Soft little beating In with the blackened ink heart Inside my mouth Endless germs spew venemous hate at my dismay Dismantled dogs lay about my lawn And I bite their bones Belted laces wrapped in gold Their pelts are my own weavings Until my heart stops beating I'll beat all my guilt Into life Within an inch of it Change is within My Treasure Trove of Sins Licks from salt scar the tissues And I'll keep dying Eventually breaking life A new asshole Make it stink

Shining in the basking light these was these little specks of dust. They grew so violently, so extravagantly, until I blew it all up. I ended the shine, the mast, it broke. And the glimmer shined no more. It was lost, forgotten, a glimpse in my eye. Forever gone. Forever lost.

I am scared, numb and mindless with fear Hunting for my translucent god The figure I could never imagine And the force that kept me going Every door I see is dark Every face is darker still Sometimes I cannot see Sometimes I cannot hear Sometimes I cannot breathe And the panic sets in Colder than the fear An answer to my prayer Comes knocking on my wrist The choice is made One last breath One last doubt One last pain My translucent god Was never loud enough -Melayna Ross

january vomits up what i don't know what to do with myself its breeze that blows the dust from memories framed anew, like new thoughts for me new heavy thoughts of old times but when i form your naked body there beside me heavy in its pesence, its beauty, your glory for it all to be so small again, like in august you are my august you are my golden sunlight for such is the brightness of your soul i saw shining through your eyes i looked into your eyes and said, he has blue eyes i looked into your eyes and i was tortured for to gaze into your eyes, into the perfection your soul… was a curse of petrarch oh the eyes the eyes
