and i am tracing the spaces
your lips covered/caricatured
on my sunshine skin —
my lips blooming&bursting
this spring of lust, bereft of stars,
while i look for my own loss
in the dark.
the roads are endless in this city
of loss,
but my beginning is its own end.
where do i go to seek the poetry
of things? how can i ever
make this night last?
