Depictions Of Grace

Through that aired, for arms and legs
More so, and higher winged
For a depiction of grace
Its danced artistry
Look up. On a roof and sky
Effortless outlined.
Figurante's, flamingo's.
Who's is mimicry?

Loving Depictions

what whispers make you smile
and who is your secret
that you wish a world to wonder
what awaits him who wishes
to love you
what allows him to have you
as person
tell me your secrets
that i might make them a script to
have you mine

what do you what from a woman
is it to couple and procreate
do you demand loyalty
and command obedience
are men against you being loved
and wish to unravel your happiness
which methods fo you use to acquire submissiveness
and are you chored by the labors
of being together

what have you done to
be so wise
or are your wisdoms from ways of gaining trust
to then make victum of them that
have trusted you
am I the fool
to be crazy for someone
who wishes for me
to be satisfied and then
love scorn by
your turning
from good to evil
why are we then gaming
to create rules as we go along
the way.
what am I
who am I
and then
who are we

Toilet Stall Depictions

There's a movement down South
where sound comes creeping 
from beneath our feet, emptying 
pockets which never had much. 

You can see what we've written-
our bathroom stalls read
'Do something for the hell of it... anything...'
The messages are clustered around depictions 
of stick-figures having gay intercourse.

Money- the ways they lied to us 
unintentionally, believing 
just like we do it’s a means to safety 
or luxury cars with ass-warming seats.

But it's just an enhancer of methods 
for questioning, down with the pill, 
all cost and no lasting. 

What gives weight to the want 
for lingering? Beauty was, 
and thus she is, now 
and *** tomorrows. 

Today, though form 
and seasons change,
we have the means for loving. 
‘Til the presently mysterious fabric 
of time collapses, returning 
to whatever it was 
that caused it to begin.
