Cold Hearts Beating

Goddess breasts
And King rage
Stood atop high mountain
Within fog-haze heaven fountain
Proclaimed animosity
Seduction she destruction he
Planned in intricate intimate detail
Spanned thoughts depths good to evil
Delve deeper death
Devolve life or rotting unto another
Devoid they’ll stumble crumble
Rubble stubble see the wonderful
Beautiful ending chaos of love

Passionate embracing commences
Orgasm finalizing hatred
Defenses halt all faltering attraction
Poison words become self-preserving reaction
Pitiful pitiless human race
Crass species welcoming defeat
Relieve relent life strife
This wife is now beaten bloody
Barren dragon satan devil spawn
Celestial snow painted blood-red
We are dead

Time reduces marvelously
Flesh erodes bloated bones
Appear traveler near observes
Immortals on high crying softly
Falling Olympus’ shroud tainted dyed
Maroon amber streams
Skeleton’s romance remains
Defames other’s vows
Promised hours till reaper doth part
Wedding bands golden
These eyes have beholden
Affection surpassing eternal sleep
Redemption veiled with mystery.

Love You In These Blues

Eye-socketed light bulb spirit window
Staring
Glint obsidian entering
Rolling reeling mind
Stop looking at me

Scraping nails skin warm sweat
Feeling
Lithe seduction pressing
Revealing ring thing
Stop dancing with me

And can I
Can I
Can I

Can I love you in these blues

Tones chord piano tongue Bose
Speaking
Metallic symphony driving
Maddening weeping strings
Stop listening to me

And will I
Will I
Will I

Will I love you in these blues

May I love you in these blues?

Conquered

Smoldering charred stake
Stinking thick running fire-tar
Boiling destroying bubbling skin
Melting seeping waxed dust bones
Screeching mother weeping water
Crying sister sizzling cooked humans

Hot atomic sun
Miscellaneous dirt winged earth
Scratching dry sight killing tears
Waves attacking white tender flesh
Ultraviolet death armies
Blood rock clotted toes and heals
Long tracks of my flowing life

Crosses soldiers’ crucifix
Along the road to Rome

Fear’s consequence dying submission
Rage rejuvenating stumbling effort
Weakness is meek relenting eyes
Cold shivering opium dreaming
Cream-colored mold man lying
In line metal chain god
Unifying binding slave’s master’s will

Ending columns devious spaces
Empty lacking nails or straining muscles
Clear heaven not billow black smog
Praying Christ’s affection mercy
Angel melody nothing choking creeping
Devil serpents handling lifting
Pouring lighting leaving repeating

Refrain

Soft Eyes

I

I look with soft eyes,
On you,
A tear I can't but cry,
Slips down like softest dew.

I know no love so deep,
As this,
Nor sorrow to make me weep,
In joyful bliss.

No other have I ever known,
Nor will,
To make my love a thing to own,
Forever and until.

II

I chase. I call aloud your name,
You turn,
My heart is set aflame,
I cannot help but yearn.

"Be mine," my soft eyes plead,
We see,
Into each others hearts, the need,
Is so clear. You flee!

III

I look with soft eyes,
On a world of pain,
I quietly fade away,
And die.

Love Letter

This is my weeping love letter
And the ink is all the tears I’ll never cry
As I wander nearer suicidal death
So afraid of feeling anything again

I ache emotionally ragged
The cruelest words could not but bring
One more surging heart-emotion
Kiss me and I’ll die from pain

The smile you see is manufactured
The laughter jest and emptiness
Forgive my social isolation
True healer you will never be

I wish my heart would only break
Spilling every final drop of blood
Killing dying I surrender
Forget me as you turn away

Or did you think that you could save me
Virgin child still a whore
How many have you given chase to
Instead of waiting for my dying eyes

I plunge steal swiftly violence
Spurting blood destruction sinking body
Watch me I redeem myself
Of one more passion betraying fire

Is there nothing holy white
Excellent beauty divine affection
I seek the impossible unworthy
And fail and fall and

This is my weeping love letter
The ink is all the tears I’ll never cry
I wander nearer suicidal death
Afraid of feeling anything again
