CHANGING HUES

I want to sit with you
talk with you
become you
share your passion
your life

I want to share experiences
no ulterior motives
highs and lows
anything goes

just let me

pour a glass of wine
dip my finger
into the red liquid
of your heart
trace your lips
stained with the
hurt and pain
of your life

let me

quench your thirst
for freedom
freedom from the mundane
the haggard
sucking life’s air
blackened spirits

let me

exorcise
lurking demons
holding you prisoner

let me

free you from the cells
replace the bars
with windows
of my heart

let us

sit and watch
the setting sun
rising
day to night
night to day
nature’s canvas

let us

paint the sky with new colours
reds and yellows
brilliant hues
no blues

let us

hold the brush
at both ends
both hands
our hands
stroking our
centres
brushstrokes
colour within the lines
blend outside

let us

become living art

the master becomes the student
the student
trades places
with the master
painting by numbers
oils slide
mixing
salty streaks
heats the surface
burn the covers
contracts dissolve
fresh inks applied

let us

create our masterpiece

ELF

across the winds
a cry is heard
from the heart
of a man

a man unafraid to admit
to the troubling demons
inside
his psyche is torn
shredded
society’s standards
duplicitous
their morals
judgmental
surveillance of life

he cries
painfully
holds
his throbbing
chest
his hands
gripping
reaching 
stability
not found in a bottle
not prescribed
he cries

listen

listen to the silence
no answers

listen

listen to the silence
one answers

whimpers
reaches from the ether
touches the other
shoulders the weeper

unexpected
the soothing clasp
grasps
the sensual touch
tangible
yet immeasurable

bathed in her glow
mellifluous
slow
lying wrapped in her arms
cocooned
cuddled
satisfied
