Ash

your eyes have cremated me
ash
everywhere
the ashes of my being
floating
everywhere
the recesses of heart
blown
everywhere

Void

Did we breathe?
Am I just now coming up for air?
Blue
The earth saturated in colour
Seeping hues stain my landscape
Fragmented cliffs
My hands grasp the bed
Eyes burst open
My mind is raw
I am not there
My chin is raw
There is no there
My heart is raw
The void of our being.

Neopolitan Dreams - Lisa Mitchell

You'll go and I’ll be okay,
I can dream the rest away
It's just a little touch of fate, it will be okay
It sure takes its precious time, but it’s got rights and so have I

I turn my head up to the sky
I focus one thought at a time
I do not let the little thieves under my tightly buttoned sleeves
You couldn’t be alone, the time I feel like I am walking blind
I have nowhere, I’ll have time

There are no legible signs
There are no legible signs

I like the way that you talk,
I like the way that you walk.
It’s hard to recreate such an individual game

You wait your turn in the queue,
You say your "sorry's" and "thank you’s"
I don’t think you’re ever
A hundred percent in the room
You’re not in the room
You're not in the room

Deepest, of the dark nights
Here lies, the highest of highs
Neopolitan Dreams, stretching out to the sea

You wait you turn in the queue,
You say your "sorry's" and "thank you's"
I don’t think you’re ever
A hundred percent in the room
You’re not in the room
You're not in the room

Convulsion

My insides are being harvested to my mind
Body twisting and turning to my convulsive thoughts
The tongue is quick to pass judgement
The tongue was quick to taste poison
So potent in your appeal
Drawing everything around you near
You whisper your intentions
Then scream your agenda into my body
Writhing from the pleasure of impurity
Desparately wanting all and none of you
Knowing you are an empty shell of a man, what could have been a man.

Tonight

The night is still
I hear the cars on the highway, a mile away
Mosquitoes are no longer a threat in this awkward fall warmth
Yellow leaves cling to bare limbs illuminated by street lights
The black cat who wanders my neighborhood is perched on the hood of my car
His eyes like mirrors
Watching to see if I will approach
No moon shines on me
She greeted me through the trees last night, bright and wonderous
Tonight she sleeps behind the clouds

Sedation

Stepping through a pinhole of hope
Only to find a painted brick wall blocks my progress
Banging my head on the dream of revenge
Thoroughly enjoying the laughter from above
Angels dropping like flies
From the open heavens
Splattering on the windshields of Hummers.

Passing Car

After the car passed,
I was left standing with a muddy dress.

Diversion

Your face haunting my thoughts
Eyes closed to hold onto your likeness
Keep them shut to prolong your fade to black
Night after night you have been coming to me
Different dreams
Assorted imaginings
A collection of our own short stories
All fiction
All lies
Exceptionally entertaining

Morning

As the night falls into day,
my mind awakes to beauty.

Mosaic

Faith on the wind
I feel my face
Limbs
I know that my heart is evil
I see evidence when it preys upon faith
Even when it is not available
A peak above a pit
It sways back and forth
When this is real
The dark soul breaths life
Into a broken spirit
For the soul knows the results
It rips and shreds tomorrow
Which mosaic sings of a brighter soul?
