Wrighteous Wrens
Darling hatched from fragile stone
chirping nakedly in your infancy;
you will not be a suitable daughter.
You will not be angelic or saintly
as you barely raise a pious wing. -
Chasing Tail
You kissed me like how you eat
apples with mundanity and matte eyes.
Your bra clasp is a cracked wishbone
held by a child’s birthday prayer. -
Horse Corpse
So large and gentle, you were
a special sort of worker.
Strong from weathered weary,
braving the wearied weather. -
An Ineffable Sestina
Ultimately, she will be served
on her stained bed of silver,
placed on the table of a rich man
with an apple in her mouth
forced into a glazed dress
with her palms pointed to God. -
She Still Knows
I do not remember when we were young
or how large the world once seemed,
this is one of the things only she knew. -
Written Meals
I do not know how to bake
something from scratch,
like my mother’s cookies.
With her instinctual precision
and her habitual familial ease.
I did not inherit this side of her.
Loves
-
about she.
she has short and messy dyed red hair
she has dark brown eyes that glow in sunlight
she is silent
she is a good friend
she has fading signed shoes
she is nice

Miss You
I miss you like I miss my childhood and good God,
I think it's because that's what you were.
You were a childhood fantasy and now you are gone
we're
two teenagers who don't look when we pass in the hall
-
diaspora
there is a crack in the eye of man
like glass, the light in the fracture
is split like the millions who came before it
never to reform
-
What Happened?
Do you still remember me?
After all these hours that turned into days
That turned into months then years
Do you still remember? -
Great Nullification
Every vow cried to the tip of a saber,
Every soul sold to a higher or lower power,
Every road paved to lead others astray,
Is nullified.
Revoked,
