Strains of ThoughtA thought train of black tar
is a glowing target for a squadron of triggers
and their emotional atom bombs
On the landscape of a broken body,
they race toward a gulf of vexed consequence
littered with shipwrecked behavior

...

A thought hovers on the horizon
broad wings shrunken by distance
eyes sharp for tiny triggers fleeting below
nerves searching for gusts of feeling to float upon
Behaviors guided by hunger and flight
A lean body is carved by consequence

people-gods and demon-mirrorsYou can see how lost I am
when I wander between my tasks
and when I try to speak,
I bite my tongue in half

Warmth and a smile send me into shock
when they leave, the bottom drops out
I dive headlong in multiplied gravity

Later on in the bottom of the deepest fault,
could you meet me with another pair of wings?
Play for me the saddest songs
only to show me they've lost all power

Missed and Bid GoodbyeFor her I bought vanity
For you I destroyed it
For both, the price paid was disfigured

I never pass an opportunity to look beauty in the eye
Your beauty is for your damage, love
I feel the stimulant's charge
but this one I don't pay for
no, this one is yours

Laid up as a treasure in heaven
neither moth, rust, nor thief can take you
so long as I am here
so long as you are with me

The love at the bottom of the deepest heaviest heart
[it can be bitter]
Its effect is the same as any
[only amplified]

Lift her I love up to heaven
and all those I've ever and always will
love

Dust and AshEven when you know your way,
sometimes it's better to follow
but take heed if you're looking for meaning;
it might find you

Memories fond, once a dust in sweet sunlight
now turn to ash in my eyes
No alarms, no children's voices in the morrow when I wake
no job to run off to, no woman's sigh lying next to me
a dying car in the driveway, and an emptying house
with a few ebbing souls fading their way out the door toward the sky

Grand Theft CardioDon't make me steal...

what you've taken out of me
[all that I've offered freely]
what you tried to offer
[and I took until I wanted no more]
another breath from your soul
[yes, I can diminish eternity]

...and now you have diminished my guilt,
for your motives are depraved beyond mine

Thank you very much.

~CalleighBlack Dec 12, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

It's so beautiful and peaceful. Kind of like I could lay down in it and never get up again. I like it.

*MMDanielson Dec 13, 2012 Professional General Artist

It is wonderfully peaceful. I love the silence of winter.
