When the sun ultimately bleeds from its circumference,
We will burn
in beauty;
in grace.

Raven
I want to see what is hidden
I want to see what is forbidden
In the darkest of darkness
Covered and clothed by shadows

It is watching
At all times
It is waiting
Shackled in binds

For when I see
It waits with glee
It will be free
To hunt me
I have been through
enough to know it
would be easy to give
up hope on the hard
days, but have survived
enough to know that
sometimes it’s all you
Have .
There's nothing good found,
In the one different from the rest,
Ready to head west,
While others look north;

Of a different shade,
And not to be confined,
To the averageness of existing,
Without actually living, fully.
Colours are what they are.
There's a girl
Behind the windows
Waiting for the Moon
So she may smell it
As she is blind
🌙

Tonight the clouds go on,
and on,
and on,
forever in a sky so navy blue.
Parallel lines
stretching beyond light's reach.
I desire
to fall up
into the dark spaces
between.

My stars, the lights of earth.

A Wouldn’t Object Limerick

for a few reasons to objectify,
peddle her a pedestal to request
a little eyeliner, some mascara,
actual clothes of non-athletic wear lineage,
cease and desist with daily loon of lulu-ness;
dare not suggest some lipstick or heaven forbid,
a piece of jewelry sparkle, lest I be trussed
and tested, returned to the closet to join
my fella sweatpants of graying demeanor,
of colorless pallor
and
smelly familiarity

Tsk,
tsk,
what a bliss.

Good whiskey
and miss.

Not even cupid's arrow
can save this.
