just past shadow dance
and the puppet theater of her ember ring

[i am the branch breaking in the dark ]

in her dark
in HER dark

i step.

success
is a measure
of pleasures
kfaye Dec 2024
Than grabbing


each other’s wrists
kfaye Dec 2024
i find myself
again, in that plaster hallway
upon
those salt-beaten steps
and the home i’d lost, returns to me
not in molecules. but in fragmented lights.
she fills
me

wrists
will remain
where placed
despite any attempts to the contrary .
kfaye Dec 2024
each other’s wrists
and the pull towards something.
kfaye Dec 2024
i will spin your flesh like wool
just for the morsel of your heart
i will stop the music
and look at you

i will look at you

/and at the wet extremities
we dine together.
