steam dissolved away
and revealed his hairy chest
clad in gold chiffon
Month: November 2019
Dreams
delicate are dreams
their substance untouchable
butterfly shadows
An Ancient Rain
It rained in Rome
for what seemed
a thousand years
and so much so
ancient fountains
wept
yet on the Spanish Steps
surrounded by flowers
she brought out the sun
Prophecy
the burning red sky
turning trees into prophets
the rain proved them false.
Velvet
this night is velvet
though not black as ebony
it sings songs in blue
Reveal
in leather and lace
play these dreams as masquerade
then all is revealed
untitled
two hearts hang on wires
still are they, their loves are lost
to blood spilled desire
Layers
my eyes undress you
each layer that falls away
reveals naked truths
Behind Glass
behind the glass
she calls to me
a thousand miles away
across the hills
beyond the sea
she lived another day
one in which
the world was gold
and troubles all are gone
as in this frame
her story’s told
before mine had begun
Water Music
the water dances
drops skip against her body
in a minuet
