		<description>  &quot;These of living emanate a formidable light&quot; 
 A mockery of this spectrum against rose coloured walls. 
 Supposed wisdom in the patterns I leave against his knowledge 
 -this is all I could ever amount to. 
   
 Repeat it for your love, your pains, you loss. 
 Repeat it for all its worth; this coil. 
 It grows ever more bitter with each new prayer 
 And there is no death to look forward to.

		<description> Everyone follows with covered eyes 
 I sit at his feet and swallow the Gita 
 Clouded vision and cobra-choked 
 Breathing exhaled prayers and smoke 
 He fails to see that I am not his Sati 
   
 This blind belief of silent truths 
 I watch as his throat turns blue 
 And give myself as I've been told 
 Third eye opened to behold 
 Another thing I can no longer do

		<description>I realised it was time.
I listened to that voice in the back of my head
constantly whispering that things have got to be better than this.
The old cliches of love finding a way
If you love someone set them free
You only hurt the ones you love.
I have the bruises to prove it.
He cried. I cried. He held me and said he was sorry.
I told him I was too
and he made me a packed lunch and said he couldn't let me go.
I wiped my tears against his neck and told him I couldn't ... more  </description>

		<description> I found myself thumbing through the yellowing pages of life, ignoring the obligatory small print and choking on my daily doses of ennui and bullshit. The blank space where I used to stand stares back at me with the silent accusation of my weakness. I find it impossible to explain why I let it happen. Why it continues to happen. All the time aware that in the morning we will pretend that everything is fine. I'm the girl screaming at the strobing images of idiots who put themselves into this position and never escape. I call them fools and roll my eyes at their sob-story realities, safe in the knowledge that my own is competition for any of theirs.  ... more  </description>

		<description> I can remember the taste of sugar  The smell of motor oil strong on my skin.  He smiled and told me I was fine  everything would be fine  and I rember thinking  you don't tell people how they feel  you ask them.     He gave me a sweater.  Too big, too heavy.  He stroked my hair   told me I was beautiful.  I looked at my shoes  scuffed toes and dust  and thought about birds  flying south for the winter.     He said he would drive me home.  I said I could walk  and I collected my things   ... more  </description>

		<description> Surely a fish only knows he is wet if he has something to compare it to.   Being dry, for example.  But a dry fish is a dead fish  which is not a good thing  for the fish.     So, based on this thing  (the thing with fish not knowing they are wet)  How on Earth can I be sure that I'm alive?    </description>

Offer me cream filled eclair and bespeak will I,Yet, provide compassion and i will bleed likepricked blue steak into crisp green salad.

Coerced hostility to toughen my edges(rub lakes of salt into fresh gashes)and I become another nothing storm.

		<description>with the moonlight

blue caress

on every ripple

shimmer

finger trace

embrace

cup of your breast

test and taste

wrapped your legs

and pressed

the sun would never touch

but with the dawn

we turn and burn

with nothing but

those scents

and spent sighs

lost without

and shouted

lacking words

and slipped inside

breathed into me

to see and shake

heartache

and break me

she

the one who saw

the flaw of amber

flickers licked

and eyes disguised

sweet shudders

pink and pinch

and ride

deep in subside

the things you didnt know

the things that I could show

		<description> India is dust
Brightly coloured plastic
and cement

Cows sleep in the shade of trees
Children sleep in the shade of cows

A suffocation of car horns
Street sellers and red  
Baking afternoon sun 
and hot tiles

Rivers of rotting garbage
that nobody can see



India is silence and respect
Bowed heads
Pressed palms

Singing crickets
and sun blanched geckos

Sacred waters 
Wide eyed children
Centuries of tradition

Stray dogs
and jungle cats  
India is broken buildings
and beggers

Sorrow and santuary  Contradiction and consequence

The saddest place I have ever seen </description>

shredding flesh from bonewith bare hands and pointed teethwas my way of showing how muchi miss you when you go

after dismantling your lifei climbed on boardto ride you as light ebbedfrom your eyes

wanted to give you one last thrill(from me, not her,from me) before holding your heartin my clenched fist

		<description>My grandfather told me the worst smell in the worldis the smell of burning flesh and rotting bodies.

He told me quietly, under his breath,like it was something I shouldn''t know.

He used to tell me I was as perfect as a flowerwhile we sat on the creaking back porchand I watched him roll withered little cigarettes.

I accepted all his advice as if they were fablesthings that became part of my illusions of adulthoodlong before the real world sat on my shoulders.

And I promised him that I would never go to war.

for just a little bit too long.

Beneath everything I have ever believed inthere was only everyou.(The inside of my mouth always tasted of something you left behind)

Four years on my knees and all I have to show for itare these bruises that wont heal.Blood ruptured beneath the surface of this inevitability.(can bruises leave scars?)

		<description>I am bleeding less, now.

I soaked the blood up with cottonwool

and wrapped myself in gauze and silence.

I''m sure I lost more than I thought

because now my skin is pale,

tender to touch

and I can''t stop shaking.

You cut me and I bleed I bleed

I bleed.

Salt water.

I should use salt water

to keep out disease.

But the sea is too far away</description>

		<description>found in the boundless

unfound of the skies

behind his eyes

and the swallowing brash

of the crashing waves

the shores must brave

a polished moonstone

in the monsoon of night

held in the light

and then there was blue

nothing but the skies

and the incessant seas

with unfathomable eyes

the day to ensue

the biting salt on my lips

and my hips taking sway

lost in the time delay

the sinking of the sun

unbegun or forever begotten

with taste forgotten</description>

		<description>She was all over covered with tears

Where chasing stars and sand wouldn't help

With old forgiveness and burned afternoons

Saltwater spray

Eyes rolled back to white

We waited and waited

Buses crawled past and plastic tickled the curb

Peeling black from beneath my fingernails

Scratching away at three-week-old dirt

And mosquito kisses

Scuffed heals tapping for three-wheeled chariots

Empty pockets and greying palm-trees

The cows chewing a cud of cardboard and crisp packets

Alcohol sway

Distant drums or traffic rumbles

Or starved stomachs

Prickled with sweat and still with forget

Countig the days 'til she leaves

Blonde from the ... more  </description>

cranberry kisses such sweet rhapsodies behind her eyes 
The broken morning stretches every limb to hide in her shadow 
and I bleed for her I bleed for everything I cannot have 

She holds her tongue against me and I feel her cigarette burns

Chewed fingertips feel like forgotten kisses and taste of ash 
nothing hurts because nothing registers and everything is mine 
left to in clenched fists and mark the drip of pointless time 
I bleed for her and cherish everything I cannot have
