The skies lark, pristine and golden
Stirring to life those fortunately unbroken
Hopefulness breeds, like a fiendish youth
Rife with a hunger so savage and uncouth
Trending: Ease
Nestled beneath your heavy elation
Solitude spawns its heavenly sensation
Tracing your walls with sinful desperation
You’re body churns, full on jubilation

She strides with certainty boiling within
Brandish a solace, which knows no twin
How she braves the crude, and callously bold
As a luminous wander, carving gallantly through the cold

Our own we hold

Blood, Flesh and Bone
Every faulty curve
Every foul inch, thrives on in verse!
It is of my own blood
My own sun kissed flesh and bone
My pride and joy
My drive to press onward
"To the masses of nightly wanderers
Artisans bound to creation!
Cling tight to your masterful seed!
The best of your works
Hoist them high, and cry dedication!
Devotion, obsession, life, death!"
It is your entirety
A manifestation of yourself
Living breathing, glistening with pride
Long awaiting their legions of kin!
Reap the fruits
Conjured from the silent breeze
Out of sheer nothingness
Enwoven into excellence
he looks like a broken cup of tea again. cigarettes hang from his fingers. he's blown through three in a matter of minutes. i want to sit him down on the couch and peel back his skin until i can find all his broken bones. i want to stitch him back together. i want to make him okay.
he's never been the victim in our relationship. he's never been bruised and swollen and burnt out.
i'm nervous.
he walks back in and i'm a vulture.
i move toward him, ready to hug him. he pushes me away. angry. okay. hold onto that anger. hold onto that disgust. he doesn't have to feel the pain yet. at least he's feeling something.
'leave me alone.'
i flutter
One fine day, i'll hold my own
I will shine the clearer
High noon or low evening
The world will share everlasting peace
Forever cleansed of worry and strife
Until that day
I will not tremble nor waver
But stand firm, for the many I hold dear
Through battered limbs
Bloodletting and bruising
My pulsating cause shall beckon eternity
Until that day
I will struggle for miles
Flock to the needy for them to follow
Follow to lead
Their legion of kin
The multitudes of greatness
True builders of eternity

cigarettes and cheese.
strip us down of our most basic addictions
and feel the primal roar in our guts
as we lick our miserable wounds
saddened and lurched in a corner
staring lingeringly at each other
and this could be our demise,
he prowls with those eyes all aglitter with spite.
we are so much stronger than this,
than the smoke that clings to the contours of our bones
on cold winter nights blanked out with frosty stars,
than the delicious home cooked meals that mock
our family wishes hinting at the top of the tree.
we are going to triumph over the monsters
that gnaw and chew on our memories
and we are going to stay in love
because we have defeated
Tears of joy, stream down the face of paradise
Ravaging our mothers, with infinite divine bliss
A queen of all muse, she relished in this moment
Brought her most charitable gift
In the midst of weeping forefathers
Forever lost in their jubilation
A storm brewed in his youthful lungs
Bolts of lightening, illuminating his stoic heart
He awaits days of glory, the world set ablaze
Trembling at words of a docile sage
Bells rang with gratitude for loving matriarch
Echoing through the hills and low valleys of his mind
As light ascends for darkness
Drawing in the new day
Gardens of April, teaming with love
Swelling passions, to full e
Once fleeting ships, reunite anxious lovers
Their joyous squeals, forever float serene
Father showers kin with affection
Cast his rage across the blackened sea
A frigid hell storm, baptized him in blood
Shed all of his innocence, in the midst of the vengeful reaper
The faint gasps, of fallen comrades, stay trapped in his nightly visions
Lush melodies of spring, fell from his lips
Walls coveted, by this forgotten hymn of loyalty
Driven the wayward and confused, to bountiful plunder
These horrors of war, may melt away in the beating sun
The haunting patter of boots, stormed the walls of his fragile mind
Tore brides away, from the q
I straddle the peak of this roof.
Nightbright snow burns my unshoed feet
& they burn it back.
I shiver at the effort of this white-on-white battle to-the-death.
I quiver until the shingles scrape at my toes.
Stiffly these legs obey my orders & climb the bloody chimney.
The wind silences my pleas for mercy, yet I
unfold myself into a bird & then into a diver.
Cupping my hands I feverishly scratch at
peeling-paint clouds; these crumble and flake to the ground.
One heavensent gust collects under the swan feathers tied in my hair
& I ascend owl-eyed to the top of this night.
Crashing in through the scab I picked open, I land with a
Swollen pests, grovel in streets of gold
Wings a flutter at fallen treats
The wealthy and rotund, envy of men in bondage
Chains and whips, whistling night and day
Mighty dreams and robust aspirations
Prisoners to wither away in the rising heat
Never to blossom into the exotic range of colors
Gracing the world with her sublime wonders
Denied, are the assets vital to flourishing
The seekers, branded and carved by brutality
Heathen! Savage! Beast!
Shackled to the searing hot motor
Condemned by hypocritical justice
Before enlightenment, night reigns supreme
Conniving and treacherous
Leaving minds vulnerable to sin
A precious di
