Sharp teeth like shimmering diamonds in the dark
Dead of night
Pronged in a mouth as soft as satin
Unforgiving underground
Unforgiving as God's gated hell

I sprinkle a ring of forget-me-not flowers around our feet
I watched your eyes as they fell
Not-On-Me
But onto the petals that fly into the air as I dropped to my knees
Flocks of small sky-blue planes
Far far away
Much too far past where the eye can see
