A new day, a new one walks in,

No real significance given to your name,

no information needed,

I examined your countenance,

my eyes rolled over the hair on your arms,

I noticed your bone structure was larger

than what I am used to,

IMMORTALITY

 

Foreword

"What powers I once had, I lay them to dust now." 

 

Verse.

He stood - beneath falling clouds

And let them breathe over him.

 

One gasp - absorbed

Their life and prevalence.

 

Let fade - his memory

Of all hope and sense.

And as I’m sitting here wondering what the fuck I’m supposed to do I am left with a bitter taste in my mouth. The taste of failure.

And beaches don’t mean shit. And pain is pain no matter where you are, and it will always hurt no matter how fast you try to run in front of it.

don’t hear your music

come to me on Sunday mornings

soon after church, as the

sauce sit simmering on the stove,

when walking in the sun-

bright yellow kitchen,

still a child with stones

and matches in my pockets,

you would hug me

and the cold winter

would pass into a Spring

breeze coming through open

windows, tossing the curtains

so quickly you removed

yourself from me

Chasing romantic memories,

   I have flung myself across the Pacific,

Determined to grow a new me.

------------------------------------

Spiritually crippled,

   Seeking the light I once found,

I have cast away my safety.

External fame lit by internal flame burns eternal

Can you feel that raging raw red fire?

That sizzling as she seizes desire

That heat from her amber eyes

That match head red lipstick

That took me by surprise

That sauvignon breath

That drank in my life

That very first look

That of a woman inside

I live in a war zone

I have had my ideals beaten bloody

I have had my dreams held hostage

I have had my future executed

By powerful dictators ruling behind veils

Hellbent on disaster capitalism.

Sucking out the life breath 

Through under handed foreplay

And blatant sadistic fetish fixes

Of staggering rates.

I bought the lie and brought it home

Only to find there were missing pieces

And instructions in a foreign tongue

With no warranty 

Or return policy.

I see them most days

when they drop by the cafe

for breakfast

they're coming in

I'm walking out

 

the old man's wiry

cantankerous

the wife is a kinder sort

she's learned how to deal 

with the old man

 

they always come in an

ancient Dodge pick-up

she's behind the wheel

he's on the passenger side

two irish setters in the back

Melting mates we’ve become

So inspiring we succumb

Melt with me candle top

Hot pooling hot spot

Puddling water falling wax

Heat and flame

Leaves

Dead night sunlight sheds me off

Dank hugs without recoil

Torn between the knees of thrones

Soiled view of a famous Jew

Or to thrive on human juice unused
