Sparklers
They smeared it all
Came for her soul to take all they could
They came to borrow some sugar but took it all
Like they saw a star and wanted to drain it
Take all the shine out of it
Make sure it stopped running with the moon
Undress it of all its magic
See how it operates naked and dressed
They saw all its beauty
They wanted a taste
Dance and tingle with it
But little did they know
It was made of magic
Made of so much magic it easily sparked
And its magic would explode
Making sounds so loud
They thought they might go deaf
They just weren't made of steel
Steel enough to withstand the explosion
Like fireworks BOOM BOOOM

Parasite
The rainbows never spread on my bread
as I swallow stars from my own sky.
Pockets full of graphite,
I am ionized in my own air
leaving traces 400 miles away.
The colors in my palms
changed from blue to red
as they touched your collarbone.
The litmus corrodes
into a rusty water gun,
you fire phosoporic acids.
The whites in me
have been particularly envious
of the greens in you.
My innocence always had a
chubby face but now
the skin falls off
when you pull my cheeks.
You start building trophies.

the rap-a-tap-tap of hearts beating in time
with sashaying feet,
slight caresses of fingers trailing down a waist,
swaying, serenading, seducing
it's way into puddles
of sheets and tangled legs
in an endless cosmos of time,
under shadows cast through
broken window panes and glass shards,
lips mapping volcanoes of explosions
in the little chasms of skin.
Mauves, greens, yellows,
garments of silk and cashmere and velvet
coming off sweaty bodies
questing like drunken devils searching for
bottles of wine using a bottle of wine,
and dreams follow the clothes
in lines screaming passion.

Liar
You're a liar
Your words,
Your appeasing look
Your smile;
Your touch.
You.
You
are
a world class liar.

A dent in the car becomes a rustic memory
A slight, almost touch on your lips still makes you breathless
The eye contact that lasted only a breath is the only imagine in front of your eyes.
The first contact you had with him,
Was on the day when it was raining
And you were leaving the classroom.
Someone had pissed you off for an idiotic reason.
And you put your guard up
Just because you wanted to have your moment and sulk as a kid
You almost forgot your umbrella that was lying on the chair in the corridor
And there he was
Making you wait
And watching your step.
Handing it to you
Believing with all his heart
That it's the most precious thing to you.
And that.
That's the kindest thing that happened that July.
And
that's the bond
You still remember
On a cold February night.
Like fresh paint on the wall
You;
high on that scent
Happy like a child.
Because it's fresh color
After the longest of the time.

I should have learned
I should have learned
To read the night sky
Constellations
Messaging me
Through the velvet blue
Orion burning on
Three times you let me see
That Virgo
Bent and needing rescue.
And those that came before us
Knew so much more
A multitude of burning discs
Shining on in cymatics
Vibrating with creation
Eminating epiphanies
Straight at us
Yet we do not see
We do not even
Raise our self centered heads to the sky
The abyss filled with light and sounds
So many questions
Already answered.
We are them and they are us
Points of light and song
If we are anything at all.
Astrologically speaking
There is so much more to see
Yet the ancients saw it all
Mapped it out
To show us their significance
And we look down on them
As they looked up
To see their inception
Their song of birth
Billions and billions and billions of worlds and more
Like Carl said
He wasn't wrong.
And I look up
At those mystical 3
Orion's belt has always
Mystified me
It beckoned and tempted and enticed my soul
Like a carrot on a stick
Who is it calling to me from there?
Across time's flat circle
That spiral round and round and then here we are right next to each other all along
A string of quantum theories
Played like a symphony
And I think its just me up there on that burning fire belt of frequencies
I think I'm calling to myself to see
Recognize
That we are all unique points of light and music
One and the same.
And we've been here and there and everywhere
At all moments
Always.
Its comforting to know
I'd still take the time to say hello
To myself from so far and yet so close.
Maybe I'll take some time
To learn to read our night sky.

Relic
Trapped in my own skin
I'm a relic in a museum
That's haunted by the past
Touched by some
Viewed by many
Maybe they're in awe
Because there's only a piece
Left of me.

Romanticism
I romanticised the clouds,
made them look bright.
I made sad look happy.

Explosions
Metamorphosis initiates, combustion throwing ember, harnessing an inebriating sorrowful pain.
Therein, Melancholy is not an adjective but the noun who replaced me.
Transitioning as a monochromatically plumaged pheonex ascending fragmented scorched boisterously wailing, "No!"
I did not die. Not yet.
Depression has leveled me, mercilessly razed into ghastly decrepit land consumed by humanity depleting and depreciating, I'm continuously expensed and finally eroded completely away.
Returning fiercely, a lapping Atlantic with previous life contained within every forcefully rolling wave.
Behold, marine entities coexisting peacefully depths below the briny surface of me, vexing of complexity conscious realms have yet explored, justifications unanimously outnumbered and unknown as to why we've brought destruction home.
So instead, I became known as Mother Earth, I am one with aqua jets, cold and roaring, violently crashing a spray of salt-laced water, plummeting eyes daring to take their gaze to mine.
Marvelously enchanting, mystical secretive creation, I amaze, curl myself along lips of all whom be parched.
Those feeble escaping humidity and heat brutal without my shore, they stoop to drink and I indulge them, replenishing.
Transcending, I'm now energy coursing through hydrated veins, en route highways to interstellar nations galaxies beyond.
Known only by species dormant though surviving along the creases of my left kidney, the extraterrestrials found to be symmetrical of all beings.
Such diligence in our waiting, waxing, waning, gaseous masses spinning feverously, anticipating the arrival of an explosively releasing flame?

I might be calm
With a smile
Dancing on my face.
But my pulse?
It tells a different story.

My walls won't break
like brittle rocks.
They will bleed
as the muscles tear themselves apart.
I won't shatter;
I'd get loose
and unravel,
like the skin
that leaves its bones.

Have you ever felt like
You're containing a storm inside of you?
That distant yet constant hum in your pulsing veins.
Somedays, it luls you to sleep.
On others;
You're afraid
That
All the tunes
Would explode on the piano
Destroying it along with them
And you won't be able to tell the difference
Between the ashes
Of the instrument
And what destroyed you.

I've galaxies of memories
Floating around
In my blood
Still living
A life inside me
All I see
Is the world outside of me
Your absence
Piercing my breath
Fueling the dying stars inside
To live a minute longer.

I told myself
I'd love again.
Then I hear your name,
and that promise is lost
in the wind
just as quickly
as your words dissolve
in thin air.

If Only
If only...If only she could hear the dynamite explosions in my body..
Alas ! The stethoscopes in her hand would know they are mere erratic heartbeats anyway.
