I fed her
pomegranate kisses
and she cried
at every frozen sunrise
for 180 days.
With cracks in my heart
and souls
caught in my hair
I counted 180 more.

Literature
Midnight: A Rensaku
I'll hold you, fold you
tuck you safe in my rib-cage
-like first love's letters
I'll seek heaven in your gaze,
constellations on your lips
Catch the butterflies
fluttering in my rib-cage
-they know me so well
Write on cerulean skies,
breathe under turquoise waters
You pick at my scabs
kiss me deep in my rib-cage
-while I ache from bliss
I'm but a half-baked body,
your warmth will surely rot me
Literature
Sun Child,
I am freezing
& I am hungry
for fever’s lips-
her inky fingers
purging
a dry stomach.
My body is an ocean,
my limbs, but oars.
My tongue & teeth,
a life raft
keeping this madness
from sinking into blue.
Offering up 102 degrees
of skin;
You would think
I had something to say.
Literature
Fifty
Please understand: I do not want
to want this (you).
I realized at poem nineteen-of-fifty:
You (college-borne) are a new you,
I (weaponized) am a new me,
and the new me still wants the new you.
