When I am old I plan to live in a trailer full of cats.
I'll talk cat talk and walk cat walk
and dream of birds and rats.
I'll eat cat tuna and meow at the moona

Oh dear readers.
Please accept my apologies for my crude and uncivilized tongue...
(I am allowed to use the word tongue aren't I, not quite sure) .
I care not to offend or upset the delicate balance of your universe by my expression of thought and feeling, as rudimentary or primal as they be..
...

What spell could be cast to take us back in time?
Where is the genius who has conquered time travel when we need him,
or her, most?
To what deity must I pledge my service to who can bring
...

Your baritone swirls through my senses.
Rich like swirls of chocolate falling from the spoon to my waiting tongue.
Visions of glittering golden whirlpools in the afternoon sun, eye candy to my ears.
Timbre, plush and warm envelops.
...

Why can't I live in the moment?
I keep searching for emotion that is profound in trivialities.
I read ahead or fall behind, either way missing the meaning.
My shore lays exposed, easily ravaged by the yawning sea,
...

I am a dinosaur on display,
See how ridiculous I act?
I am expressing sounds unheard in this arena.
Expectations of excellence? Wtf?
...

You would never let me in.
No matter how close, you were never able to let down your defenses.
I gave all that I am.
I know it's not much but it was all I had.
...

Oh but what a sight for sore eyes!
Six four, orangutan arms and gun metal eyes that narrow like a bird of prey.
I feel ' congested ' when I think of your touch.
I feel congested all of the time.
...

You answered questions never asked.
How can this be?
Your eyes were blue, the color used to see dreams and futures unraveled.
Did you cast your runes to predict my thought?
...

And Luna asked Sol, why do you hide me away?
Is it because I change from day to day?
I am a sliver of gold in the darkness of night,
or a pale shadowed orb lighting the lovers' path at night.
...

We carry our dead upon our backs.
Old skins protecting us from the new.
These talisman provide us no magic, no fortune.
All grief and sadness, they are
...

One more hour with you. One more moment in time to smell your skin,
to hear your heartbeat in my ear.
Lay with me again giant!
I want to taste your kiss, feel your skin on mine, be
...

Memories ramble across the tracks of my mind.
Certain touches,
words,
kisses.
...

Rivulets of silver make crystalline track marks as they flow.
I look for you everywhere I go.
I see you everywhere we went.
Perhaps you sheltered me from some greater evil...
...

How can pain inspire as much, if not more, than love?
I regret the day we met and yet, I wonder how I've ever
lived without you.
The real world disappears as if by sleight of hand when
...

And a year has passed between us.
An eternity in days counted by the heart.
You exist in another place and time, with other damsels
in distress and jesters in your court.
...

I did not know how I would feel if I got the news.
You think you know, but you don; t.
I used to say the devil don't die.
But he did.
...

Do you wonder why I don't tell her?
Do you believe it is because of you...some effort to save you?
Arrogance in its highest form!
There's no saving you my dear one!
...

The dragoness sleeps in her dark lady cave,
her tail, covering her eyes like a cat by the hearth.
She prefers her silence as she dislikes most with voices and words.
She has found they feed her fire which she keeps stilled, fearing the damage she can inflict.
...

When you look in the mirror tell me what do you see?
Are you really the man that you thought you would be?
Is it hard to maintain the appearance of good,
when you know that so often you don't do what you should?
