M37

Suffocation precedes screams

she seemed determined to translate as

“succumb

to that which heaven

hesitates to designate

as the efforts of a man

believing it appropriate to …

… “BURN! BURN! BURN!”"

The Presence Of Sarah (2010-02-13)

“I’ve a reluctance to extend this preference of men”

deterred kisses

blown (as if in appreciation of

her implicit fear of

bruised and lacerated skin)

from the edge of the pool …

… blown to commemorate another late night

surrendered to justify the presence of Sarah

smiling in spite of her sudden interest in

redemption under the moonlight

The Massacre III of III

Having emerged

dependent on the scent of her panties

preserved to appease disciples defined as

“too anxious to tease”,

her agent descends

content with the selection of women rescued from the bar

to contend with her silence by kneeling …

… revealing an aversion to feeling repulsed

by that which is referenced

in deference to the memory of Sarah

At SkyBar (with Lauren & Evan)

Whether willing to identify

the ghost of Ramona as the reason to reveal

“It’s finally an appropriate evening to stray”

or pray for endurance,

she’ll stay

to (discretely) address the presence of blood

ivy failed to completely conceal,

by appealing to Evan

“PLEASE, may I assume you’ll confess?”

while kneeling beneath an impressive array of stars …

… an accessible (and relieving) substitute for heaven

San Fernando (coda)

The sun appears

to have resolved her resentment of

that which appears to resemble success …

… the pool’s reflection of skin

addressed despite the presence of men

impressed by the absence of leather

in her

inappropriate interpretation of heaven

Empire (HAIL! HAIL!)

Prone to appease by appearing desperate …

… breathing

“They’ll profit

while I’ll conceal my veneer and assume

(as a much prettier prophet)

I too shall walk on water”,

Simon continues to conspire against

the few he’d prefer to inspire

That he exists

to represent the boldest of whispers

presented to commemorate the existence of

an appreciation of discretion

suggests

an indefensible declaration of love

or a commendable perception of poor taste

is preferable to the sound of

“HAIL! HAIL!”

from the last of the replaced radios

Meghan’s Party (12:26 AM)

He appears

impressed to have witnessed

a resilient assemblage of friends

pretending to reluctantly anoint one another as …

… relevant,

disappointed by sentiment

expressed prior to regarding the guardrails

(behind Meghan)

as obscene,

screaming “We’re convinced!

We really do bleed!”

Grace (A Silhouette … A Distinct Witness To Fame)

Given to reconcile poverty with tension

redesigned to attract a new definition of defeat,

the response “…I followed to recover”

proved sweeter to his guests than the emergence of Grace

“a silhouette … a distinct witness to fame”

taken to light,

presenting withdrawal as beauty

retained by the loss of blood and the failure of satin

to alleviate pain usually sought for attention.

“SHAME” (he repeats),

to dispute tonight’s tears -

tonight’s likely opponents

to tonight’s prevailing veneer,

employs the crowd as the ploy to destroy her will to retreat …

… to survive as his starlet.

Seventeen Thirty-Five (feat. Anessa)

Inquiring (from the floor)

“Might I inspire the DJ to illuminate

a presence hesitatant to still define me

as a ‘beautiful whore’?”

to demonstrate

she’s a reason to reveal new blisters

and assimilate tonight

despite the desire to stand

before the hands of another handsome man …

… a discerning acquaintance of waves

crashing miles and miles away,

she finally resembles a woman ready to say

“don’t hurt me”
