Nov 2022
i wake in the easy dawn, i forget my place.
you spread your arms, your wings, adjacent me,
angelic still.
bright light in your eyes, in your teeth, your fragile heart.
dust pools in my hair and in my sheets.
where were you?
ash coats my tongue, strawberry memories turn to stone in the back of my throat.
the bed is grey. the bed is empty.
i remember my place.
