little black dress stilettos

us manifested


 Lucky you18.09.22

She has that look

She passes me the spliff (sour diesel)

                                                                             that look

Ravenous

sussing 


Any man will do

The right place

Right time

She squats front of me tossing coffee on the lawn.

Aams wrapping around my waist 

lucky you!  She exclaims



 Dionysus rising-22.09.22

In her kitchen

Sussing out   coffee machine (the codes in a closet in Mars-A-Lago)

sunglasses (it’s blindingly bright) jeans

fluffy small dog claimed my shirt (eyeing me suspiciously)

Shower sounds lose jeans

The water reviving her

Even as this radge lover

Making himself known

With slippery loud love


Dionysus was the Greek god of the god of wine and pleasure

Dionysus, she moans




 Fever dream-24.09.22

Pink spider

Legs close around

Long and strong 

me

scarred and pale (history writ in angry raised flesh)

Dying and living

reconciled

Living

On the edge (only people who gone by over It know)

too long

can’t hesitate 

Fever pitch

Don’t want to wake

Leave the fever dream

Pink spider 

What I am taking

Will kill me

not as fast

what’s she giving

leaving at first light

underground

cool dirt feels so good

 Vortex-20.09.22

Her arms waving

I see the currents swirling around her

She’s trying to swim away 

To the place 

Where the man who doesn’t love her 

lives

If she would only 

Come with me 

Lay in my arms

Deep underground 

Where 

Dreams and night terrors 

Are forged.

From

 flowers from China

from

diamonds

from

Souls of children killed before recess

from

cherries from France

from

Joy

from lithium

the taste of as kiss

carried throughout the universe by butterfly’s

as the end of the road not taken 

we could wake to a new dawn and watch the vortex from the light house

dissolve 

Vortex: a mass of whirling fluid or air, especially a whirlpool or whirlwind. 2) dangerous or bad situation in which you become more and more involved

 Cold Beer

Walking into a west TX convivence store under a giant Cold Beer” sign which announces buying beer. The building itself reminiscent of from “Dawn to Dusk “I chat in Spanish with the clerk, I say goodbye going back to the car where an anxious dog waits. Stumbling past. a rack of straw cowboy hats a little Miodelo splashes a fat seemingly unwashed stale smell of cigarettes sweat and failure cowboy. who spins a stream of profanities spewing around. I have those reflexes my beer falls and my hand comes up I press the button the blade jumps out.

“Back off and if that foul convict breath gets closer, I will cut your face off and wear it for Halloween. Prison ink and all”

“I see the clerk picking up the phone. I say you didn’t see anything; honky needs a change of jeans... I will be moving on and if he follows me call an ambulance (in Spanish.) She puts the phone down and smiles. I press the button the blade retracts. “Getting in the car She asks “beer?”

“There’s nothing for me here. Perchance next stop a cold beer in a clean well-lighted place
