A Feather

 "A Feather"

Hold me with no restraint!
My wings last no longer.

The sea keeps reaching.
The winds tell secrets...

No escaping human apathy,
Patience has waited too long.

I slice my lover to this creed:
Love nothing in this world.

I pull mankind further out,
Sweeping it under a rug.

Under, sordid souls desire
To be blind and not naked.

Suffocated by human vanity,
Ah, here they remain long.

Dancing While Frozen



I want to...
I want to dance,
Play with fire, too.
I gave it one chance.
Bliss freezing, who?
They are in packages.
And wear light blue.
Lips and black lashes,
Bliss, in mourning dew.
I’d rather be ashes.
It's all about you.

The Vampire

In a queer dream
With a strange fellow,
He said forever be?
His teeth so feral…
I could not speak,
Only he to understand
Raised to be weak.
I can but slight stand.
Forever is tomorrow,
And the past is today.
Mimic time to borrow,
Let mortals fade away.
