The mouth
does mysterious things
tasting your skin
like wine
your fluid lost down
my throat
I kiss you in
deliberate licks
the musk in shadows
divine intervention
rises and falls like
soft petals
and wet as rain...

Tanisha Jackland Dec 2015
A mystery has kept us into these fire roots.
But the spell has been broken upon our Judas lips.

Into this new skin out from the gravity of a gold ruin.
As faceless men attempt to take it all away.

Too naive to understand the scent of heat into their brains.
They are delicate holding their bellies with the breadth of their teeth.

But we all have wombs and are fetal within.
Growing strange new limbs every day.
Tanisha Jackland Dec 2015
You are this song
that keeps me going.
Even in your absence,
I am never depleted.
Its sweet spell widens
my heart over and over
again until you return
with glorious moons
rising in the faint swell
of your eyes.

I never know when it will erupt
Something profane
and unshackled
born deep within me

Some say it’s the soul
expressing itself
Defying this flesh and bone
But who am I to impede
It’s dawning

I cannot hold it
down much longer
It will devour me
Bit by bit
I will be consumed
Within its rage

Then I will burn like a witch…

You feed the void with monsters.

Anabel
darling,
there are winds
and then
there are ghosts
the hard part
is knowing
which is kissing your cheek
