Anji Carter Poems

Sweet baby 'Sugar Lips',
His minuscule Lolita.
Crooning,
Coaxing kisses,
...

When the winds of Heaven dance
Can you recognize the rhythm
Is it something that you're sure
You've heard before?
...

Indifferent moods, with ranged perspective,
Rearranged and strange, deranged, deflective angles of light,
With colours altered.
Eyes can see, but mind has faltered.
...

I'm feeling lost!
Somewhere inside the depths of my ego...
I know there is lurking the doppelganger of myself.
But when I look, it hides.
...

Sometimes my mind can feel so strange,
An endless teeming mountain range.
A snow of thoughts, falling swift,
Into chasms, into drifts.
...

These strange confused contusions, are they a part of me?
And if they are, then why are they?
I have a mind that runs at tangents, tying itself in knots,
It's always getting lost.
...

Will I be drawn by what I knew before?
Life is a whirlpool, I am very small.
Dreams are like clouds, evaporate too soon.
They carry thoughts and aspirations,
...

No matter how far you go from me in this life -
You began with me.
My breaths gave you your first taste of air,
My heart pumped my blood into your veins
...

This is my room.
Here in my attic haven I am queen.
But also it is yours, for you are friends, and share my dreams.
Come share with me this glass house deep within the sea,
...

Incandescent, spinning, spiralling in the midst of my alter-ego,
Thoughts…
Circumstances provoking reactions,
Some to which my preference would be rejection,
...
