THE SHIPWRECK TO MARS

 

Altair I see this last grave like heart

Struck in ambers of the cooling flesh

of mine you held against your irregular

body You were mine for sometime

 

There’s always been a line keeping us

together like an isthmus Yet hope is

like a clue always changing And we open

our crippled hearts in the cemented and dark

dream

 

You are beautiful even in fatigue I pick flowers

Carried to your lithe violet red eyes now from

tears I scattered among the star tendon sky

 

Light lurks into the world like a firefly wailling

down the foamy joy washed into the sea I

no longer dream as a snake ate all what’s real

You were Adam and I was Eve between all greed

 

Or some part of you and me

That seems like such a long

time ago

 

Now

 

I can offer nothing but the deep kisses and the touch

of a warm hot flame to your body That turns cold when

you no longer know what you feel is real Glints in the

milk red skin I flicked in a soft pain in deceit for the heat

escapes And when have I slept along the shore all my

dreams got carried away What could await me but a late

bait of soaked bright color Death was choosing them

Not us my love If you could open your eyes and wake

up my love My love, the lonely places where we will

not find lonely again

 

Enter a light

Take my hand

If you ever

believed in me

 

Buried by the sun every day A memory of loss in your

heart I felt something so strange was arisen and it lifted

in the thin crisp air between the moment of happiness

and sadness A birth of there was no distance in this

moment A hot ripe peach like kiss I blush I mute in love

I cannot breath and it dissolves me I no longer crave for

you but for my peace this tension abides the emotions

green and red, feverous and envious Clench the shadows

if you could I run with them and you no longer could

 

For how have we ever loved My marbled eyes ravage under

the water for you cannot touch them now Only my mother

knows how to save her drowned daughter I cry for my selfish

ways Immure me for you will always do so Forbid the incarcerate

loathing singular human imprisoned within beastly volatile times

 

The illusion of a girl you’ve loved is entirely a dream

Made of nothing but the ravage glass like mind ..fragile

Amongst the worlds bitter structure of beauty and slender

pain Flexible honey sweetness almost sick to show him

each night he can drown against the dream of her lips

Worn out kiss and to the triangle of safety he can no longer

enter as he has parted from his magic and red red red

A flood of blood in my brain dilute into my heart crashing

the waves you obey and I tolerate your shape

 

A willowy body tangled in limbs of another to another

I never wanted another, you offered me the world To

the world with victory in your eyes and no longer did

I hold effortless grace in my limbs as you say that I

do Empowering the hollow like trance is a state of

defenseless aim I am not from the Venusian sky you

think of so beautifully but a fallen star from Mars

 

Grace like silkened beauty woven in my insides

Of a corpse like body subjected to death the death

of gravity Yet divinity is in the nothing I do seek

time to time to survive a cold fire to be alive

Christian martyrs poisonous eyes hung in the

air to contemplate the diminishing prestige of

crumbled history Death enters like a shipwreck

and piles upon on one the hands and skin

 

Loathing and fever fear

Shutter blind your love

Is it a persuasion I have

never cookie crumbled to

measure the crumbs to lick

the bittersweetness for it too

loathes and then lingers like a

planted demon seed inside the

body

 

We can not out run the nature nor love?

Can we out run love.. A demon fleeting

and then standing touching his heart

In a universe he had arisen in the beast

of man the beast of burden and my sympathy

is in this creature Finger by finger and he is

beloved The night deliquescent preserved

The illuminated light over his frame and the

stars blooded in the white of my eyes Was

that the fire of no sleep or tears I do not

want to know the answers I do not seek

 

You use to feel for me without looking You’d

touch every part of me the lengthened longing

would show you the breathing petal like cords

in my neck, you would kiss The teeth in nerves

across your soft flesh closed into mine I became

an animal aching to be with you And hour by hour

still when you’ll leave this skeleton and loose the

hands and voice of art, torn like ligaments from

the sky

 

It will dilute in empty air the earth will be smooth

silk and jagged like razors where it must be and

it will drift away. These sensations like glory

 

Pale open hope the ivory, skin to skin bodies

Ground to ground and my belly your belly.. raspberry

blood in spiral A classical tune of smoke like souring

lavender in the dissecting field I am the rose thorns

You’re the lender dear I Brave now, that you found

something immaculate Have you? This dark dead night

answers her across rose fields, questions her

 

I wither in Januarys fine jewel like frigid fire you

have escaped and I claw the bare heart scraping

the joy for tomorrow, for tomorrow will no longer

cut slit into tomorrow clouds Full of blue smoke

in heavy lidded eyes like linen on your body heat

A faithless room becomes a room A musician

without a voice tonight but a guitar and strings

that play like a body Nightmare freckled songs

that linger to the bottom of your soul they have no

control Sunken, sink into the quick rapture

 

We do never out run the capture

It’s blanket like light or darkness

 

I knelt upon my knees not to pray A cathedral

song parasite cream tongue on breast fills a

beautiful scream to the moon and silk space

nervous for fragile love no thickness cast the

due to death separates So does if we wait and

await unstable collections of the mind tumble

in whirl wind left secrets in the deep end

 

I believe in your spirit if doom it should lay

The angles and demons have all fallen down

here and they dance together So I believe and

I do Psalm hot rod heads to touch you while a

hummingbird blue sings in my finger tips to tease

you and a thousand moons weigh nothing

 

Divided constellations seek your faith Rapes in

the fever silver thin cancellation of the rippled sea

like mouth you open to say ”A saint, is awake”

And to look at me and pray You knelt upon your

knees to the savage waterbody of a woman you

see with a piano spine but I am that hunchback

do not look at me I am a broken song and you long

for me

Hello from my planet! I love nature, freedom, dancing, traveling, music, reading, chilling, cats and the woods. What makes me happy is healthy food, a good night out, long walks in the forest and getting lost in the sound of nature.
