Pricks

From a certain angle
even the most dangerous ones
seem beautiful
And yes, beauty resides inside pain
but won’t be held
in an embrace there
or caressed with gentle hands
or kissed with generous lips
Those sharp edged tools
only serve you humility
in a moment where comfort
was out of your control
and you thought you could handle it gracefully
despite being pricked before
you can’t pretend that pain is love
at least not for too long

Undelivered Love Poem #2

Undelivered Poems Volume 1. Poem 1.

I ran my fingers on the shiny metal
you soldiered
in my hidden ritual
I shake my moonray heart spell with
invisible cinnamon
dirtying my fingertips
each time I pass
I lightly caress the gates you curl into shape with your fire.
I ask the Gods of Love for a lightening bolt to spark your heart vein…
for you to wake up in an epiphany
inside your dark sad eyes
and feel my touch in your memory
of my lips against your neck
of your head on my lap
safe and relieved.
you were cool there
and at peace.
In prayer I see
you craft the key
you open the gate
and welcome my heart in yours.

Undelivered Poems Volume 1. Poem 1.

1.   And if I did dance on the moon and painted your whole physique on the side of a brick wall…then would you notice my eyes, when they look at you? 

Quickie

I am not a simple song

I dance till I drop

don’t string me along

need you more when I rest less

you blank stare I undress

 

 

 

9

In the dawn there is you

Drawn in gold, unique hue

Shining as a dance of stars

Limbs in long embrace

I’m mouthing all my joy

Smile as I taste

You come of deep earth

A stretch of solid ground

We crescent from the raindrop

We kiss to breath moons down
On an ocean of sunrise

You spark fire out your hands

Reflection in our eyes

My venus your warm land

Traveling for miles

Further than we think we can

Where the stars fly and the hearts lend

Inside love

I’ve been transported to joy
And forever this love is finding me
At the right place
Creeping in when I least expect it
Slaying my fears in an instant.
I’ve been given the gift of bliss

It no longer eludes me
Warm heart in knowing of
the beetle and the hawk
North and South protected.

The Sun I was

the Sun I was
Shining boldly over the horizon
Then took to
racing a rain cloud
he caught up to tie me,
neck to neck
I couldn’t hold onto the light
For both of us
Night dark heavy water, his golden edges
blindsided my speed
He swiftly took the lead
my warm glow faded
Beaten by a soft swift wetness
I turned to my night moon
to catch my fire again
Rising slow
Fast rain clouds never stay too long
without turning into the sea

Centaur

Centaur

Old man stead
Head flame
Teach me how to laugh
in my sleep
wake me up
kissing the back of my neck
Be my shiny penny.
Steal all the diamonds for me
I’ll sacrifice my jade eggs to you
make beds seem useless and
crowds disappear.
Tune all your stations
only to hear your song
my dear
If in my
Eye you see u
how I do…
Lucky charm
Four leaf clover
Horseshoe and rabbit foot.
You can hit the numbers honey
Jackpot aces, no hook
double sided rainbows
wish u
a shooting star, sugarcoat
my muthafuckin’ lining silver
arrow point
to fluffy clouds
Sunsets
over black sand
turn up loud
Itch my money hand
hot step in the
rain dance
full moon lit…
Make haste darling
Gonna live long
how they talk….
we so damn pretty
Slow down time too
Fuck me ugly
till I become earth again.
Cum on my lips
to eat my dinner plate
Silly
puddy my limbs
into new shapes
Call upon Oshun    my sacred treasure
golden archer
centaur.

Viejo Amor

Viejo Amor
In the thumping neon flashing bachata
My feet and hips surrendered
got lost again in the distant thunder asleep under your lips
Just as willingly I gave in
to the sweet numb of my neck under your fingertips
Dancing our hands clasp
your palms damp with nerves
you patron to
machismo, mi papi, viejo amor
Your mouth only tells
the truth when speaking tongues to my thighs
We are a fireball shooting thru the dark sky.
burning blindly hot, fast and hard glowing… we fly.
then quickly falling…disappear.
Shooting blanks thereafter.

Rubbing my eyes
You are just an ashy pile
I turn and walk away, my dancing shoes in hand

Never needed you to glow…
me amo

Rain in love

It is so very right
To listen to the rain at night
Cooling the soil
The birds singing loudly
Dancing across the branches
Celebration of a loud peace
The droplets giving each a bounty
My heart is filled with grace
Bouncing water filling gaps
Where I was lonely
I’m nourished again.
I can write of joy
Not only passionate strife.
Flowing curves of liquid my dance is becoming again new.
My day rebirthing
