Captivity
A captivating poem through alliteration.
Casually compromised by casualties.
Condescending carefully while caressing her compassionately. Captured and cornered, radiance adorns her and I have sworn to her. I have sworn at her. Oh to be a protector, to love and protect her.
Casually compromised by casualties.
Rings of condensation created from carefully crafted coffee drinks. Caressing her lips, pleasurably counting to six - cornered and tricked, burdened by words of a kiss. Casually triumphant, I wish for a kiss.
Candles lit the candid cursed, motionless earth.
My thoughts are pure, my lips pursed with anger.
“Lord, forbid me to curse or put her in danger; forsake me if I endanger her.” These bottomless emotions bind me to earth. My spirit clings to the image of her caramel complexion, completed perfection.
Contemplating captivation, casually I compromised her. Carefully capturing her every word. A candid photo created a curse. Our compatibility, a casualty or worse.
Finally, I’ve been captivated by her.

First Starlight of Summer
Your whole being is constituted by yearning. You miss the stars but have never seen a fully-realized night sky sparkle to life before your eyes. You write things, funny but short but profound, emulating the archaic cosmos that turns by its own unknowable calculus emulating love in all its celestial glory turning in that same cryptic way, but fully know neither and hardly know both, and it feels disingenuous, so you write about writers. It feels vaguely masturbatory, but it’s funny but short but profound and it impresses the people around you enough, so you run with it forever until you can’t anymore.
