Another Anvrill/bsquirrel thingie.

Moon of two
The dark is thirsty, my love.
I wonder
if you dare to quench it?

Will you drink my shadow shape
as though it were
a cooling drink?

Tease your fingers
in the sea
of my salt and tide?
Break the glass
in celebration
upon my ship's side?

With every kiss,
will you swallow me whole?
Let the entire night
then drown with you.

Can we writhe in these black waters together?

Slowly,
so slowly,
running out of breath.

Put the moon
on a spoon ...
swallow its white light.
Put ourselves
upon the moon
and stay up all night.
Become the reflection
of light in a darkened sky,
hold out your finger --
your rays of white.

We can touch the earth now,
if we want.

Your gravity
makes my tide.

Rise.

Oh
drown the shore
of I.

Feel my angsty reachiness!

Wrooooong! You rock, admit it. Before everybody else does for you.

These smiling eyes are just a mirror for the sun.

I find it funny that when you announce in the title, basically, it will be much read... No one does. Nice goin', Mr. Mope.

squirrel dude,
Is it like bad manners to comment on a moderators' post?? You know, like tipping the bar owner? If so, I never said how much I like this piece, and will deny it, if pressed.

This is some awesome writing, Mike...I am amazed by the imagery in this...truly a brilliant poem!

I notice when the males respond, they mostly just acknowledge Mike... So thank you, Devina! I exist again. I feel all warm and fuzzy. Whoah. Now maybe Mike won't have to use subliminal messaging in his poetry.

And I just realized that the first poem we wrote together (this year; we had a spree two years back, and it was very filled with sex and/or lovey dovey stuff, which is quite the combination) was all foom with the fire and the burning (may Roman Dirge forgive me!), and the second was all sploosh with the water and the drowning. Now we just need earth and air, and we're ready.

(Oh, and Kris, thank you also for acknowledging my existence in the creation of this piece. I really do like existing. )
