where does love go?

if u were me
i could tell u
what to do
but you're not
so i have
no clue
i reach out
and run my
fingers down your
cheeks
and around your eyes
and touch you
in many other places
too
some wild spirit
binds me now
to you
i try to get
inside you
your heart
your soul
this illusion
of knowing
this misconception
of connection
try as I may
i can never
be inside you
and you can
never be me
in that way
i can never
tell you
what to do

fb post/Seoul beat

yoshida bros post
i am flying
down cherry blossum
scattered petal lanes
blurred kimono
bright blue hue
from the corner
of my mind 
eh's polish red forest
weaving in and out
red leaves scattering
as i dart around knarled
and wisened trunks
of ancient forest
into the starry nite
screamming down
Seoul city streets
empty and cold
nb's roller derby
i passed on
not letting
anything come
 between my
sense of
what u post and
my response
ur thoughts
cyclon
thru my head
and spill
    out onto this page
life and all its
simplicity
and immmenccce
complexity
pops out onto pages
like a canyon
full of
water
over the eternal
fall

pain

i've
never been
raped
on a crowded
city bus
and left bleeding
on a
crowded city street
to die
or
buried alive
by my father
and grandfather
for talking to
a boy
     but
i have felt
the pain
and irritation
of having
to unload
costco bounty
on my day off
inumerable trip after trip
up the stairs
and no it didn't end there
endless reorganization
to make room in
both of the fridges
   oh the bother
of putting
away my food
that could save
 10 starving families
 for a month

her

"if i pretend
to be her
my soul is
pure
at least a little bit"
i heard that
in a movie
but writing it down
i feel better
at least
a little
bit

nothing

tendrils of blue smoke
frozen dreams
lost down some
empty canyon
of long gone hopes
bodies of wrecked
relationships
tangled in the
seas of despair
but some how
resurecting in each
new morning
the rising sun
hidden behind
tendrils of blue smoke
wasted moments
and missed opportunities
sit wilted
at the last supper
of broken promises
and futile gestures

Johnny Cash - Hurt

queen of light

A bit of truth
mixed with
a world of lies
lightens the
dark sky...
the light
overcomes
the night which can
only hide in the
shadows...
my love seeks
out the darkness
like the inevitable
morning sun that
no cloud
or storm
can hide...
for the darkness,
the battle
is lost...
