John Kipling Lewis Poems

endless walking
where my mind is calm
and hungry.
...

intoxicated by your memory
my vision blurs
my breathing is quickened
my stomach floats and
...

I woke alone,
ignorant of your absence.
I woke alone,
knowing what I can not have.
...

I used to drink myself to sleep.
I found comfort in the bottle.

I remember the taste on my lips,
...

There's a smile inside
I can find it when I'm alone
in a cafe when it rains.
...

Pink is the new Black.
Salmon shirt for your office, goes well this season with that tie.
...

Unmortored brick wall,
ivy pushing block from
crack, there we hid and
played.
...

Baby's head, so soft and quiet.

While mother looks on in shock its head cracks and bursts and spits blood and brains across the bus window. Already the large black man behind me has jumped me from behind. A mob from the front seats kick and stomp me endlessly as a mother screams in disbelief. As I lose my thoughts I can't for the life of me remember what I just did.
...

Loving me is a waste of life.

You'll find me delicious at first. I'll come for you and you'll
feel like the only person in my world, because you will be.
...

The grey clouds are heavy enough to be my covers and as I pull them over me to hide from it all I feel all consumed.

I hide from;
noise
...
