Poems
Sep 2010
me, morrissey, and the wishing well (to end well).
i think i
would like
to fall
into love again,
like a deep dark well
i
could
descend
in.
the days light slipped out--
gravity calls
it in other directions.
i do not miss it,
but sometimes i do
get reminiscent.
passing stones, gray--
far past illumination.
and for moments, forever:
i feel such
a heavy weightlessness.
my mouth agape,
but fear isn't a voice here.
i yearn for impact;
i howl for it.
when i am aging
at this velocity,
every futures growing
more and more
present.
and so
i break fingers
on every lonely stone,
and i bruise, like sunlight
thrown on
smashed human bones.
i drip,
like rain that longs
to be a lake again.
but for now,
i'm reflecting on
stars
burning holes
in the reservoirs,
because
i think i
would like
to land
into a heart again,
splashing,
like a rock dropped
to see where
a deep dark well ends.
