Faces

Faces

Faces of everyone I’ve ever met

Carved on molecules in my brain

Nodules of images rush more to maintain

Memories of charged particle grain

Near receptors for opiates, such as cocaine

Some laughing, crying in degrees of pain

With mountains of love and depths of disdain

Waxing poetic, some on the wane

Fixing on thoughts again and again

Just as my face goes into their train


I wonder if I will die with them

Ahem

Ahem Mists lay on the flower petal After the cool night Breeze was about to take flight Birds were already singing Songs to mate and relocate To enjoy their first morning bite And the bliss of a kiss The Sun was biding Earth's time Rising only when bidden I just heard the freight train Fully laden Two miles down the street On the line sounding Alarms It must be five-o-clock I hold my balls and stroke my cock Hormones in agreement In a timely fashion Must go to work now Or back to sleep So my day starts Its early creep
