My Thought Is

My thought is that my thoughts are scrambled.

I can still feel this heart, all the chain locks are shambled.

No stopping from getting this far from the blocks where

we gambled with death, without a handle.

Man down; he played the scandal. 

Plain pants and matching sandals. Plane lands

and the pain cancels, plains grazing. 

She said something different but I meant the same thing.

Lip piercing kiss stain painting oscillating.

I kept her in the drafts and pencil shavings.

autumnzipper mentioned you in a post

@kakaphoe I mean the definition of a femme fatale is a woman who has brought disaster on the man she was involved in.

Cleopatra and Lady Godiva don’t fit that definition.

Feet On The Ground

Feet on the ground,

I write when it sits,

You can say this and that

but I will fight where it fits.

As the novel starts there isn’t forfeit,

the thoughts ebb and flow quick

both revolving in and out of orbit.

Roses bleeding feelings until they pour thick.

Taking licks in hopes I can absorb it.

The elixir comes with a slow kick.

People talk in circles like vultures; morbid,

don’t get addicted to it or you’ll be more sick.

You’ll be a victim to pain if you only store it.

Sing orphic dreams like metamorphic.

Textbook Seasonal Writer

Textbook seasonal writer;

take the floor.

The world’s your oyster

in the land of yore.

What are you waiting and standing for?

Thinking in a different state

just to handle more.

Write drunk, edit sober;

is that what’s been planned in store?

I can’t wait for this chapter to be over.

Leave me, love me: then why am I sore?

Letters, days long have effects years longer.

You think writing is something dying out

but I do it to become stronger.

The Joy Ephemeral

The joy ephemeral is better than the misery eternal.

I’m feeling several

ways like flowers thrown in the infernal.

Life in general-

oh baby somewhere, I wrote it in my journal.

save me, medical;

I’m bursting at the seams internal.

Hit the next level and level,

no barriers - not even verbal.

It was made last night, I went through the portal

back in time

so that you could love me until we grew immortal.

When Permitted

When permitted, I’ll answer via loving myself.

No question is too hard when it comes to survival.

The primary objective is to prioritize me.

I don’t expect raindrops to understand.

When permitted; time will slow down,

I’ve prepared flash cards; the answer is me.

No questions, the storm approaches -

grab your gear and we’re heading out to sea.

ABC Haiku

A.

Taking pictures of

an empty sky to fill in

the blanks later.

B.

Everyone is

looking for poems in a

pile of leaves.

C.

I use the leaves to

fill up my sky -

so that we can live forever.

Save Me / We’re History

Save me from saving you from fantasy,

baby a dream only takes so much vanity.

Daisies, debris scattered from the scenery.

Hazy to a degree from scorching the greenery.

Crazy how much one can really mean to me.

Phase me - the way we always come to disagree.

Maybe you think my thoughts are a mystery.

You’ll never fucking know because we’re history.
