he writes me
as if each letter was the last
in recorded history.
like literature would deign
to disappear without so much
as a wave of goodbye-
and i hang off his every word;
catlike concentration pawing
the loose threads of his conversation.
he doesn't speak in rhyme
(nor reason sometimes),
but his words speak to me
louder than a shot of epinephrine
and excites me just as well;
like it fills my arteries with
a longing to share your heartbeat
and breathe your air-
but then it's gone.
like a warm bathroom vapour
dispersing out through the open door;
the comfort fades and all that's left
is the cold condensate
dripping
I am still water,
Blessed by tranquility,
And harmonious depths
Of unknown humility.
When emotion stirs, however,
And I begin to ripple,
Be wary, friends,
For my waves can cripple.
But most of all,
I am a honey river--
An endless flow of love;
An imprisoned giver.
So drink me,
And feel the heat
Of sweetened waters
That shan't ever deplete.

to tease the audience now
take a deeper breath.
ii.
A beat of silence;
the audience hanging on.
The clowns know you're there.
iii.
Do not twist that way
before the tall man in black
walking on crutches.
iv.
Look up but not down.
Let go if you want, but the
net won't save you now.
v.
Youthful insurgents
flip together in perfect
synchronization.
vi.
A railway station.
A goodbye, a torn letter.
The snowfall was never so
cold.
The Dragon's Cry
A single roar resonates for miles around,
echoing through the mountain-side as the
leaders cower in terror from the fury.
Rising from the murky waters of the river
breathing fire over all that it despises,
the dragon aserts its' power.
The libraries are left untouched while
the scholars flee for their lives,
precious tombs are left untouched.
A few stand behind the angered creature
awed by the courage and rage before them,
they are the protected ones.
As the musicians continue playing the beast
blows smoke into the gates of the prisons,
almost as if trying to cause chaos.
The music calms the dragon and it

She had never understood why people sometimes said the stars were cold. She understood how the moon could be cold; it could drop down to -150 degrees Celsius at night, but stars? Stars were burning gas. They could never be cold, or so she thought; however, as Renee stood in the graveyard, she understood. It was noon in the middle of July and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. Renee didn't feel the heat. She didn't know how she could ever feel again.
