My Dreams Shamlessly Inspire
My dreams shamelessly inspire,
My beauty shamelessly causes desire,
My truth causes exasperation
My kindness causes hesitation.
I never play the others’ roles,
I never sing the others’ songs.
Why should I sew up the others’ holes?
My mind only to me belongs.
I never play, I never pretend,
I am inspired by my love and live on the Land.
I fall in love agai...

It is time to get up.
Airport.
Shower – I use the woman’s fancy shampoo.
Toothpaste, lotion, brush; done – in the black hygiene bag.
The woman enters the bedroom to check on me, “You have everything?”
“Yes,” I say, “I think so; if I leave anything, you could send it to me?”
“Yes, of course.”
“Okay,” I say. She walks to the kitchen and sits down softly with ...

The Lonely Willow
Willow’s over the river
A tear quietly drops
She is too tired to shiver,
I wasn’t born in a thicket.
No one is around here
No one to embrace…
Only the wind has found her.
Is she in such disgrace?
How hard it is for the willow
To stay here all alone,
Looking at the swallow,
Which all the trees know.
She has no one to talk with,
There is no one i...

The Cathedral
Father told me, when i was young, that his mother told him ‘if you can fit pinky to thumb around your wrist you are too thin’. When I managed to grasp my arm half way up, pinky to my thumb, I saw success. It’s hard to see sadness when you are sick. Mother taught me forgiveness was not earnt, but expected. So, when you lied to me I knew what I was to do next.
The cathedral was o...

Claws of Love, Kiss of Death
Hand reach into my throat,
clawing their way to my heart.
Red blooms under their attention,
as they slither through this maze
of veins and vessels.
Slick hands grab ahold of my still heart,
squeezing it manually.
Once, twice, thrice,
a soothing rhythm in a space,
long devoid of music.
Yet, no amount of squeezing
is enough to make my heart start beating.
No amoun...

I Lived and Believed in a Fairy Tale
They laugh at me because I live in tales,
And he plays with you and then he sails.
And I follow him without any fear.
He loves me and I can this love bear.
I love him truly and with all my heart,
I cannot stand to live apart.
I can withstand any difficult test,
And I promise God to be the best.
They laughed and said: He is not your dear.
It would be better if you had ...

Face in the crowd
I pick your face out from the crowd
And you're all I can see
As we pretend to be strangers
I waited the one hour train journey
Hoping you would join me
But you never did
We remained separated by a single carriage
Little did I know you had far more in your arsenal to separate us
A Trident like deterrent
How did it come to this?
Well actually I do know the answer...

rollout window in the loft of a garden suite (06/10/2024)
a loft
somewhere
sweetly scented
as the morning dew draws up
and out
lithe against valleys
hung low
loping chariots
phantom fingers in grass
long and sweetlike lovers waving
in the wheat.
it looks like rain again tonight
hues heavy on the bay
but my heart will stay sated
thru the gold nestled in your eyelashes
and I stop breathing,
hoping it can be forever
to w...

Soul trickery
Two different souls
Two independent individuals
Two souls brought together
That were supposed to be equals
Two souls that found
Understanding on the other
Or that's what I though
Because I was only just fodder
I was happy to talk
I was happy to be me
I was happy for the future
That i wanted to see
I invested myself
In a possible relation
Try...

The Lion Queen
I must go down to the sea again, to the Lion Man and his shack
To follow the Lion Queen again on her sand blown, rocky track
To hear the heaving ocean, Breakers thundering on the shore
Where the whale bones bleach under pitiless skies
And the wind whispers “never more”
Never more to the Queen of the lion clan
Who bestrode these shattered wastes
Oblivious to the eyes of the man
All alon...

Day 2
"idk, but we can try"
what does that mean?
and why do you continue to
contact me?
W H Y ?
you said you want NO ONE.
then that includes me,
my time,
my love,
my care,
and my company.
If you want to be truly free,
then be free without
any parts of me.
so i did not respond,
but i am tempted.
how would that work?
how would we......
how ...

Titchfields
So soft and new
Soft babies brewed
For months waited
Excited and anticipated
You are not mine
Yet close enough to build a shrine
Encompassing a wonder and love for you
Looking forward to meeting you two
Dinosaurs, mittens and tiny onesies await
Cute hats and warm baths you'll hate
A warmth of well wishes and love in abundance
To tuck you in and bathe in t...

Day 1
Yesterday, was day one.
A day of being alone,
thinking.
Thinking about how my mind
has yet to understand what happened.
what makes you everything they want,
but not wanted at the same time.
what is it?
for someone to bring you in on their journey,
then blame the journey for the reason
they no longer need you .
they need freedom,

I Am the Happiest One On This Land,
I am the happiest one on this land,
Even if sometimes I feel sad,
I remember the day you gave me your hand,
And became the most adorable lad.
It took me so long to find the only one.
Before I breathed the dust of human vanity,
How many I met those who just had fun!
Without even a hint to humanity.
I can't express myself in words,
It's hard to find the righ...
