DRESSED IN WHISKY LEATHER-TOWING TOMBS AND FOGGY WEATHER

drinking the whiskey
dressed in the leather kiss
mystic mythical fog
draped across your suicide shoulders
carrying yesterdays grave still awash in lily'sΒ white
bribed in the hearse
sold to another sun filled rave
laying on unwashed sheetsΒ 
we flew across the orgasmic smiles
blessed the ancient signs drawn in blood

when morning gave us sight
i drove you in a rose filled car
placed my lips inside the nearest of your pockets
handed back the green glass
love never knew the tide had run

mystic,mythical,fog
how love gave birth
counting its cost in unused red glass phone booths
moments that we sacrificed in hidden inca alters
terrified that touch brought this felling of stars

we meet in each shattered glass
each shredded lip
teased skin and loose escape
the night we held each others breath
melting.mythical fog

dressed in whisky leather
smoking the whispers held in grace
scraping tomb hitched behindΒ 
incomplete this name i found
