Dear son of Michelangelo
Why, you must be a man made of marble—
What else could have sculpted a face so beautiful
And a form so lithe, yet untouchable?

without witness
I walk a ghost among the mourners,
plucking stitch
after stitch
into my own burial shroud
—with a rose
tucked into the sleeve
as though one day,
a dedicated love might find itself here

searched the vast horizon
and in the salt spray,
in every leaf and bramble
found you wanting

oh, to be kissed
as the sun does this laquer skin
to breathe and be beautiful
effortlessly.

bogeyman at the masquerade
what figment of me
lives in your whispers?
what shadow dances
on your crumbling walls?
