 Sep 2016 The Fire Burns
Mozalios
The infection was the lies of your affection
Damaged
Perfection
We are all equal
The only thing that separates us is the efforts we put into developing our beings
 Sep 2016 The Fire Burns
Leo
i long for damp gold tears
from the dying trees
for me to inhale the summer's death
and exhale the winter's birth
when the air is hangs low with drowsiness
and cinnamon settles in the wind
what more can i want-
than cold nose and warm chest-
so loosely wrapped in ochre wool?
If you never try it
You'll never know it
You'll ever wonder
Forever doubt
So break out
Be a chance taker
A faith placer.
Take the bruises
Absorb the scrapes
That come from escaping safe harbour
And storm the border
Of your known neat and orderly
Childhood home.
Welcome to London.
Memories of my parents downsizing and leaving me to set up home.  I needed a nudge.
Wrap your failures around my throat
Use my body to keep yours afloat
Take my eyes so that you may see,
That I'd do anything you'd ask of me
Death is an amusing mistress
We need only remember her presence
To fully enjoy her absence
Is dead
That soul
That obeys
Of body
