Behind
Eclipse (Nymphomaniac part one by Lars Von Trier) about Joe’s traumatic grief of her dear father’s death
This is a companion piece to my poem Crying.
About a mother and son, death and grief.
This is about a daughter and her deep love for her father.
even if I could hide behind my bloody, self-pleasured painting
covering up the trauma of sexual release, I find that the
indelible, linked to morose passion
petrified, my passion is obscured
silent, like the stars with the painful
eclipse of your sudden death, rising moon-star

Sad & Happy Musings, on one sunny side morning
I would start with a busted, busted egg yolk. Creamy, nutty, smooth, silky. The silence of the blistered yellow on top of the smoky white, would be like the most celestial part of heaven in my mouth. Carmelized pork; such as hot butter with the crisp of Canadian bacon. Toasted English muffin. Hot coffee with half and half. Homemade waffles with blackberry jam& butter.

Omgggg, this was so raw, intense, emotional and deep! You packed a punch here with your Acrostic! I loved it!
Excellent, the love u describes a daughter for her father that's really speechless
Oh man, this was tough to read as a "survivor" and trying to get my own head around why I can still feel so much hurt but still long for love and recognition by the person I idolized. Painful.
