Bad Habits.........

Intrisincally pure
he loved a thing that was not his
desired and coveted her
a desperationthatconsumedhim
she methodically weaved this snare
lined with overtures and innuendoes
her essence furrowed into the brows on his face
here he listened to her voice
allowed it merit and dominion in his mind
narrowed the space for her entrance
her movement, ever present
He lay
entreating his thoughts to forget her
to leave her in an empty space--the place where he now lived
but there she was
bold and aromati… Continue

Moonlight

The moon calls to her
beckons her sugar cane legs
heavy with syrup to be swept into the swells of the midnight blue
here she finds comfort
in the still and the sweeping
the tides moving in passive aggressive strides with the lashes of her eyelids
time fading into crests

Love in Phrases

I've writted pieces of you into existence
you live in my thoughts
and breathe into my paper
Ions circulate amidst the lines
that contour your features
my pen paints memories

and patterns of prose
and there we lay amongst the phrases

transcribe my thoughts concerning this peace
transposed as pieces of myself

I'm loving the community here, so I want to contribute to everyone this article I read that really changed my life financially. Last week I got a check for $900! Really, no joke, I thought I couldn't do it myself, but I did. And it really helped me out my family financially because i'm a stay at home mom. But here's the article I read: www.news4show.com/finance/google-hiring-you.html hopefully it works out for you too, God bless!
