A tree’s sonata

Posted on January 27, 2016 By adcitlali

Don’t you adore the sway of that tree?    It’s icy branches reflect moonlight,    as slow motion sparkles.    Don’t you want to join its rhythm?    Move your arms gracefully,    free your feet and shine?    Sway away. Scintillate.    Release your freedom.    Adore.    _____Adriana…

Did I?

Posted on January 12, 2016 By adcitlali

I remembered you red, crimson red, with blue eyes, dark suit. A glare burnt into forced amnesia. A flare that lingered through the fall. Forbidden faint memories, triggered by the echo of my voice —I don’t need you. You don’t need me.     I saw you after the storm yesterday….

A glimpse

Posted on January 4, 2016 By adcitlali

Eyelids open, eyelids shut. A glimpse to the other side, maybe a ghost or dragonfly. Amelia follows the luminous, transparent wings. Their flutter leaves a red and golden trail with a faint azalea fragrance. Amelia closes her eyes, and follows the scent through dark woods and starless skies. Ears listen,…

Fear is a darkened rose

Posted on December 17, 2015 By adcitlali

Fear is a rose with black mask. Fear is what makes us move. It is the next step we ought to take. the uncertainty of turning left or right. I fear me, I, all and nothing. Then I walk. I take the road… I step out. I fall, I run,…

I have no intentions, yet I smile

Posted on December 14, 2015 By adcitlali

You!                 Sharp blue  you! Will you trick me?         Won’t you enchant me? Your lips have the magnetism of a flower high on Stravinsky notes. I look at them.              Ignore the words. What’s that curiosity you evoke? I have no intentions,     yet I smile. There is distance,         yet you…

Passion under icy rain

Posted on November 25, 2015 By adcitlali

Write your emotions!    –I hear. All I can think of is pizza and ice, or a kiss  and a hand-shake, vinegar and wine. That doesn’t make any sense! Why can’t I express myself coherently today? All I imagine is passion under icy rain; random sequences of vivid/lifeless vibes. Neon lights…

Death and jazz

Posted on October 30, 2015 By adcitlali

I think of you and wonder ’bout     death and cycles     dawns or sunsets        nightmares     doors     bliss     It’s all mixed up     blended into amorphous impressions     Unseen thoughts                   right here Old jazz inside my head Music fused with closure maybe also melancholy or serenity…

Overwhelmed

Posted on September 17, 2015 By adcitlali

Just in the last month, Amelia has:       1) Randomly silenced her phone       2) Hid five times from her diary       3) Walked on eggshells around her own thoughts       4) Slept ten nights with her head under the pillow       5) Snoozed six rounds for  at least  seven mornings Amelia is now charged…
