[something]
slow waltz of sirens ghosts the path sea spit splendours elusively near and not near you but the requiem of space leaves a patient mark of this the white curdling on the edge of things

I do not ask the sorrow to stop, but further to take my grief from me would unravel the singlest thread yellowing in my gut dropping as feathers :immaculate gold things heavier than the world of you unfolding and folding as a sea of dust in my serpentine universe I shouldn’t ever ask it to stop rather, as a stone I worry it cherished as the only open glade of my tangled mind

riderless horse, pales in the east bringing in this fragment of blue, trampling off the edge in slow patterns. at night I am lost. I am bleeding. I have asked so. I have nothing to offer you, but the senna of crawling branches under closed moon. absence oils my throat a purple flux of cessing. a vagrant hue. I want your human letters but I am stained with ink. the blue floods my eyes stains the hue of wanderers at the slant of my door. once, I thought I knew my heart but I am mundane and cut with sorrow. I am not forgiving, just a few paw prints left in snow. in a luxurious, shallow sky I am tethered to the kestrel folding itself to my ribs. unraveled in the singing the hemlock spool yellows in my gut. I wander my city of pith as a sickness asking the hole in sky to shut my mouth to the senseless tune of what I do not own.

there is some soft space of you always tearing into me. black claws, coffee laden, drunk from the spirits. I, a manner of scents ascribed by you. tallow of night, drowsiness of hands, wallowing in the redolent shame of past mistakes. we can fjord a victory. green-lanterned. don’t mind the clocks. we, relic of timepiece. ticking lavender and bourbon and truffle salt haloed in tobacco screens. bitter, rapt mouths. in a disheveled state, desired stupor for fumbling hands, the grief of desire rakes us. we know what the guilty do. these streets were chosen. we posted the lanterns. oil light gills us. I do not even regret the time, just the departure. I am still filled with musk. separated, only, by this death between us can either survive, or meander on.

the empty house with a person in it. asking. “sap of progress” the dark matter between us must stay. although, the jackdaws clean the branches clean as bones. stalks for white the roots are full of her fruit, urchins of red in a congealed space. we will leave them there for safe keeping. jam of black, buttoned as a root dweller you will repeat what you have said. I will ask not to uncleave the truth for safe keeping. all these birds. everywhere. there will be nothing left.
