Time (II)

Every time I break I 

Put myself back together

All the different arrangements of me

Have frayed edges and glue marks

Without a map or a guide 

I put myself back together

Smaller, sturdier, and

Missing no pieces

[brunettecosette]

Lunar Ode

Moon,

Let me come to him now through the town

Pull me, a simple storm, out of my gown

And into a waiting boat to sail the streets

Moon,

Let me obliterate the slumber as I pass

My tempest knows bounds not as,

The peace is broken, but we are awoken

Moon,

Let my waves crash upon his rocky shore

Each stronger than the one before

Only a sweet whisper can quell them

Moon,

Let the ocean lap at the caves

While lovers splash in the waves

And sing to the stars together

Moon,

Let us wash up on the quiet beach

As we say our farewells to us each

And rest in a tide pool out of reach

Wonder is a beast of the heart

Hope is the string that tears it apart

Tantamount To A Gamble (And I Don’t)

Presuppose

Your prose has made its mark

So it goes bullshitting in the dark

Ideas molder waiting for their turn

Torches don’t illume they only burn

Shallow charm can lead to deeper pools

If you play the cards right maybe you’ll

Lead the green out of the grey

See the night into the day

I’ll take your hand

You hold the cards

Strangers at a bar

You Found Me

After the dust had cleared

After my mind solidified

Into oatmeal that I’ll make us daily

And the brisk transgressions pay no mind to the want for another world for us

I want you simply

Like this

Popsicles melt in your mouth

Fourth of July fireworks kiss me naked

Lonetime Longtime no time like the now

Time to take it she said

Let’s make it

They went
