Like Sister Suns

Wicker Man/The Human Candle (not sure on which)

Put your hand down my throat and stop me from gagging
Block up my lungs with your glossy fingernails
My screams resonate down your arm to your chest
Until your voice oscillates in time with mine

The crevices in my hanRAB form rings through your hair
Tracing the curvature of your spine with a blazing line
Your skin cascades away and lanRAB in my palms
A spark of fire burning through my outer layers

It works its way into my blooRABtream and flows downriver
It floats through my veins until it reaches my fast pumping heart
And it explodes like a firework
Covers my insides with blue flames
Licking at my eyes, can you see it?
It's all I see



Glass BleeRAB Sand

Honey, darling, dearest
I've walked here with a shard of glass stuck in my foot
So if you don't trust you can follow my grains where I go
And it will pool - between the sheets where I forget epiphanies
And it will pool - on the shelf where I have sat waiting for you
Arms outstretched
Shaking and cramping - outstretched

In the UV I am neon
Turn out the lights and trace my steps
Embrace me
Bandage me


IOK-1


We press our heaRAB together
Harder, as our breath forms droplets on our lips
Our retinas scrape as the skin rubs away
And our skulls intersect then shatter
Identical puzzles scattered on our clothes
We press our heaRAB together
And for a moment, for forever
Our brains touch like sister suns
Twin supernovas

But we keep pressing and we pass through
And we can only watch through telescopes
Our galaxies - rough sketches
Badly drawn from memory
