listen and look,
honey,
dear,
sweetie,
baby,
won't you shut the hell up,
you're driving me crazy.
I'd survive if you'd save me
but

love hasn't saved anyone I've ever met.
maybe someone who wants to know what to expect
like
home before dark and promises never kept,
and secrets in the park with naked words

frozen
on the lips of an adulterous misstep.

this is useless to those who crave the subtle bliss,
who enumerate ridges of skin dedicated with a kiss
and
catalog nerve endings that shiver and resist . and . just . (quiver to exist)
so promises never need be made,
so we can fall apart and it won't matter, none of this

we never needed a place in a poem or a dictionary,
just a dial tone or a few letters to arrange
to call home and portray the strange
and… try… to find a word…
that rhymes with… dictionary

never trying to deny
our eyes cannot lie,
they will fade from glory.
like the dead,
like you and I

like we needed to fake these scrawling notes
that claw for understanding of mistakes we once wrote,
inky sketches that wax polemical over a misquote
and crying starry eyes over favorite chemicals,
the elements we conjure with, so verbose and so broke,
over coffee and cigarettes and mostly ***** jokes
no emotionally ecstatic experience compares
   to the seminal instance
   whence spermatozoa
   (from profuse *******) beget

   to procreate despite the steep odds

THE TASTE OF SYNONYM*


The odor of stale beer danced
with the steel blue smoke,
while Ska beats filled the air
with electricity.

As the room filled,
a thousand words spoke
all at once, loudly,
making it seem like a small riot.
Amidst the noise of confusion
and polemical anticipation,
I saw you stare.

You came at me with tight jeans,
a feminine sway,
and a slightly ruby smile.

You came at me
like an afternoon thunder storm
with lips tasting of cinnamon- synonyms
and dark brown eyes.

But it was in the symmetry of nuance
and the way you nestled easily
within the folds of my arms;
the way faded jeans and
oft washed flannel shirt
felt like home.

It was in the symmetry of morning delights,
of your creamy antonyms
melting on my tongue, that inspired
as I  explored your perfumed valleys,
roamed your mountain tips.

And I went to you in simile,
with a smile that said:
I walk no longer in shadow,
but in the moonlight of your eyes.

I went to you
with Neruda on my lips
and Enigma as my guide,
singing the Blues in Haiku tones,
painted as inquisitive whys.

I came at you
with poetry in my heart
and your synonymous taste on my lips.

I came at you
like gentle summer sips
of sonnet-flavored rain.

You came at me in synonyms;
and I replied  with cinnamon and rhyme:
come, speak to me of time,
art,
and the rhythm of the night sky.
