In the still cool air of twilight
A gray rain falls
Changing the world to a dull blue
Quietly I watched
The remnants of the sun vanish
Beyond that horizon
Less fiery and bright
More cool and light
Peaceful and calm
A beginning rather than an end

grey fairy
of ash, and inbetween
whispered its nothings to me
in the dark light of afterdusk
silent and still and ever screaming

on the parapet of city skyline
it perches without heed
the grey fairy of ash and nothing
smiles its grey smile and
beats its grey wings
In a moment between hours there are other things to think about.

****** rain and its monotonous rhythm of melancholy,
Something deep inside was strangling and holding in the twilight.

I never felt so weak and slaved,
Emotions down-poured as if splitting you far into the wilderness...

Time crawled and so did the tangle of emotion strangling tight,
The past loving with an innocent kiss fulfilled its destiny with deadly stab,
present was as meaningless as the future.

Loneliness had a definition of companionship, dreams with the sting of reality,
I within myself was being diminished with every moment being passed by,
It led me into another World of Illusion...
Into the World of Illusion...

Kick my warped heart
'cross horizon's false length
watch it burst at my heel's tempered strength
under hot caustic palms
I grind clots into smears
o'er the tactless bold beauty
of dusk's starlit tears

Acidic blood orange
immiscible lies
through combustible petrol lined dusk riddled skies
pummelled raspberry shades
razor grazed until night
amid gloaming mood strains
of my bruise hued twilight

Your blackness detoxifies
poison carved pain
murmured words purify
dispel doubts storm fuelled rain
overcome by our sunsets
conquer nights crushing pain
watch the burnt sun arise
let our hearts love again

Win me with you actions at Dawn.
Undress me with your words as the Sun rises.
Make love to me with your heart as Twilight breaks.
And Love me with your all as Evening comes.

Then let's repeat that cycle.

A delicate sound trickles into my ear
A tantalizing voice from a mouth so fair
Her lips move as she brushes back her hair
And moonlight beams into my dreams

She eases me with her soothing scent
With little laughs between words,
Whispering softly in unison with birds
That sing and cheer as dawn draws near

The graceful woman I am bound to
Greets me with a smile while I sleep
And tells me that she is mine to keep
After the sun has set and twilight beget

Her tender touch is all I need
As I hopelessly cling to my fantasy
And indulge an invisible ecstasy
Until I awaken and my love is taken

Every evening
When the sun starts kissing the ocean
Yellow and orange frisking upon the water
My chest sinks in submission
Anticipating the emerging
Of the twilight Kraken


A good friend of old
You clasp your far reaching limbs
Around my heart
Injecting your black ink
deep into my soul

Every arm has a story to tell
A memory of failure and pain
A dying fantasy of happiness
An image of loneliness
A desperate cry for meaning

I can still see the shape of the sun
A slowly flattening ball in the background
The dimming light a perfect scenery
For a vicious attack

Trapped inside a big dark knot
Defiance is futile
Childhood memories of hopelessness
And joy
The only way of breaking free is letting go
Sinking into the deep

I want to hold you tight and kiss you.
I want to send chills down your spine,
And make you arch your back in ecstasy.
I want to kiss you,
And not just on your lips;
I want to give you a full body massage -
With my lips, with my tongue.
I want to kiss you reverently,
Till you can't ask for more.
I want to kiss you throughout the night,
All day long, from dawn till dusk.
I want to kiss you at twilight.
I want to kiss you - only You.

Hey, my love on a far comet,
It's a golden sun kissed 7:42
I'm eating figs, bruise purple,
Plucked from the fridge,
Dipped deep in you.

Hey, my cosmic queen of hearts,
I've been an ocean since peach cloud 8:00
Full of oysters, strange deep gardens
Growing for you,
Eager to wait.

Hey, my bourgeois madam,
It's a bit past 8:15
I'm hearing birds, chirping blue,
And holding you warm,

Within this dream.
she's far away but sunsets bring her closer.
