Everything Dissolves into Flowers
the bantering of rain
the insinuation it might snow
the mirage of moonglade
the mountain drink
the desert thirst
everything
resolves with flowers
a withered realm
a crestfallen kingdom
their copper queen withdrawing
from the bitter harvest
in the spirit of Persephone
everything
dissolves into flowers

cigarette daydreams
play with your fear
let it tickle your fingers,
let it heat up your nerves,

Broken inside
We're so broken inside
that we're suspicious of

A Plea to Cupid on Valentine’s Day

A Plea to Cupid on Valentine’s Day
Cupid
cherub of love
you pierced me with your arrow
but instead of hitting my heart
you stabbed my vein
and I was gone
I was not struck with patient love
or kind love
or splendid love
but a love sickness that became a vice
in the shape of him
so today, dear Cupid
retract your arrow from inside me
set me free
let this be my rock bottom
of this, I plea
