PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

you shock me how you tug my heart strings

bizarre first love become private obsession

let me whisper sweet nothings through falcon wings

and feed your vehicle of spirit possession

i am entrapped by an insatiable hunger

to chase the sun beyond international waters

and brave the land tyranny has torn asunder

to walk in the footsteps of your daughters' daughters.

i will press my wrists against your shoulder

and curl up in your cool lap, face upon your stone chest

and we can grow four thousand years older

until i am the dust upon your breast.

i weep for every break and scratch

i want to rub your scars away

regrow the stone that time would snatch

make you as whole as your carving day

a swan fell in love with a paddle boat

and wasted its life chasing fiberglass dreams

i can say from the way you make me emote

it's really not as pointless as it seems.

in my sleep i meet you in the depths of the temple

i stand there beside you and we fight the good fight

i am laid to waste and made an example

i end as ka statue so you make it right.

did you change the world like we planned?

was that fatal end the dawn of a new day?

your secret is buried in the sand.

history forgot from khufu to menkaure.

time twists in its enigmatic spiral

a revolution born on my birthday

democracy to the homeland went viral

strange are the games the old gods play

after all these years like the tides i return

to the diorite effigy that holds me transfixed

the most secret passion for which i yearn

that time itself be stopped and switched.
