What goes up Must stay in sky. Dum v. v. What ain’t ancient Ain’t coming back. Dum v. v. I howl Dum v. v. From the back of my throat Which is filled with malbec Matched moonlight And you say you can’t hear. Dumb to see. Let us be. What spills from the block of […]
You are gorgeous and I’m sadly ostracized from the table at the moment. Intrigue and blue Awnings, the ceilings we celebrate fade to night. If the wind breaks, the crops they creak. They have no other feet. If the sirens call, the dirt cannot to them speak Back, cannot haunt the sleep Of a farmer […]

On the east coast, we reconvene a drunken yesterday. sighs sift the seaboard snow flings unwanted decor on the pillared houses we head to bed before the world changes.
