Wipe the blush off your cheeks

  Your lips, a porcelain grey

   Hiding your tongue behind

Dancing teeth will only get you

Numb man

Her coral colored eyes

  Speaking the truth

Which makes January cold

   The color of snow,

Obsolete roads leading

The endless

         Scarlet heat

pain relief

I can’t help

But shake when I hear

His voice

     Something holding me

High, like hooks in my back

A shelf for all the books

When he breathes my

          Heart stops

And the blood rushes out

          My teeth

warm water 

Silence kills the ones

                 Who think

Deep - 

     D e e p e r        than

A hole in the cemetery

     Floor

     She takes her

        Secrets and 

buries them 

before the show every

poem

The way she moves

   Like a sea with no salt

A flower with no petals

sharp knives

Running off a mountain

     Just to feel the wind

          In between these

                 Arms

A place where you

Used to hide

Now an empty ocean

No one knows where to

Lie anymore

       I used to take the words

       I used to take the pain

But finally my eyes

Shattered

And I couldn’t find

              My breath

With a needle to my

              Head

A gun to the ground

    Hold my heart up

             And set fire

        To the holes in

My head

SaberTooth 

All my teeth

    Are falling out my head

    Words don’t mean a thing

When the lights can’t dance

Or the music doesn’t play

It’s not polite you make my

Teeth itch after midnight 

When the moon reflects the 

future and the sky eats 

    my eyes.
