Poetry
Love Poem written with Carson Daniel
Underneath the windswept sky,
A falcon descends upon white plateau.
He sleeps restlessly as waves crash endlessly
Sounding like you.
Ecstacy
Gold Tones trace the skin,
Bone town, Elysium tusk,
My muse is made
of Ecstasy.
We will float on
Her fingertips, on
Winds unfurled by hands in bloom.
Her lace webs are weaved
Immaculately, she
Will eat ten arms
With no dribble
On her bib.
Widow Queen.
I will obey you for
An eternity, hear your
Sighs in crashing waves.
Your voice will always
Be unchanging;
Your face will
Live there in
Beyond.
My muse is made
of Ecstacy.
Recount
Reincarnated moments of laughter,
Samantha's scrunched up nose,
She says the stars in the night sky
Are just tomatoes on the vine,
Ready for us to pick.
Ask Jeremy about his sister, ask him
If he's ever thought about losing her;
Do you think he knows what loss tastes like?
He told me they've never cooked a meal
Together.
Running lamp regret,
So he does not know what loss is,
But he tells me about wasted love;
I told him that their shadows on the wall
Move the same way.
He took me off guard, he asked me
"What are you most ashamed of?"
I told him how wrong it feels to define
Another's freedom, I told him that I regret
I've never loved anyone enough to try.
I'm on the cusp of something,
Something within grasp;
Iris says that I'm lucky, but she knows
What I'm most afraid of.
