Ceramics of love

The ceramics of love

(By Gub 20th of Sept, 2009, Canada)

...through your absence,

I know your substance,

The void displaced

When you are near...

In my weakness

You are the

Expansion

Of air

That shields my heart

From flying glass

Your hands

The petals

That fold

Tight

Around the cracks 0f my

Fragile vase....

Luminous

Blue veins

Criss-cross fractured

Porcelain lines.

A vessel

Shaken

Only by your laughter

Or stirredby your tears....

Proof

(20th of Sept, 2009, London)

Flaky walls

Cracks

Crumbs
Scattered on the floor

Hungry paws

Crass

Wood-marks in red

Footprints of
Wine-glasses that carelessly bled

Greasy fingers on glass

Scratches
Scouring
Resurfaced mass

Life marks its territory

With great pizzazz

Mess delineates
Being from bust

Entropy blends our presence

Into a cocktail of
Meaning
And menace

Every touch
Another dent

Our very living

Silent assault
Against the integrity
Of matter

Around us bent
