The Clown

Sprayed all over walls
Scribbled, like rich and creamy
Whips of salad dressing

His looks empty, but his smile wide
With obnoxious intent
A kid on a sunday outfit

Sat erect, dormant like black coffee
His sister with eyes fixated  to oblivion
And counting vultures along the way

The rest became splattered raggedy  dolls
More empty faces, and sunday outfits
Thus the joke started

With each line, a laceration
Each hum, a slash
There's no rhyme in his desecration

As he continued  painting like Picasso
On steroids, costumed colorfully 
His canvass, everywhere

His paintbrush, a kitchen knife
With Mozart playing rigid and funny
But nobody's laughing anymore

Knee Bone Love

I am cold
Like dying mist
At the tail end
Of a stale rainbow

With trembling hands
I reach for something
Real in the depth
Of your pristine limbo

I found one
With truth
As crooked as
My laughing sorrow

So sweet between
Fatigued hope
And a broken
Halo

With dust gathering
Swirling, dancing
In those
Grieving eyes

The hushed
Promises now
Looking more sinful
Than a fatal vice

These midnight
Dreams, under
Covers of flames
From inferno

Are as cold
As the dying mist
At the tail end
Of a stale rainbow

Clueless lagoon

There are landscapes
Then, they were gone
Only timid moons and
A midnight sun

Between lucid goodbyes
Sad laughters
There maybe hope
Or maybe, none

Up there, clouds
Of bluest skies
Deep, longing like
vague smiles

On hills tepid with
Abandonement
Lullabies echo,
Swayed, bent

Between sparkles 
Of stolen whispers
Promises broken
Shattered hearts

Your sad kiss
Rushed, empty
My dying love 
In a death valley
