medusas curls

phlwest Aug 2020

I only realize I’m late once I notice that the woman with
Medusa’s curls isn’t at the platform.
People as units of measure.
The clock of the world.

the sun swore at us in pink:
'take the ******* hint'
we took it and ****** again.

beauty

beauty

backs against the roof
heads tilted, eye to eye
sun down, night skies
there's beauty in you
the endless kind
