And he holds ripened fingers
Inside me
Ghost freckles with one path
Shoving the present
“Love’s Endurance” looks history in the face
Truth teller with carrot juice and a
Self-employed encoded language
Hugging linens with an ocean view
No other goal then to homogenize
The dance of puberty
Lucky voices improvising on a piano
Whispering melody with right hands
While left hands go with it
In a compositional water
Virginal bodies etching

Everything he speaks becomes of
Like a women with long hair
Combing powerful narratives
The meanings come simultaneous
Deeper then chocolate
Not faking the moment
Not feeling the need to be a participant
In the Guinness Book of Records
But runs a marathon inside my heart
Without any by-laws

We’re in a room full of books
With stories yet to be recalled
Packing his shirts
In low stove flames
Pulling the wooden splinters
From my feet
We enter the afternoon
Painting blind
Giving touch interpretation
Devoted to a new culture
Humanity’s wanderlust
Turning the clock backwards

Suffering like a well loved mother
I commit love suicide
Bathed in virginal light
Cushioned in a Clandestine
Conspiracy Theory
