Dear soulmate No we haven't met At least not yet For all I know you could be a princess, with a golden tiara and attendants Or the daughter of a peasant, uncouth and ill-bred in the sight others, but to me, nothing short of pleasant No we haven't met At least not yet Dear soulmate Last night I dreamt of you again, a thousand dragons for you I had slain On my heart you placed your hand, beaming with joy, oh my fair lady was I glad! Oh my fair lady was I glad!, when to the beating of our hearts all night we danced Fell on our backs and at the stars we gazed, Oh! their resemblance to your eyes left me amazed No, we haven't met At least not yet Dear soulmate Beautiful becomes meaningless for it cannot describe you Perfect ceases to exist for it fails to define you The universe must have been the one that birthed you Or an angel from heaven must have sent you From porcelain clay God must have made you With his own breathe, life, must have gave you In my dreams I stare in your eyes In your eyes I witness the sun rise As the sun sets I picture you walking down the aisle Oh daughter of a goddess, in your soul I would love to set sail Oh daughter of a goddess, without fail, by your side i would love to grow old and frail No, we haven't met At least not yet Dear soulmate No, we haven't met At least not yet

A few things for themselves, Convolvulus and coral, Buzzards and live-moss, Tiestas from the keys, A few things for themselves, Florida, venereal soil, Disclose to the lover. The dreadful sundry of this world, The Cuban, Polodowsky, The Mexican women, The ***** undertaker Killing the time between corpses Fishing for crayfish... ****** of boorish births, Swiftly in the nights, In the porches of Key West, Behind the bougainvilleas, After the guitar is asleep, Lasciviously as the wind, You come tormenting, Insatiable, When you might sit, A scholar of darkness, Sequestered over the sea, Wearing a clear tiara Of red and blue and red, Sparkling, solitary, still, In the high sea-shadow. Donna, donna, dark, Stooping in indigo gown And cloudy constellations, Conceal yourself or disclose Fewest things to the lover-- A hand that bears a thick-leaved fruit, A pungent bloom against your shade.

O Florida, Venereal Soil
Messy hair, Baggy clothes. My appearance may be bizarre, But my thinking glows. Smudged mascara, Faded lipstick. Trying to keep up my tiara, But I’m a little pessimistic. Five-inch heels, Bright red dress. My attitude is my appeal, My knowledge is what’ll get you possessed. Not saying that I’m perfect, Not saying that I’m the best. But just be careful, My success has gotten you oppressed.

My possession
Loons in the vineyard –  sound the alarm ! Satan is milking his metaphors. Such silly music portends no harm; call home the cows and open your doors. Brian Hugh Warner, a paleface freak after finding his mom’s mascara darker enlightenment did seek and crowned himself with Baal’s tiara. Scary drag-queen, scandalous, vain Marilyn – the creepy thespian rolled that fish-eye and snorted ******* like Crowley…  how pedestrian. Flashing his glowing cataract, he gave the mommies quite a fright. Censorship launched; no badder act did sail (or assail) our sinking night. Gothic dim-wits purchased CD’s bought the goods, pierced parts, wore black. (Cause for certain parents’ unease: MTV’s Antichrist on the attack). Son of Man – or rather, Manson Milked to the max his demonic cow; playing Satan’s naughty grandson showing the flustered milk-maids how. Urban legend surrounds this fowl (those ribs removed – like Adam’s sin!) Is he a misunderstood night owl – or a has-been loon in a loony bin? Rock-stars age (well, most) like a cheap wine. or else in the way once-ripened grapes withering, sun-struck, off the vine transform, with age, into wizened shapes. No – I am wrong. They age like prunes; plums thus pass into their glory. Even Luciferian loons find lakes of fire at end of story.

Marilyn WHO ?
When she became the prom queen, She was the prettiest thing they’d ever seen. Soft gold curls spill over her back, Bright green eyes, no sign of decay inside. A spotlight shines down enhancing her cream-colored gown. She beams as she accepts the crown. She kneels down and throws up blood. Her head comes up in a white marble tiled bathroom, Starting to stench. Staring deep into the reflection in her mother’s mirror, Slowly withering away. Pills spill around the room Sitting by the window She stares into the sun. Waiting for a crimson bouquet, And a plastic tiara She powders her face, Peachy pink cheeks on pale white skin. She colors her lips and paints on a smile Slips on a dress that flows to the floor. They call out her name, Lost in a daze she walks out on stage, Stands all alone. And when they crowned me the prom queen I was the ugliest girl I’d ever seen. -Inside on the Other side

Suburban Teenage Dreams (Am I Pretty?)
I don’t remember exactly when Budberg died, it was either two years ago or three. The same with Chen. Whether last year or the one before. Soon after our arrival, Budberg, gently pensive, Said that in the beginning it is hard to get accustomed, For here there is no spring or summer, no winter or fall. “I kept dreaming of snow and birch forests. Where so little changes you hardly notice how time goes by. This is, you will see, a magic mountain.” Budberg: a familiar name in my childhood. They were prominent in our region, This Russian family, descendants of German Balts. I read none of his works, too specialized. And Chen, I have heard, was an exquisite poet, Which I must take on faith, for he wrote in Chinese. Sultry Octobers, cool Julys, trees blossom in February. Here the nuptial flight of hummingbirds does not forecast spring. Only the faithful maple sheds its leaves every year. For no reason, its ancestors simply learned it that way. I sensed Budberg was right and I rebelled. So I won’t have power, won’t save the world? Fame will pass me by, no tiara, no crown? Did I then train myself, myself the Unique, To compose stanzas for gulls and sea haze, To listen to the foghorns blaring down below? Until it passed. What passed? Life. Now I am not ashamed of my defeat. One murky island with its barking seals Or a parched desert is enough To make us say: yes, oui, si. 'Even asleep we partake in the becoming of the world.” Endurance comes only from enduring. With a flick of the wrist I fashioned an invisible rope, And climbed it and it held me. What a procession! Quelles délices! What caps and hooded gowns! Most respected Professor Budberg, Most distinguished Professor Chen, Wrong Honorable Professor Milosz Who wrote poems in some unheard-of tongue. Who will count them anyway. And here sunlight. So that the flames of their tall candles fade. And how many generations of hummingbirds keep them company As they walk on. Across the magic mountain. And the fog from the ocean is cool, for once again it is July.

✿⊰✲⊱✿ "She's finally here!" Sue claps as we all rise from our seats and walk to the Ballroom. There they are, atop the marble steps! Queen Donna and Dean of proud Vesian, both dressed in bright red. The couple faces each other with loving smiles as the cacophony of cheers and claps echoes through the great Luciuscemi Palace. ✿⊰✲⊱✿ From afar, I study Donna's beautiful gown; the shade of wine, made of velvet, her sleeves long and puffed. Her bodice embrodiery is extraordinary; patterned with red Rose of Vesian, but since her marriage, she added a white one. The embrodiery comes alive under the light of chandelier; glittering with intricately cut rubies and agates and sunstones for Donna's red roses, emeralds and peridots for the coiling stems and thorns, quartz and white opals and moonstones for the white roses. ✿⊰✲⊱✿ Her hair in a curly updo, ringlets framing her wise and kind face with a simple white diamond tiara resting upon her head; a simple rose chain and earrings to complete her look. In contrast, King Dean wears a deep crimson coat of red and white roses brocade that falls past his knees and above his ankles; slits on the sides  and on the back as well, I imagine. I can see the black lining underneath that fine coat.

No Tiara For Me
Imaging you when you were a school girl Mini- sarong, small white shirt A bag jam-packed with books hanging on your shoulder Tiara in head, and two queues like two small dark snake And those long eye petals highlighted with collyrium Your two sapphires fluctuating in deep Blue Ocean Impish humming birds were humming with their assiduous tongue, to get your attention. Let the Almighty curse their tongue was your supplication Walking in two fickleness legs, licking an Ice- cream Bewilderingly, you became my “A Midsummer night’s dream”. Each second I encounter you in my Ruya For years you are my Ruya.

Once upon a time In a land close to here There lived the most beautiful princess in all the land She ruled the kingdom with a crystal tiara On top of her head It was the day that her tiara shattered That she lost all hope to go on She took the broken pieces And tore away and her beautiful, pale skin Staining herself with crimson No matter how hard she tried She couldn't fix her ruined crown She couldn't put the pieces or her shattered kingdom Back in place Once upon a time There was a prince Who was the most mighty and the most kind Prince in all the land He heard of the princess' troubles And rode in On his metaphorical white horse And carefully picked up the pieces Of her shattered crown and broken kingdom He put them back together In the most careful manner And placed the crown back upon her head Saving her from what she had done But no matter how carefully the prince placed the tiara It always hung Just a little bit crooked

The Prince and the Princess
How am I supposed to react When inside my own body I feel so trapped I'm expected to be what I present But that doesn't reflect me And this person you see, I've began to resent Her pronouns don't feel like mine And they haven't for a while But changing them has helped over time Sometimes it feels okay Others I can't take it Because how I feel changes day to day The girl you see who wears the skirts Who wears makeup to be confident Isn't a girl at all, and feels like dirt When you call me beautiful I don't know how to feel It feels so unusual My body doesn't feel like mine It belongs to a woman If it didn't maybe I'd feel fine My clothes don't reflect me Neither does my makeup This isn't who I want to be I'm scared I'll never look neutral Maybe you'll always see a girl It just feels so brutal The person you raised Isn't who I grew into I'm a new person today I've never came out But it's because I'm still so unsure And if I told you you'd feel doubt You raised a girl Not someone doesn't feel right A child who'd grow to wear dresses and pearls I was always your princess Never your prince or neither But I've never felt secure in a dress I'll never feel feminine Not how you perceive it But how I feel it is relevant The tiara never fit my head quite right And the long hair felt wrong I wish I could change overnight One day you'll know I'll explain it all to you But until then, I'll continue to grow

Emerald Cat
Must be from France , western European . Dedicated equestrian , painter and poet . Aristocratic by blood , proper family . Well educated in all the facets of life . Regal as the diamond jewels of the tiara worn like a crown . Long black hair waterfalls over her shoulders . Rose red lips that beg to be kissed . Perfectly structured cheeks And the round innocent eyes Of an angel seeking wings to fly . And if the eyes are the windows to the soul let my ship sail on in Seeking safe harbor within Sneha's eyes .

Sneha's Eyes
Most people grow gardens with flowers and peas. But I am not most people. My garden is rather unique. Come quickly outside if you dare take a peek. Follow me out the door but don't be too hasty I will return you here looking awfully pasty. Into the woods we go with a feeling of unease remind yourself you may turn 'round if you please. You wear an expression of bravery plastered to  your face I'll warn you that is entirely out of place. My garden lies far, far away The entrance: this long narrow path Upon return I suggest a nice lukewarm bath. We march on silently Straight to my clearing Where all that dwells is hardly endearing. We arrive at gates I push them wide open and glance at your face, the expression most potent. You stare out at my garden Your weary eyes cautious Searching for normality with obvious malice. There is nothing of that sort to be found here. So sorry to disappoint you, my dear. From the unicorn pasture to the golden archer near the tentacle bed and the swooping vulture Round the corner lives my large pet dino being lead by a petite albino by the pond grows my crop of egg head while nearby lies a heard of enormous sized rhino Your gaze falls on my pink sparkly pegasus being rode by a tiara topped princess on a field of grass that is blood-red bordering a lake worthy of the great greek god Isis. As I watch your face change with shock and a pinch of delight I see you won't put up a fight You'll help me grow and raise my unparalleled garden You might even defend it and be my trusty warden. All that matters is that my garden is safe. And to be honest, I couldn't be happier.

Pretty white girl with that ghetto ***** Pop that *** and drop that *** And grab your self-esteem off the filthy floor Those steel bars of indecision Once made this caged bird sing Despite her tattered, weakened wings Those rainbow feathers will lose that shine Small town girl with a dream of...dreaming Lose your hollow, bitter past It left you many moons ago You're a superstar my ghetto girl So glimmer and shine and smile with sincerity The world doesn't need to love you If you just love yourself... I've seen you shrinking day after day But this fading just needs to stop Mirrors are one-dimensional But the world has that extraordinary depth Like you Sabrina Your tiara has been tarnished And it's long after midnight o'clock But you can always be the belle of the ball It's your party if you want it to be So stop crying and enjoy it

This is the closest thing to honesty. Every quote you’ve ever heard about treating your woman like a queen is right. But it's not true. A queen. they say. Treat her like a QUEEN. But what is a QUEEN? You, who have never bowed your head to kiss the earth, who have never sworn fealty, who've never beaten your brow against the rage of a world - how would you understand a QUEEN. We have this image of spoiled royalty a pretty princess dress a tiara a girl in a high tower or a woman, on a throne, cold and dismissive. But that's not right a QUEEN is DUTY to the people to the land to a kingdom. A QUEEN is a country. A QUEEN is only ever A QUEEN. You have a choice. Blessed are you, man. You have a choice. Be a peasant a blacksmith a merchant be anything in the world. But treat your woman like A QUEEN. So be a knight.   Not a knight in shining armor She doesn't need to be saved. She's A QUEEN She walks with crushed empires in her shoes She rises. Maybe blood drips from her sword Maybe it’s a slaughter But she builds the empire.   My head is my throne My lip is my kingdom My eyes are my army My breath is my law My hands are my sword My heart is my crown. I am a country at war an empire in birth a court on fire. I am a warning and a reminder There’s a reason why, exactly, the QUEEN is the deadliest player on the board.

She Walks in Beauty Like the Knight
I jumped from couch to couch, avoiding the floor that was lava. The balloon soared and floated in the air, and it could not touch the ground. Circus animal cookies and chocolate milk were there everyday. When I was small, the world was big and magical. My role models were Barney and Babar, Kermit and Elmo. I wore pink leotards and frilly tutus and stretchy slippers and shiny, black tap shoes. I’d look up at the sky to see that fluffy white clouds were bunnies, hippos and butterflies. When I was small, nothing was impossible. Parks were kingdoms and the jungle-gym was the castle. My glittery costume gown and my plastic tiara meant I was a real princess, Peter Pan would come take me away, to live in Neverland. When I was small, I was immortal.

When I was small
*Wanton moonlight, filtered through a fine white net of cirrocumulous clouds, so delighted by their caresses splashing noiselessly in to the blue pool, wears an alluring tiara, a crust created by fine foam, does a squiggly dance in the heart shaped pond, where waves make beams swing around non stop. The silver white lilies, one by one touched by this magic, comes alive, open their eyes drink from the fountain of moonlight and join the dance. The love pair, in their nocturnal love games are lubricious to the core having lost their hearts to both the ethereal beauty and the arrows of cupid*

Frolic in a moonlit lily pond
Evening colours come crooning to me in the swallows flying by: saucers in the sky, as I wait for the bus that will go and halt on the wall in my living room. The evening is somewhat dull now, let me hurl a few stars at the horizon: I have a dozen in my purse. All of them gifted by you, collectibles, kissables. My tiara princess, the hair-band is your secret wand. Ah, my leg, it's stuck in Grosvenor Road. So I hurtle back. and loop forward. Folding memories neatly into my back-pocket. There's a Divergence Theorem gone missing here, volumes are not going sheet-smart. I want my nj's. I could drown in those dimples.
