I think somewhere in all this
subcutaneous earth...

I wish you
wouldn't say...

A sigh
is a wish...

Find me here,
behind my words...

I've always loved you--
your hands, your eyes...

...like broken fragments
otherworldly...

Abruptly
like a broken hasp...

I am electric.
Full of streaming lights and silence...

Like pennies in a wishing well
bouncing...

....such cold warmth
air rising...

There was only heaven and the sea,
and a brief wind among the stars...

Tap water bubbles, and
hot water burns my skin...
