like lion, like lamb,
the friendly gazes of a
desperate sunset

desperate sunset
always reaching, just beyond
the drowning skyline
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

the drowning skyline
avoids crumbling on itself
neon fights with black

neon fights with black;
a flickering sign struggles
to be read at night
When you're faced with something you don't understand, I think the most natural thing but also least interesting thing you can be is afraid.

"to be read at night"
post-it on piles of prose;
my bedside table.
I was born to speak all mirth and no matter.

the warm light flooding
through overhead lights; we are
not yet forgiven.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

not yet forgiven,
hands still holding anchors tight
and trying to swim
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

southern poetry
travelled far across ocean
folktales kept alive
I only put my signature on big cheques.

folktales kept alive
with a thread of truth and lie
mingled in magic
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

hovered in the air
a feather-wish, raindrop-thought;
just a whisper whim
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

just a whisper whim
to seek love for dying heart
as it shreds away
I only put my signature on big cheques.
