perfection
the wish
to be somebody else
to be so many atoms
different
a mirror keeps our conversation
on polished archives,
sometimes a stare is returned
most are gleam murdered and buried
how many cuts
fill the entire view?
can dna be usurped
or borrowed?
flawless curve
the satin tear
unblemished by the
lemon sour in people's faces
the sculptures of each day
you are the vessel
i want to wear
accept each visit
into befriended silver,
curdled glares back
twist like a daffodil's neck
discard my layers
to be like you
perfect
nothing
in night's utmost nothing
a burnt out angel stiff from chrome wings
lusts for wanting
and spoils it's heart sick
and i am stood upon a sharp poised pin
aimless as indifference
overly dream worried
it's frantic wish never dims
in razor cut sky
a blood edged sun
appears to die
the mystery of smiling
a blood puzzle to unravel
or bewilder, hoodwinked swooners
in kaleidoscope confusion sexual brim
swirl sounded thunder, bird sung lamentation
spills from the radio's bad born mouth
how empty can empty be?
i am all hollows for you to surpass
when thorns slide their squadrons
stabbing sides where kisses hold choirs
polluting with sharp fingers
endless yearning free falls within
losing thru' you what seemed myself
your's is a light for my soul to be borne
your's is darkness for my soul's return
am i nothing but mere guesses
upon disinterested fleshes?
am i nothing but blind footfalls
tripping vast pools
of ultimate affection?
an alias for timely rejection
wishing to be left unopened
for the rains to pass on by,
tear loads for someone other
than those broken
betrayal
cobalt cool holes
where eyes are set
upon their blank ghosts
my love
what demons crease
your black eased blood?
what kindness
has been murdered
adds silver to the mouth
trust is now dead vows
my love
an empty grave
fingered for you
my love,
a cold abode
where traitors go,
become collapsed rust
my love
churn endless circles
inside the clothes of judas
beguiler
easily knifes him or her
fake smiler paused upon the
easiest of liars
dead truths blunt upon lips
where scarce wasps
polish their poison,
lies lie so sweet upon their rose hips
my love upon a thousand shocked blades
this golden friendship has failed
upside down
the hour be late
falls softly spun-out-spirals
velvet to touch
as if wept
it's hours like these
that cause my own sea to doubt
like forgetful seagulls
forfeit sky to skim almost drowning
grimaces stroke listening clocks,
come-glisten-shivers thinly struck needles
so fine as to pierce unnoticed sighs,
my heart became built of disturbed fire flies
and kisses lie
like angels melted
by their sins,
it froze me in the dark
a dew likened whisper
thaws the clasps
drawing liquid pictures
snowflakes upon backs
whirled
spun
maelstrom
the dizziest height i am it's
cool jewelled water edge,
arise wood stiff sculptures
abandon from surfaces of the flattened dead,
should i sip?
hummingbird come kiss
unlatch this trembling, eager wish
i am a moth
you, the flame's roar in which i flit
and the carousel spins
step in
circles reduce circles
until distraction commits
my flesh to diminish
upside down
ceiling onto the floor
crawling inside to out
suck these hot bones
first in, then out
upside down
the head is sky
within me fly
your expanse of violent wings
king salamander, you all fire violet swathes
slide your burning flowers in
like a hot stream's path thru' out skin
all that should gleam begins to glister
on voltages nearer the sun
glow, unzip me it's ingot hinge
ghost, were it not for the coming of morning
our hands entwined would reach the coast of heaven
like spears the fiery sun did remove the eclipse
and the cellophane soul shimmered
companionship into oblivion
nightmare
on empty stalks the beheaded gawp,
taut eyes clay eyes grope towards sunshine
half eclipsing, half damaging thought
fingers croak open and worlds cave in
the bedclothes are frost
encasing skin
drowned pillows have mouths
and inch pointed teeth
this cotton creature devours
head, hands and feet
a splendid gold street
it's vacuous people leer
thru' the shared sheets,
legs are lead
and being swallowed by the floor
gaunt rages scratch
opaque inside veins,
scurrying mad paws
hammer the brain's metal
into passive butterflies
formaldehyde grazed winds
photograph each still
but my landscapes
are dead willows
so blackened sighs
stir amongst death's denying echo,
falling sounds caress mute
unspeakable mouths
then reoccurring you
from bogus shadows call
i am all splinters sprawled
stairs made bone
tempting gleams for sleep to follow
to lapse within your ultimate echo
and made so fallow as to lose
every drop i have ever swallowed
the sky is the medicated ocean i tumble
it's flat despicable earth,
the soil is decaying me
in it's putrefying bed
and from it's unnatural edge
that voice comes syrup calling,
i slip the final trap
awaken on my back
the sheets twisted
as if around my very soul
scar
and the heart sank undiscovered flesh, wrecked,
skeletal fragments lay sleepless upon seabed,
drenched in dresses of unbecoming silt
her soul waged, began to wilt and break,
the love we took minutes to build
decays under it's own discord and weight
fathoms down our love has drowned
where even the manta rays fray
so silent a whisper does erode her
the vow we had disintegrates
i laze above you
where once we synchronised
your heart reefs a shark,
scar, festering below pretend mended surface
tending to it's hate, she makes it grow
adding cancers to it's shape
"i will wait" she breathes an azure arc
"forever if need be"
"this place our grave
our home, our keepsake, our shame"
i add veils
and drift the shallowest way
some say shadow instills in others,
those that have loved collapse this way
and when all is most shattered
come collect these addictive wings
where those dark birds sprawl
their relentless midnights,
come ply me with dark roosts
your voice silk as slime
wail deep shroud
a figurehead broke
her swan head bowed
we are lonely and thistle crowned
and storms the sea
yearns for me
glancing back
your tides your fury i know
are treachery
despair
sulking happiness slips
it's joyous throat slit
thinnest moonbeam across lips
where no angel wants to kiss,
himself, slim slivered precipice
swallowing holes
brittle slick of hope,
sunrise demises thru' into misfortune
sad stares from floor to wall
wanting my heart cobweb enthralled
but desire rages comet bright
as if swords and sharp whistles
hot with s thousand glowing knives
dead lamps do not glare
nor do souls abandon but tear
fleeced by cold and frozen futile bees
hang harps by their bludgeoned flutes
unworthy of their blood deserting roots
forever falls
like forever residing sorrow
keeps nourished to shadow
and shade to resound bolder
yesteryear's icicle dream
slowly poisoning tongues
grey river, a river dull with blood
black refusing night, a thousand drawing sighs
into gossamer homicide
tonight
slow into a hole
there to be choked
drift thru' snared entangle blooms
evening's gathering suicidal gloom
despair in which my silhouette cools
further into sucked blue
inside
snakes,
thoughts
snails,
all flattened heartscapes
soft sleepless rain ghosts silence
mute heartbreak
tender as a razorblade
you by different names
cold window shares vinyl
inclement weather
it's noose time for the one
in perpetual stare
happiness should such sad rooted things come
cut it out with a severing tongue
an old ghost
tiptoes an old
ghost of dead voltage,
cold gloom points
amongst elderly
stained bones
this room is full
of holes and rotten
constellations,
an old suit of discarded
touches
'twas evening eating dinner
when it's memory struck home
spooning the bitter dessert
feeds this mouth alone
whispers of wishes
fallen to a throat
hint of deed
has kisses snared
here fingers a demon
tore thru' the artery's highway,
you are the guest
within my melt upon clothes
glows brighter when thought
spurns thought
they tide phantoms
a tang of autumn's cobweb
stale thighs
where white ivy
shares it's grope
and obscene strangle
where archives nourish
lightning flashes
your nightly fingers ease
across each heart attack
a lover's unadoring scent
desire has it's molecule truly bent,
unworthy of sperm
passion erred, punishment earnt
ceaseless whirs
concealment of hurt,
the ache of waking
what was never meant
a slow thirst a
slow heartbreak rots
amongst old shadows,
a ghost grown bold
me, so cold, why?
i am inert rainbows
and dead smiles
emptiness, the dining
room where voices rust
solitary corners where
loneliness flourishes
so often thru' draft
or by crippled creak
i hear you gently scream
crocodile
smudged affection
treacle in which we persist
canyon-howled-despair
my croakless accomplice
eat thru' me
like a syrup
corrosive at it's
most sugar edge
swallow
throat
sparkle
oh cupid stupor
in stirred up rainbows
and swarming senses
soar
by ghosting
flesh curves
both colours are
audible
and deep thru'
with spires
made to moan
torso's and infected
butterfly lids
curdle the bed
with a sniper's
promise
continue me
in a throttled
skin
the kiss is greyness
an echo
empty
hate is a remedy for
this sickness to snarl,
the wish to forget you
slumbering hesitant beside ice
voices prowl thru'
they whisper you, become you,
why am i in continuous
broken leaf fall?
burn
in sleep the dawn of which i would forget
and recline ether
swirling honey reclusive dew
and moist cooling rainbow
reeling soft trembled mist
chains like feathers carve upon wrists
the hardest heart
limestone drought becoming felt
like tiger rage
into a baby's howling delicate foam
as obvious as a child splashing in blackness
or in blood
within us float the minds of men
it is here that i flicker on
like a shy tempest
wanting storms to command
upon slime sliver ropes balancing edges
mouths open way down below
wanting to swallow what's not theirs to own
imagine snakes
wayward thru' veins,
and silent fingers lie as smoke
unfurl, curling into us both
till dusk performs
when the body sinks
shimmer-star-spent-dust
i would walk thee alone
upon blind sand's forever chrome
not even heaven
or meandering clock faces
could ever summon us back
you in brittle wake
in breathy undertow
mayhems circle
and the skin do seethe
with lover intent, angel speak
outstretched thru' out fathomless sleep
pluck me down
into your sober hole
eclipsed
silhouetted silences
until inferno burns fiery dream hurtle
a comet's brilliant white hot heart,
from chilled forest into sublime barren desert
dry winds suck the dancing enraged flame
me it's tinder, a lantern of fire
hot hands flicker,
and sheets of frost
and my clothes of cold
writhe volcano
interrupting the larva flow
we were petrol mouthed firework's
blue touched and fuse lit our salamander eyes
face like smoulder ignites thru' into each other's indigo
writhing expectant eels dart thru' colourful speeding
exploding crimson, petals the night with
the slimiest skins
from frozen we in nightly womb burnish bright
our souls made to calmly blister
firefly blood bubbles manmade sisters
in you i dive to burn off the skin's restraint
you all consuming geysers and steam filled kilns
we turn and scorch inside ourselves
every indecent colour, worlds within us sphere
onto dissolving floors
to fire with it all,
burn down angels
an abyss in each one of us sprawled
thirst suffers it's promise
to have more
but the desert is bleeding
white hot bare
into waterfalls cool
shatter across spines
like needle struck dew
our tears
on cinders howl
burn indeed does the man
who ventures thru' veil and vein
avoiding rain
come like gold of the sun
foiled with your burning explodes
warm and un-lonely,
togetherness glows
the hot intestines of the sun
unafraid with icarus wings extended
until killed by frost and made numb
deeply
so cold
so blue
the inside ice of you
so coldly still
and smooth
burden of dead seasons
slide over you
my last tear fell a year ago
i hold it closer
than i ought to do
stars crash down
less majestic crowns,
the sky is not worthy of jewels
i'll not forget you
chill inserted gazing
where the mermaids stray
all kisses afloat
until each breaker breaks
unspoken descent
where i brushed the sun away
to thaw
to pause my world in shadow's
forever
drenched blue
my thoughts long for you
but the voice i hear
is one lamented
a sweet ghostly song
truly bled
so cold
so blue
tidelessly swallowing you
and to the depths
languishing upon seabed
am i lit
as frozen as your drained lips
i know beats the heart's subtle plumage
softer nectar lurks
in fleshy cabinets
one single gasp
unlocks the throat
and from that pipe
a chiming note
an echo
shall infinite ghost
