i write "you"
like you are the lines
in my palm
and the blue in
my blood.
i write "you" like
you is me
and the air you breathe
is in my lungs.
i write "you" like
i have the stars of your eyes
in my heart
and your body is carved
to mine.
i write "you" like
we have met and
like i love you,
(i do).

my hands have never moved
along the
l e n g t h (of his)
spine and i
don't know what it is to be kissed.
i don't dance in his arms
or write him letters with my lips
we don't sit in heart-pounding silence
our tangled feet, tangled together.
i love him,
but i don't know who he is
(and i)
have never
been in l o v e.

in this lustful state of mind
thinking just of you.

my legs are long enough
to wrap themselves around your heart
and drag it with me into the ******* ground.

moonshine
is for people
less
than you
but the moon,
is for people
worlds greater.

"powerful weapon"

from when i slept
(in) your arms
the night you let the bath run

don't yell at me
and then forget
to close
the kitchen door.

freckle lined and hued with pink
angled gently in a curved facade
red, curled and pillowed
over her face and around
her ear.
coppered brown flick her
eye and eye and eye
trickle down, find
the bridge and there
***** of inhalation.
the arch of hair
lead over her forehead
blank in between
pointing downward to end
at the tip of her lip.
a lip turned coral
by the line of blood
traveled continually
hill to hill to hill.
her ear linked to the
gentle flaked cover
of her body.
word after word
floating from her throat
murmured into heartache
of an adrift lover.
marking her cheek up
and down
placed darkly
and with magic.
