Poetry Drafts

teflon coated

I appear before you, not as myself but rather someone wrapped in layers; obfuscation if you like in the hope that I can present a more true reflection of that which is I. It is not my face you see, not my blue eyes and unshaven cheeks. You know not my name and to address me by mail you need handles, aliases cover all my closed entrances. Those are my tricks; in a trade of revealing myself to the public without the guilt sticking permanently.

I miss your hand / under the blanket / even as we drifted apart / our fingers touched / at night / I miss your hand / and our embrace / the touching / no longer / present

Smiling

There is beauty in death. As I watch you take the next step. As you leave me behind. I mourn as you rejoice in the sand untouched. All I ask from you, is to remember. Remember Me and times we had in the light. Smiling.

Tumblr is a strange beast…, I get notified when someone who has blocked me likes one of my posts…

No.oN

a passing thought / the birth of a poem / a sneeze / huh say again / a passing thought / lost in the wind / a poem / never seen

pyre pyre ring of fire

my back / resting on a pyre / your love / igniting the fire / my body / shaking / your spark / inviting
