the screen flickersthe screen flickers - something aboutthe screen flickers
unrequited, purposeful love i turn to that space
where your body used to be
your smile
your heart
and i imagine ...
the space says something about relationships and life i try to stuff this emptiness
with sweat and life
gin and sex
cotton and blankets no man nearby could ever
fill where only you belong and yet ... you wil


SilencedSilencedSilenced
The words come
Bursting the canal that
Holds the fire back Little red flames
Frolic lightly among
The dips and dives A tiny spring of lava
Burst from my ear
Trickling down the jaw Dipping just under The bone, staining
The ghost white skin A river of heat and life
Slipping out of me
Across my throat

ten months of cutting and sewing
and altering the same pattern,
the same dress. ten months of the same length,
no matter how the hem
was argued about. ten months of ironing fabric
just to have it kink again;
tough, good armor. ten months of cutting and sewing

Saint BartholomewSaint Bartholomew I came in and removed my skin becauseSaint Bartholomew
I would rather know now
If this was all you wanted. I wanted to go swimming without my skin.
I wanted to swim in those ocean deep eyes.
I wanted to feel the tingle and burn
Against every inch of exposed muscle.
And when your fingers felt my naked soul
I knew that all your ship wrecking kisses
And your rough ocean eyes would,
At some point tonight, swallow me alive. I came in and removed my skin because
I wanted to float in pain
For just a little while.

I know you're coming in the night like a thief, but I've had some time, O Lord, to hone my lying technique. I know you think I'm someone you can trust but I'm scared I'll get scared and I swear I'll try to nail you back up.
