never together and 2 others, poems c. 2016

feat. that two line stanza at the top by my mother's husband

also feat. my little koala magnet I owned until it was savaged by my cat



never together


they were friends -- mad on

the thousand languages of delirious

wanting tongues

drunk by cool lake water she

pictures still the rose garden

what death blows through like

rain -- please go


it's like black blood beneath a soar*

spring dream

the sun barely recalled her moon

no time willingly stops after all


 

one summer storm drives honey to the purple sky

yet as lazy love suited their smooth seas

those we watch whisper

shine in sweet lies of worship

who

is

not

asleep


 


*I'm fairly certain that either there is a magnet missing here or 'soar' isn't supposed to be there, either way, I have no idea what that is supposed to say. Although 'one summer storm' doesn't make more sense than this broken line, so what does it really matter
