He Said
He said my magic was brown
It was the bed of the earth
I filled him with mirrors
Better to see him
I tasted him pliant on my tongue
Better to eat him
He became my sacrament
He said I moved
slow like lava
I bled into his steps
He heard his carrion
Rising out of another dream

How Stone Remembers
The memory of
the stones
are in the dead and
hidden near the
roots of trees.
The stone remembers
by telling on us
our unwise ways.
How we walk
the earth like
sullen gods
disregarding deity
ridden promises.
The stone remembers
but not like us
holding grudges
and peering into
madness...

What The Dead Know

What The Dead Know
You follow me
faded dream after
faded dream
Your face was
not your own
perhaps you keep your
secrets away from me
Perhaps you want some
part of me
the freedom of being alive
hand in hand
lips to lips
Like lovers do
how they feign
the loyalty of dogs
they betray each other
they always do
But in the after life
there is no pretending
just the abyss, god and
the cold living nothing

Bitter Sweet
I don’t know the Sun
but
outside I have
made a mess of things
and
the days have gone
slow fleeting
You should know I’d swallow
You entirely
and
the wind is
a formless deity
We don’t know where a poem goes when its forgotten
Perhaps like love it sleeps in the recesses of our soul
And awakes in the boundaries of our pain.

All The Time You

All The Time You
Pain is red revenge
blood clotting grudge
swollen deep into the
cut that isn't you
while
healing is blue bliss
cool fluid forgiveness
soul soothing freedom
that is all the time you
