You fell into my center.









I was spinning,
it was true,
You were that thing
flung into my gears...

You said I was a tchotchky,
You treated me as though
I was the trophy
of your win.

But it was You who fell,
no, jumped off of the mantle.

You broke us both.

When You fell into my center.

you said,

say that.

say that
one week from now.

find me.

find me.

find my hair.
black on brown.
find my eyes.
brown on jade.
find my soul.
jade on red.
find my skin.
red on white.
find my heart.
white on black.

it's been one week.

in the black,

i say,

find me.

i saw you drive by
my house as i was watching
both of us stalkers

don't worry yourself
i'll play chess and sing with her
while you're gone to sea

the colosseum
you will tear yourself apart
graceless martyrdom

it still fucks me up
when i step on bubble wrap
alone in the dark

imagine yourself
imagine you with nothing
imagine nothing

strange the dream i had 

of a japanese monkey

from a raven birthed

You Know Who You Are

Catch a thousand kisses.
I've sent them on the wind.

When I say that what I really want
is waterproof thigh~highs
in the desert...

Forbid the still.
Forbid the sun.

Until my pouting lips
are close enough
to prove to You,

my love,

the weather.

They Said They Said

"Where did she go?"

They said, they said.

Into her heart, and then her head.

"I live here all alone, you see...
where no~one tells me good from bad."

"And when I cry...
Or if I'm sad,
No~one says, 'I said, I said.' "

Of Love And Other Demons

It's so very very cold in here.
I think I'm bleeding way too much.
I've crawled to where I think the opening is.
It's always blocked and wrong.

They've left moxa on my eyes.
Burning, burning, through the lids.
Curling flaming flesh like silk,
Where the cigarette has touched it.

And now I'm dancing for the money.
My sailor's hat is jaunty but I hate you.
I crucify their want~me succubus,
by standing through their sticky palms.
Wear stiletto heels.

My Dreams.
My Dreams...
They scare you.
And now you tell me, "Hush you up."

My Heart.

My Dreams.
My Dreams...
They haunt you reach you.
And now you force me take a pill.

My Mind.

My Dreams.
My Dreams...
They make you love me.

"Bless me, Father, I have sinned."

You chain me to the bed.

My Sex.

My Dreams.
My Dreams...
They shock you.

My Soul.

You shock me.
