Any Lover

I was woken early by thunderstorms vibrating in my head, my own dreams quiet, content but crazy busy trying to keep people at bay. I lost sight of you; forgot your breath and the blue of your dark soft eyes. Finally alone, not lonely but by myself between the once lovely pink flowing Celestine dreams [...]

my refrigerator has magnets

He is gone after we were together, friendly fiddle player with fast feet. ————————– In his pink dress behind enormous shadows and misty music a blood storm robes him in love. ————————– Sleeping, gorgeous white heavy and deliriously mean she screams a thousand ugly knives and sprays those who crush her. ————————– You are a [...]

He looked at me from across the room. He looked and held my eyes in his mouth for days until he got the nerve to talk to me. I touched his tattoo in progress swimming up his forearm. I kissed his lips ripe with turkish smoke and ashes. He wrapped his arms around my head [...]

purple heart

the Seersucker Suit

A reflection times four through waterfalls and windowpanes. You in a seersucker suit sitting on a blue bench with no teeth and a funny finger. The first kiss of a leaf touches the ground and laughs at You in a seersucker suit resting on a cloud with dreams of hours lost and wildflowers. ~ 1996

saliva

Nestled like nuts in winter at the corners of my mouth. warm swirls under my tongue deep like the black bottom of a pool in summer, waiting for me to spit on you. ~ 1997

A Map

A guy once kissed my toes and in between them, the maps of my feet telling him of my travels. My eyes closed to follow who I was and where I had been. At that moment, life was the road I walk and sex lived in my big toe. ~ 1997

Piece of Clay

Maybe I am a boy in a room outside looking like nothing other than master of arithmetic or a stupid fool. Maybe I am a boy under the table laughing in your face at the things I do to make you squirm. Maybe I am a boy at Niagra Falls sliding down my hips to [...]
