Hi Ku Cat

autumn's been dark this year
muffled in constant cloud
sun stolen away, no ransom note included

instead

i spread my wings
bathe in the warmth of you
that radiates from heart, from head,
brightening my days
 
the salt marsh
is beautiful
when viewed from above
mud and brine transformed
to shining flats etched with fractals
patterns that glitter in the light of day
glimmer
beneath moon and stars

how far away it seems
how long
since first we sprang from soil
tiny rivulets
kissed by grass
trickled
as streams
counting gravel in our beds
swelled
cut through steep-banked valleys
fields of grain alike
felt the rush of power fed by rains
were spurred
by the knowledge of mortality

till we found pleasure
in taking just a little time
to meander in thought
reflect on blue or stormy skies
and how it feels to harbour precious
life that seems to open up
even as we're shaped by silt

till
here we are
spilled, joined,
contemplating beauty in our now
curling round
splitting into intricacies
delicate capillaries
before time and tide claim us
and we reach our endless sea

I laid on our bed, opened that red book
read 'til my eyes watered
chest grew tight
rolled over
turned out the light
your words a duvet to cover me

:heart::heart:

the skin on my hand
is not smooth or tight with youth
but tracing palm with fingertip
you tell the story of love come late
of a line the keeps right
on growing in longevity

A Palmistry student
should always read the heart line first,
know the proper amount of flush
a bun can hold
before dipping to the head line
searching for a simian crease
*shrugs*
way too late for me, busy day tomorrow
bon nuit cher

pop me in your pocket
with your keys and lists
i'll count the crumbs from forgotten cookies
as you hum, content, behind the wheel
scatter them on the blacktop
so we may watch the birds feed
for we need no trail to follow home
home is here
in our hearts

:heart:

Hope you enjoyed the ride,
'round the river to the other side,
rain slicked streets a caution to drive

Catfriend winks in the window, miao?
sure, just let me find my shoes
I'll fill that dish back up for you

Up the stairs to the studio
under a tin roof
paint me, sleepy as rain drums down
artist hums, model gasps
 
your tray's overbrimming
with messages clumped and needing sifting
toss out the lumps

till then:

*lifts covers, pats bed* c'mere, let's make like hamsters :kiss::kiss::kiss:

*folds arms about you, holding you safe in sleepy backwater eddies*

:heart:

Chalice of Life

Chalice of life




Sainted in time
The sanctified lie
Etched upon lips

The secret side
Betrayed fatality
Enduring malice

Flesh and blood
Sin and soul
Corrosive shame

Abase myself
Caustic taint
Forlorn soul

Nefarious pain
In vitiate of self
Ominous distain

A life no more
In hate born
Forever torn

Chalice of life
Bound and kept
Eternal demise

A Kiss

A Kiss



Obsessions burning
By candlelight’s
Open fire
In the darkness
Of the night
Sweet sensations
Dreams and desires
Tainted things
Essences of flesh
Temptations met
Enticed in
Lustful needs
Yearning souls
Playful wishes
Devouring touches
Captured kisses
Heartbeats racing
Loving embraces
Rhythmic swaying
Panting whispers
Lovers dancing
Caressing souls
Heart and mind
Entwined in
Moment’s passion
Entangled bodies
Heated senses
Spirits raging
Connecting
Feeling
Wanting
Releasing
Sweet blessed
Ecstasy
Heavens bliss
In sexual
Wetness
Sealed in
A kiss
 
Mary Chalice whispered, C'mere you big lunk.
kneel down beside me, say your rosary
while I pretend to say mine
n the first words out of my mouth
Oh hell, mary
 
I survived a rain of rhymes this morn'
snoozed through the worst of the deluge
and now that the splatters slacken, abate,
and a dash to the kitchen arrives
relatively dry
 
what a shameful week
all I've done is
eat, eat, eat,
pies, cookies, chicken an dressing
one holiday down,
one to go

they say
count your blessings
and it sounds like you
first shucked your socks
then brought out the abacus
to help with the task

:kiss:
 
spooned, arm in arms
nested noses n teasing toe'ses
lazy limbs, shifting skin
moving like a time lapse photograph
of a flower starting to bloom
when moon turns to noon

this gave rise to a little gasp of pleasure - such pictures! :heart:

quite beautiful! all of it *nods*

*re-reads*

reallyreally like 'lazy limbs, shifting skins' and the visuals of time lapse fo-tography, flowers opening, the changing light

omg.

one more reason to love you even more. :eek::heart:
