distant heart
beating slow
moving further
growing colder
frozen still

distant heart
beating slow
moving further
growing colder
frozen still
within you
they see
your integrity
steadfastly poised,
unwaveringly composed
devious thoughts
plotting a way
to obtain love
through cuisine
She walks through the forest with purpose, for today she must compose a poem for a king.
She stands in the forest listening and observing, so creativity flows through her.
As a Skald, she must practice her craft well; Thor and Odin will be displeased if she does not.
It’s a coincidence
that you’re leaving
and so am I
Not one to shy away from the strange and the obscene, he thinks of some party tricks for tonight.
Ladies are many and boggle his mind, for he sees himself as an urban Casanova.
Unable to settle for one love, he prefers to love in threes or fours.
The time arrives, the guests are bouncing, and the party is swinging and shaking all about the mansion.
Beauty abounds and lovely young sights as he thinks of nibbling on chocolates or rose water delights.
Tricks do begin, but it’s the usual tosh, yet he’s thinking about what he can do.
With weird ideas swirling and too much bourbon soaking, he goes to the kitchen & thinks, “What do I have and what do I need to get my perversions on track?“
Looking and looking, he opens the cupboards and draws with swirling thoughts plaguing his mind. Searching the kitchen and not drawing attention, he grabs three sturdy blue spatulas.
Like Houdini on crack or DMT, he makes frosting enough for three cakes.
It’s causing some giggles and a few weird looks, but he’s too fucked in the head to agree.
The frosting is ready, and it tastes like a sweet dream, so he lines the bowls up on the bench.
He waits for the prudes and the boring to leave until ten of the lovelies remain.
Once properly pinched and appropriately plucked to shine bright, he smears frosting all over the nymphs. Once frosted, he moves in and starts to carnally satisfy his longing for sweets.
There’s frosting about and in places unseen, yet he beats his best record of four.
With ten lovely ladies all over him now, he’s a man in a heaven of sorts.
A refuge
to eat
chocolate
and
ice cream
without
judgement.

I see a world far away
or somewhere near.
If I could describe
what I see, it would
describe what I
think of you: beauty.
You, with your neat sunlit soul;
You, with sad snow within your soul reflecting light and love.
From the window, I think of you.

There is something gentle
and uplifting about a yellow
rose in the spring.
It blooms, even
from within a cage.
The roses in this caged garden
remind me that beauty can be
found from within a prison, even
if that prison is within one’s mind.
“Only love can break your heart“, or so the song says.
Why then must one walk through thorns and thistles of the world to find a soulmate?
With a familiar nudge, he takes a chance and asks her to dance; It is awkward at first, yet most love is like that at first.
