Orchid

Orchid Aug 2023

A nuance undoubted
Penchant
Candid
Breast milk matured
Turned sour
Rancid
Screams so astounded
Fly as man did
Cry with intent
Leave unaccounted

Detergent

A particularly partial postponement of grieves,
Lie then spit grace at my tongue with ease

Unfollowed by saviours
Unprocessed, unclean

Cartwheel by powders
Puffed and pristine

Paimon

A weakness with tweaks
And the mind of a freak
I fear if she was loved
She'd turn the other cheek
So on Christ's behalf, I speak
I live vicariously
And will walk on cracked soil
As water hurts my feet

Shadow

He said

“Your soul will grace the skies”
As he wept and cried
Unloaded his gun
And put the bullet in mine

Cacao

Our love to me, bittersweet,
for making me love you like this I despise.

Is it bad I want my baby to hold the same shine that glazes your eyes?

Sphere

Your heartbeat sings for me
In a world I call our own

I love you helplessly,
May my mind be your home

Orchid May 2023

Haze

Ride the melody
With an oak wood lip
I just long for a taste
Of your marinated kiss

A lick of the earth
Can't satisfy my needs
But a touch of the ether
the beyond, the unreached.
