A Conflagration of Gold
Sweet Winter smoke fills my lungs bringing me back to California.
Autumn
Leaves change into spice laced drinks, turtleneck sweaters, lanterns, raincoats, fall.
Hands Like a Spider’s legs
Hands like a spider’s leg, scurried through my black hair, tracing my blank mind.
Contacts
Pull your eyelids back listen for the crunch of brow against bone, insert.
Ash
Cremated remains of ancient evergreen trees fell like snow on me.
Fernweh
Everyday I dream of strong arms, perfume, heartbeats melting into me.
Carbonation
Still black elixir sugar, root caffinated open up, exhale.
Traffic
Pavement moans under rubber wheels racing towards temporary stops.
Belly
Muscles weaved between tendons, skin, last month’s pizza & cheese cake giggles.
