    Where Love Runs Red

    Blood and bad breath The taste of morning Blood and coffeeAnemic breakfast Blood and kissesDrowning in dreams Blood and bladesSink deep in flows Blood and loveA prisoner inside myself Blood and beerDespair to be savored Blood and silenceEmptiness thinks Blood and snowI...

    • This drips with grit and shadow—each line a pulse of pain and dark devotion.
      You’ve poured the body’s ache and the soul’s rust into a river of red, unafraid to bleed.

  • Huge Motörhead fan here..

    “You know I’m born to lose, and gambling’s for fools,
    But that’s the way I like it baby,
    I don’t wanna live forever,
    And don’t forget the joker!”

    • I have “born to lose” tattooed to my right arm. Branded by a real Missouri gangster, never to be altered on the promise of payment at a later date, all becuz of Super Bowl XXXIII. I never needed or wanted another.

      • Damn, Benjamin. That would be traumatizing my friend, sorry you went through that, sounds like a lesson learned the hard way. Thank you for sharing your story. Appreciate you.

        • Every self-made predicament was a necessary lesson, and the losses were net positives long-term. It just took about two decades to get there. I’m a slow learner. Thank you!

    • Chère C.,
      Hope you survived the Valentine thing.
      To me, it’s like refined food, it looks like the real thing, but when you bite……

      I love your poem a lot.
      And (like more often than not) I love the artwork as well. And it makes me wonder from what place on earth it is pictured.
      As I’ve never seen the moon in this position.

      Any way, you keep surprising me with your work. And I am grateful that you share it.
      Warm regards, Gus

    • “decorating my inner landscapes with hope” my favorite along with that entire stanza.
      Wonderful work crim.
