I’m a woman with the head of Adam. You are a man with the body of Eve. Conjoined and bound, like two air-tied towers, we sting each other during the dark hours. Our prophecy burns as one with the flame. Equally shifting, our hearts are the blame. Eternally falling, disgraced dirt-mesh, systemed twins–I with breathContinue reading “A Black Cat Moment”

A Black Cat Moment
You see, I have one more bullet left. It just sits waiting alone in its last chamber. It has a name; it’s called Rejection. You died once; I killed you. But if you’ve been planning to resurrect in your newly found flesh, just to come my way, that last sound you’ll hear was from theContinue reading “A Black Cat Moment”
A Black Cat Moment
Open your mouth. Open wide. Wider. A little more…there, that’s it! Now, here it comes. Can you see me pawing the ground? Beat! Beat! Slap! Slap! Let me scoop out some more. What? What do you say now? Come again. Oh, you ask why my claws are digging the dirt so furiously? Well, now thatContinue reading “A Black Cat Moment”
A Black Cat Moment
Secluded in a cold, dark room, I held tonight a solitary seance. There were no boards, no planchette, no candles, no table, no chairs, and no opening prayer. I’m the Black Cat, and they knew I didn’t require anything to speak directly to your soul. Only neophytes need religious books, crystal pendulums, Tarot cards, andContinue reading “A Black Cat Moment”
A Black Cat Moment
Marked by her yellow-black-white bands, the caterpillar inched cautiously her way up his face onto the right side of his jowly cheekbone line. Her prolegs loved its cool touch. The friction underneath them energized her confidence. Calmly, she crawled her way up and up, and with each passing moment, she saw herself grow stronger andContinue reading “A Black Cat Moment”

I see a king wearing his crown, sitting on a cloud, not wanting to come down.
A Black Cat Moment, The Missing Titan, Part 4
The New Titanic “Waste, modern heirs, your infamy!” cries she With open eyes. “Give me your greedy, your rich, Your quiet few lusting to die freely, The cheerful consent of your barren flight. Plunge these, the prosperous, trouble-free to me, I yank their pride into the murky light!”
A Black Cat Moment, The Missing Titan Part 2
Dear Missing Titan, Has this been your way to bomb me with love? I ask you for I have much been enjoying counting the number of ways you have kept mentioning my name. Let’s see. Sea floor. Sea base. Sea bed. C-17. High seas. Let’s wait and see. Deep-sea mapping. Deep-sea search. See what IContinue reading “A Black Cat Moment, The Missing Titan Part 2”
A Black Cat Moment, The Missing Titan Part 1
Dear Missing Titan, How misled you were. You attempted to compete with me. You did not know my dark depths. You wanted to know, so you chose to trespass. Breathless, you were left. That should now teach others to never build a vessel to control the pitch-black sea. There are no miracles here. I governContinue reading “A Black Cat Moment, The Missing Titan Part 1”
A Black Cat Moment
I found a paper bag the whistling wind blew my way. It had no handle, no hold. It was empty inside, no purpose, no fold. I decided to pick it up from where it had been flown and walk with it to the market. We went up and down the vegetable and fruit aisles andContinue reading “A Black Cat Moment”
