Fades of day break
in tired cracks of storm,
The sky is weak
and drained of form.
Shifting. spinning.
one last sputter-shine
to grasp control...
with a thirsty breath dying...
Seizing on ribbon's end-
of the world going mauve.
Penetrating darkness
comes slow and soft...

Facing the east
on fragility's back,
I circle-spin weary-
as tautness grows slack-
A soft chant of wanting-
the night still begins...

Upon the horizon-
I shift countless times,
wandering faceless
in swollen grapevine...
Breathing toe-trudges
in the sand-
I beat back admission
I solid-rock stand...
Sucking gulps of cold fist
from the mottled pit of me...

I need... inhale... I feed...

Feed on the night scent
that has become this place
Of ramshackle demise
still in magical state.
Inhaling swiftly-
I whisper for Her
Beckoning strength
from a still night stir...

And She comes!

I sink down to knees-
and feel presence immense,
I feel tree songs in flight-
feel magically bent.
Shaped with hands of ivory mist
I lean forward promptly
to be graced with her kiss...


Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

words that take me to a darker place, an ancient kind way of seeing the storm and the termoil of passion. but you use a few to many conjoined words i think, thisorus.

One never fails to feel your words.

Until you twirled me in the rain" ~ BDC
