Passion cuts things to pieces

Passion cuts things to pieces
like a shard of broken mirror
that warps a once soft reflection
into jagged shreds of light and skin.
Feel the hot flesh pulse
and flinch in momentary madness.
This transient touch
melts dignity like wax
and bleeds out restlessly
like a beacon of sordid wants.
Bite the lip of sensuality
and bury the questioning mind
under grappled skin and wet hopes
of subdued loneliness.

Education
is loose rag for bodies,
a fine silk for minds
woven in knowledge and time.
Born
in folly nakedness
our fingers reach out
for those glinting threads
of meaning
and feeling
to hush and hold
and swaddle our souls
‘till our voices ride breaths
and sow words that give depth
to the days spent in light
and in sorrow.
Make the cloth for a better tomorrow.

Dreaming in sanity

to dream. to exist.
sensibly
sanely
holding darkness within;
within walls, alone…

continue
absolute reality;
Lay steadily shut; firm,
under doors and bricks
wood and stone

Long Haunting years
are met by some,
no larks
for the sane organism
