Resurgence
You told me I was
always at my
best in the
dead of
night.
Words
that were
profound
with musical
accompaniment
made us weep.
Oh how you tested me
with questions on
sincerity, until
with relief,
dawn broke,
and we slept off
the intensity of our
sexual reassurance.

Thoughts On Love, And Other Things
So he picks up his marker
To highlight the line
That all men are holy
All women divine
But the thoughts that he'd written
Where tainted with pain
He tried to ignore them
They followed again
So he chained up his longings
And no one could find
The power to read them
From deep in his mind
Now he's watched from the window
As birds disappear
Another wrong season
Another bad year
But through every long winter
He fashions his tools
To paint out of darkness
And write about fools
So he picks up his marker
To highlight the line

We All Should Be So Cursed
As weak as any man I call
to you night demon,
and beg for torment
that must only last forever.
But I have seen you with Samael,
and know you will never be faithful
to only one ideal.
You who carry no original sin
will eat out the sinner,
like a vampire,
lusting for the sons of light
from Babylon to Israel
and beyond.
Ah, but I have heard
you know his name,
and are forever cursed
to lay down you children
for your pride.
No wonder you rage
daughter of Hecate,
creation of Hera,
lover from Adam to Gilgamesh.
But I know you only as
lovely Lilith,
looking for a place to rest.
