The Magic Bottles

In a locker

where I work

are rows of bottles

that will give you back your  looks.

 

They’ll make you look radiant

they’ll improve your skin

each little bottle

will make you live again.

 

So I will choose one with care

and feed it to you with ease

because

each little bottle

will

make you immortal

until

I turn off the lights

and gently

close

your

lid.

Almost There

In fourteen days

It’s Halloween

and all of the Crows will fly

into the night

among the graves

the ruined ones, the tended ones,

the secret ones

unmarked but not forgotten.

 

The Crows

will ferry the dead

with dark care

one by one

silent against the night

until they reach our homes.

 

Will you answer

I wonder

if one tries you locks

and gently knocks

upon your windows ands doors?

Just A Taste

He gave me his heart

and then

 I took his Soul

in one delicious bite.

 

He knew me

he called for me

he dreamed of me

he created me

so

Why would he think

I

only wanted

a taste of the love he offered.

Time Is A Killer

I have

all the time in the world

to peel back the layers

that hide what I want

to get to the bone

 to the core

of the treasures that I seek.
