are full aha never less
food after food over food always
a fire in oven a bed of clean sheet
never they're they're never short of heat
eyes that are heavy droop easy soon
behind tightly shut windows to the moon
.

Snuffed out will ***** out all traces of light
they break into wails rending the night
nothing now moves over the dead town
except the bones with moon as the crown.
narrow potholed roads
long winding switchbacks
blind corners that lead
the chosen to heaven

the rest of us
sinners

rotting slash piles
in a clear cut
fireweed rising
from raw earth

in this land of trees
the forest is forgotten
Tonight there's no pen or paper
It's your body and my tongue
I wish to use your body as a canvas
And paint an exquisite picture with words
Let's see what i can come up with...
...(my mouth is really watering for you)
(reposted for a very special friend)

Reaching........for her hand........
a tether,
between two hearts

"Come, and I will take thee
to a new land...
and only you
Will know it's name"

"
Where fireflies sparkle
as stars on an 'ebon' nite-
Where fairies dance,
as Luna sings....
Whilst' Unicorns feast
on the Heather"....

"Sleep... my lady, sleep"......
for the land of which I speak...
Awaits you* ..............

"In your dreams"


r.riddle: 08-05-2016
"Morpheus" is the Greek God of Dreams.
I know I just took the biggest spill,
But, I cannot live without the adrenaline thrill.
I know it hurts you to barely see me walking.
But, I'll always find a way to stand with all this aching.

I know this was a big scare for you,
But, I will continue to pursue the things I love to do.
Your mother intuition never seems to fail.
Because you were able to see the ail;

That I tried to hide in the shadows.
My brother, I'm sorry blood dripped from my hands onto your pillows.
I'm sorry you were also scared.
This mysterious accident left me impaired.

Only temporary
For I am already on the road to recovery.
My hobbies do come with consequences;
But it will not stop me from going against those forces.
When I got home I asked my bro if mum was home. He said "no, **** what the hell happened to you". I went to go lay on his bed not realizing I was getting blood on his favorite pillows. When my mum got home she automatically knew something was wrong even though I tried to hide my pain. Mum said "get up, get up, lemme see how bad you are". The fact that I couldn't stand, she knew I was in pretty bad shape.
The 'living' consume the 'living'
Ergo , the mountains are the truest compassionate entities

You're in my head.
