sprigs of daffodils, away

 

 

 

sprigs of daffodils, hung loosely from her hands

            as she wandered

                                    aimlessly

                                    almost mindlessly

                           towards me

            the stems dangling lifelessly

                        as if feet down from a wire

                                                            or a coiled rope

                                                            hung high off

                                                                a hickory wood mockery of an ivory cross

 

                                                                                                the sanctimonious say

                                                                                                it is righteous and good

                        to strip the innocent girl bare

                                    to womanhood lost

                                pulling free, and tearing

                             the lacy frills and satin ribbons

                                                of her nightgown

                                                                                                             away…

 

 

                                                                                                but the dewdrops

                                                                                            still clung fiercely to

                                                                                        the bright yellow petals of

                                                                                           sunshine rays burgeoning out

                                                                                             begging to contrast dearly

                                                                                                to the grey of day

                                                                                     heavy from the misted rains

of morning

 

            like thick—grieving—teardrops,

 (rolling down,)

from the sky…

yay!! i'm back on my own computer! and yes, i'm alive... surprisingly enough. been rotting my brain while on sb and my computer's been slightly (if not more) broken.  at any rate, this is sth i wrote before i left school and am finally able to publish. for once i sorta like it :P

 

these grey days

 

 

 

these grey days of mine

            i keep them in my pocket

              smile [secret] as they slip out and wander away

 

         (they think i’ve no track on them)

 

    then they tug at my heart

    with that cotton string they find      (there)

attached to it

welded with a metal of platinum and steel

 

 

AND SUDDENLY

..i disappear..

 

                                    vanish in thin, foggy air

                                                               mists whirling

                                                            smoke billowing

                                                                 up into mushroom clouds of dust

 

                try to find the boat

                                    (the boat to Avalon]

            and you will see me there

 

                                                                                    standing on the edge of the coast

                                                                                       playing with the strands of the

breeze off the ocean

                                                                                                the water as grey as your eyes

 

                                                                              holding out welcoming arms

                                                                                    towards the grey days that were lost...

                                                                                           …. but never gone

 

(no, they were never gone from me. nor you)

:P... that's all u get ;)

 

shiny things

 

 

the shiny things that make up our lives…

               ...from bottlecaps

                        to wristwatch rings

                   jewellry

                        to cellophane wrappings

 

                                                                        the sparkly things

                                                                           that dangle and gleam

                                                                             from odd places

                                                                  that we’ve yet to explain away

 

such odd gems

    jewels  and junk

                                                one man’s treasure

                                                one man’s gold

                                                                                    trash in another’s

 

 

and a life spent in pursuit of

one or the other

 

oh, don’t waste my time on these shiny

sparkling

gleaming

golden

sunset things

                                                                             that disappear with nightfall

                                                                             fade with the stars of morning

                                                                                    and the moon that hangs forever

                                                                                       (cursed to glow forever in the night sky)

oh, don’t distract me

            with these shiny

              ephemeral, effervescent
             things

                                                     whose pointlessness

                                                     ever evades me

 

                                                                                                but these shiny things that

                                    m         a          k          e             up our lives

 

 

shiney and b right

shiny and right

 

                forever fill

               the spaces between

              the gaps that gape

 

                                                                                                shine as polished silver

                                                                                                smooth as reflection of water

                                                                                                    crystal and clear

 

 

…these shiny things of our lives…

sth i wrote on a tangent :P... i rather think i'm not or am liking this style...

 

the.rain.eyes

 

 

the greyness of the sky

            it darkens

 

    as thunderclouds gather

       and thunderclaps await

 

the air, it just gets cooler with the disappearance of the sun in my eyes

            (it’s not like the rains of summer

                warm, and humid

                heavy with turgid breath

                        like the pungent scent of a wide woman’s armpit

                                                during the heat of sex

 

              but with such a freshness after its fall

                        as if one had just awakened from a dream

                        of faeries running with raindrops)

 

                                    and, well, it’s cold

                                                            out here in the rain.

 

                                        (i stand here, as my toes freeze in puddles of mud)

                                                                                                            [cold and lonely;

                                                                                                  something you could

never perceive]

 

she had eyes like the winter rain, they said.

       frigid, and distant

                        and something never to be felt.hung around them like a halo of silver

     yet still so beautiful to behold

              it is said,

                        that something inside her,broken

                         shattered by a careless hand

                          that she never recovered.

 

                                                                                    in her pale, white

                                                                                    [hospital]

                                                                                    nightgown

                                                                                    embroidered with lace

 

                                    i remain far from surprised

                                                            (ever and always)

 

                                                                           however,

                                                                        something inside

                                                              just wrenches to think upon

                                                                                it

                                    (far and forever.     always.)

 


(oh yes, and thanks for IT's and modern technology, oh, dear world. i do so adore u for that :P... lots of everything else gets reproach, sulking and a basic sigh as i move forth to deal. it's funness, no?) well... this one, idk... i liked it and came up w/ it sometime, thinking about somewhat, but... (yeah, and that tells u a lot :P)... well, i'm sure u can think of sth on ur own :P...

 

your windows are your eyes to your souls

 

 

 

you reach over

                        right over the breakfast table

                        and the coffee

                        and the eggs

                        and this morning’s newspaper

            over the salt and the sugar

                and the accompanying cream and milk

 

to tug on the thread of my eyes

                                                that leads down to my soul

                                                that leads down to my heart

                                    up above (and through) the smell that remains solely me

                                        (that smell you and i can never seem to get enough of)

                                    an aura of green and blue, and perhaps a deep teal

                                    and a breath of fresh,

                                                            winter

                                                            summer

                                                            fall

                                                air

                           that we’ve never seen before

 

                        (yes, the spring that eludes me, still)

 

and you yank, just a little harder

                                                so that my insides become out

                                                my heart and intestines

                                                my soul

                                             (that thing)

                                       that makes me, me

                                    regurgitates on a silver platter before you

                                    to be served on silver hardware

                                    and silver services

                                (by delicate French maids,

                               and elegant English butlers)

 

            why do I intend to keep your heart next to mine?

              locked in a box

              hung on a chain

              right above my rib cage

              on the left most side

 

 

 

when it needs to be free?

   and fly like a bird

    a wheeling kite on shaky wings

     above the trees

     and mountains,

                                    who tilt their faces upwards

                                    waiting for the kiss of the clouds

                                    and the tears that is rain

                                       to fall and slide down a cheek

                                                                        that is smooth and green

 

      like the aura of your smile

            after your first cup of cool tea in the morning

            after we get out of bed, tangled in crumpled sheets

            after a night of sighs of content and hearts that will not go unwound.
