dirt mother

We spent today in fiery undertow
Swirling air and billows of smoke and your breath...
Red
Kiss me on the lips in greeting
"And then came the rain"

A unicorn floats between worlds
I stare at the back of your neck
Only a woman understands the nature of your drive
Sink, deep

I see who sees this truth
I see who hides
I see myself as your heartbreak slips magically through our hands
Going nowhere...

Shake my head, yes...
(too tired for this fight)
I come home and fall into a heavy, black sleep

pretty girl dress

met a kid like yours today
on the occasion of this french photographer's fascination
no words
i described you as my secret lover
there's that look of recognition that passes over their eyes
it gives everything away
it's all that i can do...

i wanted to send him this song but the rules have changed...

"stay out of my dreams"

his friend does not sparkle.
