#vss365 #emoetry
for #warmth & stimuli
the darktopus fiddles
with it's digits
it #patronizes the same porn store as I
eatin' skittles
while it fidgets
I asked if simultaneously being the 8th wonder of the world & the 8th deadly sin
did #lasciviousness ever fit in
it just grinned

my #lasciviousness
ain't usually rude
unless it's #overworked
I often speak belligerently
& lewd
but if the steaks are dry
they shoulda been jerked
& not called fine food
I don't underestimate
people or love
cuz they've turned #corners
I've never heard of
My heart is locked in the dark trapped in the tangled vines of sin lost rhapsodies lingering in my soul memories and wild lascivious longings for the paths I wish I had never taken I endlessly ache to break free from these dark ties, that bind me to you to leave it all behind but as always winter is falling on me and sorrow blossoms like pain I cannot escape your echoes that over and over, keep returning to me © Ann Bagnall
I have turned away from your lascivious hunger seeking the light, never to return to the night your hands full of hubris, your heart black as ink you carved my name upon the dark pages of your empty soul your quill marked my skin as barren branches mark the sky untruths unveiled, I have seen your sins forever sealing my fate my scars now bleeding , never healing and regret calls hollow from the shadows © Ann Bagnall

My intention from the #corner of the room.”

Lascivious
(as doors shut on The Holy Sepulchre)
we make words
to weaponize
our fear of desire
yet sit silent
as missiles flatten schools
and holy sites
are closed
#bornbattleready
Feeling the heat
Less than discreet
That lascivious stare
Asking me to take the dare
Hungrier than the proverbial wolf
As lust engulfs
What's left of your mortal soul

To Melt, Like Gold
Lost in the lascivious nature
Of a coy, careless caress
So boldly does lust demand favor
So fervently we acquiesce

a circular perpetual bloom
of innocence
of potential barely realized
when lost
in life’s exacting process
of diminishment
confounds us
this perfect infinity
the human condition
limited captivity
elusive metrics
time, a grand #dimension
adds
subtracts
blends
bears
a grand illusion

Take me to another dimension
Skies a hopeful blue
Where pain is not mentioned
Love is what the world moves
Where alibis aren't needed
Truth is a commodity
Time for closeness heeded
And lies are never told to me
Yes, another dimension please
Where hope and truth doesn't tease

if we're on the same level, us
that's cool
I went to school
on a bus
but if mayhaps
you arrived via foot parent or bike
I'd still give ye a like
unless we're shootin' craps
or ye tell me to take a hike
then
I'm on another dimension
runnin' laps

The abyss is patient it quietly whispers to humanity in moments of exhaustion when hope feels hopeless and the future feels too far away but light is stubborn and it persists in places where logic says it should fail in the resilience of forests after fire in the return of birds after winter so when the abyss calls to me I answer with silence turning instead towards the dimension where dawn continues its ancient ritual and where the human spirit still carries the fragile courage to believe that tomorrow might be kinder perhaps one day the darkness will claim everything but now I remain in the dimension of light ©Ann Bagnall
There are nights when the world feels too heavy for me to bear and I withdraw into my other dimension not a place of fantasy, nor a fragile illusion but my hidden interior wilderness where my body can finally breathe this is the dimension that saves me that gathers the scattered pieces of my soul here I am reminded that the world is larger than the chaos of human voices that somewhere beyond the shouting a better place survives, its’ beauty woven into forests and oceans and galaxies that the world can still be beautiful and though outside, the world continues its restless descent towards darkness here, inside my quiet dimension my light refuses to go out ©Ann Bagnall

DONNY OCTOPUS/LOVE ME 4 ANOTHER REASON
Every now and again
We hitch a ride 2 a very special place,
Revealing things we cannot usually see
(But surround us anyway).
It teaches us 2 become unbiased wiv the truth,
And #magnanimous in victory, defeat,
And tedious indifference.

I pulled my #dimensions thrice
but only made 1 cut
it'll sure be nice
if I don't build it fucked up
you've rebuilt yours twice
& I refabbed yer parts
lemme give ye some #magnanimous advice
before ye brag on yer smarts
put that shit in a vice
make it square, from the start
