i see diamonds
flash from the corners
of your mouth
perhaps they’re not jewels
but they sparkle
and entrance me nontheless
I do believe
you’ve got me
already
now how long
till we both know
oh stranger
stop being
foreign to me

I watch you
knowing how creepy I must seem
but I can’t help it
I adore you
I always have
and I probably always will
I made a vase full of flowers once
and they died inside my fridge
for a date we never had
and someday
when I’m back in town
and you’re in my life once more
I’ll ask you on that date again
and I’ll make you another vase
full of flowers
and...

my love for you is not a beautiful gem
it is not a glorious stone forged by chance
and pressure
my love for you is not a star dying
it is not a burst of light
and energy
my love for you is like sand
simple
innumerable
and time weathered

i cannot remember my dreams
i have tried to grasp at them
and pull back only glimpses
of you

where are you?
i am still waiting
for you to arrive
for the first time
or again
i was never sure
i know only
that i
wait

we are constantly defeated
by our own desires
beaten down by our primal urges
we bow to the might of want
overbearing and blinding hunger
that drives us to take what we know
will burn us
what we know will leave us hollow
and thirsty for
affection
for
something
more
just once more
and surely our addiction
will be satiated for one more moment
but we’re gluttons
greedy

nothing I do
will fix it
I can’t cure it
I can just sit by
and watch it take
from you
your wants
and dreams
I have to watch the monster
devour
you
and all your being
but there are no weapons
to slay
your disease
lest I’d take arms
and fight
but all I have
is love
and I wield it proud
but that seems
more and more
never enough

the true enemy
is buried deep within you

you are
the result
of all those
wounds
that love
and life
and lessons
have carved into
and out of
you
stand proud
you bag of bones
hopes
and memories
life is still here
you are still breathing
and love is always hunting
to live full
is to be scarred
so go forth
and be injured
just so that you may
recover

I see you stumble to and fro
you poor thing
where did your caretaker go?
take my hand
and we’ll make it to the loo
for I know in my heart
that we can’t leave this task up to you
I’ll wait by the door
for you to be done
then I’ll close out your tab
bid you adieu and go have some more fun

let’s plan
a revolution
let’s plot out
a way to overthrow
every wrong system
then forget every solution
we came up with
while we snog

somewhere
in the infinite expanses
of human interactions
there is an embrace
waiting to engulf you
in its affection
take solace in this,
love is only so many sojourns
away
just a few more pieces of time
till you can sleep
in calm rapture

it’s because of pagans
not jesus
I want to explain to you
the idea of what a pentagram
is
of why the tree is a fir
or any other myriad of traditions
that your religion stole
in order to suck all the other ones
up
but I know
what a deaf ear is
judging by your tone
insistence we change our happy holiday signs
for the baby jesus
and a few other not so subtle hints
your favorite...

Poets to come! orators, singers, musicians to come! Not to-day is to justify me and answer what I am for, But you, a new brood, native, athletic, continental, greater than before known, Arouse! for you must justify me.
