"...Get rid of your wife. Give up your mistress. Give up your hopes and your fears. Sow your children out in the woods. Give up the substance for the shadow. Give up your easy way of life, and that which passes for a job with a future. Take to the roads."
- andre breton, 1923

tentativity
increasingly,
i've been diminishing in think and feel,
only the tentative.
the dog who never catches its tail
am i running for nothing?
or nothing runs from me.
as i try to paint the colour back
to your pictures of white and black
your pictures linger to remind me...

Danae
she was fair and soft and had long auburn hair. auburn, that's what they call it. i would call it gold satin, that perhaps Zeus while impregnating her left them wet with gold rain. but i wouldn't, like Zeus did. so i did what i could.
and a light broke from her skin and illuminated the night sky.
Zeus was not pleased, she was.

creeds
you believe in coffee grounds,
tea-cup omens, gambler's chance:
i believe in your eye's dance.
you believe in fairy tales,
dreams and lucky days or ill:
i believe the lies you tell.
you believe in some vague God,
a special Saint who guards you here,
for so much sin, just so much prayer.
i believe in coloured hours
blue and rose, when your delights
are bared for me through sleepless nights.
in all that i believe, my faith
is so profound, so deep, so true,
that i can only live for you.
