10. Ode to steam

Ode to steam

 

I pull the shot.

Like a bullet to the brain, but soft

Is lightening ever soft?

In Việt Nam you listen to incense

A pentatonic scale

Can fragrant steam sing ?

The surface of the cup

shimmers with fragrance

The rich warmth of velvet

Can you drink velvet?

Condensed milk childhood

In Vit Nam they ice it

Can you freeze childhood?

Memories curl like steam

A boulevard   a café  banyan trees

Can memory carry me home?

Wallflower social club

So I met this chick the other night…..Smoooookin hot!!!

Well, I guess meeting her is an exaggeration,

really I just stood in one spot.

Music was electric,

I starting bobbing my head.

Actually, I thought about doing that,

I decided to get a glass of punch instead.

Oh my god, the chick was staring at me now!

She waved and mouthed the word ” Hi”

Unfortunately I forgot my glasses,

The chick was really pointing down, telling me to button my fly!!

 

 

 

 

Kisses

I want to be able to wrap my arms around you and cover you in kisses but in the back of my mind I wonder do you deserve them? Your demeanor tells me you don’t your hiding something deep within that would cause me to keep my affections to my self. Are you longing for the kisses that make you reach your peak since I cannot trust you my kisses I will keep.

Every leaf know my state

Every leaf and every shrub

Knows my state

It is me who is lost

Unaware and unknown

Surrounded in this

City of love

Yet no none knows

How to heal

Cruelty, sarcasm and mockery

Are the ways of the world

Compassion, grace, loyalty

Have lost….

We Bow before the arrogant one,

Called him ˜God’

In the name of God, what does that

Insolent one know of Him

We are nothing

But corpse

But see, we live again…

That restless, listless soul

We had given up as lost

Thinking of sharp edge

Of sword as an elixir!!

Him

I have not been known to speak of rhyme

Yet I am held accused of a certain crime

A known stranger has taken me spellbound

Swiftly, slowly his love has come around

In celestial ways his words so enchanting

He turns monotony into fables so captivating

Above the ringing of each sound sonorous

Stands his gleeful laugh in all stands humorous

Mystify, mesmerize, simply intoxicate

Those hazy espresso eyes, carved to invigorate

He lies satisfyingly cold in the midst of summer

And burning hot in winter’s murmur

Purely seraphic in his existence

From the dwellings of angels is his countenance

His anger, too is strong as a thunder fall

It lands into my heart for my senses to enthrall

His passions a sea of deep discovery

His thoughts to me are divine decree

All his self a glorious mystery untold

As I wait for the secrets carved in him to unfold

Daedras

Oh, I’d like to be an Atronach, I’d like it very much
For flesh would burn, and bones would freeze with everything I touch!
Ice and ashes, would the mortals be
If they should dare to mess with me
Oh, I’d like to be an Atronach, I’d like it very much.

I’d like to be a Daedric Prince, I’d like it very bad
The power that I’d have would be the most I’ve ever had!
I’d enjoy myself, and never fret
With power over life and death
Oh, I’d like to be a Daedric Prince, I’d like it very bad.

I’d like to be a Clannfear, that would be so very cool
The flesh of men and mer I’d tear with sharp claws as my tool!
Everyone else, they’d soon be dead
I’d charge into them with my head
Oh, I’d like to be a Clannfear, that would be so very cool.

I’d like to be a litte scamp, that’s what I’d like to be
Those who like to call us weak, they’d better not look down on me!
To run and hide, it will have no effect
I’d slash them when they least expect
Oh, I’d like to be a little scamp, that’s what I’d like to be.

I’d like to be a Golden Saint, I think that’d be so fine
How well that job would suit this little sadist streak of mine!
The crazies from the real world sent,
I’d punish to my heart’s content
Oh, I’d like to be a Golden Saint, I think that’d be so fine.

I’d like to be a Daedroth, that would be very fun
I’d ravage every town from Seyda Neen to Tel Aruhn!
I’m not a crocodile per se,
Having two legs leaves my sharp claws free
Oh, I’d like to be a Daedroth, that would be very fun.

I’d like to be a Xivilai, I’m sure you’d like it too
Just think of all the lovely Dark Seducers I could woo!
There’d be few opponents I can’t kill
The rest, my summoned Clannfears will
Oh, I’d like to be a Xivilai, I’m sure you’d like it too.

I Get It

Sometimes she doesn’t get it.

She’ll get in the way,

and mess up my work,

and she’ll yell for more food

when her plate is half full,

and she’ll rub against my elbow

as I’m typing something important.

Then she’ll sit on my papers

that I’m trying to review,

and once I move her over,

she’ll crawl right back to the same spot.

Sometimes she doesn’t get it,

but when she purrs

I do.

I finally get it.
