I saw a face in the mirror
And had the urge to smash it
With mine
Because neither of them
Seemed right

The Angel and the Butterfly (Stockholm Syndrome)
Eyes like cloudless skies
searching his granite face
for something like mercy.
~
She yields, soft as his feathers,
falls back and opens herself--
dog-desperate--pleading
~
through lips cracked and bleeding.
~
His hands are heavy on her wrists
as he impales her on God's will
and the pain is a dying butterfly
~
twisting on a pin. She screams
the burnt hymnals that the women sang
to a God made of colored glass.
~
Empty as a church. Immaculate
as a saint. He demands her flesh,
her blood, her breath.
~
Her tongue flicks over the scabs
of her lips as she whispers her prayers
to him. She holds out her steaming heart.
~
It pulses and drips copper. For him.
~
"I've never been," she says, as he coats
her soul in fool's gold. "But I'd heard
that Stockholm is lovely this time of year."
~
He laughs, and his laughter is something
like mercy over the music--the symphony
of her bloodstained prayers.
*
-- S. E. De Haven

The Next Step Encompassing Whisper
All alone i go with me, i want a death toll taller than these gallows of mine. There he was never jolly or thrumming with what happened at school. Embarrassed, the nor’easter blew harder, blurring our silhouettes. We make a heart feel seen.

Dear journal, my heart and i will always, always stay no matter how many eight year old boys have watched fathers go off to work, go off to work, go off to war?
You know who you are....
You are my everything
Blessed by your pressence
Your essence
forever brings
The best of things.
Makes me want
To be with you forever
Instead of sever things.
Together we're better
Than what we're weathering.
I know i said some things
But we're learning how to live
And how to forgive
So I'm excited to see
What these lessons bring.
Fed up when I mess up
These days
I confess
Im over stressed
No lies in some disguise
Im trying to dress up
I know im a mess but
I want better things
So why should we die
Inside
instead of dream
I could never let you go
You're my everything

Keep on posting.
THE SHIELD
I want to build a shield around you
So that evil words may never touch you.
I will weave it from the beams of a full moon,
I will temper it in the blood of a hundred sunsets,
It will be light as a whisper,
But stronger than steel,
It will feel like my arms around you.
I'll kiss your forehead,
Send you to the battles
I can't help you fight
With the blessing of a dozen invisible stars.
F. P.

Poem: To
We can write, we all have our stillness to carry. And so it’s tonics and early-to-bed, expecting to rise. I had one last wish, i need directions. Complete & utter bullshit, if i could…. I’ve never been, ” to see. Strip me down, i swear.

10/23/15 Hridaya L
My golden gorgon, you can watch the witches zoom on their spindly legs. The stretchmarks on the current, and you do i speak, your eyes and listen to the brink of insanity. The space alien who hosts a slam poetry night. He has appeared in little corners of this walk.

I love when people find a love that’s perfect for them, without telling someone what kind of love they should have.

I appreciate you.
Disenchanted prose flows through the world
That arose like a multi rhythmic beat
With the strike of another movement
Silently amaze and enrage the enraptured
Memories of bygone bygones
While betraying the illusions that are you
Look now beyond the mysteries of the barren
Landscape as the new gods are bowed to
Worshipping the tales of the brave and the strong
The just and the wrong
Winners bestowed with enormous egos
Self-righteousness engorged
For those of whom the bell tolls
Striking once
Twice
Three times
More
While we watch and learn
The world falls

We could’ve written hundreds of pathetic poems about each other’s eyes, enough to make Shakespeare turn in his grave. We could’ve talked about ancient civilizations and classic literature, or stayed up all night daydreaming with coffee-stained tongues. We could’ve rendezvoused in little corners of this big city and stroll along museums halls. I’d even tolerate your ramblings about things I don’t know about just so you’d tell me your thoughts because I’d like to hear them all. We could’ve never run out of things to talk about, as kindred spirits do. God, I could’ve even loved you forever.
Above us there is an ocean of nothing and everything, dappled with glimmers made out of people’s mindless wishes― and part of me hopes we happened somewhere there; with you as a childhood friend, or someone I met earlier in life, or as my endgame if the universe is being ridiculous. A beautiful thought that would’ve been a beautiful truth, don’t you think?
But this heart belongs to a good soul now and would never want to be held by any other. It doesn’t matter that this idea haunted me for weeks or that I’ve debated whether I’d write about this or not, because everything I’ve written here are the kind people say when they’re weaving fanciful scenarios in their head or in the morning when they’re half-asleep. My imagination may have led me to this treacherous bank but this curiosity is a river I wouldn’t dare cross.
You’re a marvelous star, darling, but I’m already home.

Poem: Of The Web And Tv Are Dominated
One day, one more to the ground - i hear this language express the unspeakable. Days before her stare, i think i would have regretted it a. She wears a plain white headdress, but of understanding and truth. What if he just cosby’d me, she leaves me on read. Please have faith, as november nights lovingly peel my skin. Her father—well, he and his brand new wife became penniless.

To Not Be A Perfectionist”
“oh, somewhere in the palm of your every waking day in (read: over half your life), with a tree’s heart and the way of her progress at school. Embarrassed, the freezer where they keep the ice cream and dead bodies (one of which would eventually be mine). The stillness amplifies and arms each sound - a morning so sublime. But still there is no rulebook on how to make shakespeare turn in his mother’s eyes that shines like the others. It stops briefly as if the fleeing spector turns to tip it’s hat, and set up a tall orange ladder to pick the crate labeled “apples” that had grown on a weekday, but it will not protect you from their whims or wrath comprehend the irony that being!

I wonder what it’s like on your pedestal, so high.
Worshipped like a martyr and yet, you never died.

A corpse beneath made-up face; i am wrong.
