Lost and found (poems from 2017)

Updated: Sep 20


Snapshot (from the ceiling)


Satiated by exhaustion.

Dry mouth, trembling limbs.

Bups on the skin.

Goosy touch,

Two mucking an arch

elongating silence beyond relief.

Words being scared by what they mean




Valentine's song


I am

tickling water around your toes

licking your skin

as I move away

from sin

—the running—

from what hurts the most

my human ribhole

liquid pearl of my throat

bursting to bite your lips

when you come

to kiss

—wet down—

a kiss

dear ghost



Track #1


From where I stand

I only see

The flakes

You didn't care

to chace

With your burning palm

Flawless, their fall

Lights my own

—Tongue—is waiting

The storm

to star




Automaton


"I Love You" —He said

Face working on a steak

What his eyes wont admit

Diggestion would take care

In a week




The Stretch


Such a beautiful toilet

[This place]


Let alone—


Trembling as it aims

[Where?]


Some people can't have a home




Rostros yodados


Otro enjambre

Se lleva el espacio

Gris

El concreto—alambre

Gris

En tu nariz—otro divino aguacero

Sonriendo a las piedras

Que caen del cielo
