  • scatterleaf

    here, her season blows in
    hair dancing, standing razors ledge
    wings stretched in embrace air

    scatterleaf and fallen umber
    we ache for her voidkiss
    to carry us breath for wind
    while thunder hooves drive
    hearts to pound
  • night skin you, day skin you

    night skin you, day skin you

    a dream of
    night skin you & day skin you
    crawling from the barrows
    to give to hold, drinking you in
    before the everblind

    leave me to slumber at
    the foot of your altar
    with peekaboo sunshine
    warming the empty of eye
    let this mantic fade from view

    a nightmare of
    night skin you & day skin you
    crawling from make-dust
    from the depths of our youth
  • first kiss

    [response]

    stone raven black
    her slow hand turns
    on the moon
    in lace and silhouette
    waiting on dusk
    to kiss me
    a bridge closer home,
    ever to her side

    [call]

    Laughing into the fire
    Is it always like this?
    Flesh and blood and the first kiss
    The first colors, the first kiss

  • riders

    come the riders of the storm
    with their galleons and steel
    with their spinning and yearning
    to rip down gossamer veils, all

    winds tearing through and calling
    for to take up the night's ride
    here comes the deadliest season
    lock your doors against that cry
  • sitting

    at slipping out of no-thought 
    while at doing no-thing
    remembering the beforewhen
    where sitting was just
    for the sitting and
    considering a return
    to not doing anything
    but sitting once again
