Next Poem, Erased On a Sharp Black Line

"Next Poem, Erased on a Sharp Black Line"



The more I try to erase you
The more you present sharp and present
Oligarchy claps on, 
Teeth sharp and tongues bite venomous in numbers

There you are walking
barefoot and blindfolded 
on a Sharp Black Line
Daring to dive in

Here I await your presence
In the swim
A shadow drowning 
under brittle crystal hours

hooked by lip
silent

Aqua smile shatters a 
dry paper kiss
Fingers touch written lines
not the bees stinging 

with their 
thick 
sticky honey

Fingers tracing lips
The tongue spoken
between broken 
and bliss

Alive,
not drowning
waving

Something in the story
missed

Absent 
Ingenue
Transformation 
Tryst


To sleep,
close my eyelids
who's counting on you,
next poem

erased on a sharp black line

(LadyLabyrinth/2019)
