Stefanie Fontker Poems

Shall we murder eternity,
And sleep upon dead clouds?
I have drunk sips of
Your poisonous immortality.
...

War is her first love,
And death is her mistress. 
Sitting in fire and raping
What few flames dare to burn. 
...

There is a woman,
Shrouded in mystery
That claims much.
To know me, and to love
...

She dances with men,
Naked but clothed.
Praising a daughter
That's a wolf dressed
...

Close to my heart,
There is an empty space.
Waiting for your return,
So that you may fill it.
...

Waiting for winter,
I am here, always here.
But the storm does not
Ever come when asked.
...

I have seen you
Soaking through
The deepest grounds
And into tree roots,
...

I doubt I will ever
See blue skies
My weather is grey
And my heart red
...

Smiling by day
Weeping by night
It is a story
Told many times
...

You are a neutron star,
Spinning into darkness
Waiting to explode
Holding onto space for
...
