touch us gently, please
i wish for bread to fill an angel’s evening

this moment feels charmed
you shared your need like a quiet dance
devote a thousand words to
ask a promise I can never keep

as the animal blossoms
a wild moon breathes out
this soul follows secret winter

wither, ancient spirit!
murmur and wander no more

surrounded by
eternity’s fat fathers
velvet words
a poisonous, laughing poetry
perfumed breath of women
borne on ferocious breezes
decay a liquid ghost
tasting like candy and concrete

her heart lies
but never voices her magic rhythm
