LP No. 06_2024_Palette

a shadow
of beauty
crawls gently
across everything,
as
varying shades
of
wonder welcome me back
into the nether:

twixt
the splendor of day
&
night's tranquil call,
enters a time
of magic...
when rocks sing to the shadows,
and the air dances
in
anticipation of moments passed.

this fading,
love wrought light
has me yearning yet again for
Her
sweet kiss
bathed in moonlight,
leaving me
reborn, once more.

dreamless chameleon: baron unleashed…Samedi

some yearn to drown
in a world full of dreams.

my dreams long
to manifest
within me.

eyes open and soul afire,
I breathe
mundane wonder
twixt that moment
and this, and

sit here,
in calm excitation,
spellbound
by the beauty
of you.

delusion

so many secrets stalled
behind serene colored eyes.




courting the unexpected
erupting from within.




a swirling effervescence
veils mystery and intrigue.




mounting fascination,
tempered by increased anticipation,
crushed so quickly,
by some basic ass shit.



and so I move on,
again.



yet,
hope builds once more


Where Brooklyn at?

so many faces but,
none
of them mine.


so many beats,
yet none break
my spine



where is BK at?



where is the love?

where is me?

and you, who I love?


it’s a Weeknd brunch,
without the waffles
or chicken either.


it’s a deluge
of sorrow
and guilt,

that just


ain’t



mine.



so tell me…


where
is
the love?


I said clap yo hands everybody
Clap yo hands,
and say naw.

thaw

somewhere
between the wind
and
shadow,
and
echoing triumphant
against the distance to my heart,
my name rings out,
in a voice that was once my own.


i
close
my
eyes to drift
closer,
and
sink further
into
the shadow of my song.



a soft smile slips:
scorched pleasure,
kindled in fear.


and I whisper back,
hello.
