Master of men

laurei — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 14:21:21 +0000

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 love in my boulevards

Think back romantically
on my times
And even on those who live at my feet
Yes I will be a signpost in the ages

By me they will navigate the past.

Master of men.

Slab

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

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

Toujours Amour

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

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.
