Molecules

Love and madness
Risqué interlude wafting like plumeria perfume
Inhaled deep, like a rogue cigarette steeped in mace and cinnamon
Honeyed arsenic swirling through long-stemmed veins
Poison sweet like cherry brandy on drunk-plumped lips…
Beneath the last cadaver moon
This kiss of dread consumes the universe –
As beloved darkness inhales the stars and spits out woe
Funnel clouds writhe and wring out musky sighs
Molecules hissing and imploding like popcorn stars…
The savage assemblage of raw desire; Passions crashing birth, as barren eyes collide –
Twist and tangle with each others naked shadows
Vexing the gods
Enchanting the night creatures
Rapturous delight in almond-green, feline eyes
Slinky, prowling, familiar mystery
Claws that carve ornate galaxies down your spine –
Purring pretty obscenities…
Slurring wanton tendencies…
Licking love mark confessions –
Decadent rogue tattoos…
Fingers wrapped in silky hair; Pulling
Like untying a crimson ribbon on a pretty package
Worship beneath the tall fir ones, their thready arms reaching
To set the candlelight stars to flame
Mountain medicine and mysticism in your arms
Fire warriors dancing in your eyes
Muerte dulce beneath a star flower sky…
Poppy red fields with dandelion eyes, as midnight sun evicts twilight plumes –
Dragging our dark into the light, from its velvet tomb
Our bones stand on the fringe; Constricted shadows of poet ghosts on the horizon

Warriors
Dead words; Ink and mind ran dry
Perhaps your merlot kiss will tease words from me
That make demons melt and angels sigh

I need barbed wire, knife, and careless deed
Pelting rain and grey brush strokes across the sky
Bring me your cruel and bitter scars
And those distorted acid eyes –
Come scrape and mark me with your bite
Bring me your demons drenched in tar
Lets take our time with pain tonight
Ah yes my darling, there you are…
Until the next cadaver moon –
Where crowberry, briar and potion bloom
Where throaty moans and slippery skin devour shame in favor of
What dark remains
And sweetly stains, my love
