I swallowed the words irking a deadly silence within. The shapeless, seamless, serpentine streets, of the illusory looking glass and blue bottle shardsmelting the edges into whiffs of mollusc mistiness as it drops bit by bit by bit into the pools of flame of the mantelpiece. The denial of their absence exists in the wisps…

Seasoned
Chemtrails of blurring vision, As the last of the flashes collapse Into a heap of grief and gloom, It walks back leaving muddy footprints Through the screen door And into the unknown. Piercing into peaches Now dripping gossamer egos Tasting the tangy trails in the truth Of a white lie and an orange brute. Unbuckled,…
Minuteglass
There were none to offer solace For the time that had passed me by Had me, pass it by. Grains of sand As they trickle through, Decamp the morbidity of the mortal realm Fathom all the life and suspend their self into death Only enough to lick it bare and drop it there. Stays not for the…
Lovers Parting at Sunrise are Not in Love

Standstill
It’s left us In all its glory A passing whiff of our pasts Throwing in scraps of memories Down my throat, Leaving me breathless Choking on air and crumbs of what was left of us. All I ever do is sit silently Waiting for it to drown me in its gigantic aura Crushing the lilacs…
Requiem for a Sinner
Stepping into the room with tears ebbing the rims of my eyes. threatening to burst into drops of cold ice. Swirling in my mind a thousand words jumbled up and muddled stuck to the knots crushing my throat. I wish I could but I can’t scream or cry or speak. It chokes me crushes me …
Modern Revolutions
The dust that I harbour in the magnanimity of these ruinsswirls through the confusion and quiet collusion now in a spin running down the minds and the bones.Tracing the fading trails of a smashed Tennessee Somewhere in the deep wounds of their gory bodies.Trembling before the Triad with a smoke tucked under tonguesPraying in the laments of neon….
