Zebras in the shade

Acting as a dazzling mass

Remaining untamed

After everything

You never felt like a sin.

Brief moments of grace

Swift orange flashes

In that decadent darkness

A charged humid night

Where do the deer sleep?

Beyond the flattened tall grass

Far from human wrath

I'll beg if you want

Take control of my senses

Eclipse everything

It's easy to say

Don't panic, slower pleasures

But, all things must pass

To maintain his cool
the passionate oenophile
Drinks from glass with stem

I was once bewitched

Now those spells begin to wane

I can sing again

Eternal sunshine

An impractical ideal

For a spotted mind

The smell of lilacs

A head full of thorn bushes

Flowers always fall

There was a plum tree

Whose fruit looked blue at sunset

I have no photos

Her theremin theme

Vibrates the air around us

I'm on her wavelength

You were my first time

I can't change it or forget

Goddamn phantom limb

Digging up my heart

From that deep hole in the ground

We feel safer now

Like a morning mist

Floating low over corn fields

Gone before you know

Libations, chapped lips

Lacerations, for Vermin

Lamentation loop
