She Peach

You perceive a nectar
but bitter
to taste
I can only promise the idea
I don’t recommend the sweet
would surely
make you choke
Disastrous!

You Can Quote Me (yet again)

Friends with benefits
doesn’t always sit
well with me
but then I guess
it depends
on the man
summoning me.

Weirdos on the train
everyday
Same shit
Different colour

Come to the party; there
You have my invitation
don’t you give me
no excuse.

The book overflowing
words melt through
the pages
the written history
mine true possession
full of prose
no one knows.

Filling in the spaces
Trading places
with a blank sheet
desperate to meet
her dipping pen
a pause
in the script
She shakes the ache
from her hurried
hand – and
writes again.

Your Voice in Cigarettes

In calling
You materialise
my cool premonition
Thirty minutes ago
and now at my submission
I play with words
Play like a boy
Pressed to my ear
so close to me
I long for your warm
and settle for
Your voice in cigarettes
tinny, familiar
telling me
No on can compare –
my [beautiful] girl.
