Swimming eyelids,  fracture my sleep

My ribs,a trap door to my mind
Woven weakness's, cage my hope
Bones of men fight the sunlight
I kissed the moon with cracked teeth
Comets weeping, undone
Snow drops,a psychedelic Violin
Swimming home in a cosmic orb

Filling cups with generations of pain,
Refusing to drink it anymore
Segregation, deprivation, invasion
I'm barely breathing
Scrap me from this earth
As I taste it

The music child tasting the sound
Tucking myself into this moment
As Jupiter lies under my bed
A slender moon brushes my cheek
Pine cone fingers made of blood root sap
Lace fireflies collect their thoughts in the silver maple trees

Hamlet my lightening rose
Summer on my lips
I tunnel and tangle inside you
Drinking from the basin of your youth
Earths saliva scribbles upon my dust
Cosmic beauty with a creatures face

Sweltering groins in the church pew heat
Dolorous gospels outcry
Lines of blackberries spread as the morning grows
Daylilie's hanging on for dear life
Men's brows wiped hastily
Silence that deafens a room
In this temple of my homestead
