aDarkerMind

By Night\'s Secluded Light

by night\'s secluded light

black rook of more a latter day escape.

at home among the daisy chains

with my leeopard spots and the beauty of a yawn.

I have come home ill-prepaired

my mothers milk in uniform

from a waterfall

she was as tall as I was white

hip hip hooray!

again I take no blood

nor do I suckle honey

from your frozen breasts of honeycomb and chives.

flowers but no butterflies

no doomsday priest 

with water in his lung.

it is November, I am hungry.

am now aware of a mother\'s wilderness.

she politely asked I cut my throat

in her room with smiles as bright as death allows.

her blue whale bones

her blue veins breathing treacle through a straw.

what more I ask of Elizabeth now gone?

she is still here

still-born in an annexe made of wax.

her yellow stain of Autumn 

be gone before the ending of a year.

I have less courage than the jesus you aniont

with my bipolar walking home from church.

should I be caught by the ten pins of your lair

brush you hair

and kiss your forehead

twenty thousand times!
