violette sanctuate

enrich gain suffer
the hot chill buffer
running down the steam bed
feilds
like gutter rain
rivers

taming hearts run wild
spent broken free
and running

your press on hearts
slipping free like the
heels of your shoes
fleeting past
the ochre ache
in the sigh past midnight

Press a palm against the
grainy smudged need
like a needles sting
gripped in your clean
smile

this still life
pocket compact
realm

satin mouth
of angel means
and liquid depths
where worlds
unfurl
and the shimmer
of the pain

Though interested in yournew photo and your words!

Press a palm against the
grainy smudged need
like a needles sting
gripped in your clean
smile

Yeah, best stuff i've read in a while..

discrete...off to a different room
to be polite
I was not drinking or using then
and chummed with them
to the line mile by mile

but I know the need
my struggles now again
How else to describe the
beautiful horror as it is

...

Thank You!
