Adolescence




 (This is for the mislead youth finding a way through…) 

A statue in a four walled prison,
    Entrapment screaming in rage….
Like the moonlight bleeds in its crimson,
    A wounded pigeon without a cage…

The wind and its carnage,
    A wall that chants rebellion…
The lamp with a taunting hemorrhage,
      A loser with a medallion ….

The gift with a ribbon of curses,
    A feather to write a book…
The wooden box with no roses,
    A string that’s got no hook…

The firefly in a jar of wax,
    A candle with a wooden wick…
The knight with a marble axe,
    A flower on a porcelain stick…

The paint on a broken glass,
    A ring on a swollen thumb…
Coffee inside a woolen flask,
    A memory sunk in rum…

The flight to a landing plane,
A chime on a dead telephone…
The spite in a laughing face,
    An eyelid carved in limestone…

The nicotine in a stubbed cigarette,
    A weed in a tulip’s garden…
The tint in a street light silhouette,
    A sear in a winter jargon…

She

She’s a lily that blooms a year,
She’s madness in a woolen sear…
She’s all I am, all I can hear,
She’s my precious tear…

She’s breath and all that breathes,
She’s a raindrop in an angel’s teeth…
She’s life and all that heeds…
She’s her, and she’s all I need…

She’s a flower as I’m the bee,
She’s the root and I’m the seed…
Born is a slapping of love pure and deep,
She’s love, She ‘s my love indeed….
