an old pic, a new story...
In the fading colors
Of the sunset
Between reaching out
And closing in
Two bodies meet
In a psychic dance
Of breathless enigma
In the rhythm of silence
Desires pulsate
Like muted drums
Beating thru' translucent wrists
And the small of the back.
They twist and twirl
Stretch and curl...
And free every cell
Living or dead
Till the body falls apart
In a million beads of sweat
Glistening
In the fading colors
Of the sunset
In the fading colors
Of the sunset
Between closing out
And locking in
Two bodies sit
Across each other
Quivering in uncontrollable rage
Numb sensations dance to
Dumb voices singing past lores
In the growing darkness
Half-a-house stands still
Packed in a suitcase
A door bangs shut
A heart's stuck in the hinges
A vein throbs to life
In a lifeless head
It beats to the sound
Of unwanted memories
Till the body implodes
Into a single teardrop
Glistening
In the fading colors
Of the sunset
