From morning blackThis call I can do nothing else, I picked his pockets far from home I prayed for love I prayed for strength and honesty,From morning black
In the morning the tears come for new teeth, for desire unjust like a foreign shore I cried for the fleeting hope it was me, For all our breaking hearts in which I might finally escape this anger
Sometimes I know in my heart I'll carve it in the Earth like a womb, but it's Christmas and all the restless words are gathering
I have such needy arms, I've tried to console them
with others; a stiller,


Enjoy Your RabbitWe went further than before, A cold night stung with mosquitoesEnjoy Your Rabbit
first catching flowers stole from vines
In the hours of mist I remembered why I loved her soul bleeding over stronger than lust In a room with a teal moon mouths cracked like cellos, ripped her dress just to
pull it closer again, the soul-stretching sound
In the panic I heard things I couldn't know, Beautiful demon-voices that rose above graves
You brought God close and then he rowed away, when I awoke I would smile and hug the world
inside the blue-white covers &nbs

A hole that no one escapesHow do the stars cope with the ritual hanging? Upstanding pained screams in the street last night. I didn't interfere. The copious street lanterns See the dragonflies circling scared As though the light might lemon dropA hole that no one escapes
A man is down there Staring at the waves of shadow
As though his missing child Were square below their swollen dresses
I see that things are shaded by ghosts I know this because they visit me Like butterflies of a night, the wind-hunted candle
Mention nothing the blue linen crafts
Perhaps to trap a ghost would be like wr

it was raining, daylight and grey, but I could not mind it, twisting through the rungs of a border of trees, half avenue, part shelter of the cliffs,
and the further we went, the further from all my twelve tasks, each more fervent and beast-guarded than the last.
My gaze, directed at the waves off the rocky roadcollar, smears of foam arranged upon the sea lips, thrusting into pinnacles of beach-teeth and retreating black jaws -
somehow, I just leaned with the corners,  


The Familiar DiseaseThat frayed-edged patch of cyan cannot belong in the sky today, when a woman is given a thin allotmentThe Familiar Disease
a slither of life to finish her living
There's a thing in her, you say flat, a cancer that won't translucent suck a coral thumb, and in six, nine, twelve months,
it will grow to kill her
and I don't know what to say to you because I've never touched a frayed edge of a life,
I've only seen green faces in open coffins of bodies that used to be real, and I don't what to say
perhaps if we learnt to just always protect, always trust, always hope,
