Formaldehyde Mistress Poem by Matthew Densley
Formaldehyde Mistress
Rid me of your glowing ember
The one that burns within desire
What price I'd pay to not remember
The soothing smoke from off your fire
To hold you gently in my hand
To feel your kiss upon my lips
A bliss that most can't understand
There is no high that could eclipse
You left me in a puff of smoke
Yet still I feel your presence near
There never was a word you spoke
But whispers I could always hear
Now that you're gone, I can be free
My time with you, I'll never miss
Though poison as you were to me
I still can't help but crave your kiss

One need only to experience the event That is by Nature, the lingering scent Coming to those near and far That think only of the tar. The tar that so much lingers On the outstretched fingers Grasping the vehicle that brings A tranquility to most addicted human beings. So do like many do Count the years of pleasure that are few If you give up all that pleases To address the plague that never ceases. Life is full of distressing pains That one endures it seems Enjoy those moments of bliss Which you describe as a simple kiss. s
