Naked Poetry

After the plane crashed...

In the mood to swallow fire...

I imagine it will be like a flight of baby doves...

Experience flesh.

      Let me find you.

 

Approach the city.

       Pursue your visions.

 

Stand speechless

While I watch your

Eyes travel

Until I’m sick

Starve me.

 

I want a hunger

That rivals the sun

In anger

I want a city.

 

Say a word.

           Watch me let it in

Slowly

Starve me

 

Stack stars

Until they’re magic

and leaning.

Use them to cross over.

 

         Send me stills

        Of a heart unguarded

        Like the mad sense

         Of a hatter

 

The flesh is an experience.

 

Deceive me with

Elegance

Annihilation and

Eyes that rob me of

Love

Every day: blue words swing by me

I nod my knots and spot clean

my soul ’til it’s gone

We will meet in Elysium.

Lullabyic hysteria

“It is too late,”

I said.

The fire is open.

Where is war when you need it?

We will meet in Elysium.

Lullabyic hysteria

I will play romance on

my violin until a thousand

dollars fills my case.

We can race the racetrack

until our lungs come back.

O, L. Reach out and try it.

Our cigars will still smoke

a hundred years later.

This is how the mad half lives.

“I lost my knife”, I heard the boy say. In my head I continued the conversation on my own by thinking: how strange, because I just felt it

thrust through my spine line, yes, yes, I’m fine, I’m just doing a little

Speaking. Because I don’t know where you are and because I have a love for you that bears no ending I’m not talking madness here, I’m not talking madness here —here I am talking madness, dear. Dear love if I could just KISS you awake each day that’d be enough for me. If I could I’d send you letters everyday so that you’d know how I miss you. How it hurts and how you fix me. You fix me and I love you. I love you and I love you.

Sleep now beautiful.

I think I am ready now.

Your touch,

you’ve changed the course of my breathing.

 

Breathe now beautiful.

This could be all of it,

right here. I thought

I was ready for a

tomorrow but now I

am not so sure.

But it is time.

Hold me now and closely.

Tighter now. I want to make sure

your beauty gets Stuck in my Sleep.

In my bones and in my tweaks

make me a habit.

Make it a

me.

Drive slowly now beautiful.

Not so fast – this is only a dream. I

don’t know how long it will be, but

I haven’t a worry, there’s no need

Listen

…you have killed me.

Everyone heard the gunshot. I don’t

know who heard us breathing.

Or us stopping.

 

Congratulations now beautiful.

We made a deal that we would die tonight.

Funny how I’ve never been so excited.

I refuse to say goodbye now beautiful.

Please, allow me to repeat step two. I

have a new fondness for the letter D now.

I didn’t know I had a problem but you’ve

solved it. Now I am just
