Short Razored Poems

razored words in harsh derision
cutting pain enhances vision
Time stands still beside the void
That darkness that we all avoid
space spins eternal cup unfilled
constant motion standing stilled
by distance...

As I slip into your velvety sweetness...

I feel my life feathering into yours

...we are one in an instant

We can not be separated any more

You will pour out if I'm emptied

I will remain inside you

our essence has mingled



your razored love slides down my weakness...

Cold steel in tempest.
Turn of the screw.
Long night desires;
Your eyes are afire.
Blades sharp…
Time conspirers
Ill will of heart
Eyes burn at imagery.
Winds cool the soul.
Eons turn and stop…
A Tempest in a steel teapot.
Scream the razored heart
Full of blackened
Mechanical parts…...

Hair is beauty
We get it fluffed, curled, died, fixed
We get it highlighted, lowlighted, razored,
But what if we lose it?

Let’s say our hair is gone
It has all fallen out
Are we still beautiful?

Are babies not beautiful?
Are seven-year-olds who have cancer not beautiful?
Are gorgeous women who are taking radiation not beautiful?

Hair is beauty
But should it be?...

Glaciers float around obsidian pupils
In the crystal pools of my world.
I press against the razored quills
Of companions fates unfurled.

Vines of discredit wrap the columns
Of all the secrets suppressed.
Rooted in the depths of swollen gums
And branded against milky flesh.

Ripples waver over blind eyes
Glistening with sarcastic humor.
Never sees the failings, soon demise
Deaf to the undulating rumors....

The sound is hard 
 Brutal like a knife 
 Cutting deep 
 Slicing apart feelings
 Emotions 
 Things that bind 
 Words razored 
 Feelings discard 
 The trappings of tenderness 
 Lost 
 a Hurting sound
 Made by thoughts
 fears and tears
 Struggling to persevere
 Destroying the fine lines of years 
 Tracing a wounded heart 
 Sacrificing all to   
 The ones we love 
 Just to be burned away 
 A sound hard
 Like breaking ice
 Hurting a delicate sound...
