hardcore crushing

what do the wings write, light in the sky

tales told to the whistling, empty guy

stellar moon that turns eyes hibiscus pink

darling dark hair, shining star, who slips his hand away in the morning

      to chase back the night

      woke up early and climbed the dawn, it shook me out like

a spider eating it's babies in my bathtub

      gusts throwing pants and deep-thought-boulders down spring slopes like rice

leading to the back window

opening to daydreams, kiss for a closing of the eyes, low and slow

loosen the heart from aching

 

And Soon You Will Be The Earth, And Get Steamy With The Sun

  • what you sing

    reminds me of crows billowing, in the middle of the day when I can see their wings

    of snow and christmastime, falling bright orange or blue, covering shadows

    watching it all from up high

  • Change O’Clock

    lately i miss owls

    the mountains grumble and grow, pushing up around pumpkin shards and lost dreams

    who i want to be

    who i’m becoming

    i feel like a dusty yellow pear

  • Girl Why Him

    train marriage

    limp white chrysanthemum limbs 

    bent around the black oiled cables

    screeching in rattling orbit until final ends

    when the dog barks at the falling train
