Opel Corsa Sail

Three drunken nights
in a row,
frozen, seized muscles
and the smell
of toothpaste
of deodorant.

Smoking worth
three bucks.
Welcome,
you're there.

Closed eyes
against the afternoon sun.
Again -
Who the fuck IS Alice?
The evening is a story
on its own
with falling into ponds
and harem pants
and hours that
you don't remember.

But then
the stars come out
and you can't stop
gazing, wondering.
You haven't seen
so many
at once.
The moon's fucking beautiful
and when he looks at you
so are you.

But there is
just something
which stops you
over and over again.
Unresponsive
and nonreciprocal.

Separation.

Ten minutes
and one call later
he's back
and so are you.
His eyes
never move away
neither do his
fingers.
Your skin smells
of him.

You have half
a corsa sail
for him to
pin your hair
behind your ear
and ask you
very softly.
You have half
a corsa sail
to know
that you would give up
almost anything
for that moment
to last into eternity.
Right then in
his arms.

You have half
a corsa sail.

Paimona

"Paimona bideh ki khumoor astam
Paimona bideh ki khumoor astam
Mann aashiq-e chashm-e mast-e-yarastam
Mann aashiq-e chashm-e mast-e-yarastam
Bidee bidee ki khumoor astam
Paimona bideh ki khumoor astam."


It is near dawn, when he complains I have beautiful eyes. And then the smells of sleep and love leave him bare.

It's in his hands that he holds me, my memory.

Fairy lights illuminate this little space. Half in shadows, my body celebrates. As if each and every bit calls out to him. Recalling his fingers entwined with mine. His first touch. Or when just his sight was my own memory.

A smile. And various dreams behind those shut, moist eyes.

Six down

Not a week since.
And so many things already.

He wasn't happy within. There was no arrogance - to be happy, or even the zeal to live.
Like big blue drops all over me. And then suddenly, I had a foot in my mouth. Not unusual for me, but very unusual repercussions.

:D

Ha.

I can only wave my hands all around, and dance. And wave my heart at him.
