a journal for damned lovers vol 1-3

Love

  • Bodies And Rain

    Snuffed out by her inner demons. Don’t speak to me about forests and sands, for they interest me very little, except for when they wash upon the shores of her inner thigh that is. It’s a natural thing, some kind of sexual turn on maybe. The way everything glistens beneath the moon. The way thunder rolls over Read more

  • Wish

      So many people. So few lovers. Dying children and black cats that claw at my ankles. Between the bars, you blink with pouting lips expecting a kiss, yet my eyes are drawn to a giraffe pissing blood on a field of dead sunflowers. It’s not gruesome. It’s just a slice of life to keep Read more

  • Cat Woman

      She stripped me naked as night came calling. Shadows everywhere save for between our bodies, the songs of childhood hallucinations could be tasted upon bare lips. Flooded subways as we shifted from one place to the next, she had the golden touch as somewhere nearby a car crashed into a launderette before bursting into Read more

  • Come Undone

    When being in public was too difficult, I’d picture her breasts squeezed together. When anxiety had me on my knees, I’d imagine those nipples of hers poking between painted fingernails. Keeping the sickness at bay, I’d have her nude and breathless beneath me as I did my thing. Getting lost in the possession of her body, Read more

  • Pleasure Machines

      Early morning nausea, and the way her body reached out to be taken. With sounds of the nearby ocean in her ears, she didn’t hear me until it was too late. Revolving doors, and the underwear she picked out especially for all those that would find her. Such lovely eyes. Such a remarkable waist. Read more

  • Blood On Your Fingers

      Drinking beer while reading the Atrocity Exhibition, I remember the taste of their lips and the ageless love they held in their widened eyes. Hushed fears as they sighed beneath a sky of hidden stars. Leaves and death, in every breath that ever left their lungs. Now just an empty bedroom, the evening tastes Read more

  • Noire Girl

      Hands trembling while seated at a splendid table, nausea rises and takes hold. Sweat trickling down your brow, you repeatedly swallow to stop yourself from being sick. There was a time when this kind of thing never happened. There was a time when to exist came naturally. But not anymore. Sat at the stupid Read more

  • Butterfly Kisses

      With your perfect pouting face, do you think you can hold off the hand of time from dispensing you like a fly? With those impressive breasts, do you think you can seduce at will and deny the big nothing that lurks at the foot of your bed? Sex won’t save you from obscurity; it Read more

  • Abstract Daddy

      Perched on the edge of the bed, there’s no line between where I end, and you begin. Only I never end, not really. A dream upon waking that never leaves, there’s no substance to what I am. I’m void of flesh and bone. I’m everything where there should be nothing. A black hole. An Read more

  • Crash

      Cunt cunt. The thrill of fantasy as you straddle me while hissing like a snake. Merging on the freeway, the threat of extinction causes our bodies to swell in neon sunlight. Burning wheels and hostages. Tyres around their necks, and the taste of your mouth as I part the hair that covers your black’d Read more
