Step over the unpleasantness of dogs
people whose sweat remains in tshirts
long after washing
these lived things give you no succor
you find in grains of sand
the diorama
worth opening the mouth of
the ocean for
like Joni Mitchell as an old woman
in duvet dress and onyx skin
as if she climbed back in
and the womb remade her
a changeling creature
able to sing beneath tenderizing waves
all the days her heart strings
taunt and long
able to flaunt, preen and holler
for after we are tired and done
only the echoes of those good malted times remain
like friends who have stayed after the party
to clean up
to kick their shoes off
sit in cold rooms
with warm, warm
stamen hearts
I collapse into you as the world lurches
Your smile I can feel
even in darkness
Love this one! 👍🖤
Evoking a refuge, a sanctuary of arms and breath and comfort, so beautiful.
May that darkness never come
💜💜💜
