out of focus


everything's muddled in the
middle
and the smudged edges of
the mirror now plague me

those undefined forms of
self that lie on the periphery
seemingly always intangible,
always circumnavigating

I want to see past my own
reflection into other things.
there's clarity in the darkness
once you get there

but there is such a long way
off and out of focus.
I need to make sense of what's
here, what's in front of me

some semblance


some slight semblance of god
out there on the horizon
in cloud patterns and maneuverings
and things lost in translation

out there on the horizon
there’s a familiar sense of mutation
and things lost in translation
behind the eye of the beholder

there’s a familiar sense of mutation
in every chosen disobedience
behind the eye of the beholder
swells malignancy and comfort

in every chosen disobedience
in every dissident’s configuration
swells malignancy and comfort
and some semblance of a god

winds of wishes



are we of those

glowing sparks


the most of whitened 

wishes in the wind


the slightest of touches

exaggerated...


bear with me, this,

the longest April.


shall we unite

in a forever bond


shall we give forward

our offspring, Pleasure


pushing and pulling out 

the gush of Love


something dear and true,

something to be cradled


or be saddened with the

deflation of two hearts


that have expired into those

winds of wishes...


the well of myself 

has become

deeper than I'd imagined
