the venomous words
eject from a prickly tongue
the heart hides itself

the venomous words
eject from a prickly tongue
the heart hides itself


Danzig belts it out
my dark scrapbooks lay across
open to my life
i don’t need a soul
you as you have shown me that
love i divorce you

tears evaporate
leaving behind memories
i stand on wet sand

my back is my strength
i sit with the moon at might
we both speak softly
the thoughts are balled up
pulsating and cruel they come
tonight my eyes weep
supple
like
iron
words
hard
as
redwood
branches
hand
heavy
with
hate


we wish we could feed
those sad souls in need of love
their pain is too great


don’t fall to the ground
little honeysuckle bud
i’m not done sniffing

your kiss makes me wait
then forever you vanish
the flowers will bloom
