This morning i

Rose and

Said goodbye

To my lonely

The one to

Count on to

“just be there’

To

Never “leave me

Alone!”

No, never leave

Me. alone

It won't

It won't

I rose

I say

Lonely's loving echoed

Haunting "long-walk" melodies and

Late night spliffs

That

Wrought

Rot

Wrought

Rot

Wrought

My

You! you en have nuh sense? is only a dog return to he vomit!

Mind

Walled in sage

Smoke my

Mind decayed

And reeked spinning rhythms

That made shadows

Skank and twist

Turn and shout

In to

The sound-stinking

Echo that again

Woke the day

The dream

Again

Re

Mem

Bering

A shifting slithering

Blackness that births

All

"i am no dog.”

Births all and stifles in

Smiling reflex

The reticent or forgiving

Quick

"i love you" she chirped and hugs

Squeezing

"...likewise" i responded

Gimply

These eyes don’t cry, and flesh don’t bleed

Burn baby, burn, and gimme what i need

In

Breast milk

In sunday school

In amoebic smoke christened

Swells

Rocking and pounding

In conversations

Artful exchanges in silence

Familiar’s violence

And in every

Knowing

"huh"

?

Or lover's gazes

Those shifting sands of sense or

Pretence or "act-now"ledgement

Or “just promise” or

"the hurt...i ..i...can't do this anymore."

It’s a

Skilled forgetting

A blind and goading and cloying

`you’re-so-beautifuls’ or

`i-need-you-so-much’s’

A missed wantings

Washed away in

Saturday-morning

Submission fucking

Position arrhythmic

Reflex

Shifting

`huh?’

`desire is the queen's gambit.’ the serpent hisses, shedding its sixth skin `it is really no more’

Yo, lonely lives in boomerang

Voices that

Can’t find ground

But fear sky,

Styll

These eyes don’t cry, and flesh don’t bleed

Burn baby, burn, and gimme what i need

These eyes don’t cry, and flesh don’t bleed

Burn baby, burn, and

I awake

And stare meekly into

Forever a mind choked

With `whys?’ and revealing and

Passion-bleached

False economy

Thoughts

Twisting crimsoned eyes hoping not

To see

Not see

Not to see

All the while

Feeling

...

I i look away

My reflection stammers

Panting heavy breaths

Misread redemption

Born-scorched, bone-bled songs of

A survival reflex

You know, her

Disembodied love ballads

Of die-nigga-die

Die nigga

Die

Die

`you’re what’s best in my life.’ she offers in blood-starched whisper

To the beat of

It won’t it won’t

The serpent sheds its seventh skin

A jagged tongue slices

The air

`but i need’ she say sharply `a better experience’

--

Lol. yeah

A-greed

So still

Lonely leaves me, alone

But finds me

Tempting

And teasing and in

Quiet reflex forgetting that

Never sets aright

Yo, its like love like

Lies

Nah. or

What’d i say?

Its like love like…

Wise

Yeah

These eyes don’t cry, flesh don’t bleed

Burn baby, burn, and gimme what i need

Look

I was talking about this

Mourning

This morning i

Arise, i mean

A-rose

To speak

And

To sing and

To weep

A blossomed

Farewell to

My lonely

I arose and walked alone

Into the blinding dream

Of

Goodbye

A thousand borrowed eyes watching

Memories mirroring

Shattered and

Colluding hopes

Thots stitch a reticent

Gossamer disgust;

And seeing all through infinity's

Unimaginable

Time-touch

`thank you for us. and i’ll always love you.’

The serpent just blinks

These eyes don't cry. this flesh don't bleed

Burn, baby burn, and gimme what i need --

Ah, but alas

!

Loneliness i could not see

She, she had abandoned, me

At last

At last

This mourning

Woke

To write the

Forever dream

It

Coiled in my soul

Held in its

Rubbery, oozing jaws

A black, black

Blackened rose

Annealed

Tongue

Kissing my thorns

The serpent spit forth seven years of

Knowing of loving

Of ` you. better’ of

Never again

Again

Again

Again

Again

Again

Again

Again

Again

Again

Again

Again

A-gain

A-gain

A-gain
