#331- smitten

and i, on the other side, can

not

stop thinking...

That dress you wore dark ash of a beautiful burning world black jewelled queen back heart, vanguard🖤 gems like dewdrops on spider web upon your neck filigreed dark gold that took themselves apart. picking shells off the kitchen floor of another night, your absence…

it blooms like gladiola.

Yet the way you paint your lips glossy pink peony glittered with all the stars of the sky has me failing falling… yes, falling a part…

Nah, english is not a good enough language for you Nah, it ain't cus you're not the safety of science but a disorienting work of art

#328- love in times of continental shifts

                   and once again i am killed   

               for loving

your sca   rs             

            willing continental shifts

drifting dangerously close a    

    part

the sun, the moon and        stars...

      they said love does

not devastate  

   neatly nurtures life trans

My love impure

      de  vours  life whole instead

They stoned me out of

        their cities so

                      i pla

y  the     dance of de ath

                            here lies

           my    love

 full of                               scars

magma molting, earth revolting

      thank my stars

talk to trees most of the time

                i have done m y t i m e

my dirty love shines bright in this green

and your shiny love falls a

                pa      art.

#326- a poem for a fitness jerk on a highland hike

if we were a herd of elephants you

            would be a bad leader...

      what makes you so great now?

you left

                     us behind

running towards your personal rainbow

      a pot of gold, did you find?

don’t know don’t care but

              twas

 a selfish thing to do

                    you thought you looked cool but

we were not proud of you.

if we were a herd of elephants

            you would leave a weakest behind

in the hunt to look after your own glory

              this hike

thank goodness we are not a herd of elephants

           and ive a home to go

youve once again shewn

                    yor true colours i aint

scared of you...

but if were a herd of elephants

         you’d be kicked on your hide

or well, nudged nudged nudged

                      nudged down a hillside.

#323- no fear in love

We love but once in our lifetime (Or many times, we love in an instant) And so we live with that pain, and so we Die with that pain:)... No fear in the face of love There's nothing to fear when you've loved There's no fear in the face of love! All I did was love Not some shameful deed So why should I hide myself in regretful sighs? No fear in the face of love Nothing to fear when you've loved There's no fear in the face of love! Today I will sing the story of my heart, Doesn't matter what the world thinks, Doesn't matter if they kill me! Death should be such that the world sees it-- This self-suffocation in secret makes no sense to me, Yeah, this suicide in the dark is not my cup of tea. No fear in the face of love Nothing to fear when you've loved There's no fear in the face of love! I will always aspire to them in my heart, there will always be celebration and light at this party. To live in love and to die in love-- That's all I have to do, nothing else No fear in the face of love Nothing to fear when you've loved There's no fear in the face of love! All attempts to hide my love will fail For their image, (the Other's image, the Divine image(!)) It's everywhere! When I have absolutely no veil with God, What's the point in putting masks on for humans? No fear in the face of love Nothing to fear when you've loved There's no fear in the face of love!

#322- Down Feather

In this city of black smoke billows, Poseidons trident’s gone awry... And last night, love, you spoke of a loveless technology town that this morning sounds like a heavenly sweet parade. Away from excessive emotion, towards good reason. Maybe the two lead separate lives in two parallel universe? Just burning lakes, no burning houses, a good price? Good trade? Nah, trade-off, yes? Heh, as if the two lead separate lives. In two parallel universe. Your fiery passion and my cool logic.

So here are some swords (some iron rods). Airy things that have become instruments. Of your terrifying passions. And there, on the other side, passions become disciplined for some Emperor’s Empire that calculates time as money. Hah, two worlds of folly, sweet sweet distress! Them seeking each other with hope for Salvation, what a pretty mess.

No bridges, yet too much hope, ‘tis fantasy warmth of matchstick lights. As arson swallows whole worlds infront of our eyes. We gaze into these matchstick lights. Choosing passion or reason. Love or distance. As if the two lead two separate lives. In two parallel universe.

#320- XVI The Tower at Full Moon

la luna

full moona

weird seas

in this space of no space

churning waves

in this vacuum as far as goes the gaze.

la luna

full moona

desert beach

water’s evaporated after the storm

now just dry barren land

and an eternity to mourn.

full moona

fortuna

the tower was set alight last night

by your “gentle” light

and bears came on in from the forest

and feasted upon all corpses in sight.

and another day, another morning now

fear of the outside plaguing our hearts

it’s a new bizarre world out there, which

head and which tail

witches’ heads and witches’ tales

so we hide in our fallen towers

desolation and fear tightly holding

shut a door that’s hinged on

wet, burnt, old crumbling walls.

#319- notes on witchcraft

but since the floodgates had opened

they opened for

everything...

a thousand thoughts in my head

a thousand fears

a thousand guilts

overwhelming, debilitating...

i couldn’t handle it

all my demons, everything...

thought after thought just rushed

into my body

one on top of the other

like colours

mixing together to make a new taste...

creating one fear to the next and the next and the next.

i could see myself being killed

by my own hands 

in many ways

realised

a hatred i carry,

self hate, internally, that

had been exhausting me, and

the true meaning of a symbol:

the symbol of death

by my own hands and

rebirth...

as a blade of grass

an alien smoking

weed.

so, about witchcraft...

heh, i really don't know how that happened.

but it did.

#318- An Incantation for Movement

the sky is flat and

bright grey

which suits today

i'll wait for rain and lightning

i slept deeply and with dreams

which memory deems

vivid yet

not worth remembering

proprioception

swimming

muscles tingling

my body's strange

in a daze minutes pass

some humid seconds

last

awaiting change.

#316 - glorification of pain

glorification of pain

is also repression

cus

instead of feeling

it in your body

you turn it

into an object

of worship

another abdication

of responsibility.
