chew and choke
as i run through the same halls
always ankle-deep in murky water
can never tell if i'm running to or from
a who or a what
opening doors to a room i've visited
sitting on a desk i've escaped
it's blurry
and then i burst into the sun
bad bubble gum dreams
/
elysium
/
there is bliss even in the very heart of the realm of hades.
for the mournful weary.
i imagine ice buckets on windy balconies.
knees touching.
neglect and indifference turn a soul to stone.
some things are easier sung than said

margaritaville
salty rim
no umbrella, just a straw
lime
lemon
gritty zing scorching my throat
one sip
i gulp hard
two glasses now
i hear laughing
need to turn my head
have to look for that sound
floating
dazed
numb
three
four
my fingers touch my cheek
lips sore from smiling
and the laughter bubbles up to the brim
from me
let's toast on the fifth
it's me laughing
as i drown
drown in my drink
vintage angst
/
white car
drives past
tires tread
on an old love shunned
by you who sits
staring straight ahead
at a destination
that will now be reached alone
liquid crystal,
doing a slow dance.
on the invisible barrier
separating indoors from outdoors.
its smooth tango,
reminds me of a tune
once hummed a lot,
but now lost
in a choking throat.
why is my cheek wet,
when the rain is outside?
cardboard cutout, folded wrapper
crumpled heart tossed out the window
but like a paper crane...
i
choose
to
fly
Surreality
/
moonrise to my rightsunset to my left
i'm caught in between
a time neither day or night
i'm caught in between
a time neither day or night
awed
luna ascending
bidding helios goodnight
her pearl cloak edged in his champagne paths
i stare at them
forgetting to breathe
bobbing in the waves
deciding who i think is more beautiful today
but no one wins
better to sink into the aqua ice
watch shadows play
perhaps tomorrow
i'll know

Orion

is covered by hazy clouds.
i squint at the inky black ceiling of the world,
dig my toes into the cold, fine, white sand.
my ears don't sift any of the words,
they wash over me...
like the scent of powder and beer.
