Written While the Water Was Still Warm

3 white candles.
Earthy bath infusing with my elements.
A French film, my thoughts.
I don’t want to ever give this up again—
I won’t, can’t live without it.
I’ve created distance between my lovers and myself again;
no wonder they don’t believe me.
But I mean it this time—
I only want myself.
I’ve grown warmth.
My hollers are a gradient opera.
God help me.
God leave me alone.
I knew it—
I knew it.
He’ll never leave me alone.
How’d he conceived a string
out of nothing—
nothing.

Dear moon,

Honeyed Tears All Over

He said my full name
those sound waves
honeyed all over my nervous system

My lover sends me music that I replay for weeks
because it reflects my soul
and makes me cry
my thoughts have become so loud
i’m yelling back at them out loud
and didn’t even notice

Maybe the lesson is to let go the first time
How dare he reflect me so
left me wide open
for the crows to knit and pick at me

°The Bridge Of My Identities°

The bridge of my identities
the space where I defy
where my oh my deity lies
There be many more of us round this time
it’s lunacy
it’s benign
they prefer to speak all at once
romanticizing a dime store novel
we thicken as heavy falls to follow
Maybe we’ll try again tomorrow..

A Little Love

A little love to all my anonymous lovers this year… your quiet devotion tastes divine.
And to the silent ones watching me from the dark; bless you, for you’ve been delicious this year.
A kiss to every admirer who wandered my pages; keep lurking, lover, your presence is felt.
Bless the website ghosts, IG lurkers, midnight readers. You have warmed this year in ways only the unseen can.
Thousands of eyes, no names. Bless my hidden darlings your silence kept me entertained all year.

•∆|| Sweetness with Teeth ||∆•

I’ve softened. I lost almost everything.
I live in another world—I shouldn’t force an earth landing.
I should return to the swinging sky. I miss my dad. I see him all the time. In the ones that love, in the ones that hurt. I’m heaving, I’m hurting.

Right now I’m sad, lonely, fueled off my anger
and sweet vengeance that lifts me up—aflame.
My pain is subtle.
Clear as day in the micro movements.
Forgotten on someone’s windowsill.
If I’m still, my eyes swell.
This is hard.

I’m pernicious. My harm is subtle.
A silhouette just silent and still.
You don’t feel it till you do.

My heart has extra beats now.
My chest is a wicked storm, numb to the groundswell,
toes curled, jaw locked.
I must take a new shape to survive this.
I’ll have a completely new life come snow fall.
I won’t be “myself” anymore.
I want to yell and scream and say hurtful destructive things.
