eyes like windows shatter before dawn as angels fall

tied a red thread to my tongue and spoke until my mouth was full of knots

crack open the earth and we’d all tumble in lost in dirt

our hands are mist separating the night and seas

we bury the moon each night and it grows through our ribs

when the flame forgets it’s a flame will the wax harden with vengeance

roots clutch earth like a body that knows its grave

saltwater dreams somewhere a bird forgets its wings

there is no darkness only flesh pretending to be alive

we too are seeds waiting for wildfires to cremate us
