How this, I can see it clearly,
your arm, warm and hairy wrapped around my shoulder
I know it is wrong
the feeling that comes without my awakening
even with closed eyes
I can tell another woman's ring is on your finger
I don't budge
I don't open my eyes
instead I turn to look at your face
its details crafting a new explanation
to the term between the sheets
to synonyms to making love
an orgasm for the lonely times
without feeling the pangs
a throbbing of a definite sin
on a last day of fasting
but in the dream world
coded as in I want you
as in I need you
as in let me touch your body
or allow yourself to touch me once
again, even if I am sleeping
in my sleep.

Dream
I hold no awakening
the minute you catch a sun
as it falls in my head in sleep

blood moon
a blood moon
eats our skies
eats away the clouds
another face to the same star
eats away the anger
keeps still the pain
a blood moon
predicts
the end of an earth
with an earthquake
not a bang
not a whimper
not big or small
just a little shake
who said earth isn't allowed a dance
for her lover,
a heart-torn
blood moon.

a nightmare of hallucination
There's a jaguar that follows your son
into a mouse hole, same available in cartoon
but you are real, flesh and blood in my arms
there's a daughter holding a teddy bear
crying about unborn children
yet she's unmarried
there's you, Kohl filled eyes
brown like pine cones
caressed and written for, for years
there's a moment of fear and love
wrapped like a blanket at once
like it's a thing we cannot deny
existing in the midst of all unexplained
switches, trees swishing over in seconds
transported into another space
that has no bitterness
you are real, flesh and blood in my arms
the jaguar gallops
your son goes into the mouse hole and wildly I wake up.

awake
this is what your voice does
calling in the night-time
it is always beautiful to know
someone else shares your loneliness
in between the hours
you should have been sharing sleep
a dream that reaches
around all the heads you wear
but there you are, tiny, sitting voiceless
listening to a description, while awake
looking out on a nocturnal village
that rest at 3:00 am.

You, a floor and a beat
The positioning of your legs
on the dance-floor
is the only meaning I take out of the rhythm.

A super blood moon, tonight
Keep your eyes on the skies tonight
the witching hour has a spectacular sight
tonight's full moon is the product of three phenomena
it will be a blue moon, a red moon, a super moon
for the times you were red and blue, moaning
the moon will appear larger and brighter
it will also be a blood moon
the shadow of Earth
will lean to breach over the fields
Stargazers, eastern and central will see a clear skies
the Wolf moon falls over us, it had once inspired
mankind, enchanting with witches' calls
packs of wolves hungry
to rare breeds, run after the thirst of blood
yet there are many bleeding without purpose
here is everything you need to know
full moons can be admired
they light up the skies, like fireworks, like phenomena
gathering wolves, witches and men under one roof.

observations of a young new mother
Wavy wintertime
his little hair creates
a break in the rain that’s falling
before the chocolate is consumed
by his little milky teeth

Wakefulness
Hard to be awake these days
when the night-time is a blessing
alcohol, dreams, your soft lips
