[Poem] The Night Comes

[cyrelia_j]

 Since I'm trying to write more poetry and get back to it (because I fucking love it) I'm working on filling the Wednesday poetry prompts they throw on Writer's Digest. This week was "Exploration" and like most of my shit got weird.

WARNINGS for: sexual imagery, death, and religious shit which is most of what I do poetry wise

In seven days

Genesis unmade-

drifting falling

no Earth calling...

Eyes Wide Shut

my mouth maps your skin

‘til your thighs let me in.

South by Southwest

deep breath deep breath

my hand your chest

my lips your tip

Blue Lips teasing tripped

sideways slithered

your keened cries zithered

Every pixelated pore passing

Through a Scanner Darkly

Marooned 5 million light years away

240p rendered stardust fingers

sinking to my head

on our busted cryo bed

in this land of the dead

no air no care

nowhere but your galvanized stare

and your fists in my hair

This is the way the world ends

Time bends skin rends

While the blink red lens

Beams and streams

these broken ship’s dreams

Skittle diddle gravity drop

Roll drop stop

With a cherry berry pop

of the final bough breaking

and you and I forsaking

the last Tears for Fears

of our stolen years.

For what I want most

of that final gasping ghost

is the sweet seminal host

-a toast-

with my last breath held

the hollowed hull felled

As the World Falls Down-

As I drown

swapping Cinnamon snow

to your mouth as I go.

In seven nights

Paradise blights

Like the land of Nod

Where there is no god

And with one kiss

For a moment

I exist
