The Bug

I'll be the mote in your eye,
I'll be the shadow you can't see.
I'll be the star in the sky,
that eludes you, won't let you be.

I'll haunt you in your heart,
and bleed upon you like tar.
I'll swill poison unknowingly,
ne'er leave a scar.

There will be moments when,
you will turn and look
for a shade that escaped
for a glance that took

your soul away.
For its never coming back,
the sense you lack.

Rebirth

No one's got it all,
The energy to enthrall
The will to forestall,
More than you can fall.

Now I like you,
I do.
Honest.

But the vines,
They clench my mind
In the forest.


Still isn't a question,
Its quicksand.
Its supposed to let things grow I heard,
Water and land.

Well it sucks at me,
A whirlpool of thoughts.
And I'm still waiting to connect the dots.

Tracing slowly, the lines on my hand
A gently glinting knife.
No matter then,
What use is it.
I'll comfort myself in my next life.

(I begin and end with Regina. My tribute, in my small way.)

A rosy cheek,
a sigh on the lips.
a twinkle in the eye,
the sway of the hips.

you wish it were that easy.
you know this grind through.
but even if its so cheesy,
your love may not be be true.

for its more than
a dance and a move
it is
the heart you choose

the beats
to which you could
sway all your life.

ruminations

Stupid stupid stupid me,
plucked a fruit off a tree
was a nice golden to see
overripe it turned out to be

for i plucked it when i was hungry
not when the fruit was right
and the other fruits on the tree
are now a far better sight

so stupid stupid stupid me
will now be a little angry
for even though it was free
it cost me heavily

Oh I just can't wait, to be king!
well, queen in this case.

heat

You'd feel it burning
inside of you,
yet an impassive face
would be your truth.

you'd blink twice
and cry inside,
and wonder why, the world
had died.

you'd bleed inside out,
but never show your doubt.
you'd be walking on sunshine,
for everyone, you'd be fine.

it'll only take one
to see;
and then,
you could just be.

for once you find that one
you believe,
you'd burn
gloriously.

Wolfish

There is hair Everywhere Behind my knees Between that crease, In my nose Between my brows And just yesterday I Found one on my chin Perhaps...
