saturnalian solstice

[The Wanderer]

head, like a vacuum
tangled in tongues
bitten and bleeding
between, satori lips
sand slips thru...

electrical soft embrace,
a diamond crush,
of unripe perfection
your loving spoon,
your candy-striped swoon...

distortions sway my veins
they say your fate
and you crumble away
littered in the irony
of a silent night

ruptured birth,
like a bloated faucet
that drips from your mouth

a beach beneath the ocean
layered by your touch
and the symmetry of the sea

and as it parts,
you feel it moisten
with the grip of fresh rain
and life is replenished

 

[brettig]

bits of this feel like one Michael Stipe couldve wrote them

your loving spoon,
your candy-striped swoon...

 

[BabyGrace]

your writing can be so grotesque and beautiful at the same time; I don't really understand how so but I love it

the last two lines of this bring sudden refreshment to the hot stickiness of this poem... another incredible piece by an amazing poet.

 

[zooropamanda]

a beach beneath the ocean
layered by your touch
and the symmetry of the sea

and as it parts,
you feel it moisten
with the grip of fresh rain
and life is replenished

i refuse to disect this one

 

[ACROB@T]

distortions sway my veins
they say your fate
and you crumble away
littered in the irony
of a silent night

between, satori lips
sand slips thru...
