Reaching for the Cleaver


Banana cream maybe?

Apple a la mode, obviously 

Mango and Rumberries, to me

But always a browned-butter crust.

The purpose of the American Pie is just that:
First, it’s going to taste the way 
temptation teased it would

And then?
It’s going to kill you.

The poison isn’t the pie, per se
But the going back for more

3 Haiku on Belonging


I
Hood in the heavens 
Pack among the prophets, a
Lone wolf would have died

II
We want to go home
Said: take us to your leader.
Alien be(longing)

III
Although, look at God!
Sisterhood a mended heart
Every brother a blessing

2 Thessalonians 2:13- we are obligated always to thank God for you, brothers loved by Jehovah

post script// what if the science fiction genre needed to create the concept of  "aliens” to make sense of the heavenly spirit realm?

post2// I'm thoroughly and utterly in love

Siren of Pavlov

**

Mother’s voice
G-flat in the key of fear major hums:
“They are incapable of a love this deep”
can you hear it ring truth?

**

P o p
idolized and fiendin’
for her next big hit 
the bell a vivid reminder of what happens 
when the hit hit back

**

Who a vivid reminder of
When what happened where
and 
With whom

**

Bell disobedient to the body’s language!
Does not recognize a crooked smirk from 
a clenched fist 

**

A hand grazing my butt
**
Or predator crouched in the underbrush
**
A paycheck that will not cum
**
Upon waking from someone else’s dream

**
Relieved
Another woman’s husband sighs
with her heart in his hands and his
Boot on my neck

**
And squeeze

**
The bell teaches the guillotine 
when to swing

But Who should we hold responsible 
for the song the sirens sing?
