Lyric Poem
These poems are songs without music: intimate, immediate and soul-deep. The lyric form captures a single voice in its most vulnerable state, echoing desire, grief, awe or ache. This is the heartbeat of poetry: personal, pulsing and unafraid.
When emotion becomes melody on the page.
Heterovert
your slur—my ceaseless derogation
Blood Burning
queens snorted and screamed
In His Embrace, I Slowly Died
where your love left me exiled
Murderous Seduction
deep within the haunted wood
Rescued Me
fear of abusive men soon decreased
Twisted Carcass
perverted desires and poisoned words
Conquered by Your Fierce and Tender Love
warm, fragile tears revealed I am loved
