before the kiss
breath tumbling from
parted lips like
easy mist rolling
over rocks in
the waves one
moon pulls forward
people for a moment like
planets closing on
tension for only
a second while
between them generations
of warring arise
pulled by the cosmos
closer to this pout
as a frozen
dance with leg
extended and quivering
on fractions above
a canyon of a floor
pressing on new air
refusing to collapse
as a mass of bony letters
challenges the bumpy road
to pull them from an open car
speeding curving hills spewing
gravel off the bridge to
hasty water beneath
dragging the haunted heels of
a summer almost finished
without this kiss while
grasping the haste it
needs to land and
bury for some
other side of
tangible emotion
before it dies
so instead you pull
away and let those
years linger

No Kissing
No kissing.
That was the agreement.
Yielding pink skin parting to whisper
"This only happens once."
Two years and I hear nothing from that careful mouth. Two years and not one of your fingers found a way to hit "send."
Unexpectedly your feet
(soft
you called them "pussy feet.")
carried you close
after two years.
"No kissing."
I can't argue with the force in your words.
Two eyes that brighten to compliment the smile on that careful mouth when after two years all of your fingers wave, "hello."
Ten toes support a tentative step forward and two years are forgotten.
Literature
breathe deep.
i am letting you go.
not in any grand symbolic gesture
or split second epiphany.
it will be quiet
and i will hold my breath.
and exhale
you will no longer rule my heart.
or haunt my bones

On Becoming A Woman
I want...
to wail out the blues
draped in red silk
I want
to collect writers and musicians
wrap them round bed posts,
breathe in their essence,
trace lonely hearts with bitter tongues
and have artists paint lives over humming flesh
I want
to be an asshole
to not care
I want
to indulge wickedness,
drown in sin
shoot long shots of debauchery
and come out purer for the experience
I want
to have my heart broken
by a man worthy of my tears
I want
to be desired by angels
while desiring only the devilish within them
un-tempered by reason or self doubt
and laugh in the face of judgement

This is so well done. It flows beautifully, it doesn't lose track of itself, it's not long. I love it. I think this is my favorite so far.
