Two Poems - Dona Ana The Artist





Apple Cider


His drunk fucking breath poured ove' my mouth.

I wished he would pour some whiskey in it.

It was like romance could play every tune on my body.

All the importance and his love had run into the darkest corner of my heart


It was a matter of time that the smell of my cunt would overpower his whiskey.

It did

Only this time it smelt like Apple Cider.

He slept off between my boobs.

Only this time I couldn't push him away.




My Silver Heart

Baleful, Quarrelsome, Strong

Her travel spares to transmogrify

Winners Transom in foresight

Her dreams darned falsetto, succeeded to terrify

Stroppy, Obdurate, Independent

A veil through which she could see

Despair impounded her black

Young, Agile, Fuzzy

Her soul bounteous of rhapsody

For her allegiance with the coltsfoot

She’d spruce up, but not flee

Her lovers demotic and deviant

Deluded her demure soul

O’ What Now? Speak to me

Tender, Confused, Dazzled

He tarnished her with his improbity

Her struggle doles out of breath

What may the sea be today?

With her hearts crude songs temperament

Her tongue frayed and worn out.

Oh! Her struggle doles out of breath.

Eating From an Imaginary Spoon: Poems - Allison Grayhurst

Alive on your wave of wet torment, licking the moon of your lips, cradling your breath in my mouth as I held you submerged in my contracting core, held you within as you were within saturated with my pulse and flow. I went under, planted in the memories of your soul. You swallowed our merging with rapid speed. We evolved, stripped of every season, you and I with our initials carved on each other’s skin, undulating in our sensual, blessed commune. Eating from an imaginary spoon Sensual as clay laced with warm water, hard as a window barred - and still the seeds are thrown though I don’t know why - there is too much earth and almost no sun, there are slimy ponds that beasts and fowls eliminate in - spotted with dead-fish-eyes and not at all like heaven is suppose to be. There is a funeral in the fireplace but no one connected enough to mourn the dead thing burning. There are seven steps up and nine down, and indifferent cruelty has murdered every other form of synchronicity - I ...
