ExperimentalI don’t want to name you
in languages that will or have
already died. No Latin brands
for you and I - neither of us
are botanists. Neither
labels shoots and leaves

every time we discover
something new
about how our breathing
blossoms bright
the moment that we close our eyes.

Remember what the chemistry coach said,
that Friday of E=mc2? Einstein
and his fantastic theories; we are all just
concentrated sun. Light woven

by the invention of rain,
of God and planets when everything
collided, like you and I did that day

in the research section,
when we decided 100s
didn’t matter – that we

only ever needed us, tExperimental by ~winterkate

Cochineal and Beetle WingsI don’t love you
anymore.

I was going to lead up to this. Maybe claim
there was something caught in my throat
about beetle wings, cochineal – you know,
they make that stuff out of flight. Lipstick, I mean.
I mean the truth is

I can only smile like an inferno because
something else isn’t going to be flying away.
And I was going to say I’m sorry but I’m not.

I was going to lie to you like you needed me to,
but pray tell me how to grace through three weeks I hoped
for some kind(ness) of hurricane, so we could recalculate
in the aftermath, and nobody would blame me then for judging
that we came up empty. Cochineal and Beetle Wings by ~winterkate

bastard.And you’re a fat bastard – I should know. I am one
too. We have a brotherhood of naught-brothership, of driftwood
drifting apart. I burn in all the colors
like the salt-stained. The dry-warped.
We both do; yellowgreenblueblack and such trace hints
of pure red

crackling against the sea with her mouth set
in a breaking line. One day you asked me
why the water wasn’t red, if the sea’s really a fuck
of closed mouths, broken teeth. I told you fuck’s not

making love. That you don’t need
to say anything. You set your red
lips tight. Didn’t speak a word.bastard. by ~winterkate

The poem tips nothing.The poem tips nothing. Perfectly
balanced,
it nods with curt politeness at
me,

the waitress with the emblazoned
name tag reading I
am just trying to get out of here too,
and it does
not pick at my bones (polite).

The poem tips nothing. When it gets up
and leaves,
it leaves exact change, stacked silver
balanced on the blank plate,
enough to rework my lungs
and pewter heart

for when it comes back
again.The poem tips nothing. by ~winterkate

Hey guys.
It's been awhile.
deviantART has been one of the best rides of my life. Through all the drama and stories, I've learned so much about writing here. But though I'll never stop learning, I don't think I'll be on here much more.
I got into my first literary magazine, and I've been accepted to Iowa Young Writers' Studio.
I'm going to start keeping my work, look at Octopus or Kattywompus, start applying to more places. deviantART will always be my first love - and you all too. Thank you.
Thank you all so much
