Suicidal

Once you say it's over


A jingle; a jinx; an Iberian Lynx


Prancing, running towards extinction


Beyond correction, introspection, and predilection


Out of medication and over your head over the rainbow No


where? Somewhere skies are blue and your box of Lucky Charms is new.

July

Of independence   

Of breathing without a nose

Skyscrapers to shores

3 AM

Words with friends linger
Pitch black sky copper street lamp
List my love for you

Aurora

World is for the birds
Hover the beach and rooftop
Wind beneath our wings

June

All is in bloom now
Black-Eyed Susans attract bugs
I flick you - fuck you

Departure

The solemn, solitary yellow lamp shines on the aquamarine casket as the sun shines on the Atlantic Ocean 

Smiling and looking forty years younger, she floats peacefully amongst a bed of flowery corals

Men women and children come from far and wide, docking their ships and holding their heads at half mast  

She's given so much for the taking, making them pirates, whose time it is to give back, to let go

***

She's sinking now, fully submerged by the ocean, on her way towards the unknown, the dreamt-of :

Atlantis

Remembered forever and forgotten daily

May

I please live my life?

Loved or loathed - ambiguous

A dandelion
