Prism

Rainbow veil.
Butterfly-kissed rain.

Eyes, prisms
refract love

Butterfly-kissed rain.
Mist sink in.

Dreams make love.
Every atom
of being.

List

The list
is on the table.
Beside the lamp,
in the foyer.
Where shades merge unto
the polished furniture.


Tunnels seek habitual paths.
The lost pet
wanders back home,
the idiot's hat.

Recalling.

This is his third attempt.
Precisely.
Because it failed.
Turns out that the knife
he used to slash his wrist was
Blunt.

The second attempt.
Precisely.
Because it failed.
Turns out that the lake
he fearlessly plummeted to
was deceptively
Shallow.

The beginners attempt.
Precisely.
Because it failed.
Turns out that the beam
he hung from,
the termites had drained
Fickle

And so here he is,
opening the medicine cabinet.
The anti-depressant affecting a smile.
Sweet pill,endure the journey
through his insides.
For a little while.

After Today

After today,
After this deed is done,
I will go some place.

No,not to a misanthrope's
retreat by the woods.
No,not to a lakefront house
by the mountains.
But buy myself, a flat
with many rooms.

Relativity

Pain,
is relative.
They say.

True.
But,my pain
is my dear
friend.

The Excuse

I like
your stubborn curls.
I like
your secret lips.

They invite me
like the night.

I like
the exuberant rusty
chrysanthemums,the pansies
and the magenta rich  petunias

Do not withhold
a visit saying,
"But these are not
in your flower-bed. "

Head Ache

 
Head ache
That's an emotion too...

The mind insulated.
The soul insulated.
Eyes pushed
into the cranium.
Echoes
disrupt
the head ache.
