Held not taken
Closer than desire
Further than a wave that sings
A mirror with a tether
Afloat in midnight wine
Goblet gold trim
Patina on a hymn
Sing a dirge
Brush by on the wind
Never did I dream
You only hummed a tune
Tide swept glass frozen
Moment in time #forbidden
A smile unforgiving

Between gigs, pan-galatic punks Peach Schnapps & the Poltergeists play with the ship's cat:
Peach: No.
Kurt Kerf2: C'mon!
Peach: No!
K2: But she loves it!
Peach: No! Remember the last time we her space catnip?
K2: She woke you up?
Peach: And that's why it's #forbidden!

It's so amazing finally having a relationship where the only thing that is #forbidden is lying. Being free to love whomever I want and never having to deny a natural connection opens up a whole new world. While I certainly haven't learned to transcend jealousy, I'm getting better at coping.

squawking mockingbird
crowing about its latest
catch acting as if
some dime a dozen berry
is gods own forbidden fruit

“Forbidden” – I’m one of those … people …. whose immediate reaction is, “oh yeah?” Don’t tell me what to do. Don’t tell me what not to do. All you’ll get from me is a growl and a look at my sharply filed teeth. If you're lucky. Bob here on the ground, his throat still oozing blood, wasn't.

Temptation is not conquered by resistance—according to Lord Henry.
Resistance teaches the soul to long for what it has #forbidden to itself—according to Oscar Wilde.
What was forbidden was still printable—according to Lippincott's.
What was printed was outrageous—according to the public.

Within the field of politics today
It seems #forbidden for us to say
That we have so much more in common
Than as Jo said, that which divides us
#Vss365
The privy stood locked;
a midden most #forbidden,
latch, unforgiving.

I awaken heavy
with the weight of an entire #forbidden lost world
cradled within my ribcage.
Each weakened breath
a muting between chasms.
I enshroud this vacuous detritus
in pigment and thread.
My scent of jasmine obfuscating
the I don't know
I carry.
