what's the stupid smirk doing on your face

wipe
it
off

it's a disgrace

it's no use,
leave the earth around our tomb alone

there are no flowers left there
for bees to pollinate
with whispers of why we fell

left & leaving

the sun ain't sleeping

tears thick on lashes
cloud one's vision

learn to speak slowly
and deliberately

so that my eyes
might understand you
better
than my ears

Inspired by a reading of Rumi by Tilda Swinton

morning
could come
and there would be
no way
to wring
my hands
of their
loneliness

we can't all laugh off another's
longing
and
eye roll so beautifully.

we haven't even reached tyronne street

/the end of our lives

we've still got a block to walk

/twenty years together

morning would come
and cast a shadow off your lower lip
the dark valley always
signals
for me to kiss you awake.

how well
do i know
that slow
heartache
of waking
to the moon
and not the sun

it's that natural light
while making friends
with shy dust

that makes me feel most happy
and less cold

your heart an abandoned model home
i'd invited myself into...

you're neither girl
nor woman

i'm a man,
you're a machine
i fed too many numbers

i suppose
now
i needed another mother
not a child that needed
looking after

Three months in summation.

i
sure,

it may be possible to wash the sweat off
but you stay long after

ii**
and regret leaves a stench much worse

In retrospect.
