Vulgar.Hands.Undress

By BeautifulCalamity

-these forever hellos..

: This morning :

I woke upon a bed of needles,
tipped and tripped with liquor.
Soft and sweet illusioned,
comfort from myself.
I kissed them and bled my own as they embraced me,
cutting : 'do not feel'
Cause tomorrow will always be perfect,
but we'll rest our hearts today.


I want you to kiss her along my eyelids
so that the patterns sleep gracefully
like your tongue on her skin-
your hand on my face.
You love us both, yes- you want us both.


The 'other' savage lover woke her sad eyes today,
dialed your number and moaned some metaphors. .
Your voice on the other end, dancing inside
the strangled wires..
Dancing & tapping
.

Professing to myself
[I was gold & she was copper]


"Don't think I don't care, cause I love you more than
anything. ."

Is love leaving?- Because tonight is the night.
Our end- restfully swaying in my peace.
My heart to pieces,
but my love never fractured...
never torn.


.: : and then there is her : :.

her soft mouth interrupted by terrible tongues,
and her bent-kiss wings were touched from claws..
this butterfly was beautifully angelic,
atmospheres deteriorate.
Lifting.Swooning
Darling, she is you..

bending

to

the

sky

[I loved her death]

It's been too long- my eyes sting from imagining you
next to me. .
So I sleep, let the stars come up again
& I sleep.

Maybe saying goodbye just isn't something I can do,
So I'll let myself believe in neverending
kisses and forever hellos..


Blue eyes-
They aren't pretty anymore
Always, sometimes-
Red eyes..

and you're all poets out there,
so you feel my language as though
it was your own body..
dreaming, weaving. . making love.

tell me you couldn't stand to be with.out me,
tell me you've missed me.
but twist it to the motion of the clock. .

the clock [beats]
you
her
me
us
them
all of you


the beautiful ones I've looked for,
and for once-mumbling goodbye has made me realize
I cannot leave. .
I will never leave.

the [clock] beats
orange
alcohol
stereo
broken
glass
whores
.

I've not been high,
so please forgive me.
Im in love with you,
so please forgive me..


and minutes later I am the perfect bliss..
your dark eyes.soft lips
I think I could fall here,
I would fall if you weren't holding me to the bed..


[hands on me, cause baby-that's wanting]


Your words are vulgar,
spewing from your face.
Perhaps you just feel not this pain..

but we're in love with you,
cause we love to love those loving loves
. .
l o v e
does
not
lift
me
anymore
. .

gold&copper

take the breath straight from my chest
your.place
. . . .

no longer yours,
as these forever hellos are undressed
by vulgar hands

    "and you're all poets out there, so you feel my language as though it was your own body.. dreaming, weaving. . making love." Jesus. I could have worn out my quotation mark key putting down all the lines that moved me throughout this. Honest and uncalculating, you layed this out wonderfully and broke my heart in the process. Beautiful.

    wickedly beautiful, poetic brillance! you just couldn't help but love it way to write! ears/Seattle I think of my favorite freedoms in dark writing is that..we as dark writers can "ply" the layers and textures "not" enslaved to the structures or formats as some of the other genre's are...this is a fine example of that...the writer allowing the ink...to...Free, consume, control, and release! loved it!

    astounding in it's complexity and emotional content, no less than I'd expect from you. Gold & copper? You're just too much to behold sometimes...If there is an inner circle of life, you are most certainly at the center.
