Cat - Hello Poetry

Cat Jan 2017

I watched how these two rabbits chased each other in circles.
Each one playing the game.
Running,
then chasing.
Because that's how it goes right?

There's no legato in a soul

Souls respond to suffering
Imagination can eat those souls with fractured ambition
Sweet music speaks to souls
And can bend a souls ear more than anything it knows
Outstripping foolishness can differ arrangements in hell
Leaving the men below to see
Whether or not a soul can butch out old habits
Most souls chew fat
And everything clean too
The truth is most souls
Move through solitary speculation
After that first inkling of selfhood in a state of confusion
Reaches script in development
See you in hell

resonate

i wished i learned
how to let go
from the get go
because i wouldn’t
have changed faces
like a gecko.
her body was temple,
i painted art deco.
i fell for her tempo,
it resonates like an echo.
i trembled at her tone,
yet her treble alone
could break any heart
made of stone.
she’s known
to play her part,
she’s shown
she can master it.
she'll hit every note,
she’s drop dead
accurate.

Micah

intoxicated

you made flowers
grow in my lungs

and although they
are beautiful

I can't breathe.

I Found Myself this Way

Finger nail deep in dirt.
Dig.
Twisting my head too far,
in too many, too soon.
Until I find myself then,
twisting at the waist.
Allowing my knees to crumple.
Clutch them and cower.
Still walking this way.
Further into wet earth.
Connections clicking,
positives and negatives.
Maybe It's because i needed you.
Or,
I need you now.
Who am I,
to act so.
Do i even know you?
Or,
Is it that you need me more?

Cleanse

Sometimes, when I'm in the shower,
Ill recollect on how many lips I've kissed.
Staring at the tiles in front of me,
I'll let the steam and hot water pour over
and into me.

Sever the light

chased out of your body
numb
no quick way out
your stuck in yourself still
no
chase down the dream
yet in fumes of reveries
evade the real world
drown in yourself
no one else
cower from everyone else
pull away
and push them away
you saw it
then sawed it
full from yourself
escape yourself
null
don't breathe
