dressed in the nine light ... #NaPoWriMo2018 Day 9

when off to nightly cabaret
required identification processes 
spray the gleam 
and glam glands  
an ironing out 
of manic detail-a-rama 
cleansing by rough to smooth 
volcanic ash brought bought in twos 
coffee bean sacks burlap wood crate stacks 
of newspapers, tack board and these adverts 
painted metal overs
 bright charming colors 
what hides the knives 
in America 
I thought ... 

the old grist mills 
were tongue savvy occupy-ers, 
chances taken and 
gathered when(s) 
happened upon(s) 
long for(s) 
and the ocean 
all carrying 
the glow  
the waiting death 
after gestation, gold, life, 
warm mud, silt and time ...

Ican icon i see on no ees i noci 
naci nuci lucky few
fingers bent lent crooked 
"to the sound of my soul" 
saying telomere breakdown 
somatic senescence
protein malaise mayonnaise 
all in planed sight 
entangle tango for everyone ...

salt and arch sugar magic 
we garden thoughts 
on being, bringing 
you love a your love 
an ore love or more love 
for each other 
hand warm
     and dirty 
    flirty a bit 
   after forty 
 and bitten 
no picture needed 
scent bleeds through 
vignette-ifyingly 
nostalgic zoetropic 
a mind frenzies 
ten pennies 
dark cobblestone-d alleys 
what can be macabre fancy 
in gas lamps flicker 
a sweet allure 
sirens 
in the unseen 
scented angels 
devils leaned 
living slivered 
between 
where 
wearing bones 
bathes 
the soul in 

                       r
                         o
                           a
                            n 

         light 

                                                     a calendar    approach 

      our pantry fed scents  

   how we linger 
hope inside poem 
inside hope 
hands tucked  
inside our pockets 
walking home 

 in 
                   a cold rain  
on towards 
where 
the Sun goes ...
