“Well I'm starvin' and freezin'
In this measly old bed
(Then I'll crawl across the salt flats
To stroke your sweet head)
Come across the desert,
with no shoes on?
(I love you truly,
or I love no-one)”

swaying in the closet —
unburdened hooks
and empty drawers —
and everywhere I tried to love you
is yours again,
and only yours.”

Does Not Suffice
Have One On Me (2010)

for you to say I am a sweet girl,
or to say you hate to see me sad
because of you.

as those who love each other do.”

Have One On Me (2010)

Time is just a symptom of love”

Will never grow cold, only taciturn”

Sadie
The Milk-Eyed Mender (2004)

beneath the drifting ashes,
beneath the sheeting banks of air
that barrenly bore our rations?”

Have One On Me (2010)

“What’s redacted will repeat,
and you cannot learn that you burn when you touch the heat,
so we touch the heat,
and we cut facsimiles of love and death
(just separate holes in sheets
where you cannot breathe, and you cannot see).”
