High concepts

 Yes, we were more.

Looking at the thing at its core,

to no one's but my shock

we were so, so much more

than eyes alert

to mouths that flirt

in provocation

deep as our thoughts of a hilted cock.

We have our own lore

of verse of temptation,

light and hard conversation,

of shelters, tears and comotion.

So then, now and evermore,

no matter how settled is the score,

we shall be mission,

yearned permission

born of intuition

despite the mind's suspicion

and, above the shadows that left us sore,

pleasure, joy and transformation.

Three of swords, reversed

 Inside the space

you put in between

and I must give

which I hope

- for the flesh is weak -

is only to cope

and turn meek

the pain in two ends within,

never out of hate...

I also wish for a fate

where hearts are still open

to make odd numbers a bit more even,

one where we live

and forgive

and I say to your face

(god-willing, in your embrace)

that you will always have your place...

Where no matter how long

in whatever that chsnges

and happens

once again you may sit and belong

to my life

and my strife.

Here, this that I feel,

the missing,

is still grand.

Maybe if I stop wishing

and let be done the working

at theirs and your good will

the results you all shall grant.

 

And yes, I will always receive the new,

but oh, if only you knew

the much I yearn

for your return

with yet more to be laid bare

and, ready to share,

become more to learn.

A busca pela pessoa redimida 

está no saber que o divino é capaz das mesmas coisas que nós, 

mas consegue ser melhor que nós.

 Às vezes o amor 

dá os versos...

Outras vezes,

ele não cabe neles.

Daydreams

What is the use

of knowing your favourite food

if your heart

is something I've never understood?

Why should I know

your moon and your sign -

only to prove

your words and deeds never align?

Why even tell you 

of my wrath

if you end up as just another

soul who crossed my path?

Why would I bother

wondering about our end

when you don't mind saying

that I shouldn't worry, that you are my friend?

When to remember

about days, years and stars

if even the prettiest memories

are covered in scars?

What could I do

not to cry and instead forgive

what was done to my heart

and what we didnt live?
