I slumbered within places meant for peace-- finding none. I stood on ground which had not been lived upon knowing it too well likened to the darkness in my heart, overgrown and fierce--changed with intrusion. No, it is not my place, nor my state of mind which binds me-- no transcendance shall happen here. “bye” No other shall remember. It is not meant, unimaginable. I struggle to find the appetite-- “To whom does the spring belong, Arise; arose, arisen” More than memories. Liquid to the linear’ murmuring thirst. Excite me. Take me as if I were a guest; Delight me. Differing we met-- the interpreter dead. How may I speak without words? Let me explain in bodily fluids, and a nerve system that obeys your touch... And I will take no advice-- linger not in doubt or reason, nor logic. Weather I descend, ascend, or stay rooted on the ground. I want to see the imbalance through the eyes in chaos-- without veils or assumptions. Tell me have you let your fingertip explore your lip, while my kiss would cause a different sensation-- yet I do not want to kiss you so the world knows I have, I want to kiss you because I have a desire to. Absence from the flesh. I am a man, just a man. I watch with hungry eyes and speak in animal tongue, and feel the heat rise in me, the body in speech-- the breathing becoming heavy, and if I let myself I would surely ravage you in many ways not caring what becomes of you, nor me. But, I do not. those eyes may yet comprehend my will-power’ such it is that I have saved you from me. “bye” |
