"Romance in the Time of Crawling"


We wait in hibernation
for the great release 
into a 2nd coming maybe 
a 3rd, a 4th, a 5th
it’s a joyful death
the pain on entry
where oceans break
the certainty of all 
that is shore
the harbour opens
we sail forward 
through bloody waters
into a new territory
the washing machine 
cycle, load and dry 
the vacuuming of floor
grounded, we are 
lustily put to bed 
lusciously all wrapt up
in those hot little deaths
stimulus to create
something better
of ourselves
borne again 
it’s like looking 
into the eyes 
of a mirror 
for a little while 
the distant sound 
of seagulls waiting
for their feed 
crying loudly 
to be fed 
milk and honey
in the let down
drawn back in through 
tiny sharp succubous lips
adored little vampires
that suck the life out of you
like air to breathe
you hold in your arms, 
you hold your breath
for a little sleep,
you no longer sleep
you’d do it 
all over again
romance in the time 
of crawling
like an infant 
crossing the line
learning to let go
the lessons 
in the value of repeat
no open casket viewing
high 5 requiem me
Lavendar street
swimming again
diving into the deep end
with bathers at Balmoral
ashes like snow
falling into the ocean 
moving against your skin
to live the dream again

(LadyLabyrinth / 2023)
