Duck

My grandmother had the face of a duck
My mother has the body of a duck
And I am happy like a duck

Prose

He gives me a rose
As he talks in purple rose
In water, we dip our toes

Blood

I'm shaking at the knees
Lucid and faint
I never asked for any these
As the blood drips taint
My silk sheets and tepid tears

Driving

I'm cruising
For a bruising
I'm thrashing
For a smashing

Sea

Like a drowning painter
In the treacherous depths
With oil paints, thick and rolling,
On a soggy canvas
Painting the sea
Your presence swells
And I paint you
Drowning me

Ichor

Violet delights
And sweet iridescence
Dreams lost in the aether
Oh, what a marvellous life

Seasons

My old loves died
In the springtime
My new loves died
In the summertime
