SUNDAY PRAYER, ccxxi


time & time again

up to the lighthouse on the rocks we walked

if winds threatened to gutter us 

like bowling pins, like butterfly puss

we are gathering on the headlights

angel of death transvestite, desire 

is your pyro in the library

skeleton king of the tomato faeries

i am i am


time & time again

the hopeless goddess of the rooftop

met me halfway, where the raindrop

meets the firework in the sky

i know eventually i will ruin it

sure as water grows on an AC unit

in a window. to mine own heart be a bimbo 

perhaps limbo is just another word

for a long wick getting lit first


but you are a birthday,

deep with the dayshine

from dusk to moonbreak,

the dust of keepsakes


time & time again, i am i am
