Sum
Have you ever been sun burnt
On the longest day of the year
Sixteen hours
Summer solstice
Burning up the tropic of cancer
Too much for a little dancer
Like you
Let me lay a fresh seam
Banking on a moonbeam
Circle of illumination
You're always with the hesitation
Making today longer than it needs to be
Have you ever had a black out
Just smears of color
Leaning on your lover
Twisted in the covers
With whomever that may be
Light fills your room early
The shortest night seems so blurry
Have you ever been sun burnt
On the longest day of the year
One of those days
You want to get through quick
Well honey, this ain't it
Circle of illumination
Like a pistol
Pointed straight at your face
Burning humiliation
No saving grace
That's your fear
On the longest day of the year
Wisdomer
"All young men are in a hurry" he says to me.
In a hurry for what?
(after a long pause)
"It seems I can't remember"
You, And The World
There's a sunset
I still remember
Particles in that humid air
Scented of soil and rich promises
Just beyond reach
Mingling and dancing on our hair
and flesh
A tinge of vodka
A splash
Of some fruit that now escapes me
Her eyes were bold
Strong
Her face, now a bit fogged
Perhaps the time and vodka
To behold! or to be held
Or the sunset
That I still remember
I’ve awakened to you
To all of you
Each piece of each part
Is poison in and of itself
Consciousness is demanding
In its pieces
More than we can bare
The ouroboros doesn’t suffer
But heals with its knowledge
I’ll give my rations of sun and water
To the seeds
Feed upon my own flesh
For the sake potential
Even the hemlock and the poppy
and the oleander
Trepidation in the clouds
Her eyes
Rolling against her spine
Droplets upon her cheeks
Memories beyond the horizon
Settling in the fog
Her shelter
Now
Is unrecognizable
