Crooked Little Dreams
we dissolve…
into the silence of time
knots of death and water
spreading
the thick sleep
of space and shadow
perforations of night
cold and shapeless
kissing cool on the tongue
that tilt
into those
crooked little dreams…we dissolve
It is the drunk of autumn
the smell of earth
seeds wrapped in God
where whips of fire
shake into a lion red rage
bending around us…through us
disentangling our breath
between the stark
and pale light
