Secret Thots for a Very Private Gentleman
tales, temptation, and titillation…
Inside this new love, die.
Your way begins on the other side.
Become the sky.
Take an axe to the prison wall.
Escape.
Walk out like someone suddenly born into color.
Do it now.
You’re covered with thick clouds.
Slide out the side. Die,
and be quiet. Quietness is the surest sign
that you’ve died.
Your old life was a frantic running
from silence.
The speechless full moon
comes out now.
— Rumi —
Sometimes you can’t explain what you see in a person.
It’s just the way they take you to a place no one else can.
— Unknown —
She has always surprised you
into surprising yourself.
— starving4rtist —
She always had that about her, that look of otherness,
of eyes that see things much too far,
and of thoughts that wander off the edge of the world.
— Joanne Harris —
She was a curious girl,
Who loved the smell
of old books,
chasing butterflies
and touching herself
under the covers.
— Michael Faudet —
When I ask, “what are you thinking?”
I am asking for words – the words I need
to describe what happens to my body when you are with me.
I could watch her the rest of my life.
— Philip K. Dick —
… there you are,
I’ve been looking for you.
— pleasefindthis —
you became a ghost.
