love's been little bit hard on me

no longer
angel of the morning, angel
no longer
goodbye goodluck girl
no more
electric demons breathing fire


You had a hold on me right from the start...

Nirvana et le petite morte
she'd reach, intense the touch
always too deep perhaps
though the surface dwelt
fire tactile and free
boundaries predetermined

This is not unlike the others yet
underlying there is a stillness
calm her heart beats
fire not but embers glowing

caged, her heart thrums
no bounds she knows
into the mouth of madness
toward the unknown falling.

"I say I don't love you, but you know I'm a liar" ~ The Pointer Sisters, Fire

Four weeks since July 31, 2017

la dolce vita

we stop to eat slowly
words and more words
laughter and more laughter

film forgotten on the big screen
not three feet away
relegated to the odd glance
until sleep beckons and flesh
is too tired to think after
hours lingering, touching, legs akimbo
hours of fingertips falling gently


living la dolce vita
she slips into the halflight
hand on slim hip spooning

drunk on kombucha

drunk on kombucha
early in the day
or is it love?
the admittance of a
quite probably high
and hefty crush
lingering...

Her inquiring heart wants

to know…

slow ride

somewhere somehow
in the shucking of jive for coin
she forgot she writes
