    Lethe let me forget
    E V E R Y T H I N G

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe

    Fly
    on the wings of a murderous
    dove.

    Halt there, citizen!
    Your carbon-copy smile
    stings me.

    Lift your lips
    Soft satin wings
    Reach mine

    must we die?

    and touch
    are monsters

    Catch some tears,
    From his lashes.
    And sleep.

    slender tail wagging

    Such bitter
    tears we
    cry over
    our lies

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe

    fear of love
    fear of brine
    not tears

    We dance
    upon graves
    every day
    and night

    Sear these lips shut
    that wisdom abandon them

    that words' ways no longer
    escape at will

    warranted
    or not at all
    thick
    but hollow.
