I lay awake — your flame my only triumph.
Beside you, the kingdom beyond the grave is nothing,
to the embracing desert.

the earth veiled.
Warriors of the drunkenness . . . more

If you offer your soul i will take it and make a deal with some god.
If some god you offer, i will kneel before and pray.
If some prayer you give, then let it be sweet and bring me absolution.
If absolution . . . more

One day and your whole life changes.
One day and that’s it.
Some snap judgment this or that thing.
You’re so sure you are in love; my lover, you say.
Secrets whispered through the wires, codified, . . . more

i love you
it scares you half to death
and makes you want to peel your skin off
i want to barge into you
a silent dock
while the ocean laps itself

OUR FINAL BREATHS TWIN SPEARS
The eyes come unfearing, as bold as desert sun
But held in the soft shading of eyelids and lashes
Lips are shown as sunbeams, parting the clouds, my lips . . . more

You gave me hope.
You showed me a way out.
You made me feel love,
you shattered all my doubts.
I wanted to return the favor,
I wanted to be your one.
Then one . . . more

Support me
Fight for me
Protect my precious soul.
Cherish me
Run to me

Let your love fill my every hole.
Look me in the eyes
Know me

You tell me you are stuck
How that quicksand pulls and sucks your fine bird-bone ankles.
Rage against the dying of the ...
the ground contrives to swallow you more.
That seamless cast . . . more

How fast you spin that silk web
cocooning fast your solitude -

Such things I would do ~
overcome this shyness in a moment
To show my true trust
there is nothing I would not be
to keep this love, I dip, I dive
a line, straight to you, strong vector.
Do you find your . . . more

It is a Morse Code dash.
A ribbon, pale-grey line,
simple and flat, screaming yet alarmingly soundless.
These vacant hollow hours ~
Empty of your laugh, your voice, your breath;
still, I keep my ear primed; . . . more

Your freckled expanse rose up in tones
Rising like tiny rebel roses blooming . . . more

It is just a question of time before...
our cadence will meet as we walk fall into sync,
to pentameter, iambic (of course), before we
share the same scented tea from same pot (same kind)
before we . . . more

God, I am so tired of writing you, of wanting you.
It is boring even me.
I am weary of the way you stitch in and out of my dreams,
wending your way down the chalked alleys of Israel, always that step . . . more

Things felt when we walked up the hill sides-hands bumping
I caught the sublime scent of you for . . . more
