i learned a secret

about my lover
last night
that i shan’t share
become if i was
to disclose
the truth of her
beauty
the guilty would
throw themselves and converge
in their masses at her
holy feet
their sole redemption
and this truth
the only
precious truth of the heavens
is that i love her so

it

spread like disease
uttered beneath a breath
and every atom collected it
filling
and darted in a moment
to the trees
telling the secret
to the sky and it rained down
into the minds of men
and
made its way
to the masses
but
what's it
to you

write

take each word down
place them
precariously and scribble
force them into eyes and minds
all around you
these words
cannot be forgotten
or you will be
forgotten
and you will be lost
all meaning will be lost
at the sound
of the approaching
rain

cope

douse the pits of your soul
with that sunburnt ***
and adjy the flame
with subtle spirits
lie to me dear
said you craved the cold
but i know you fell in love
with that fire
long ago
