Your eyes glaze over, you're barely there,
Anam cara, whose life I share.
Where do you go when the windows shutter?
Soul wanders away from all that mattered.
I see the clouds pass your sunrise eyes,
Yellow in the centre blue outside.
From once where rays of love and light shone,
Weather changing, part of you gone.
Once, I basked in the sun rays of your soul,
Now I cower in uncertainty, reassurance gone.
As the clouds drift past, eclipse your sun,
I wander dirt paths of a twilight zone.
Then once more I glimpse you there,
Beautiful friend, partner of years.
Our souls dance again as our eyes meet and shine,
Then I see your eyes cloud and pain is mine.
Where do you go? What do you see?
Why is it you can't stay and dance with me?
What is it, roaming inside your mind,
That now makes your soul hide away from mine?

Smell the skin riding the breeze
Sticky 100-degree rain
by Cori Anders
You are only hurting yourself.
It was greed - But for what?
For flesh, for comfort, for acknowledgment?
We all fall into those
Insanity, pure and simple.
Boredom, yes.
Did I need so badly to feel loved?
Why did I not just read a book,
or go to sleep
Who do you fool when you cheat
Nobody but yourself
With ruses and tricks to beat
The honest for top shelf
What is the price
