Joseph Narusiewicz Poems

Graffiti on the Detroit alley wall
Bluelight horns, late night studios
Muddy and Miles
Chicago, New York, the south
...

Flawed in the garden of lust
Slithering for your black high heels
IN love with the image of a feathered Siren
Silk streets and fishnet shores
...

If you’re reading this
Thank you!
I was here like you are now
Maybe I still am?
...

Respond like a leopard in heat
The ground of being cleansed in sleep
Contradictions as pure as sex
I love your dysfunctional exhibitionism
...

Your premonition is a factory religion
Never sell the truth
Never deal God in a business
Trees worship by rivers
...

Moniker of madness you desire
The loveless life
Fornicators with Greek ghosts
Jewels of the whispering oracles
...

In the silence of love I grow
Sword of pearl understanding
Leave the battles of false pride
Wisdom arrives only in humility
...

Torches on the stonewalls
Iron gate
Trials like hemlock counselors
Widows who killed their king
...

Her bed with stilettos of moonlight
I am her victim
I struggle
Tied in silk desire
...
