Prim Rose Laced.
The warm blanket, a feeling that wasn’t too often. Jackson overwrote her as a mistake; failing to realize that friendship: forbears, with the ability to cause growth. Jackson points his finger from his fast little car, turns his face. Rose could do nothing for him, she sits in silence choosing to be—or not to be, his friend.
Violet Rain.
honelix:
She wasn’t one to cheat on a lover. When that time came the act was replaced by difficult conversation, which ended in puddles of love even deeper, or a new friend. Her path wasn’t paved in fame nor fortune; infamous among mice and men. Violet didn’t mind, her path was precisely: hers.
Lalot.
Lalot was last seen tossing foot-shaped cobblestones into the oceans’ bed of sand. She appeared to be constructing a foot path. The legend reads that we all must build a doorway for the secret lover, a way to find each other at the end. Tracks fall off into caves and valleys, ring circles, crossing themselves again. Her tracks weave a net, to catch her falling star. The unknown one, destined to be...
The Milk Bank.
Reality strikes, struck, striking like palms electrocuting executions of cheek. The days air buzz—denser than our world. Threatening to asphyxiate, but never here. Where dreams be, come, master, pieces. Pooled reflections of what we are, beyond sweet milk of deception. At the ebbing banks of day unveil, and become.

Mycenae wades in a warm pool of honeyed milk and rose. Weeping willows lap whirling upon the steaming surface’s aroma. Sweep and swish of tree wind dancers; she prances with, feet of milken mirrorose, toes of emerald. Skin tainted by the iced caress of dawn—all watercolor shades of gold.
To Be, or Not.

My Bitches and Nigga-g’s. I reference me, not thee. With a joke: What do you get when a WASP hits a bar and says hey there bitch, get my drink!? …The irrevocable schmuck of the bar. Now, when a female walks in with her pack of bitches and black widow hoe’s, they have earned rights to their goldin embroidered Satin Bombers and name; by path. One morsel other’s tend to...

The Grass.
“They say it’s always greener, but look at you.” “Bound to brittle hay patch, dressed in parchment, dancing with your crystal parasol… staring at the sun.” Meerweh shoo glances, collecting scenes in slides: Islands of man. Stand. Crystalline. Cool glaciers of Krypton. Embed. Magma. Rapids. Tears, hers; travel groove and bend, of knee, drip—between toes, down, down… down into the cool dark,...
The Pineapple.
perpetuatingthewheel:
Her namesake bestowed the secret: Twist the sharp spiny top. Peel lowest blades. Screw it into dampened earth. Wait.
1,095 days pass. Blades grow long and then a sprout, small—like a prickly pear.
The symbol of hospitality in Hawaii. Pilar excitedly slides glass upon her patio garden.
The fruit’s vanished.

The Best I Can See, Today.
We all know what we’re doing, right? Feel safe here in each other’s arms. Fog clears. Snow melts. Into rivulets, flood. We see runaway love boats: bound two-faced masts and sails. See the image we paint; is our self.
Our model is victim, contingent solely by chance. Or design?

Stand-up comedy.
lets-play:
“Your momma this, your momma that. We all know your momma is too fat.”
Now that was funny. Or was it simply insecurity pointing fingers? I’m sorry, but I find true comedy in that which can reflect on itself, laugh, and in the process help someone else realize something through laughter.
Even something minimal, like brushing your teeth will keep the drill from your pearls.
Salle D'attente'.
Fear of Doc and Dentist.
“Why?” “complications.” “Never here.”
“…You needn’t be awake.” The best jazz plays, I want to inquire it… “Bottom on the table,” “relax” he says. “Relax everything, lean back your head.” “Now cough… louder… cough again.”
Three long Novocain pricks.
“Sounds...

Celeste’s Teal and Orange Runner’s.
Cross country, Track & Field, nitty gritty city streets… treadmills, Celeste remembers respiring tears; how it felt to win a race. Recollecting what it cost to keep sharp, tight, breath in pace. Mostly, Celeste remembers redemption in a short stop; muscles pulsing into pause, embracing the deep of reflection, and sleep.
Some Love to Learn the Hard Way.
Ariadna can be such a dog.
The golden retriever lays in the shade, licking wounds.
Ariadna hopes the world will dull it’s sharp edges.
The doctor was kind, but pain remains.
Sometimes the world needs to know when enough is enough, but the world never listens to wishes of bitches.
Valerie's Dancing.
Today Valerie’s tired
of being strong.
Today Valerie wants to melt, vulnerable and weak
into the right person, for all the right reasons.
Today Valerie wants to be that person.
There she goes.
Frankenstein's Frankincense.
Mary Anne in pen-striped trouser’s— For decades now; Painting Sammy’s eyes Smoky, black, as he Shares her Phantom pain Of what it is to be The other. Build: A small man, Greasy, Combed over, Afternoon shadows Supine spine; Hear her clogging up the hall— Voice like a choir boy, Rising, to the pleasant pitch of Cracked, Pressed-on French-tips scraping blackboards, she-bark, Newport’s,...
