Slaying ourselves for a living

His black eye 
was howling at me
a story of
smoke,
inner dragons
and rage –
the worst kind of hell
that any God
would ever make.

I asked him,
"Who did this to you?" –
he didn't say a word,
but simply stared 
in the mirror
with a smirk
on his face.

  1. yesterday
    i caught a glimpse
    of my little ghost friend
    i had no idea
    you can find ghosts
    in space
    she is was sitting there
    courageous
    uncertain
    intrigued
    that's how i am
    and she might have been the same
    we both replied with harsh answers
    i don't want to be harsh with her
    but that's what i get
    for staying for too long in space
    i hope she will appear again
    and then
    we might be gentler with each other
    because
    we both know
    she seeks attention
    and i seek more time
    with her
