fishing for the right words

sift tiny shiny dreams

    from

              black water sleep

sweeter honey never flowed through Heaven

 

that rabid river

                   moves

                         like lubed electricity

                                           through smooth red wormholes

                          of my space garden

                          mind

 

live thoughts squirm like time

                                 out of my hands

     as I try to hold

                     them close enough

                       to kiss

 

never

          tasted

                     a single one

        

I think that’s why I’ll always love them

Your words is like lighting on the screen flashing read me! I enjoy reading your writing. The words are always like fire crackers waiting to explode into my mind. Love this poem!!!

I'll always love your words too... they taste like lightning, they taste like muddy worms and sometimes like sweetest honey.
