My sodden mind...
An animal in an ivory cage.
The task: to find my way home tonight,
In a drink doused daze, but...
There was no triumphant flicker of eyes back and forth tonight,
Or clawing of kisses from sore lips, or,
Lime-breathed purrs of slurred delight, this time.
Just a pained absence
And I thought to myself that
Ever since I was cut away from my mother,
I've been trying to tie myself to somebody else
I tied myself to you

He's called home not to fanfare, or,
Solemn hammer fall.
But to the care of a childhood bedroom,
Silent despite the clamor of memory soaked walls
He looks at me as he once did:
With wild love and slight recollection.
He went for boots and inspections,
Brass buttons and drills.
Not since they drilled his soul from his head with shrapnel and scalpel.
Maybe I'll rest a pillow on his weary head,
And send him away
Like I did on that crisp morning in September.

Your touch,
Rose Glow
Go Slow,
Grown Ardour, Sown
By the lightest brush
Of my hands and thoughts
By your eyes
Sideways glances,
Fine brocades
And chance dancing
Of fingertips
On frosted shot glasses
You lift my spirits I drink them down.
So much noise it's white and hot,
And sears my eyelids.
Grace takes away safe spaces as readily
As it gave them.

(I adore you)
Sparks pass between lips
Parched of kisses,
And what hisses
Could trip this bliss
From the position it's sitting in?
On the lap of my heart,
On the lap of my heart.
(I adore you)

Exquisite Whips

Flayed by exquisite whips.
Laid low by delicate lips.
So eclisped by breath kissed hips,
And this is it.
He'll come like a friend,
Love you to no end,
And spend your lended love.
You took the moon
From the mantlepiece, soon
It will lead you here to me,
You'll see.
It's light draped round your shoulders,
Undress yourself of it for me.
We don't need it any more.
The dark we inhabit,
Place it back where you found it,
For other lovers.
