she is but an echo

pale and light

from a distance
you see only the eyes
and nothing else

no more substantial
than a Mistral

you feel the same chill
each time she passes
through you

then the warmth
that you felt
when she first held you

filled you

now just a memory

"Well I feel sometimes like a little child
Lost in the words from the fading light
Is there no one who can help me find
My own way to the other side"

They didn't need to burn books. That part of the prophecy didn't come true.
The distraction of shiny pleasures, the crackle-pop hit of instant gratification; these intoxicants make it unnecessary to destroy knowledge.
It's simply ignored, made #illicit by our own minds.

Autumn will soon be declared officially dead. It did its best. Or at least existed. But the real headline is its successor. Not due for nine days yet already stomping and chilling around. Utterly unfazed. Frankly, even the paperwork has better manners.

The #successor to my book "Everything you wanted to know about ADHD, but were too distracted to learn" was "Sometimes you have to chase the Dopamine".

Don't ask me. Nobody knows.

I wasn't even around when they built that.

his #illicit desire
is velvet glove
and razor wire

when he touches
her softness
of eggshell

she bites his lip
drawing blood

There were still plenty of smugglers around that hadn’t joined the fight, but they weren’t Dylan’s problem. They could transport whatever #illicit cargo they pleased, he wasn’t the police. Now was he a smuggler anymore.

Which begged the question, what, in fact, was he now? Who was he?

Parts of the air
made illicit
to a well-being
if proximity's there -
a response elicited,
call it emotional
call it what you want.
More about the echo
of a feeling
like being scalded
because you let in wrong person
than that person
being worth the feeling.

she slipped
from behind the curtain
#illicit and unwelcome

shameless as the night
an unzipped dress

the moon’s blush
upon her bare skin

she was the voice
of the sun

the heat of unbridled sin
captured on her tongue

a fire that never dies
engulfing her body

when I can't cry
I want you to ask me
what has made me this way
what have I endured
what sun has scorched my tears

some stories are #illicit to recount

so, even if I can't appease your curiosity
please, don't judge me

for when I weep, my heart sheds tears

Writers belonging lies in thresholds of air. In doorways. In the halt. They root themselves in living & leaving. On the horizon that stings & the proximity that steadies. Their chosen ground is the almost illicit border where worlds blur. Or begin.

tiny white puffs
softly stand in formation

cool crystals
feathered across the blue

light refracts
two arcs as bookends
to that glowing orb
that warms us

I'm looking up
it's beautiful
magnificent
humbling in its vastness
it needs nothing

and yet I know
that you could even bewitch the sky

some days, your careless words or actions
hurt me to an inexplicable extent

on such occasions, I remind myself
of the reasons I was #bewitched by you

love isn't effortless always
it's a story starting from the happily ever after

My tormentor
Stands over me
Provocative,
#Bewitching

I’m a quivering
Mound of flesh-
Extremities
Still twitching

She’s made
The simple act of love
Deliciously
Addicting

This sorceress of sex
Has my soul trapped
In state
Conflicting

Lightning rises as a living force
that bewitched the sky
with burning lines
a dance of energy
that breaks silence
and makes the earth tremble
a light that does not only destroy
but also reveals
how nature shows its secrets
in a single moment
of pure truth

"You #bewitched me!"
"No," she replied. "I ensorcelled you."
"What's the difference?"
She spent over 4 hours explaining witchery vs. sorcery in great detail, long enough for her spell to wear off.
So I shot her.
It was a dirty trick, using her neurodivergence against her, but I was alive.

She would like to be the little girl again who skips rope, inventing a vault perfectly sized to the body that flips within it, bewitched by her own motion.

i enter a world without words

the fragrance of Laelia
and Camelia form a path to her

we speak not of love
but in colors
she in morning and mint
me in apricot and cinnabar

she's encased me
in a gilded cage
with lightly plucked harp notes

#bewitched me
tamed my wild bow
with soft regret
