(k)

you familiar angel find me
walking while asleep. your faceless
body & changeless forms follow to awaken me.

the sweet I tasted in your mouth
defines the taste of sweetness
the depth between your lips
defines the limitless

& you finally disappear
after a sudden arrival.
absence shocks like lightning
briefly illumined
static definition
effortless force
ignition.

(I remember one girl.)

I remember one girl.
She chewed her food well.
She decimated and destroyed
before digesting.

I suck down, swallow
and allow every afterthought,
all uncooked grain
stow & stew below.

I loose my sight by the second.
I loose my hearing by the hour.
I loose my teeth by the day.

I believe her haircut.
It suits, and spins me.
Certain perfection shatters.
I cannot write a single sentence for myself.

Every spilt word is meant to be heard.
Every stain is someone else’s,
always given away.
