Eraser mind, specific when it strikes
Right in the chest, also right in the heart
Allowing time to disappear like likes
Second-guessing space with a pointed dart.
Erased me, she did, both eyes with blue smiles
Remembering to forget me each day
Mimicking some so-called truth writ on tiles
Inasmuch as it replaced time and play.
Never say never was never truer
Dying slowly surrounded by her words
Forever is no time for a hewer
Of feelings and words delivered as sherds.
Rent me your mind to also forget you
1 of 2 is a lie on your high pew.
-----
Eraser mind, can you erase my mind
Right in the brain, also right in the chest
Allowing me to also become blind
So I could continue my true-love quest?
Every part of me misses your breasts’ smile
Remembering how your nipples endured
Mimicking my erect tongue full of style
Inundated with your I-love-you-lured.
Never have I been so enamoured-ill
Dying to please you between your wet folds
For at least a decade before the chill
Onto the western front of my old colds.
Remind me to really stop loving you
1 of 2 halves of each day is yours too.

It is easy to erase someone from one’s mind. It can take over a month or less than a minute, but it takes a selective mind; bad with both numbers and words, and not in counting or writing them; that’s the easy part. Even a dog can count to three or four and write more than a few barks. These special minds can only count to one, and two, as they count themselves twice. They tend to be preachers of some type, often counting love as one, when it takes two for it to mean anything real, and I am only referring to love that lives with lust, not the obligatory loves we may hold towards family, pets and a god. Love is wet.

Lifting the Curtain to a Successful Month
April has been a fantastic month for me in terms of writing endeavors. I’d like to share what’s been so great about it just as many other writers would do. Share successes. I’ve noticed other writers or artists have shared successes and when you just see the snippet of their success, it appears everything has been going right for them all along. But we haven’t seen behind the curtain, we haven’t seen their hard work and their failures and those months that were fraught with disappointment. In everyone’s case, it’s far from the truth. But for the outside observer it isn’t always apparent.

I love how you used the first letter of each line as the title. Awesome poetry.
