I Flirt with Silence in the Pillowy Ache of Ice Water


A howl, a strum, you and I and naps in lantana.
Silver headstones in mans decline.
In the gait of the dandelions ween, making fists with her toes in tire-tracks of mud,
the clumps oil drunk and balding blades of emerald's fray.

She took baby steps,
eclipsed in the midst of a marvelous dream as one more somnambulist against the world.

She simpered heavens as if god himself had a vested interest in her existence and she could care less about it.

Her heart pumped jet fuel through brand new veins,
her extremities bucked like a doe's full of sex skewed by streams of television
