Coat my aspirations
with yr wicked
half-light & I'll
swear I was
making it all up.
Go back to sleep. I
didn't mean to stir
the cauldron or
spike the canvas.
I meant to destroy
the original &
for yr pleasure
I still might.

You did make it all up
We all improvise as we go
History is made
Broken
To tell with new twists
Oral or written history’s
Changed with each tale
So
Stir or spike
Rest
Yeah
If you like
I’m just saying maybe
A few highlight strokes to your left cheek is all you need
And that history does not disappear but
It is forever revised
The future can be used to enhance it with highlights
Or forever adding more shadows
Whether you bring light to the subject is entirely up to you
Rest
Yes
But only
If you like

good idea
too much light will cause the image to be flat just as smoothly as too much darkness
~K your poems are very textured

Hey K, you have a very Kryptic style to your writing we have to figure out the key (words) as well as the message. Loved it and keep painting with shades and shadows it is my favorite kind of writing. "C"

there is a bit of wickedness to this one. Something like don't tempt me, or I just might in spite of you. Loved it.

riddles on the muses' tongue
begs the shadows' limbs to stretch
across the gap that isn't there

You should know,
everything I do
I do for You.
The lies You told,
I made My own.
I never wanted
Your eyes open
& filled with pain.
I'll go away.

compassion can kill
to experience no pain
is to experience nothing
past

no pain

goodbye
Feel what it is....

There is no such thing
as a tender indifference
or apathetic wishes,
There is pain
& it's absence,
working in consort
explaining
What it is
in thin lines
