_1.

forgotten mixture.  partial photograph.

i probably should have been above you, not sunk into mud puddles
too deep for you children,

tucked into drawers where the dreams go to mope.

_2.

your toy.  my choice of poisons.

look, and lock your teeth here.  have me over this loss of faith,
this bottle of jollies.

the teeth marks are scary and starting to bleed.

_3.

an impasse.  molasses.

your heaven is on this road because my head is on the ground.
scrounge for oxygen with me,

or finally let drown the only one you could never peg down.

will you please use number 17fascinated,
led to holes where
grasses cannot grow,
courted away
from the same old stones,
the same old stories and heroes.

hung my poetry
from a lonely pole,
danced around it and blew smoke,
counted on no one
remembering the glow,
the shadows and bones and the way home.will you please use number 17 by ~tigereverskin

when you make good(i crested
and created lists of foes bested,
friends disinterested.)

have your stake in me—
take it farther than i ever could
and wake me up when you make good.

(i retracted,
coalesced and reacted silently,
reached back and impacted nobody.)

have your faith in me—
fake it better than i ever could
and shake me out when you make good.when you make good by ~tigereverskin

catch basincounting on the drips,
the cracks,
the days and ways the water misses its target,

simple math
in cried-about letters and laughs,

little mistakes, sacrifices and breaks,
and counting on the waves
in the hell that stays its intended path,

causes such pain,
causes such delay,

and wastes as many heartbeats
on love
as it does shame.catch basin by ~tigereverskin

I've been aching for someone I barely met...

_{...and I've been begging for something I'll never get.

Perhaps I'll give this poetry thing another go. It's been almost a year, you know.

These days I seem to mark time in movies watched. 520 of them since I last wrote something. That doesn't make any sense at all.}
