Vividly emblazoned in my mind is you the most beautiful body of work. Wanting nothing more than to write the sweetest arias about the depths of your heart. Fingertips mapped constellations where words dared not go, and the night became a river pulling us deeper, slower, where time dissolved into touch. Your kisses speak a language of velvet and fire, rewriting the silence between us, as you taught me the rhythmof surrender and return. The world slipped away when your lips met mine, a hunger, a prayer, a thousand sparks bursting into endless flames lit up my night like fireworks. I opened my third eye and we fell into eternity As your body pressed against mine, the rhythm of our shadows dancing against the moon light. The vision of you on replay body to body cheek to cheek heat pooling between us like a secret too heavy to keep. As you buried your secrets deep into me. A first encounter turned into to soul binding acclimation Your mouth was claiming the taste was sweet. Like lightning and thunder forming against the night sky. The deeper you pulled me and I crashed harder into you until the sweetest cries broke from me like a prayer. The feel of every gasp a confession, every shiver a vow, every gaze a promise, every kiss a reminder and every taste a claim. As we reached the peaks of mountains together our bodies sang songs of old and new turning into fire burning, breaking, booming two hearts lost and found again in the oldest language of desire.

After Glow
When my guilt paralyzes me, when my shame makes me cower under the piercing lights of discovery, my shoulders melt. Bone becomes fluid, leaks into cavities, pools around my organs in puddles: puddles that fill crevices, then freeze. Molecules grow closer, fit to form, cementing my fears together like negative space on a statue. My guilt and shame were read to me like bedtime stories every night at nine. My quilt was littered with secret hurts to cover with shrugs and a stoic face. I wasn't just taught to take the blame and accept responsibility for that which I can't control: I was taught how to bury it in the backyard, how to papier-mache a mask over my reddening cheeks, to soak up my salty woes and further solidify the facade. As the years passed and practice made perfect, my entire body became encapsulated in fear and pride. Independence burned bright in my self-descriptions, but all I truly had to offer was an island, desolation built upon an inevitability. I was taught to hold secrets like water, a never-ending flood of pieces of myself. My reflection once told me to stop: there was so much debris, I was manic static over a vital broadcast. That hunger took hold, ripped the pain right out of my lungs like warm breath on a chilly morning. But self-awareness dissipated just as quickly. Acclimation; Stockholm syndrome. I came to covet the shell, unbreakable like the vice over your heart. I was taught not to burden; I was taught not to trust.

Look! I'm super ******* clean! I stepped into the falling water and inched my way toward total submersion. It was steaming hot and my skin had yet to acclimate. Upon said acclimation I lathered up a palmful of smell-good gel and got to work on my armpits and my torso. I washed my way down to my belly button and then I retrieved another handful of body wash. As I worked it into my hair then my beard, and I used the excess suds to scrub my **** and my nuts. From there I covered my thighs and worked down my legs. I turned away from the showerhead and scrubbed my ******* clean with one more dollop of Old Spice. I stepped into the burning streams of water and rid myself of the day's sweat and grime in one big, dark puddle swirling down the drain. I took one more dab of soap and worked it into a foam. But I hesitated before I washed my face, because I realized that I had just *scrubbed my ******* with the same hands I use to *wash my ******* face** with.* But I then sighed and did it anyway.

Brother Dog
In my mind I see beauty, Priceless imaginations and fantasies, Still so many pass by, Never to have truly lived; A Spalsh of water, Dozens of droplets left To hang in suspension, Temporarily weightless; A hillside ablaze, tragic As it might be, as the tress A hundred feet tall fall, Yet life will renew one day; Two bodies lie together, One wrapped by the arms Of another, in silence, Motionless, in love; Standing on the shore, Waves thrashing about ankles, The sunset so still, Sleepy above the horizon; Summer rains Drench our clothes, As thunder and lightning Storm and rumble our hearts; Laying in the grass, Warm and dry and green, Watching from above, As clouds pass below; Lengthy moments, with Another, and you see Behind those eyes, The discorded truth; The capricious life, Led when one finds Adventure - finally, Air that gives breath; Trees in a forest, Shuddering in wind Prepared to die, To serve others always; The dance of a flame, Lit upon a candle, As if it was such a stage, Of respect and acclimation, The embrace of friends, Love, new and old, Kinship undying, Future unnerving; An infant child, Held in arms built of Love and other fine things, Spoken to in honest tongue; An evening in the yard, A ball tossed about, Suns set each time, Times long since past; The will to live, Truly a special gift, That which not all ascertain, Not granted to all alive; The symphony made up, From tiny noises does it emanate, Strong, resolute, with finesse Collectively, in cooperation; From atop the highest peaks, On mountain tops abroad, The world sprawled out In utterly perfect disarray; Passion for Love and Living, For oneself and for others, For the tradition and routine, For the surprise and serendipitous; Crystal clear waters, Amply temperate air, Sunlight broken intermittently, By green trees and foliage abound; The propensity to change, To mold, shape, to evolve, In fear out of the light, Found within everything.

Its teeth are longer and sharper than any other unforgiving beast on this planet. The hairs that ***** on the back of its neck are charged solely by curiosity, and its eyes burn electric yellow— never breaking gaze with so much as a blink. Indigenous to every silent crack of this earth, it requires no sleep or acclimation. No living thing can out run it, and if it sets its sight in your direction, do not try to argue your fate. Its presence alone will bring you to your knees, and wherever it chooses to sink its fangs will ensure immediate affliction. This—a  sickness of insatiable wonder. To sit still now will surely be the death of you, because, darling, you’ve been bitten— plagued forever with knowing that millions of somewheres have suns that are rising, and you cannot rest until you’ve had a chance to paint them all.

“Poetry teaches one to read casuistry and put into fluency of words, A reality of contributing the internal thoughts of rapture in mending,   Come to pass but it is a poet’s way of living the arts of expression, Art of expression for the poet as well as a benefit for the reader, Life through philosophy of words affixed to realization of the subject When there is obscurity another spectrum of an unusual piquancy, A poet and writers life is always looking for that germane connotation, Daydreams of delusion or a nightmare with a colloquy word equanimity, When everything is onerous we reach a point of imperious efficacy, Mind body and soul an inimical to dream and precipitous thought with no end,   An uninterrupted moment of solitude and words moments of cessation rest, In all this words teach a poet care for loved one or dear friend to aplomb, Until lovers or friends may meet once again earnest  in Poetic Acclimation”   By Andrew Guzaldo 03/11/2019 ©

“POETIC ACCLIMATION”
This is my spirit leaking these are my dreams creeping This is my soul seeking these are my bones creaking This is my mind bending these are my words blending This is my heart vending these are my thoughts fending This is my breath heaving these are my fingers weaving This is my world leaving these are my memories grieving This is my blood rushing these are my lungs crushing This is my luck flushing these are my veins gushing

Acclimation
Black and White red alone the darkest nights we together sown, rainbows of humanity grown show evolutions insanity In self preservation not acclimation or empathy The land now shared was my kin and wrists enslaved were known the chains still seen today the ashes of all the days shall not be our destiny We all need to band to find a resolution and solutions to inhumanity and solve our woeful plight we need but see our common blood red and pure and clean let grey be the hue we all should see not black, nor white, nor red!

Hues of grey
I reminisce on memories of before we ever touched Cherishing what had yet to happen Already missing you so much -Tue Digital communication and lifelines of long distance shaped our love's acclimation to suffer with our persistence -Wed A decade passed... and then another half just faded away without seeing your face. What a ******* waste. -Thu But now we have forever because whereever is now in my arms And no matter how hard I love you You still soften to my charms -Fri 13, March 2015

A week of transition
Don't get used to me, please. That's how it starts. Remember when we met? See me as you saw me then. There must've been something to make you want me. Remember it, please. Keep it new. I'm doing my best to be new To still be exciting To still make you interested. I don't know my success rate. I think it's low. I've been through it before. Once you get used to me, You start forgetting. You forget why you wanted me. You forget any reasons to keep me around. Reasons to still try. So, you stop. So, we stop. So remember me, please. Was it my words? my face? my tiger shirt? Whatever it is, don't forget. I'll drink more to get back to those words. I'll put on more makeup to bring back your favors. I'll wear that shirt all you like. But please, I'm asking you. Don't forget me. Don't get used to me.
