Doug : Back Yard Artist It's dark tonight hold me

It's dark tonight hold me

Posted on Sep 27th, 2007 by Doug : Back Yard Artist Doug

Oh what am I thinking love

What unimaginable lightness of being overcomes me

Still I fall into darkness,

Still, without stillness


Where are the arms and legs of flesh

the true fingers cooling this fiery flight

the curve of hip

the scent of musky roses

to lay beside me

drink me into the moist warmth

of a darkness shared

until the morning is in the room once more


I need the weight of flesh when I feel this weight

Of my own fallible, fallen

Blood and bones

Sinking through the dry earth

Of rain

Of dry gray, common rocks

On a beach

Devastated by a waning tide
