MY CLOSET IS THE CLOSEST THING

my closet is the closest thing
to my heart.  i keep my soul
behind the door to my closet,
is all i ever knew and
safely tucked away behind
that door my heart;
near the shoes by the soul
below the pants and within
the corner of my weeping eyes
i hide my heart.
my closet is the closest thing
to my heart.

THUNDER MASKED MY SCREAMS

i cried and
the rain covered
my tears
and the thunder masked
my screams
and i hated being
so human

MASCARA SMEARS

WE walk upon the lemon slice
like-Earth spinning dish
a garnish upon our plate
a heart full of pie
and i love your face
it makes mascara smear
when i taste your heart

oh, moon like a drop
of caught tears!
i crushed you there
in my fist,
and on top of day
i forgot your name
when i taste your heart
it makes mascara smear

Oh well, oh yeah
it’s an open space
oh no, oh my
i died forgiving
just two hands upon
a wooden cross
and mascara smears

I HAVE SEEN THAT SUN OF YOU

i have seen that sun of you like
the light

(my heartMOTH drawn by warmth-fields
and honeyWORDS i hunger in eagerSoul…
…. .                       …
. .. . . ………………….*

the weak muscle (i never knew strength)
beating inside the castleChest breast
OF too many battles of courage
and weakness fell these walls of life

the stir is unutterably a broken wing

dreams of thrilling life never known
forever
my phantom feeling Fields

when summer is born
–in the mouth
where wet souls
kiss the body
of
love
should
we die

HONEY STOMACH

here in my heart
collaborative
bee hi’ve voir
smiling and stabbing
building new
arg, you ments!
it’s all here
within my heart
aggregate structure
like bee hive
i died honey drowning
and my flowerSoul
so sugary juicy
a vicious tongue
sucking blossom
all within your
Honey Stomach
So full of me
you said, ‘Sting!’
and flew back to
the hive of all
the souls you
killed!

THE SUN ON SUNDAYS

If confusion has you
(distance and emotion
means the heart skips
smoothly across wishes
of a dreaming spirit)

If you love
(me, i’m the agent of
confusion by way of
my unbridled mind)
a soul, the kindness is
smoothly a skipping stone

And inevitability is cousin
to fate, two clouds
serenading the sun
on Sundays the tears
of two hearts
shower-resembling flowers
like breathing-beating souls

THE SURFACE OF WATERY SKIES

UPON the surface of watery skies
below the waves of forgotten memory
you forgot the smile and her sun
and I drowned in daily life

And for just today you remember
a silent gaze for the moment
you saw my smile in your heart
upon the surface of watery skies

You swore a law you never abide
so you broke the half of sun
in my arms you fell inside
and the skies forever cry

If you ever stay in a place
i watch your feet as they run
always away into watery skies
i forgot the sun in his jealous way

And i swim up above reaching sky
while i see my heart drowning
below the waves of forgotten memory
and you forgot the smile and her sun

while i drown in daily life //

A THING OF PAIN

I saw today incredibly,
today just a few ticks
ago a thing that should
have never been.
Today I saw upon
two legs, a thing of pain
walking down the walk.
top hat, pocket watch.
Three steps by two.
A thing which I know
now, I know incredibly
I do!  A thing of pain
upon two legs for you.

FIVE POEMS – IV

Such wind blows my love, upon your dreams
that flower of fields once knew bright warmth.
And now the grasp of pain so coldly sweeps
upon frozen tears — pain hurts the soul!
I should say come away! Away from sorrow…
but the gate between fate and me is locked.
Should i find that eternal key it be your heart!

AND I’D CRY

AND i’d cry
if my last tear
hadn’t died
falling for you
