right under this
arch of bone
theres a little tiny daydream
singing to me from the backseat.
with my back against
the golden concrete,
the under-colour of my eyelids
turns the sun into this
sleepy glowing cinema
where:
i’m two-step waltzing with you
by the tangerine lampstand
which makes the room sweet.
when we’re tired,
i’m kissing you ear to ear
and i turn that lampstand off.
by now — though — the sun is shining
from the
inside
and it’s in this way that we keep
the light in

There has to be something besides a temper tantrum beyond the initial anxiety or discomfort. I haven’t found it yet, but even if it’s just the total snap into not caring, where the fuck is it?
I slice grief
down to the bone
pull the meat off
with my bare hands
until I can’t wash it
away
Will you let me
hold your head
in my hands
fingers still dripping?
Will you
kiss the funeral
of my body
each weeping chair
catching rain
on the grass?
I slice grief
down to the bone
then grind the bone
into powder
Are you hungry for
the marrow of me?
Can you touch me and
come away
still clean?
”There hasn’t been enough writing, and I guess I was trying to find a voice in something else but now I can’t put anything together. I can’t sit down and scribble page after page like I used to, I think the word bank might have been limited from the start.
