voyeur in the
mirror’s
pupils pale and
scan glass of
surface
within,
for..
imperfections
and cracks from
where my fist
went in..
++++
a fractured face
smiles back
at mirror
where anger
shatters
into pool of
cooling
tears.

torch me to
tatters
with first hint
of your
breath, and i’ll
suck mine
down
++++
if you vow to
meet me
somewhere quiet
on the inside,
i’ll promise you
a safe but
dark
little place
to hide,
in..
or drown.

..won’t let you down.
i’ve nothing real
to write and
the lights
hurt..
so, i’ll just shut
these eyes
and write
until i
do,
though what I
feel’s pure
gold..
may look a bit
off yellow
to you,
of..
bleached
soul,
it’s clear mine’s
still full of
holes.
i still wear moths
more than i
do clothes.

think i just heard
the sound of
death,
it wasn’t the scream
one’s come to
expect,
no strain, no pain
nor bulges in
veins..
like you’d get from
any played out
instrument,
just the dissolving
weightlessness of
soul’s pure
song,
+++
eased ‘tween a
lax pair of
lips.
