Cold Flowers
I looked back; the city stretched and
pulled me under. I’ve lost my mind
in its jewellery stores and rat-holes,
eyes rolled seasick across its floors.
Angels and murderers ride the trains
mutely and cough when they cover
their mouths, flash their knives,
bare their teeth.
I’ll still walk a broken tunnel
long after I am gone
when the place has been picked clean
and the sun has passed out in her party
dress, the fairs all rolled away and
electric lights dying –
when I’ve made it to the edges
crying and muddy on the banks of the river
where God and the water meet
she’ll still be spread there, the slee

november is calling
I trace your ink-infused skin
with my wanting fingertips
and I remember the better
days. You were younger

in the hottest of
the summer days
in the driest of
your parched kingdom.
My love is water.
It's a river,
zigging
zagging
f l o w i n g,
running rapidly,
coursing through
the forests of
your body,
subsiding in the
deltas of you.
My love is water.
It's a raindrop
in a storm,
so small, so clear,
yet so destructive;
it will deface you
but it will make you grow
into a lush green meadow.
My love is water.
It's the snow
in the winter,
falling like angels from the sky —
so beautiful,so
