walking on eggs
i slipped
and
broke
my head
destroyed
my body

i know who
you
are
sitting there
in
the dark
you're the
same person
as
me
tiger shark

set sins in stone
wrap blanket in birds
and
let them atone

walking towards the park
under open ladders
and
stepping on sidewalk cracks
and
passing black cats in broken mirrors
you will never
be rid of
me

paper hearts dissolved in water/remnants framed in gilded glass/fresh heat on the rim/from your lips
dissipates/into the air/and is absorbed/by my hunted skin/another silent weapon in my arsenal/of fatal wounds

...

on the nights
the immortal girls
their
andromeda hips
are
blowing dusted sunlight out of
angelic *****
and pursing cherry red
****** vagrant lips
i want to be
the first and
the last
sealing the faultline
of devotion
with your
unrequited thoughts
said aloud from your cigarette mouth
while  
all
the other lonely girls
at
the second chance ballet
dance inside the smokeclouds stack
share their lipstick
and
blush

what sedate openings
your pretty mouth doesn't lack
the feline grace of the new
and an orchid palate of tact
to feel those words push
past your lips and onto my own
is a sheltering message of belief
consecrated on these long white sheets
your floral body of dew
that i live and die beneath
