Lost Perspective

 

Desiccated forsaken gritty distant hideaways

Searching for deadwood buried corpses

Rubble strewn soft shoulders crumbling

Pockmarked dirt roads leading nowhere

 

Earth worn out wind-blown chances

Airtight hourglass overturning half-empty promises

Shifting quicksand swallowing evasive illusions

Clotted wayward snakes writhing after

 

Image fades roads run out

Among ditches dwindling shadows quiver

Fossilized angel traces pulsating veins

Receding hairline fractures left behind

 

 

Massage Message

 

Massage parlors ageless pretty maidens

Doctoring kneads to client demands

Kept company polite service providers

Fragrant wildflowers stem fantasy cells

 

Brassy knuckles crack stubby tipsters

Thumbnails dug in trumping spades

Craving gentler strokes swelling grope

Scrubbing ticklish foreplay bloated egg

 

Wearing only beads of sweat

Costume jewelry pretense neatly stowed

Limits vanish like time running

Through elusive aromatic oily finger-bones

 

Contoured depression nubile breasts one

Slightly bigger than the other

Baby milk gushing from aroused

Nipples suckling formula teething pacifiers

 

Knowing wisdom adroit digits practice

Soothing balm remedy for grief

Scales falling off shed snakeskin

Perusing brail while enduring pain
