1.

it was morning, once, he remembers
it had to be
but he lost her somehow

2.

wind cold and sharp
breath of frost and fury
entering her void

3.

a cliff two steps back
dreams still ahead
flying away

4.

***** hands on the skin
then slithering inside
and the taste remains

5.

something like a storm in the eyes
drops salty and bitter
and light, everywhere, light

6.

a hunger for flesh in the wilds
for there is desire
but he's not here

7.

threads warping the lips
****** needles
needed silence, and right

8.

hands up, touching the sun
clouds under the feet, and a voice:
higher

9.

light through the slit and secrets
thorns all around it
and darkness

10.

hooked, gravely ill,
mania, dread and ache;
a heart
