and from the rupture
that was breaking our hearts
we came forth clean again, naked,
loving each other
without dream, without sand,
complete and radiant,
sealed by fire.
-Pablo Neruda, The Dream
Pinned
luxuriating in you,
your quiescent bliss

open mouth salivating
purring with each drunken kiss

feeding on your holy flesh,
licking heart wounds clean

bathing in baptismal blood
ascending into a dream

hand in hand, we are skipping along,
a path made of stone~

dreaming our lives
in black and white
are we happy with the mediocre?

No.

can we bring it back to life?

...partially dead, your heart
wants to beat again~

we have a list; let's not consider the bucket just yet...

love lies bleeding on the vine
heartache harrowing
soulbound silver cords combined
star-crossed lovers knot entwined

November : 🍂

Watching leaves falling,
Lost love’s embers, … remembered-
First one, … another ~

drifting, bathed in tears
ghostly presence harrowing
dreamtime life endeared
lustful tongue salted burning
waking lonely, aged by years

If you'd like to read it, I wrote a short story yesterday. It only takes about 4 minutes to read (or less). [No need to leave Bluesky to read it.]
