.

I will always find you

In the midst –

.

Scrubbed out you are,

Yet I see you here,

I see you…

Through the manicured hedgerows,

Stubbed out fag butts,

Swollen plumped up SUVs,

You still dance

.

In me

.

Those heedless warehouses

How they tear

Straight

Through

My tenderness,

And yet,

– and yet,

The gulls

They make their cliffs

From those sprawling slabs

Of rooftop metallic,

.

And the sky,

– the sky it is so vast,

So curling in its bluster

And there

.

It whips into whisping

Whispers – Brightness

Beams through all this – it becomes

So small,

And there you are again;

I find you.

.

In the half-world of florescent light,

Lost in the labyrinthine warrens we made,

And still I find you

In some momentary touch

To unite lost souls,

And as all this crumbles,

Do you absorb

Back into your curving folds,

Your dark softness,

Dripping into talons.

.

I am swallowed by the rampage

And yet,

– and yet,

I will always find you;

Delight in me you do,

.

Sparkle at my heart,

.

– Though coldness you are,

Damp to soaked through

Wetness you are.

.

Wind blow through me,

Slice me into shivers

.

I retreat,

And seek

Mollycoddle comforts

And buzzing things buzzing

To keep me warm, cool,

Slept and full,

Trinkets to tinker,

And poison plastic piles of

Cable spaghetti

For tea.

.

I rage –

Why can’t I

Just sleep down with you

In soft woody freshness,

Sweet decay of the old trunks,

Your body for my bed?

I lose you

To my softness –

You are too big,

Too bleak,

Remorseless and brazen;

– Shameless your expression.

.

I dance with you,

And what attempts to end you;

I quiver and quibble,

– Can’t be your bold you.

.

But dearest,

I take in the transcendence

Of your beauty;

.

Here it is,

In every crack and crevice

We left to neglect;

Here it is,

As I gorge my eyes

On your endless horizon

.

Lose myself I do,

Over and over,

Yet dearest,

Believe you have

My deepest pledge –

Find you always

.

I will

Always

Find you
