Sunset on the Inter Coastal
I’m turning over backwards,
The earth a tilt away
From slipping the sun
Below the horizon.
As day is done
The earth is rolling back
Behind me,
I’m flipping like a tumbler
Sliding backward
Facing west
As the earth rotates
Towards night.
Sitting, in a backward facing chair,
I somersault in space
Watching the line of trees across the sound
Creep ever so much higher
As it takes the sun.
Variegated yellow, ombre orange along the bottom
Casting hints of tints of pink
Halfway across the water.
The blue and purples mix and play
Lapping on the oyster rocks,
Reaching tranquil,
Into the hue of twilight.
Devious act of calling me honey
Playing out in shades of cunning,
His devious act of calling her honey.
Tandem of boredom
Fueled by distant cargo,
Wields his caramelized loathing,
Scorning the sedentary clothing
Of expected and reflected.
Deeply buried in psychosis
Lay the whip of stinging attraction.
Covet her body to the edge of a fraction,
And leave her covered,
bruised, and abused,
craving for more of the same craving for more,
of the insane.
Thrust of true lust.
loss of true trust,
From a man who is cunningly honey,
Bored, but baggaged.
Sweetly hating conventional convention,
Uncovering his secrets in the seduction
of a goddess.
As he craves more,
as he takes more
from an obsession
of confessions,
Lingers, always lingering.
Never, letting go.
Never, letting, go.
He Said I Shared
He said I shared the color of his mother’s eyes,
And would I like to see?
A photo perhaps
From under his bed,
A walk to the shelf
For an album of dust?
Perhaps.
No, the eye,
that was made for,
And worn by, the her
That bore him.
The Italian side,
of brown eyes,
Gone to hazel with age.
The one lost in an accident,
Found in her son’s closet
Decades and eons later,
Following her demise.
I declined
Placard Poem
One poem for, insert why, written
for one man, optional name named,
and why we were at, insert place perhaps,
in a time, season picked
and mood, emotion decided here,
I want it forever, why it won't happen.
