"unsaids" poems
I'm so lonely
for someone I
can be alone with
a million tongue notes
flicked upon a rogue
scale of silence
echoing unsaids
across flesh parallax
seeing you seeing me
is enough, it's so much
I can barely handle it
and it all stays
in mouth
or drips
down the corners
where I lick

it's real easy to feel like
we've done it all
wrong
phenomenal fuckyes then
phantasmagoric fear ragers
perpetual pity *******
blood middle knuckle crush
regretful bets hedged
hunched frozen tongues
and pointy unsaids
but sometimes
with mind wide-eyed
and heart roots writhing
I've seen it
way differently
a vantage point
where pushpull face-plants
are winning lotto tickets
because maybe
we were kindling of yes
unable to keep it burning yet
and we would have fumbled it
far beyond repair
I'm fairly certain
our heartfelt invites
to instant cohabitation
would have ended
painfully
badly
traumas tripping
over hair triggers
in a 3-legged race
two smoking pistols
and four red feet
even Hello
seems too intense
to mouth
and from this
particular perspective
I can see how
every decision made in fear
led to whinging karmarang
tied with two strings
I daresay
one day we might
look back with a smile
that it went down this way
because the initial who
were not strong enough
to shoulder the immensity
nor surrendered enough
to float the fragility
of newborn carbon
gossamer whorl
in fact
I push all my chips
toward that
maybe there is
fortune in false starts
we make plans
but I bet The One
has better ones
so I'm pretty sure
we should sit down
and listen
for that breeze
to whisper

Explosions
*Fireworks at dawn
Fields of colour opening
Wildflowers bursting*

Perspectives
*Youth has horizons
Elders have reached a new sun
Beyond a mountain*

Bagged
*Shy lovers so coy
Faces, face off each other
Pursed lips waiting*

Unsaids
*Breaths of love in bed
Heft of lovers airy touch
Weight of whisperings*

Love Dimmed
*I have shuttered light
All that is left of my love
Photos in a box*

Somewhere between the words that we speak and the echoes of what remains unsaid, there is an opening waiting for some truth to be revealed.
Consider this.
In the morning, love is two particles waving in and out of reality, two particles beyond the conceptions of space and time. In the night, love tip-toes across the moon, and at some random point seeps into the dreams of those who sleep alone.
I was sleeping alone the night you passed away. I left many things echoing in the opening where the unsaids go to peacefully die. You know, the imaginary space and how it all dissolves somewhere between your perception and mine.
I went to sleep the night after you died, and you were waiting for me in a canyon covered with gold. The water, fresh and crisp, and we could not stop jumping from the top of the waterfall to the clear green pool below.
There were no words between us, no conceptions of space or time. I remember the feeling of the sparkling paint and foreign images engraved into the gold stone walls, how we leaped from part of the canyon to the next.
I remember this, the last collision of your perception and mine, an opening in an imaginary canyon where the unsaids go because they don't want to die.
I think this means you forgive me, even though I haven't yet committed the crime.
I'm still considering this.
Somewhere between the things we believe are real and the things that do actually exist, there is an opening, a canyon, and a beautiful waterfall.
I think you still visit there from time to time, and I would like to go once more, too.
The only problem is, every time I try to speak, the truth forgets, the opening is dissolved.

riding warm wind
inside-out outside-in
mouth christenings
lost and found
inventory on skin
remembering who
forgetting where
I am
your eyes unbind
and tie
penetrating unsaids
