To all the chewy chocolate that’s ‘tween my teeth, to the tears o’ stormy clouds both sour & sweet, to early evenings’ smeared lemon restless lights, to bus wheels’ jingling thunder-struck keys on kites, to flapping jackets that make the cool winds warm, to clapping firs both ecstatic & forlorn, to the tea & coffee […]
Accompanying music. Heralding the rainy fall, spotted aliens, you bring color to this misty pall, dancing, happy, moldy springs, mixing well with jungle drops that humidifies the air elsewise empty. E’en when not eating you, you taste o’ pears. Bounce me to the magic kingdom, teach me songs so I can sing them— all that […]
Accompanying music. Forest firs, please, don’t you ever stop being bed-headed in the sniffling wind; squeeze out your fur the shower-fed drops rainbow in the sun & just as tickling. Both in heat & chill, your bark, it barks with emboss & bevel, home to so many worms & birds in many parks, wake in […]
Accompanying music. Soft caress against my swollen tongue, so sticky, O so sweet, smells like honeyed springtime pollen, tastes like roasted coffee beans. Friends with butter, bread, & jelly, but best friends with creamy chocolate; but just ‘lone it still fills bellies: scrape a spoon & take a long lick. In the time the pantry’s […]
Accompanying music. I know that you taste just like lemon heads or gummy worms; your bright stars with just 1 bite blow up in raspberry bursts. Drink up all your empty black, drown myself in cherry cola; don’t care if I rot with plaque— my sole hope is super nova. Then I’ve eaten all the […]
Accompanying music. You’ve been passing round my ears since I was in kindergarten, always growling soothing cheers in your warblin’ Martian garblin’. What’s the song you sing today? Not the same as years ago, though all share the calming waves, many single-showing shows. Who are you under those hoods? On to work or buying goods? […]
Accompanying music. Is it gray or is it blue? Leaves between both black & green. Sunny’s shift is ending soon. Zephyrs scurry up my sleeve. Feel a tingling in my chest. Minutes pass without a thing. Papers lying with the rest. I just want to catch the seas. Now I see some purple there. Still […]
Accompanying music Feeding thirsty leaves, the grapes paint the concrete oily yellow; & they keep unique pastel glow e’en when wrinkled by dry age. Get’n to business pecks the crow, front & back, that beaky drummer; no concern that e’en in summer faded mountains still smell like snow. But that sun was far too distance; […]
Accompanying music. I can taste the bloody iron in your sticky spinach clinging to the rocks, your simple sirens, though its your leaves that are singing. There is safety in remains, memories o’ wine-sweet bliss; ride on waves, on ships, on chains, green all that is colorless. Still you cling to my gray shoes; though […]
What a waste. Without a taste, stretching out for help, but found none in suns on yellow days, frowning drowning pastel clown. Nothing’s sweat in salty tears, only smeared & only itchy make up made up of those years— dark, & yet they still bewitch me. Dump you down my creaky drain, please remind me […]
