Pheromones
Madeleine Toerne Jun 2013
Rustic, fresh, sweet, strong, light, deterring, sweet, strong
pheromones.
Yellow lamp, shining bright, reveals red bumps.
Ceramic seat accommodates the focal point for personal evaluation.  

Girl competes with guy.
Six-inch, dark- pink light-pink like petals by the bed stand.
Mason jar and silhouette car and sticky leather seats.
Ears protrude, far out, but he hears less than she.

Automatic diamond needle; 20th century piece.
Thick, rich black hair parted down the middle
Fiddle with 'er keys.  
Minty menthol gags
inspire thievery from neon ****.

Divorce rate ascends,
over mountains of cologne.
But the crystal stick
never does the trick.

The Mundane
Madeleine Toerne May 2013
Glittery, jittery raindrops.
An old, long lost friend turned cold.
Beckoning to move faster, and rush
Until out of the wet, and onto the damp cotton jump-seat
Faked bliss, but still happiness edges nearer
And nearer.  

Little green bells of our lady of artistic inspiration
Observation and fresh vegetable
Graveyard maintenance.
The mundane.

Frog-legs dance on their tip toes.
Buttery biscuits and the sound of gagging from the stall--
Instantly gratified.
Small child-stares, and alone in a fantastic universe.
Melodies cease, imagination deflates
The mundane.  

Sticky leaves stuck on black and white cats.
Voracious, they ravage the tall grass.
Passive-aggressive sunshine sprinkles now, and burns later.
Fortifying iced drinks, and pinkish, blueish, purplish
Does the sun go down?
