Avidity

My Moonshine-drinker

Levee-dancer

Shotgun-pumper

Shield-bearer

Unbound as gunnr's horse

Hunting killdeer-wing

Fragile as wolf's-joint

With white-flag
On Hamburger Hill

My Moonshine-drinker

Levee-dancer

Lust-fucker

Gēras

(photo cred)

My flesh resembles that of a stone

Hardened by the erosion of reality

I witness like a fly on the wall

Camouflaged in blue smoke quartz.

(Dar)Win

The high after I spent
What felt like 7 days & 6 nights without a fix
When I was alone in wishing I had the power to heal
Kissing my feet won't do you any good

You could call my addiction
Evolution while you wear your
Bible belt upon your sleeve

You let me live
With the fact that I'll never stop
Fighting this battle
Though I won't ever win

You let me rest
Not on your scars
Though they are smooth
Like Egyptian cotton
Or even low thread count sheets
Yet to be used

Your arms are still
My armor
