#symolism
I have a therapist. She's been with me since birth. Watercolors on my soul. She spills black, and blue; sometimes red. Blood is to bright on the white page. I blush for the both of us. When all is out for the caged moments, I collapse and rest. I dream in metaphors, and I taste the sweetness of her inner thigh. Tangerines and treehouses. I wake to find her slurping on my soul, I seize her and she greets me with grief or gospel music, or obscure memories of vaginas long gone. We take this wild ride together forever learning from our symbiotic bond.

She Rides Wild, like the Wasp
The gears gnaw through hollow bone, Flesh burned to cinders, breath erased. The sun is buried, mute, alone, A corpse that stares from steel and waste. The rivers choke in copper veins, Their pulse confined to ghostly code. The wind is crushed beneath the chains, Its howls reduced to static, slow. The past, a shattered thing, decays, Its truth an echo in the ash. An old man’s breath is smeared, erased, His life dissolved in flickering flash. And still, they sleep, with vacant eyes, The mass unmarked by fire or stone. The hour’s toll, a muted cry, The final breath, a hollow drone.
