		(love obsidian, I still maintain my collection)   
Snowflake Obsidian, 
igneous rock, 
within it, white patterns, 
I like it a lot.
 
I hear the tinkling  
of obsidian glass, 
see her footprints  
in volcanic sands.

 I saw her footprints
 on the shore...
 the waves they washed;
 footprints no more.

 footprints wash away,
 but echoed in the soul,
 imprints left deep-
 memoirs toll.

 The words you said to me are imprinted on my soul.
 The words you said to me, they tore in my heart a hole-
 I wish you would take back those words that you meanly said,
 I never will get over them, not until I’m dead.

 Dead words
 dreamed long ago
 be gone
 be there

(well, are they gone or there?)   
we wield only words 
come on, they won’t pinch 
they don’t leave a scar or tattoo  
get over it and live

 Long ago I dreamed every time
 when on my bed I’d recline.
 Now (thanks to the pot)
 I don’t dream a lot
 and I like it that way just fine
 
 
 EDIT Chris - you beat me again I must be slow.

 I dreamed of a scar (or tattoo?),
 On my bed ev'rytime I'd recline.
 Was this karma I had to accrue?
 Or had cancer cells dined on my spine?

 On my spine I got a tattoo;
 a butterfly colored in blue.
 My partner complained,
 It  wasn’t his name,
 So I got that tattooed on too.

 within intimate folds

 My ex-partner well he was a prick
 he thought  he was  smart, he was thick
 One day in May
 I ran away-
 Of him I was thoroughly sick.

 A thoroughly thumbed-through black book
 from off the table I took
 a partner to find
 for a fun time
 I’ll find one, by hook or by crook.

 Book of black computer hack;
 Give the god damn thing a thwack.
 Damned be he who holds it back;
 Wrack him with a heart attack
 (Either that or dental plaque).

 A forum-mad man, Billy Whey
 fancied a poster named May.
 He hacked her computer
 but she was astuter
 her address was hidden away

 This here is a vulgar wee forum
 it's lacking in any decorum
 and so very crude
 all our posters are nude
 and if they object we back door 'em
 
It could be worse

 A salty young lass from down under,
 Wielded words willy-nilly asunder.
 We brayed at her spray,
 But fell prey to her play:
 Her thunder, our whimper, her plunder.

 Sheilas from down under, they play
 on the beach in bikinis all day.
 The men are all bludgers
 who wear budgie smugglers
 to hide their old fellows away
 
 *budgie smugglers –  tight-fitting men’s bathers

 Sporting fresh a pontoon
 that struggles to sail free
 he wants to volley ball her bottom,
 bowl her bocce breasts

 He struggled with her wedding dress
 (he wanted to fondle her breasts.)
 She unzipped the back
 with lips he attacked
 them , you can imagine the rest...

 no, I can't imagine the rest
 did he suck upon her breast,
 did she fondle his pole,
 put it into her hole,
 all before getting undressed?
 
How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
 The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
