I’ve sat by the side of this pool
long enough
Dipping in these toes
Like a lamb
Afraid to mix my blood with yours
Until this moment
Afraid to sever with the ordinary, the safe, the nonchalant
Until this moment
When I, could overthrow you, become your body
I, am like a lion
They’ll shout my name like napolean
Name cities after me
Fall in [...]
So search me and find me
I’ll retire to the slab if I must
Ponder my liquid future
Intrude on my stone past
Scale the heights inside me
Creep through me
Arrive in me
And when you know me name me
I retire to the slab
Yours
Dandelion.
Talent time.
And this is true
what I’m about to spew.
Adore.
In depth.
Special.
Eclipse.
Heart broken not, but I’ll turn it side on.
So you don’t see it shining like the sun.
For you
Claim your canvas,
invent innocence.
imprint lost impressions on your wall…
…and be your wrecking ball.
What will you leave standing at all?
Every day there’s room for awe,
inspiration…
a step forward…
…and some creation.
Every day this…
…and this is all.
Busted sequins
Bet you must’ve never thought
THAT was coming your way?
A hunch..
pickled onions..
…was the only of nine brothers
who would persuade you to stay.
A tower of time
And gently
You were mine
And can caress I.
