recuseive

cut myself on your sink, bright red lip on repeat, drip soft. we sync and sway, un- steady; ragged and precious, breath dragged up from lakebeds. lavish, this failure. how magic is dovetailing perfectly with glittering lacerations. if sunlight were damage, we’d bleed.

patterns upon freshly-packed earth

cleverly cover me in cacophony; no noise like new noise and incessant slaughtering. of the past i have only echoes, errors in codependent coddling and coughing-up-of-truths. winds fast as years whip the visage, we—as the missives—weep in willowing speech and stuttered stabs. infection in the memories blossom into debt. and as ever you watch your step.

(drag to) trash

you can color me as deadly as a neck kiss; dawn splits open old rifts healed since forever ago. wince, it's never a slow steady, instead it's a kris splattered and stabbing again. evidence of mattering once inches into the skull. prints left like disowning the throne, fists pound upon a hollow chest, misapplication of cholera tests. check for a p ossibility, pray solemnly nothing is kept hidden; dulled vision begets stars exploding, pulsars stroping long around genesis necks. paint your lips and let those wry damages stretch, a mast repeats sirenic dissent: i, the love, am only a wretch. fuck off, it's only a death knell in my lungs incessant bleeding. sail wide, and check for a p illowy breast, i'm more pillory. terror in twenty second sheets, a dangerous artillery destined to bring decimation. don't combat my estimation, i've been watching myself evolve into a fucking wastebin.

xxx. vigorous

and in thirty days you’ve flourished, bloomed through the cracks of despair, pushed ivy through the unfair facade, pressured god to create what he lacks, and kissed flames; an ashen tongue shattering old mirrors and twisting new galaxies, you. it was not easy. those reflections echoed through your veins, excavated your fears and false steps. you stared down parched skies and parchment left blank. you reign in dried ink and visions of may- yet-become. a spire constructed of bleached bone, dead pixels, and hoarse speech, you. fail or not, you remain a truth.

cross me off like a nightmare; i've been asphyxiating for some years now. here's how it goes: i seem to grow from bright seeds into an orchard but in reality i'm still the same dead earth. it can feel like hurt, to watch me squander more life than some know; i assure you it's only apathy. i can't pretend to be a craftsman, a captivation, a creed and still feel my sleep find purchase. i know i'm worth less than these pixels, not even a breath. the abyss doesn't gaze at all. there are no eyes to witness any plodding steps, much less the breadth of a life. what a dream, to have meaning. i believe you should cross me off like a nightmare; i've be

wondertow

perhaps love is meant to end. love opens one's eyes and mind to hope, validation, presence; meaning should exist before, during, after else one be lost in a sea of throwing-up-hands and mirrors smoked. tears are choked back often, smeared journal entries erode over time to be faint scars; we are libraries of guilt and apprehension stacked past icarus' wonder. once your fangs grow you're in the bite, only right to taste a throat or two before you file them away like wildflowers between pages of a book you will bury in dust. perhaps love is meant to remind us of kindness offered, of striving to be more, of how we know ourselves when we feel blessed, of coughing up beauty like stars aligned with expectations. and then, as a candle at dawn, let go.

what does it mean to be deserving of a purpose? is anybody even worth it? are our bodies fucking purchased by some deity that searches out the best and brightest wallets and then swallows them without an inch of malice? i thought it'd be the chalice with the poison, but the boys are all harrowed by my deforming marrow and skin turned pale. it's a challenge just to speak, but in feeble syllables i draw a line from cold feet to a brain quite damaged. goddamn it's so weak to be writing, to keep on writhing when you peaked back when everyone could see, back when nightmares didn't seep into every sleeping moment. is atonement just the fucking up

lover there are too many truths brimming in you, eager;   even when you inhale there are mercies spilling over bright, split lips like water from an eclipsed moon or the side of a martyr, you bloom with grace. let me lie deep in your garden, brooding forever in lilac kiss. showered in petal lace   ivy deep in the veins, you grip each ending nerves full aflame. lately, i sleep while you wander.

ouroboros

I turned the insides and upped the anti- bodies. Burned the skin and usurped the antegodly. Stepped in haughty and burst the veins. Steeped in naughtiness and lusting feints. I leave a trail of dissolving courses, weaving a dark tail involving corpses. A blood bright tapestry of violent twine. A floodlight mastery of guided spines. I vomit meaning and swallow life. And I am ever following behind.

now we are glittered across the universe, set to drift around stars (and ages from now, into hearts) from the earth to the jewel of the skies then to dust and decay and a shaking in shattering silence most of us fall into glamorous orbits, twenty trillion turns about a planet golden; brilliance morbid with a history never told and some of us marry the constellations; burned in the starshine as lovers in fields vow their love will outlast what consumes us and a few of us return without notice or ceremony; in fact only one set of eyes takes heed, focusing not on the loss but the rarity thus an old greed begets a

a cutout

all the earth's prescription meets all of her suspicions. she calls the dirt to listen as fallen leaves are twisted. the rule of gravity does fool her, gradually. unspooled, her calves and knees accrue all casualties. her hands breach sediment to scan for meaning left. in sand, the beach is spent demanding sea's relent. she never asked for much; a breath, a glance, a touch. her severed stance somewhat etheric and nonesuch.

I don't give anything for rules; I don't give so much as a damn. I'm standing up to this world to let it know just who I am. I've got a shatter inside, and endless ways to get it out. So many ways to destroy, more ways than any man can count. He was so skilled with creation, I suppose that's why I'm here. Another plan he designed, another thought he engineered. The city called out his name and he would not ignore its wants. He reached for Parallels East, leaving a mother to her sons. I don't give anything for life; my family's strife I can't forgive. He left her sobbing on the porch, he left us screaming in the crib. I bro

In time predicates predictated return rule to subjects. Thus emergence cleanses and uncertain palms gain confidence.
