Water by Giuseppe Arcimboldo (1527 - 1593)

Please take the sick and dying photos.

I won't reminisce on the xanthous skin,

The laborous breath or mucus bubbling.

But I never want to forget the tenderness,

The stolen moments of joy,

Or the intimacy of death witnessed.

The river is wild with snowmelt.

Bowed grass like Wind-swept hair

Streaming from her muddy brow, in

Golden braids Wind-woven.

She only laughs at his howling,

Sharp and cold and brittle.

Her veins are flowing icewater,

Whipping will not sting her.

The light snags on her teeth, glistens

On her cheek. Crystal singing.

Lingering snow piles and old cans

Glitter. Trees like thin gray

Fingers comb the sky, and catch it -

A jewel so pure a blue,

It traps the sun inside.

Your soft dark body heaving,

Curled like a heart beating

In the sun. You've slipped from pain

To blissful, sunkist nap. I weep

For your wheezing breath, your hollow sides.

Tears stud your coat like constellations.

You are the entire sky.

i don't pay attention to the world ending. it has ended for me many times and began again in the morning.

I cannot feel and remember at the same time.

As a kid I woke to a wasp sting,

And angry buzzing in my blankets,

Bolted for the door screaming -

My sister cried, "What is it??"

What is it? I just saw!

"I don't know, but I don't like it!"

So my wedding day is a blurry happiness,

My entire childhood a fog.

Please don't take it personally

When the details are lost in the emotional sink

Of my mind. It frustrates me, too.

What happened? I don't know,

I felt it too deeply.

My memories fade

But the way you made me feel

Will last forever.

[t-h-e-lizardking]

You whispered in my ear

The rope unwound itself from my waist

The stone sank away.

It doesn't even matter that I

So badly want to die

You touch my heart and it stumbles onward.
