I should write




I should write
Something
But the moon
Suddenly
Hides her face
From me
As words
Dissipate
Gentle surrender
Into the dark
Blending into the night
Leaving
Vapors trace
Whisper smoke
Bending rise

For now

I smile

I know
I see
The smile in
The slivering phase
Cautious return

I should write
Something

Passing

She
Smiles
With full lips
Smoldering
Succulent

Ripe

Waiting only
For me to pluck
The fruit
Of simmering flame
That only Awaits
The breath of life
Passing

What was it Jack?

David Bowie: Dead Man Walking Acoustic

What was it Jack

In the silent darkness
That devoured you whole?

 That diminutive point
Of light
That flashing sight
To a world
Of twisted words
Contorting truth
Into snares
Filled with dares
For sedated
Unsuspecting
Compliant fools
Whose ignorance
Was bliss as
Grease smeared fingers
Voracious gluttons
Served to stain and blot
The beauty of
Your words
The beauty of
Themselves
The simple beauty of
Beauty.
All lost
In the deafening dark

The dark
That devoured you whole

For the moment

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBKFCLd6mZE = Goodbye Ruby Tuesday Franco Battiato

For the moment
Rage grows
nurtured by
A nest of lies
Irrevokable

For the moment
She hit the Gemeni
In that space
The night harbor
The silver sliver
When the soul
Is tired
When
Ghosts rise
From battles long considered over
Rise
To tear at the flesh again
and again

and again

She won
For the moment
when
In the words
Epic
collided with
Tragic
In the end
The fragmented turblence
Of
The stifled
simple

silence

She won
For the moment
unable to see
His grin
As he rose
He knew
In that moment


For in that moment
All is only for a moment

And tomorrow
Expectantly lies peeking
Over the horizon


Tiger eyes



Tiger eyes
Of her
Hidden smile
In the dark
Yet shine
As
They devour
The target
Of passion?
Or a reaction
To the animal pull
Smolder

Dance with me
His muse softly sighs
In the dark
Hidden smile
Of her
Tiger eyes

Laughing eyes

Seu Jorge: Life on Mars
 
Sun slow emergence
Rising from his dusty bed
As
Her
Laughing eyes
Still smile
In the tender reach
Across the clutter
Of the everyday
I gently hum
The song of her heart
While she
In the distracted to
Wherever
Softly
Mindlessly
Hums mine

Silent Subtext too

Bond: Pump it
 
“This is dangerous business we are in”
Muttered phrase
Muted
By mist
Heard regardless
 
For
The simmering pot
Could not be forgot
Nor it’s rising, rolling, boil 

Yet
In power primal
Lay the danger
Though
The closest distance between two points
Proved
Unbearable 

The meeting tentative
Hesitating to give
Hesitating to
Live
Til the sign
Simple soft smile
Brushed her hair back
Returning her eyes
To his vision
Reviving embers
Smoldering burn 

The silent subtext
The conversation interrupted
Had never ceased
None could hear
Nor compare
To the conversations
Carried
The unspoken
In his tender touch
Her gentle laugh
Roared
Calling to life blooms
Of the verdant gardens
In the world created by the two  

All unsaid
All unsaid

Passing crowds
Never Suspecting
The rekindled inferno
Raging in
Racing hearts
Desperate for the halted life
To start anew

Yet
Caught in the undercurrent
Pulling the two
Ever deeper
Into the silent drowning
In the passion filled sea
Of the silent subtext
