the song recedes as silence
quiets whispers
in stunned
crowd,
the buckets of sweat
and tears
shed preparing
for show
night,
behold..
the dreamer’s spark
given life in
staged
light.

giving in
now and again
to that inner
smile
can take years
off one’s
stone,
save your words
for our next
face to face not
via phone.

stoneback lizard’s
diamond cut
sheen..
breaking eyes’ silence
in eerie shadow
greens,
a glisten glitters curve
of serrated
leaf
and tender skin
between,
dew drippin’ thick as
ice cream syrup
drizzled
over..
scales of lizard
queen.

you’ve got balls calling
me hypocrite..
like folks who aren’t
still exist
in primate
form..
first crawl atop a
dirty beach..
thirsty for
more,
i believe in santa and
a sugar junkie
bunny,
but not the curse
of monday
morn,
flicking through
channels for
funny
but
all i find’s more
robo-porn.

every composition
has a destiny,
and when i deny
nature’s
pull
it strains in head’s
cinched belt,
a little understanding?
i could use a
friend..
let it out, just a
notch or
two..
so oxygen may
flow again.

bend me ’round your finger
like a ring through
borrowed
vows,
it ain’t perfect, but i
love it dearer
than any
wedding tune the priest
yawned through,
and still..
he has the nerve to
ask me if
i do?

just here in the cave
under hood,
working away, more
magic whispered
each hour
into
thirsty ears to be
showered
onto page bright and
loud for nobody
to hear,
it’s play but hard work,
my two hands
in the dirt.

a teardrop magnified
in light well,
pain stopped soon as the
dagger action twisted
blade broken,
no blood, all
smoke in
glass,
gains lost in a blink at
the point of
wager,
i’m rummy sailor bored
at port, scanning
tavern for..
a call to
war.

time rolls on like
gran’s pin..
over sourdough better
when baked..
no warmth for
worries..
leave ’em to the captain
of this sinking
kitchen,
just..
some flashback to a
story that never
happened.

mouth’s a pop gun,
tongue sharp
knife,
i fancy myself
blushing
bride..
but don’t call
me wife,
drunk on champagne
kiss, it’s confetti
i speak..
but if you take my
hand, be
wary,
i kiss as cold
as jack’s
feet.
