a certain kind of love
is a blanket or other comfort
the warmth of your skin, the sweetness of your caress
the right words to turn
a rhythm in sync, resonant soul-moment
endless moments of seek, these restless streets
cares and glares a chamber gives
the next relentlessly and without effort unleash.
a hurricane tore the guards of the walls of heart
a house sex built to withstand
all manner of human fault- forgive
and shelter
a certain kind of love
beautiful face to soothe
lovers past forget
and dreams
to behold
a pause in the flux of life / this song
accompany me
curves parallel the longer perspective
and wounds of heart that are healed
I grasp your core artfully and not with little
desire I bite
an other memory of my heart
turns to dust ash

fill with pages / words divine / the meekest flower of my heart / a niche, a shelter / from thunder falls / and whispers softly how it loved / in darkness flooded / angels float / and oceans fill and spill, no end / to the infinite ends of the universe trek / follow in my humble path, I’m torn / I’ve left a trail of leaves or words / and birds that follow me no more / a landscape / a wicked verse / an empty bed / a heart / a whore. - © 2003 Eduardo De León

objects to which we owe allegiance
objects to which we owe allegiance
things/people which we retain
times when we are beholden
this time when we behold
thinks to forget/ begs be forlorn
Remembers and longs for remembrance
I find and lose your memory daily
a photograph I can’t escape
and can’t help belonging my image to
creativity as therapy/ i hate you never
was so appealing / good-bye never so close
and hurt never so immediate
tengo una herida llamada ________
y una cura llena de ti.

anoche soñé con ella. por primera vez en mucho tiempo. estaba saliendo de un apartamento en el cual un hombre se encontraba con una prostituta, cuando escuché un teléfono sonar y fui a verlo, dejó de sonar y una voz familiar lo respondió con "Aló?" y después colgó. le pregunté porqué había respondido al teléfono, y estuvo avergonzada, salimos al ascensor y cuando salíamos del edificio entraba la esposa de aquél hombre. era un edificio de Parkchester.

two weeks to go - the longer the present to be
a desktop picture/window, weather forecast
a cemetery, autumn begins
overcast sky, overcast mind
a new operating reality, i might become accustomed
slow piano strokes, thunder, a dark corner
a cold embrace, sweetly whispers
two more weeks - the freedom to endure
the binding ties that chafe these wrists;
the rage and anger, the tears, the fists-
neverending hurt becomes
my truest companion, promised bride
i choke on a bite of its frosted heart
and silently slip into a nightscape [mind/reality]
of a dream
