Smoke Signals
"Smoke Signals"
Her wet lips
long slender fingers
flipped the lit cigarette
3
seconds
it glowed
inhaled deep,
hard
and real slow
crushed under
Vermillion
manolo blahnik
killer,
Capital K
long bare legs in
deadly brutal
stilletos
The taste wasn’t sweet
Her last kiss
tasted of Manuka
and violet scented
dom Pérignon
tongues that duelled
real deep
hard hot and slow
Katherine
and
Petruchio
the sun
the moon
real slow
and low -
perfect
incomplete;
of course,
his mind
was a
blood let
delectable
juicy
feast
She’s his
unholy...
Pooka
nipping at his toes
as he treads his
shallow waters
troll dreaming as
he goes
Flotsam and jetsam
all the smart mouthed
burley flows
tossed from
all the other
flapping vacant
windows
Engaged,
sharp like a
a guided missile
burning his
Frenched-out
plastic curtained
Alphabet Soup
lettered
windows
her ship
point of sail,
in irons,
forward,
grins
while burning wind
blows
Morpheus and
Zo-so doze
She Monster knows
where He Monster goes
The moths
full of mouth
and ripe like
juicy figs
for plucking
sucking
swollen egos
flutter by
caught in
silken web
flattered then
slighted
unbeknown
trade a flippant
futile smile
sugar coated
single file
through an
XOX
m.o.
Powder puffs
with salted
buttery smiles
full of
Fool’s Gold
blow dust
and flutter by
with jesters
who deep throat
swallow’s
traded jibes
on toad
stools
turgid brown
bow low
hidden in
glass onion's afterglow
tittering lice on
sparrows chirp
they never lead but follow
squawking a murderful
of crows
Pride cometh before
a fall, don't ya know
ah, the minion
are on track
Legion shrugs and
keeps on walking
throws away the
Killer K
Stilletos
walks barefoot
on wet grass
in her dreams
she strides
looking for a sharp
needle
in a haystack
walks barefoot
on wet grass
in her dreams
she strides
looking for a sharp
needle
in a haystack
ah, the minion
are on track
Legion shrugs and
keeps on walking
Water off a
Duck’s Back
