I like being underwater because it reminds me of a different world. Like the rim of the atmosphere, or the inside of a womb where everything is slippery, even the past, and all I can remember is the air in my lungs. I like being underwater because it reminds me of when you held me above the water as a child that time we walked too far past the ******* and could no longer touch. You hoisted me up on the hips that birthed me and beatering your legs you struggled, your hairline trimming the surface so I could breathe. And when we finally swam back onto the ridge you panted to the rhythm of the waves. Looked down at me and smiled, “That was fun, wasn’t it?” Fingers interlocked on the way home down the beach, where bare feet walk on wet handlebars in the morning and footprints are flooded at night by the moon. The ability to erase but mostly I like being underwater because I am made of water. And so are you. And the ocean surrounds me with the salt of your last breath felt stroking my cheek with weak, small hands waving goodbye. You were so small and the water is so big, yet when I’m under, all I feel is you.

I like being underwater
You were no Eve of Russian literature like Pushkin’s precious Tatyana. You were no young, innocent, provincial girl seduced by cynical Onegin, that bon vivant corrupted by modern European values. You were no mysterious Russian soul brimful of essential purity and self-sacrifice - with a love of pain and pure disdain of happiness. Tatyana resisted all temptation, refusing to take flight, rejecting the man she loved. She was too good to be true; but you, Anna what a pickle you got yourself in, choosing ****** sin. You could share an affair with dashing Vronsky elope with him and leave behind your husband abandon your beloved son, Alexei. But these were not the dreadful choices sealing your tragic fate, my dear Anna. It was those ****** feelings you chased all based on the sin of selfishness. You fed on romance, passion and desire. Your hot-hunger was insatiable, a fire rip-roaring through restraint and all decorum You sweated and panted wild for ****** They say you’re a ‘drama queen’; heartless and mean a woman undone by excess, always longing to undress nakedly making grand errors of judgement. By ignoring Tatyana’s fine example, you certainly forgot there will always be those who tot up the ledger. Your blood debt was owing, it had to be paid. You saw the light at the end of the tunnel - cool down, Anna, let the raw feelings subside be watchful, wary and ever-ready to step aside let the moments of menace and gloom drain – it might just be an oncoming train is due. © M.L.Emmett 2016

i did not grow up with siblings. i grew up with half-sisters, half-brothers, a step mom, just like in cinderella. except i never met her. and i never will. (my dad would rather slash his own throat) i was by myself, with beanie babies and whispering sunlight. i had to cover my ears when the screaming pierced, blindfold my eyes when blood tainted the creases. i made friends through my bathroom tiles, the wavy puddles looked like old men, like crushed flowers. i talked to inanimate objects, squirrels lurking behind bushes. with the first bunny, i grabbed onto his fur. with the first dog, i howled and panted, hoping to become. i drew elaborate stories upon sidewalks, vanished into the lines of majestic quests. the real world was nothing but glass with tainted red. “didn’t you wish you had siblings?” i escaped. i’m here, with scrapes and broken bones, but i’m here.

imaginary friends
My faint spirit was sitting in the light Of thy looks, my love; It panted for thee like the hind at noon For the brooks, my love. Thy barb, whose hoofs outspeed the tempest’s flight, Bore thee far from me; My heart, for my weak feet were weary soon, Did companion thee. Ah! fleeter far than fleetest storm or steed, Or the death they bear, The heart which tender thought clothes like a dove With the wings of care; In the battle, in the darkness, in the need, Shall mine cling to thee, Nor claim one smile for all the comfort, love, It may bring to thee.

From The Arabic (An Imitation)
It was July and something inside of her began to thud. small and light as a pulse grew from a seed at the bottom of her belly, weaved and braided with veins, commandeered organs like ivy on headstones. washed up and sprouted from her chewed down fingernails, popped blood vessels in her eyes. she thought, 'if this isn't dying then it must be blooming.' this new presence was abashed by the absence of Arabic script and an African summer. it wept at dogs as they panted; they could let go so easily- a few deep heaves and they're back to pure. easy and breezy and not the sad, harsh tear of skin below shoulders, the bruises creeping over wrists and the shredded esophagus. the soiled heart and tar-heavy soul. it panicked more and more as the calender blew past. it sobbed as tomorrow became today and today became yesterday. i lived a hazy summer. brown skin and hair that turned red at the crinkly ends as it baked. i walked through cornfields and slipped on husks. landed on my back and erupted in giggles at the snowglobe sky protecting me and caging me. incense and gin were as consistent as the advent sun. music blaring and bodies bumping and no release. no escape. my little book of plans was solid and secure. and then smashed. ripped. no poetry and braids. not dreamy just silly.

Fall 2010 lost, lost, lost.
I sat at the foot of his bed, and he stood beside me with his pants half down, the top of his belt hugging the base of his **** and a thick bed of ***** hair curling over his jeans. On the sides of his upper-thighs where they grabbed the hips, his skin was striped with razor lines. “I cut myself here so no one can see.” People never trust you with these sorts of things when you’re sober. Then they open up to you with such shocking honesty and determination to reach something human in someone else, secretly trying to identify something human in themselves. I thought to myself “what kind of genuine advice can I give him?” I thought this because I didn’t actually have anything genuine to tell him. I was riddled with uncertainty—which I certainly wasn’t about to reveal to him. I kept searching for the advice that would mend the sores of my half-panted friend with his bare thighs in my face and his heart on the floor in-front of my laced converse. But I had nothing. So I simply told him, “Want to get lunch sometime?” He agreed that we would. A few days went by, and both of us got distracted with life as tends to happen. Our lunch date felt more and more remote. But then I started to feel a little sad myself. Then I started to feel a lot sad, and I thought about death a lot. I wondered if this was the way he felt before talking to me, so I called him and asked to meet me for lunch. We met up in a Chinatown bar, drinking cheap beer and trying to be young. After a few sips, he asked me why I had been feeling sad lately, but I still didn’t know what to tell him. If I had known, I would have had an answer for him when we sat by his bed, drunk. I don’t think he knew what to say either, so we sat at the table and drank. He told me I was a great man, and lucky too. I told him he was the best man I knew. But somehow we both knew we had lied. Or at least our good praise cancelled each other out. That night, I got a phone call. He had moved away in the night across the country. He told me to come visit, and I said that I would. Naturally, I never went out to visit him, he was simply too far and I didn’t care quite enough. But I still think about what I would say to him.

When I rov’d a young Highlander o’er the dark heath, And climb’d thy steep summit, oh Morven of snow! To gaze on the torrent that thunder’d beneath, Or the mist of the tempest that gather’d below; Untutor’d by science, a stranger to fear, And rude as the rocks, where my infancy grew, No feeling, save one, to my ***** was dear; Need I say, my sweet Mary, ’twas centred in you? Yet it could not be Love, for I knew not the name,— What passion can dwell in the heart of a child? But, still, I perceive an emotion the same As I felt, when a boy, on the crag-cover’d wild: One image, alone, on my ***** impress’d, I lov’d my bleak regions, nor panted for new; And few were my wants, for my wishes were bless’d, And pure were my thoughts, for my soul was with you. I arose with the dawn, with my dog as my guide, From mountain to mountain I bounded along; I breasted the billows of Dee’s rushing tide, And heard at a distance the Highlander’s song: At eve, on my heath-cover’d couch of repose. No dreams, save of Mary, were spread to my view; And warm to the skies my devotions arose, For the first of my prayers was a blessing on you. I left my bleak home, and my visions are gone; The mountains are vanish’d, my youth is no more; As the last of my race, I must wither alone, And delight but in days, I have witness’d before: Ah! splendour has rais’d, but embitter’d my lot; More dear were the scenes which my infancy knew: Though my hopes may have fail’d, yet they are not forgot, Though cold is my heart, still it lingers with you. When I see some dark hill point its crest to the sky, I think of the rocks that o’ershadow Colbleen; When I see the soft blue of a love-speaking eye, I think of those eyes that endear’d the rude scene; When, haply, some light-waving locks I behold, That faintly resemble my Mary’s in hue, I think on the long flowing ringlets of gold, The locks that were sacred to beauty, and you. Yet the day may arrive, when the mountains once more Shall rise to my sight, in their mantles of snow; But while these soar above me, unchang’d as before, Will Mary be there to receive me?—ah, no! Adieu, then, ye hills, where my childhood was bred! Thou sweet flowing Dee, to thy waters adieu! No home in the forest shall shelter my head,— Ah! Mary, what home could be mine, but with you?

I never thought I’d find myself running outside on the sidewalk Bearing to go faster just to be home. I never felt my heart beat so fast And tears overpower my beautiful face As I cried for everything to stop while Sprinting in school clothes and a backpack. I never shook so much. I could not even breathe as I pushed through the isle and jumped off the steps. I screamed “No!” at the top of my lungs When all the kids demanded I obey them Because I was Different. I ignored the boy who laughed and asked why I was getting off. I ran, I panted, and I found my mother in the house Where I arrived early. My own stop was two after the one I ran off the bus. I told her they wouldn’t let me have the backseat. They restrained me by holding my arms, pushing my hand off, And lashing their voices to the point I was shattered. She reported this to my father. They said I did the right thing. Impressed by how I removed but mostly how I ran. In my yard I would see birds fly in and out of the trees. How I wanted to be a Blue Jay and fly to wherever I could go. I may not be able to fly, But I could run, and wear the color blue. I can run away and grow stronger more than any Micromanaged child who was taught nothing but Self-absorption. I could run whenever I was in trouble and Nobody dared to catch me due to my fiery Speed. Today, I write this with an icepack under my left foot. I’m injured, but will be back to my usual Routine eventually. The nasty kids are where it all started. I told them not to cry to me when they received an “F” in gym. If they do, I’ll run away ;).

I always wanted a name like a color, But then I felt bad, Because what if the other colors got sad, because if my name, was to cause them pain, I'd cry, and wish to be wrapped, and panted, in a rainbows vein, And be know as, spectrum, Color Spectrum. I'll be an array, of entities, as light shines threw, I will be more then the common, and Physical Propensities, because besides light waves, the sea will go though me too, and the mass and length of both, Will not hold me down, because I am color spectrum, And with the rain and the sun, I am one, A prism. Creating the suns rain, into a bow of color across the sky, red, orange, yellow, green, fly, blue and indigo, will not just be colors, to color up our sky, and violet, sweet violet, will combine us, make us one, but we are bond, a band, bands of colors, pretty to the eye, we still hold so much more, invisible to us, but still with us, because like the bands, we are the same, with feelings and emotions, there, but unseen, until you look a little closer, because we are a spectrum, and that has more to do with our hearts, bodies, and minds, then the names, looks, and colors, we bare,

I was angry. ****** I ran from the beach. I held my towel and sweater. My glasses were foggy. I couldn't see anything. I pulled them off and clenched them in my fist. I flew over the bridge and tore through the woods. My flashlight beam was slow Wavering. I ran tripped jumped panted scraped screamed flew up the stairs. I was angry. ****** Why couldn't they leave me alone. Up the stairs. Rocks Sticks Bumps ******* sharp things Leaves. The lights of the house glowed up ahead. Bright. Too bright. Like my grandma. I ran to them. Around the house. Through the door. Bright greeted me. Are you going in the sauna? Why the **** do we HAVE a sauna!!!!! We're in the middle of nowhere We swim in a lake We drive an hour To get to the closest town And yet we have a SAUNA No. I'm not going in. I'm already steaming. Even though I'm steaming A *** boiling over She SMILES ******* SMILES Why are you SMILING? So you're just fine like that? Slam. Slam the door. Goodbye. No more. I'm crying. Hot tears over my cold body. My nose hurts. I cry and cry. But no one hears me. He's in the next room And he doesn't hear me. They're still at the beach. I hear them And they don't hear me. I sit on the floor. I ignore the wet spot I'm making on the stupid grey rug. I pull my wet towel to me. I haven't dried off yet. I don't. I don't care. I stand up. I stop crying and pull my towel over my head. It is dark. I stand there. And then I walk. Through the room Bumping into beds and walls. I am nothing. Nothingness itself. I see no one And no one sees me. I can't see. I can't see. I hear my name over and over. What is that? Nothing. What did you say? Nothing. What do you want? Nothing. Yeah right. What's up? Nothing. Sure. Nothing. The word one uses when we cannot speak. I stop being nothing and take off the towel. I am not nothing. I am Nikita. I am crying again. I hear them coming up the stairs outside. I gather my clothes and put on my glasses. Still foggy. I take them off. I leave the room. Are you heading to the sauna? No. I go to the bathroom. STOP SAYING MY NAME I DON'T WANT DESSERT I DON'T WANT CHOCOLATE CAKE I'm crying again.

He called me his little good girl: it was less of a compliment, more a command that if I did not follow every order, he would tell on us. I had to walk with his limp so he would not derail my secrets, make my boyfriend mad. It only worked because I was acting like a bad, bad girl with someone old enough to be my dad. I remembered he could put a gun down my throat if I misbehaved or wore a skirt too long or too short, too pink or too black or if I seemed too happy or too sad – good girls have no emotions, just let men take their breath away. I panted under my sheets and I came to the thought once, soon after, this man, he made me bleed.

Wandering words of wisdom curl eagerly around the smoke stack songs of southern savages. Whispered wordlessly through the generations my gut boils with ******* bravery. The sounds of ancient ruins those panted grunts of trance bound elders are what they have named me. I've plucked my eyes from their plush pillows. The lies they slept in kept them slow and useless. They will wander in the dark open with anticipation free of the blinding roads of gold you had set so slyly as traps for them.

To see the world through fairie lens, The scrying pool, the artist's pen, To live in such a wond'rous world Will feed the lover's soul, unfurled, Will free the heart to catch the moon Will start romantic hearts to swoon. So Percy, young and free at heart, Who from his love was torn apart, Walked the woods in shadowy gloom Proclaiming death of love, and doom, When stepped he into fairy ring And heard the satyrs ***** sing. He watched the dryads flow'ry dance. He saw the fairie happ'ly prance. And in the midst of this he met A vision out of Heaven sent In form of twinkling, thoughtful eyes And skin as clouds that grace the skies, Skin much softer than the wind, and smooth As stone that's by the water, grooved. By magic fire a dance began. By this spell, lost was the young man. With eyes the color of the sea, Began to court the fairy sweet, Did Percy, past his other love. By one touch from enchanted glove Worn on hand of Percy's goddess His heart did swoon and heave his chest. That night the pair was lost in song And Percy laughed and loved 'ere long. At light of dawn the blue eyed youth Received a kiss that spoke of truth From elven maid, enchanted. By the sun the fairie panted, Shrinking from the light of morning, And vanished fast, without warning. Percy, in the wake of magic Was abandoned. Feeling tragic He lay prostrate upon the hill. As days did pass he lay quite still And slowly, overcome by woe, He begged the Earth, upon him, grow And take his weight, his sky blue eyes And help his tortured soul to die. Upon the spot where once he lay, So aided by the sun and rain Did grow a pair of flowers, blue. The Earth had taken up the youth. When one year passed, on Eve of Saints They Fey returned, with colored paints. The girl who danced with Percy, young, When all the singing had begun Did find blue petals, growing strong And wove them in her hair, so long.

Percy, or the Lover in Fairie
To see the world through fairie lens, The scrying pool, the artist's pen, To live in such a wond'rous world Will feed the lover's soul, unfurled, Will free the heart to catch the moon Will start romantic hearts to swoon. So Percy, young and free at heart, Who from his love was torn apart, Walked the woods in shadowy gloom Proclaiming death of love, and doom, When stepped he into fairy ring And heard the satyrs ***** sing. He watched the dryads flow'ry dance. He saw the fairie happ'ly prance. And in the midst of this he met A vision out of Heaven sent In form of twinkling, thoughtful eyes And skin as clouds that grace the skies, Skin much softer than the wind, and smooth As stone that's by the water, grooved. By magic fire a dance began. By this spell, lost was the young man. With eyes the color of the sea, Began to court the fairy sweet, Did Percy, past his other love. By one touch from enchanted glove Worn on hand of Percy's goddess His heart did swoon and heave his chest. That night the pair was lost in song And Percy laughed and loved 'ere long. At light of dawn the blue eyed youth Received a kiss that spoke of truth From elven maid, enchanted. By the sun the fairie panted, Shrinking from the light of morning, And vanished fast, without warning. Percy, in the wake of magic Was abandoned. Feeling tragic He lay prostrate upon the hill. As days did pass he lay quite still And slowly, overcome by woe, He begged the Earth, upon him, grow And take his weight, his sky blue eyes And help his tortured soul to die. Upon the spot where once he lay, So aided by the sun and rain Did grow a pair of flowers, blue. The Earth had taken up the youth. When one year passed, on Eve of Saints They Fey returned, with colored paints. The girl who danced with Percy, young, When all the singing had begun Did find blue petals, growing strong And wove them in her hair, so long.

Her skin reeked of chlorine and yours of cigarettes She lay in the car, unconscious and unknowing and you panted and petted and groped and, sweating, you stole her sanity

He has no choice but to chase her. This hurricane of a girl, who carries a roiling storm of turbulent winds behind her glances, and breathes deeply of natural disaster. Men will fall for forces of chaos. Then pursue them despite emotional harm. All he desires is her and that has made him blind. He loves how the rain scents her skin. She smells like dark mahogany and loam. He loves her rounded gestures. The way they angle in swooshing arcs, cutting and emphasizing dialogue. He wants to kiss her, hold her, be with her, talk to her. But her crooked, crescent mouth sings only of destruction and implosion. There’s no time for love or affection. Her body is an empty vessel for primal lusts. As slurred, blurred words are panted against her ear. That’s how long she can stop. That’s how long she can stay. She’s caught in the swirl of her turmoil. And like a hurricane she tears through place and setting. Always in search of better things. She has no time to puzzle out love.

Submissie
Inhaling your breath against my lips gets me high. Love this potent should be illegal, it feels so bad... like someone sold me your heart in a little plastic bag from the pocket of their hoodie in the cover of night. I lit it on fire and breathed in every panted wisp of smoke pushed up from your burning core. I bet distant cities can see our flames on the horizon, and the citizens are rushing to church to kneel before God and pray to be spared from the glowing apocalypse crawling towards them. What a beautiful way to die... but the world has already ended to me, because nothing matters in this moment but you. I think I can hear their screams beneath yours, as the ****** of Armageddon firestorms falls from the angry heavens that generously matched our souls. Then silence... the beautiful silence that drapes the earth once everyone and everything is dead except for us, at least until the sun returns, and the alarm clock rings and resurrects the world from its hallucinated grave, and I head out to work hungover with love. lying together in the last of the darkness... I awake to the hiss of flames and plumes of candle-smoke

The lives of others
You made a mistake, One you swore you'd never make. Transformed into lies, Covered up by pride. You let her down, fool. Told her you'd keep your cool. Come out, come out, they chanted, It was an uphill battle, and you panted. You couldn't help it, suffocation set in Trapped in a box, one you conformed in. You're a liar, you monster. Now you went, and you lost her. Forever? Maybe. Don't think about it. Your hands shake at the thought of it. Get off your knees, brush em off, kid. "You got this!" they said, but they don't have a bid. This is the hardest time of your life, Losing one that's meant to be your wife. Meant to hold you hand. Meant to stand. Meant to kiss you. Meant to hold you. You shattered her heart, you monster. Now you lost her. You keep tellin' yourself you'll turn it around, but you, yourself, can't even be found. Mistakes, you made em, kid.

Mistakes
A mouse found a beautiful piece of plum cake, The richest and sweetest that mortal could make; Twas heavy with citron and fragrant with spice, and covered with sugar all sparkling as ice. ‘My Stars!” cried the mouse, while his eye beamed with glee, ‘Here’s a treasure I’ve found; what a feast it will be; But hark! there’a noise, ’tis my brothers at play; So I’ll hide with the cake, lest they wander this way. Not a bit shall they have, for I know I can eat, Every morsel myself, and I’ll have such a treat’ So off went and held the cake fast, While his hungry young brothers went scampering past. He nibbled and nibbled, and panted, but still, he kept gulping it down till he made himself ill; Yet he swallowed it all, and ’tis easy to guess, he was soon so unwell that he groaned with distress. His family heard him, and as he grew worse, They sent for the doctor, who made him rehearse How he’s eaten he cake to the very last crumb, Without giving his playmates and relatives some. ‘Ah me!’ cried the doctor, ‘advice is too late’ You must die before long, so prepare for your fate; if you had but divided the cake with your brothers, Twould have done you no harm, and been good for the others. ‘Had you shared it, the treat had been wholesome enough, But eaten by one, it was dangerous stuff; So prepare for the worst-’ and the word had scarce fled, When the doctor turned round and the patient was dead. No all little people the lesson may take, and Some large ones may learn from the mouse and the cake; Not to be over-selfish with what we may gain; Or the best of our pleasures may turn to pain.

A Poem written by Eliza Wood? A childhood favourite for me

beautiful days
Soft kisses            Against                    hesitant lips Turns quickly too               Hair pulling                     followed by 'i'm sorry' then-suddenly it was love              And I had no idea-how                          too escape 'it' but nude-painted, panted promises             Are useless during                         day lit seconds Do not leave me beggin' for more                  I could have destroyed you       instead, for you. I came - undone
