A FIT, AN ABSOLUTE WHIRLWIND OF CALM
THESE DOLDRUMS ARE THE QUIET, BREATHLESS
LULL OF THE SEA
AN INTERIOR THAT IS VOID OF THE
DENSITY OF A VOID
EVEN A BLACK HOLE HAS MASS
THIS, NOW, IS WEIGHTLESS
IT IS NOT A REST SO MUCH AS A RESTLESSNESS
AND I AM IN A DEEP STATE OF WANTING
CRAVING A RUSTLING OF MY HAIR BY A BREEZE
OR A TOSSING OF A TEMPEST
BETTER TO BE OVERTURNED BY A SWELL THAN LEFT TO LANGUISH
transcript:
MY HORIZONS ARE OUT OF SIGHT
I WISH I BELIEVED IN GOD
transcript:
AND YOU. YOU ARE UNREQUITED AND STEADY.
A WARM SUN IN THE QUIET OF WINTER,
THE IRON TASTE OF BLOOD BEHIND MY
TEETH AND THE GRIT OF FROZEN SOIL
PARALYZING PLANTS IN THEIR PLACE AND
BITING UPWARDS AT MY ANKLES. I
AM IN AN ELLIPSE AROUND THE
HEAVIEST, FIXED POINT IN THE
UNIVERSE
I THINK YOU ARE DAZZLING, AND YOU
WILL SURELY SWALLOW ME UP
transcript:
AND YET THE KNOWLEDGE AND LOGIC OF
THIS INEVITABLE FAILURE DOES NOT
TOUCH YOU, AND I WANT TO CALL
YOU AND HEAR YOU SAY HOW YOU
MISS YOUR FAMILY, AND HOW YOUR BEDROOM
LOOKS BATHED IN A SUNRISE.
transcript:
ISN’T A STEADY DETERIORATION
SOMETHING LIKE AN EMBRACE?
CONSISTENT, PRESENT, TRUE.
PERHAPS THE WAVE THROWS
ITSELF AGAINST THE SHORE
AGAIN AND AGAIN IN
ORDER TO PROMISE FOREVER.
I DO LOVE YOU AND I’M
HERE, HERE, HERE.
