Give Yourself Away

Give yourself away
and allow the muse
to hollow out a reed
for the music of the spheres
that longs for your embrace
that longs to play in your heart
that longs to set you free.


Premium Member Mango

Make a mango levitate in water
Look at its surface like a buoy floating
Pretend there's a treasure chest attached below
Peel the skin to reveal pure gold
Hollow out the mango holding a gem.

Premium Member Termites Cq

aging darken
dead ember wood 
creaking left bare
eating termites 

in colonies
hard destructive
winged eating bugs
hollow out trees

Cessation of thought ego begot, gradual graded disassociation from fear & desire precipitation, we hollow out mind-body from cravings & urgings shoddy, even as divine magnetism within persists we be to become a bliss mist, until ceasing to weigh & size we simply vaporise!

The Last Autumn Poem

Again,
        apple cider season,
              cool autumn whiskey,
                    burning leaves.

No one needs another autumn poem.

      We grow gaudy phrases
                  like pumpkins,
hollow out foreheads,
throw away seeds.

Always paring, cutting
eyes
      with awkward thumbs,
seeing autumn
      as a pewter stallion
and winter
      wildly undone.

Untitled

You seem so bruised
and its so beautiful as its reflecting off from you as it shines
youre in the bathroom carving holiday designs into yourself
Hoping no one will find you,
but they found you
And they took you
And you somehow survived.

So wake up, and if the holidays dont hollow out your eyes
Then press yourself against whatever
you find to be so beautiful and treambling life.

The Proposal

When I held your tiny hand
My fingerprints hold your fingerprints
Your palm lines are wrapped
Around my palm lines
I would bend the love line into a ring
And put it on the fourth finger
Of your right hand
My breath presses your breath
Your heartbeat counts my heartbeat
I am willing to hollow out my chest
To build mansion for you
Falling in love with you
Is the greatest happiness in my life
I will stay by your side for the rest of my life.
