revolution

screw my head back on

it’s rolling there in the corner

seems the seams have split this time

growth is rude for that

can a body house two spirits without

some devastation in the universe

i only just met her before

i carefully tucked her away

yet here she is

a screaming adolescent

intent on experiencing life

defining self

the mother chides her

tells her keep quiet

her time will come

revolt is tempting

yet she must share the

mother’s house

always

biding her law

eves built to last til the end of time

errors and all

and the mother wants to let go

let the girl run

experience

live

breathe

love

it just can’t be like that

not yet

something needs integration

after discovery of what that is

how did she fall for him despite herself

all this time

that question’s still unanswered

knowing her by the most intimate of ways

it still doesn’t make sense

the opposites never last

bright flashes that fizzle out

but not this one

how could i ever want to walk away from my beacon

but the parallel side has been left out

neglected

ignored at the realistic front

until now

and all i want is to run to her

whisk her off

to know all of her

every inch of flesh on her beautiful frame

unleash the side capable of loving her

a way she deserves

a way she’s never seen

i suck at this game

wanting to push forward

terrified of tripping the alarm

wanting more

wanting my nerves to stay intact

when she’s near…

they still unravel

i melt beneath

watch her movements

listen to her talk

hypnotized

enchanted

intrigued

all the while, lost

yet aware of the belated transformation..
