pf_mod: modern pseudo-cubist painting of a red headed woman holding a book with a red cover (Default)

Day 15:
Your eyes are sad and beautiful
like the pictures of flowers in a textbook.


Day 16:
And love—a couple of nights
like rare stamps. To stroke the heart
without breaking it.


Day 17:
But a great love begins here, sometimes,
with the sound of dry branches snapping in the dead forests.


Day 18:
All these make a strange
dance rhythm. But I don't know who's dancing to it
or who's calling the tune.


Day 19:
My eyes were prophets then, but my body had no idea
what it was going through or where it belonged.


Day 20:
stand by my side and dry your face now
and smile as if in a family photo.


Day 21:
May you find lasting peace,
the living in their lives, the dead
in being dead.

from What Kind of Person

I'm not a car, I'm a person,
A man-god, a god-man
Whose days are numbered. Hallelujah
