Housewife

I know where you've been
In our home, your path
Cluttered tiny piles, thrown
My clothes deposited
Where our passion lay

Your smell permeates the pillows
The air, the couch
Even the stone floor as I scrub
The salt off your skin

Juices and oils in the oven
Our dinner's cooking in it
That's where you'll be
Peeking in the tiny window

Into my world beyond fronts
Into my soul behind walls

Haiku

An Autumn Fool, I
Shame On Me For Trusting You
Silly Little Girl.

Lone Reed

Strong as I am
My heels grab at the grass
My lackluster stride taking me
To "Eternity"
Where we began
I am searching for grace
I have been here before
I allow the wind to toss my curls
I need the sand to scrape my skin
You
You are here
While I, the lone reed
Weathered upright
You
The moss covered rock
Thrown about in the sea
To reach your final destiny
We found each other here
Both beaten, though beautifully
Attempting to hold one another
Still, from the onslaught
You
You have changed
And I remain the lone reed.
Our love, gone dry
The water, she comforts me

I Named Our Love For You

I Named Our Love For You
Your presence envelops me
Like the raw sea air
The salt and the sand cleansing
Debriding my fragile heart
Under the layers of protection
You give to me, my love
I find a new beating
Your fresh baby skin mingled
With my used sallowness
I named our love for you
Here in this place, where
We fell in love.Yes, my darling - you were
More than just a dream

My Marina Sola.

The Empress

Uninhibited
Yet locked away
In my throat
This feeling
In my heart
Make me stay
Clocks burning up
We're apart
So soon, however
After you start
Holding me tighter
Safe in your arms
Sweet undulation
So very close
Beating to be let out
Say it
You'll never cry
Again, here

Roadkill Feathers

I can stand, yet ever so slowly
My eyes crushed shut, its hard to see
You say I look like an angel.
I think.
Who's lost her will to be.

The blood sputters out of my mouth
Leaving a bitter burning inside
I scream, there is no sound
My ears hear nothing, its so intense
Pain too angry to subside

Once before, I could fly - you say.
I cut my feathers
I trim my seams
I look to the sky

My eyes reflect glass.
The transparency left
After it took myself away
From me.

Sonnet of Self Depreciation

Oh, painful wretching, let me lay
Beneath my sheets to see another day
I wish to not make choices so soon
Can't you let me answer at the noon

Oh, beating joy, let me stay
Within your fold, please, another day
I wish you'd come at interval
My passe'd year to which, thus null

Oh twisted pleat, unravel your grasp!
You make me ill, with any thought
I shall not make my choices fast!
Make this one decision for me.

He Who Is Like God

the flakes gently fall onto my nose
and wet my lips with rosy cold glow
I can see it, a flurry, a whirl
I twirl in the frosty air
over the blanket of white and into the park
all around
the trees are dancing in an angelic show
higher and higher the branches go
rising to show the stars and
mother sky their beautiful gift
of november's glistening snow
and they place you in my arms
my dewy chyrsanthemum boy
I've been drawn back into reality
Your innocent eyes so coy

The Grand Line

There's a line in the ground,
Drawn in the sand
Is this the love I've found,
Well, aren't you grand
I'll skitter on the borderline
Smiling and knowing it's just fine
You can lead all you want,
but who's gonna follow?
Who'd think you'd stoop so low
Looking at this situation, I'm pretty slow
They say never stoop to their level,
I'll laugh at that any day,
Before this day
I could've been in your bed
I could've said what needed to be said
I could've drank myself to death
Instead.
There's a line in the ground
Drawn in the sand
This is the love I've found
Baby, you ain't that grand

Butch

You, standing in full surround stereotype
Your hate hidden by your ardor of
Superiority, which I love too.
Just not the way you do.
The way you're supposed to.
Apparently.

Bleed Me

How does it feel to know,
That now you've lost control
Your words bit into my flesh
Meant to brand me,
bleed me,
kill my spirit
How does it feel to know,
That now I've erased your name
From time and space within
Fortifying
my heart,my ego,my soul
Are you reveling in the thought
You've destroyed everything
I'd hate to break it to
You
Every sweet memory
Every passionate kiss
Every thrust of your cock
into my trusting body
It's gone.
