Tear-tinted eyes
Prayer-primed mouths
Burden-burnished shoulders
Ache-accessorised hearts
Puzzle-puddled heads
Torture-tutored lives
For absent lovers
These burdens,
Their bond
Widows!
Tactile
pleasures
Booting
machines
He logs in
He surfs on
Unconstrained borders
Labyrinthine
monsters
Rhizomatic
pathways
In, on, up,
down
Backspace,
return key
And she:
Simulation
Superimposition
Vacuous
virtuality
Deleted data
In his
shutdown heart
The cyber
freak
Digital
widow!
Absent lover
–
Her burdens,
Their bond.
Tactile
pleasures
Booting sensuousness
He logs in
He surfs
deep
Uncontrolled
emotions
Luscious laps
Resonant
passions
In, on, up,
down
Breaststroke,
rear-strokes
And she:
Side-lined
Super-non-important
Valid
vagrant
Detested
dote
In his shutdown
heart
The hole
freak
Passion
widow!
Absent lover
–
Her burdens,
Their bond.

pleasures

doormat
He logs in
He surfs on
Unutterable
batters
Lugubrious
slaps
Retraceable
punches
In, on, up,
down
Backslaps,
rearslaps
And she:
Self-sterile
Super-non-thing
Valueless
veg
Doleful
domino
In his
shutdown heart
The combat
freak
Punch widow!
Absent lover
–
Her burdens,
Their bond.
Retracted pleasures
Breath-less
body
He logs out
He surfs out
Unimaginable
passing-out
Lamentable
fade-out
Receded play
stage
In, on, up,
down
Burn-out,
celestial roll-call
And she:
Soul partner
Super-terrestrial
Varnishing vanity
Definite dust
In his
shutdown heart
The frozen life
Death-made
widow!
Absent lover
–
Her burdens,
Their bond (2012)
