pixel or pixie

wrote this in a coffee shop where there was so much space on the other side of my table

let's f**k each other metaphysically

because somewhere between us is the answer to why

my life is like a crystal ball or a slow pendulum or a carousel

just repeating the future which is also really the past

depending on how full the holy grail is on any given day 

because somewhere between us is a handful of dying stars

which are actually the reason why i think that i have to 

protect myself a lil from yr ultra-violet smirk in the daylight 

and now it's a question of: are u just a pixel or am i just a pixie or both

because somewhere between us is a lucid description

of sugar dissolving very slowly in a handful of yr spit + poison

or of ice gaining enough energy to melt or of blood itself

and i want to know it and understand it thru learned intuition

don't u want to peel me apart and seductively lick my Soul

don't u want to pull open my sternum and play w my lungs

don't u want to raise my eyebrows w just a wink or a whimper

don't u want to feel me and/or know me in every sense of the word

tbh i'm just waiting for u to take me hard on a bed of flowers

[JBoone]

WOW!!!! This is really good. Very passionate but also very artistic. Real and raw, but also well refined. Well done and very beautiful.

[The Nude Writer]

This is so cool. I love your use of metaphor. Great imagery as well. You're such an expressive writer.

[I Am Svetlana]

A perfectly honest write about passion, praise the Heavens! I haven't been on to review much poetry lately, but now that I've stumbled upon your work, I have that much more motivation & curiosity. I should really review every piece you write, I say that only due to the pure talent and power of honesty that you let bleed out through your fingertips. Passion between two is such a beautiful, but delicate thing nowadays, but it's worth it with the right person. I also enjoy some of the dark stuff you write!

[Papaya]

Love it!
Yeah, not much more to say.
Love it!
Great poem, you should have WAY more reviews than you do.

I like this poem. I felt it more than I actually understood it. I loved your vocabulary, and I enjoyed the conversational yet poetic tone you used; it really added a sense of freedom and expression to the somewhat romantic, sexy vibe. The first line, for example, was special in a way that I can't explain, and it really set the mood for the rest of the poem. It's like you're drunk and rambling every romantic pick-up line you can think of while trying to maintain a hint of sophistication, and the fact that you wrote this at a "coffee shop when there was so much space on the other side of the table" kinda adds some craziness to it. I liked it. This poem gave me a weird feeling, but I enjoyed it. Very interesting, unique read.

Haha, I totally see what you mean about the being drunk and spilling out pick-up lines that I'm trying to mask as "sophisticated" conversation. Such a nice image, oh my god. I'm happy that you felt it more than understood it - that's the most important thing to me. And as far as the first line goes, it's probably my favorite because it hardly makes sense. I thought about just making that sentence its own poem, actually, but then a bunch of other words typed themselves out and I liked how that turned out, too.

Thanks for your review, really. :)

[William Liston]

You're welcome.

What can be said that so many have already said. Made me laugh, think and appreciate another artist with a pen. Thanks.
