Un jour, à l'éternité
A heartbeat, between split-beat of
Breath how burn the heart within,
Crying out a name, missing in silence
Only Gods feel, angels eulogize between
A man, a woman, between now
And then… amidst veils, shadows perched
Cast like a play between Sun, and night
Between life, and death
I trace the hardness of the heart
Within flows the blood encircling aliken
Moths towards a flame, beating in prayer
For none alone, in conscience care
Of a past remembrance, of promises
Unwept, beating like drums at dusk
A thought, unconsumed, an embrace
Unfulfilled, sealed in words unspoken
Prayers, implored as eyes dart across
The darken skies, unlit like a blanket
Disheartened, as tears cull in eyes
Wrenching a revelation pleased
Only a Soul may express
"... Que je vous aime"
Succulent Affair
Dark, his skin beckons
Me to taste and slice the meat
Off, enriched with goodness
Only the heart can savour
Though through the tongue
Its bitter-sweetness reigns
Alike a king
Sweet, pungent and killing
Acidic, the flowing juice, a
Reminiscent of past joys
Sweet renderings, tis sweet as honey
This love I miss amidst
tasting pleasures, none have I miss
amidst displeasures
the groins of nature plucked
like raisins sweet ready
to be squashed and trampled
like bodies intertwine
How beauty colours the brazen
Jars in winter pure, hardened
Embracing juice in dark cellars
A succulent affair
That drenches the body warm to
Silent madness of twirls, spirals
And dances… meshed between
Blood and soul
