Eternity

I caught the sunset early today, sailing

on blood-red whiskey waves

with you.

We flayed the world open, like

the white and breathing moon....

I held you

high above the churning, burning

tide, sycamores danced in our

milky-way sky.


At sunset the world departed and I,

to never see you again.

rain

The rain you couldn't see or taste or

touch

was in your eyes, a vapid, vaporous

gray

Death-flavored muses.... There was a time in easter when

the world was lit with pyres,

you wanted to be one of them

but the nail polish got in the way.

Its a silly,

silly

life out there

she whispered from her pedestal.

Just turn and walk away.
