Let it howl

Poetry lightening bolt against purple black skies

Purple black bruised skies I see you throbbing ‘For who?‘ ‘From what?‘ Bring up the storm Whip up the wind Let it howl Let it rain Let me catch the broken pieces I hold no shade no umbrella over me come pour I will catch the littlest drops of you with the whole of meContinue reading “Let it howl”

Headless

Carry these tunes from my lips Lead the way Oh winds of the wings along my heart carry this melody echoing across lands Lead the way I have let reason take flight My head disintegrated my body now roams headless don’t look disgusted at the open nakedness don’t look to possess The beating melody reigns

Prayer Jar

Poetry a glass jar tied with a ribbon on earthy ground

A piece of pulped wood charcoal smudged with fervent fingers a primal prayer imprinted and burnt in a flash of flames ashes ashes they float like dust moats momentarily suspended till a gust of wind send them scattering far and wide far and wide the air swirls with prayers an open jar never full neverContinue reading “Prayer Jar”

Tweaked

Poetry Bird soaring in the sky against the sun

Let it tune you Let it come through tweak your rhythm a little wire it always a little higher with a little stumble a challenge heartbreak loss a catastrophe that shatters your spirit Let it through Let it through Don’t be afraid Don’t be afraid There is a promise of soaring beyond these tumbling wallsContinue reading “Tweaked”

Uncorked Ears

Poetry view from above of a forest in autumn foliage

how is it one word from you can send me spinning into an abyss one word and it has me bracing for impact the sound of your footsteps approaching has my shoulders raised to my ears a barricade my body self creates my insides roiling into a cool puddled mess as I float away toContinue reading “Uncorked Ears”

Bated Breath.

Everyone’s waiting with bated breath when the buzzing flies slows to a still when the winds stand and not a grain of sand shifts when oceans and lakes mirror the frozen skies. All waiting.. Waiting for the resounding crack of a shell breaking

Terrifyingly Alive.

heart strings taut vocal cords strummed fingers plucking the very air of silence pulling in souls consumed by grey days like the pied piper an artist in their element beautifying the world in colors and impressions, little divine creations words of enchantments music, dance and drunkenness drawing those clouded eyes to bloom in beauty andContinue reading “Terrifyingly Alive.”

Doors of Compassion

Poetry thick fog coming through the night, through bed of rocks with a spindly dead tree on an outcropping rock on the right

Bring out your depths spill out your guts there is nothing to hide, nothing to be ashamed of. The same dark carnal desires fester in me, congealed hate clot my blood a tower of prejudice straighten my spine relishing cruelty curl my lips cold detachment encase my skin venomous envy pour through my eyes hissingContinue reading “Doors of Compassion”

Part your lips.

The floodgates are open run your cords raw shatter the decaying constructs of rotting scaffoldings preserved barely on pickled tongues. Part your lips let Spring come through speak your truth live your truth let the warm blood coursing through you resonate with your wildest ridiculous dream love impossibly laugh infectiously It is truly a privilegeContinue reading “Part your lips.”

Wo(mb)Man.

Poetry A stone goddess rising from the outcropping of a a rock jutting out from the Earth in a backdrop of greying skies

Heat waves rising from her skin her body uncoiling like a snake lengthening felinely through the spine shoulder wings spread wide as an eagle chest bare with udders full. The womb of herself embraced reclaiming all that was taken given away unawares in her sleep enticed by promises whispered. The body that is shunned, shamedContinue reading “Wo(mb)Man.”
