tied

tied

denied
from hiding

terrified
of her crying

she can’t bear the
obliterating sound of abandonment

petrified

so

petrified

cracked

cracked
her golden soul

focuses on
the black emptiness
and the white nothingness
within her
without her
without him

without him

without his candlelit presence

with nothing
to console her
but her

fading

cracking

memories

dreaming in digital

dreaming

deliberating

debating

waiting for the
inspiration to emerge
in her sapphire clarity
from beyond the instant

wrestling with the
formation of emotions
pouring from her oceans
of photos and phrases to

crystallize

materialize

realize

a piercing moment
of existence
in the universe

a consuming moment
dreaming
in digital

14 days

14 days

he’s
going away
for two weeks

he
insults me
expects me
to apologise
for his mistakes

he
hurts me
a whore
for him

but i
love him
adore him

and he’s
going away
for two weeks

i don’t
i don’t know what to do

hard to switch off

hard to switch off
the child
button

forgot to charge my ipod
no music
for the ride in or
lunch time

thought it was okay
can deal with that
just buy a mag and
chill out

forgot to pack my house keys
my folks decided
they were coming back
late
after numerous assurances
this morning
they would be back
on time

spent
the evening
miserable

wandering around london
in my long ass trousers
dragging in the rain
no music to keep
my spirits up and
a long wait before
i could jump
in the shower
and relax

geez

a mistake

–a mistake–

she said
and giggled
as she flowed
from one side
of the room
to the other

she growled
with glee as
david bowie glared
in bright red
on the walls

i chuckled
behind my lens
behind my smile

as her momentary
middle finger rose
and randomly broke
my distant
solitude

with
the snap
of the camera

may cause dizziness

–may cause dizziness–

said the orange bottle
and the peachy pharmacist
jockeying the counter

as if i didn’t already know
as if i cared about

bloody unlikelihoods to travel my time

insecurities

insecurities

during his early morning walk
he paused by the street lamp
to wrestle more intensely
with his whirling worries

as the dawn yawned with its first light
the dim swish of an opening window
swivelled his exhausted eyes
into the curious breeze

through the posts and branches
her quick rivers of windswept hair
reflected a layered gold tinged
with the ruby of her robe

and she was gone

but for a brief moment

he had forgotten all
his troubles in
the world

connections | remix by jennyboozz

Connections

It is strange what connections remain between people.

Almost like we sense each others need for emotion, and we transport little love vessels to one another, just in time to heal the past.

Tunnel vision and lover-like waves of trusting emotions cascading down from beams of sunrays, transferring through the beauty we touch as nature. We tangle in everyday stresses forgetting we are part of nature, a creation intended for love and joy; we must not forget that.

This world denies us of our true everlasting peace. We can try and hide what little happiness and love deep inside, so the world doesn’t claw at our dreams.

that night | remix with “pilljar” text

that night

of all the warm summer days
and cool autumn nights
i remember that calm july evening
i remember it the most

the anniversary of our chance encounter
in the sci-fi section of the bookstore
dressed in my shirt and tie
for a cheesy business card photo

she approached from the fantasy section
a question in her intense eyes
my shocked breathing cut as short
as her cute delicate hair

“do you work here?” she asked
“i wish i did” i shakily laughed
insecure with my first impression
but helped her find her novel

this anniversary was our third
a deserted july evening
walking down our favorite hill
along the narrow moonlit river

the scent of vanilla in her hair
the smell of combustion in the air
the fireworks crackling as desperately
as the fears in my mind

she handed me the book without a word
the one i bought her those years ago
“the time traveler’s wife” it said
by someone named audrey

i stayed on the hill as she left me behind
left me unseeing unhearing unfeeling and falling
my soul shred into as many pieces
as the wet pages at my feet

i can’t forget her giggles
her figments and fashions and fragments

i can’t forget her photos
her shadows and shapes and smiles

i can’t forget that dark july evening
a thousand miles from myself

“do you work here?” she asked
i wish i could’ve said “no”

wednesday morning

wednesday morning

i hobbled into the kitchen
to prepare some work lunch
and grab some breakfast

and this time

the early sunlight
caught my eye
long enough

to burn itself into my memory

caught

by surprise

as he contemplates

his next

choice

and

chuckles

at the colossal

absurdity

of it
