The Gorgon Lives in This One
There were vines up her skin slender mossy streams that breathed life into her veins eyes brown like that dried up mud- sticky surfaces that burrow you into the Earth Those branches latch and tangle entwine around the crevices of her heart She had leafy shells in her hair Strands…

A Tribute To Mortals
I’ve transcended realms cascaded off the cusps of stardust and melded sharp meteorites into emeralds Procreated worlds Phenomenons of cataclysms that your kind scrounge for grovel over fluorescent spheres the old moons pray to Heavenly bodies Proclamations of glory and accolades of desire that garnish me in sharp creams litters…

Requiem For The Muse
You would have thought strings were attached to that body of yours The way they tried to control you They trickle out words of affection conversations of companionship but what they want is intimacy They want to dredge their talons in you deceive you because of your kind words They…

Last Letter
It wasn’t meant to go this far You told me spewed it to me after one hundred twenty one days I thought this was real I believed that those two hundred and twenty nine minutes were as real as life itself But you brandished me Molded me into…

The Pursuit Of Pleiades
There’s gold on your skin little tiny speckles that I would lay down and count The world stopped spinning once whenever I had tried You laid there and said my eyes were laughing I was imaging us turning into those sprinkles We would shift into little balls of dust …

Ripe / Problems
I fell for you when the first drop of snow landed I could have been a rose in a field of your tulips your bulbs encasing my thorns But you made my petals burn obsidian Your bell shaped words prickled my husks velveted it with your lies It painted…

1500 B.C.
I’ve always envied those people who invented that bent little t-square Measuring the passage of time Eyeing one shadow as it makes its way along the crossbar How miraculous that moment must have been sharing it with another I imagine it’s much like my time with you Like…

Thinly Veiled Ravens
It smelled of metal and gunpowder Spicy and toxic coupled with bloodshot eyes fingers twitching alight with anticipation My body thrummed with the excitement that only comes when blood is shed A timid strike is what broke me a gentle tapping rapping at my chamber door Obscurity is…

The Dispute With God
There are firm pillars lining the walls of my heart blocking that amorous aura you send me I always get these segments With rough patches of slug that dehumanize our logic I had once thought it was God His mighty hand coming down to chastise us A…
