A Photographic Memory..
Miss Treated
Tongues starving for ears,
tears searching aimlessly;
affectionless butter-fingers are
inching away, eating a
bowl of sorrow.
Lifted to a glass of
broken regret
as grief condensates
along the see-through
window pane,
grimacing a life.
Imprisoned mentations -
meditating to brain-stems
which sprout & beleaguer disbelief.
Crawling extensions
reaching for a hand to hold,
a numbing sobriety, devouring -
clammed skin closing
to stomach the cold...
Miss Placed
Blind at stargaze -
nightmare's in full moonlight,
& candles cannot provide less.
Dilapidated desire
translated into a languish language,
fluently spoken in whispers -
the only provider
of acrid stenches.
Confined to secrets -
signing a line
crossed by the disturbed,
dotted; illiterate misses.
A constellation prize -
balloon's cater a need
convincing a risen chin;
disobedience heeding to
feed cadavers...
Miss Understood
Hazel waters puncture levees
precocious in abandonment;
bursting lids when lashing out -
falling like autumn.
Stains remain near
the drain impartial to leak,
this artesian sinks -
beneath the depth of a faucet
working overtime.
Time and a half again,
paid in worries -
clambering towards savior
falling short
& it's a long way down.
Eye-liner traces ulterior failure
now a heart beats silent;
detrimental melodies',
chords from a triune chorus
paints cursed euphonies...
Miss You.
