Velocity

Show me Velocity
and I’ll feed you adrenaline
Sculpt me a landscape of fire and ice
and I’ll teach you how to drown, not swim
Take my breath as yours
shed your shoes of leather and skin
dance with the flames that beckon you
there are no lessons to begin, no nuns to grade your sin
The angels would hide their wings
if they could see us now
the curtain has fallen, my colors shown
and we’ve forgotten to bow
Tip toe back to me when reality
want to bind you from seeing
for I will sacrifice all that is lost
to find you and ravage your sense of well-being

Longitude Latitude Attitude

Where horizont and diagon meet
Linear points of time and measure
But you don’t know me
Key code familiarity
Easy-to-find places
But do you know where to find me?
Spin the globe gleefully
Close eyes and point
Slowly peek at index tip
Quest not, fire map
Finding me is easy
When you find you…
That is where I will be
Red line meets blue line
Attitude harmoniously

Calling You

Hello?
I’ve been calling
No numbers dialed
Electronics none
Fiber optic
Don’t run that cable
No service in this area
I’ve been calling
Heart digital display
Hear my own ringtone play
Arms reaching
Ears strained
Pulse, beat goes my brain
Fingertip pulse away
Calling you …
Will it feel the same way?

This Day

You remind me of this day
Bluish-green feelings along the way
At first I remember and the smile eases the sun’s ray
But I told you last, I didn’t love you anyway
Seagulls calling on misty breeze lane
Daylight becomes nightfall in plain clothing shame
Sapphire waves claim loyalty to the gentleman caller game
Even a tippy-toe juvy knows the rules of the lion’s mane
You remind me of this day
Butterscotch afternoons were hazy with malaise
I can still recall the glance from the second store yesterday
Wrought-iron visual, callous facial display
Ah, the stars are twinkling and winking just for me, I say
I play fool to their wicked heart-warming disarray
I carved your name in soft petals, metal gray
But I told you first, I’d love you always
