absence

makes the heart grow fonder. it doesn't stop, I ache and long only for her. I somehow don't think that will ever change.

That makes things in the here and now difficult, but I guess that's a cross I have to bear. Not sure if it will ever come to anything, but I am what I am, a guy in love with a huge capital L.

Taut

Indifference is taut

a drumskin stretch of avoidance,

skirting issues

without even the stiff

formality of pleat

there is no wrap

no snug cling

of hand to hip

or sigh to skin

instead

we are defined

by what we are not

by where

we do not meet

and on the flesh

of this nothingness

we can both feel

the prickle of anticipation

a sixth

un-sense

the crossed hairs

of inevitability meet

with the focus of future

the scope

tastes cold on the back

of necks

drumming taut, drawing closer

can you hear it?

A tattoo

un-skinned

ghost whisper

on the wind

sweet-bitter scents

orange blossoms, distilled

yesterdays corpse

unburied, unmourned, undead

I shiver in my aching need

there is - can only - be One

and the bells

toll
