  • Bruise Wane

    I was praying to the yellow fire sky
    That I would find you
    A famished burn
    Searching

    You reopened the directors cut
    Watch
    Here on my wrist is a tattooed constellation of betrayals
    or free releases
    Depending on what you can afford
    to treat the wound

    You’ve seen the world but haven’t caught a glimpse of yourself.

    I’m never done throwing up peace signs in a glass house
    I passed this threshold once before
    I passed this
    philsophers kidney stone and haven’t been this pissed off since

    I get it - I get under your skin
    Your webbed skeleton, encased white phosphorus
    Skin of foiled scattered plots written in a patchwork of lobes and birthmarks
    Skin I haven’t touched
    Since

    I beat myself up over you but
    The bruise wane(s)
    That same flame creating tanned lines of poetics
    But your canon is a cannon
    An odd shaking
    Even the sky of iron shivers
    Like faltering caulk idols

    You took me in
    Like a sorceress who punctured the sun
    And changed everything
