Poems
Sep 2018
pneuma
that
which is breathed,
and blown
well
do not exhale me a soul
exile me
to the cold
impinging
sinking, stinging
pity
no
be brief;
be terse
without a kindness to me
cast me off;
trade the scald
for the scoff
no mercy
leave
go, love
go and love
at the cost of me
destined, empty
linger, singing
like the limping thrush
caught under the cat tongue
of nicotine
numbing
throbbing
thrashing in the blood
