Unalloyed Words


By: Gus Victoria

Unalloyed words,
Devoid of pretension,
No inhibition,
Freed without coercion
To wreak havoc
On the field
That the heart has plowed
In violation of Fate’s decree,
Selfish the harvest planned,
More the desires rampant
Giving wing to those words,
Another sip,
Another line,
Time makes distance,
A growing barrier
Space cannot breach,
“I..” began the mantra,
spoken in “love”
that “you” would hear.

Chasing the Fairy #7


By: Gus Victoria

Light!
A lover’s flame lit,
Fiery comfort
Of a charred memory
Encased in glass
Glowing brightly,
The way leading
To the lost gone
Wandering in wait.
Expectation of Desperation
For a thin faith fled.
They wait alone
Crowded in their solitude,
Pitied before loved,
Keepers and jailers,
Barriers to their own happiness,
Blind to the fire
Of Passion,
Slaves to desire
They cannot posses.
