Time Swallowed Tango

DNA Stranded Alien Poetry--ZO

chilled out Spectres

worn out feet

bags of grasping tiny plans

reflected in the etched homeless soul

breaking shells with hurried masks

twisted tune

love written empty tomb eyes weeping doves and flys

frightened clouds, skylines and shrouds

pregnant tourist forgetting the birth

forcing love to return

captive dripping silence

crowded dense halls of confusion

smashed up crowns

sharp cutting jewel

violent plastic melted jail

the vanish-

vision vomited around and around

sickness a riverbanks scowl

bleached caress drowned

tormented inquisition flounders

limestone scratched fools

whispers slash a lovers ships

digg times haunted ditch-

blended blooded palms

3am hear the darkness praying

outside coffee frayed

spilt, created, given, finished

tango in broken arms of gentle disease

reluctant moon an executioner

refuses days gloved decision

me the plan grieved,

carried in cleopatras arms

silence the charm in void

surreal poetry
