rest
shed your hallowed sorrows
velvet nested stars
share
this air i’ve cradled in me
a borrowed glimpse of far-off lands
come
be safe tonight my love / dream with countless eyes
while i hold your pocketwatch

whispers over glassen water
amber shroud of contours steaming
(the sun dips low)
where once you washed anew
(she tastes her reflection)
where once you slipped into it all
loom under a waxen sliver
(hallucinating you)
crane your neck to find
crane your neck to find
boon of sky soliloquized
(dimpled corner of your lip)
crane your neck to find
crane your neck
andromeda’s sarabande
silent flue subsumed
all i can see is your eyes
all i can see is you
quantize or quantify
all i can see is you

clinging to the warbled asphalt
the chicory in bloom
neither lost in rendezvous
nor memory festooned
the seasons heave in magnitude
and i am here with you
in wilkes-barre
dawn's delayed arrival
to listen in the silence
to the babble on a stone
our hemiola aquifer
laid within the chapel green
dialectic orchestra
douses for the stream
in wilkes-barre
cradled underwater
to glisten in the skylight
naked and unknown

leviathan

atop the palisade
lilting frames assuage dusk
we were young
with fertile hands and noble blood
we were young
stilled breath at the grave
nascent quake
we rarify
from the summit to the tide
we rarify
i lost myself within
the migratory plan
and landed in your open palm
leviathan
mourn the nameless questions
a colonnade of loss
stones in prescient spirals
annulled duality
i landed in your open palm
you chose to keep me
when the raindrops come to constellate
into heartbeats blanketed by night
we'll be the ochre in the underground
the oracle at streetlight

the chandelier above us
delights the room in scattered fledgling stardust
aflutter as it spins
the robin's zenith cry to herald evening
she races through the dappled light
crowds in murmuration
this land's forgotten me
i've forgotten how to be
and in my lonesome way
i'm slower slower still
still only
awash in tired story
ink and vellum stretched on bone
illuminated fractures
borealic womb
the ivy cracks through brick and snakes inside to find the vhs is convalescing static
a child all alone
a court of passerines
return and turn away
now slower slower still
still only
painted memories
of how you move
flash before me
like a may storm and you're six years old
at your grandparents' home you hide
underneath the dining room table
and the way you move
makes me wish i could too

our fleeting home
a siren's call away
dugongs in the alcove
bound against
the ardor of the wind
borne by my bare chest
in time in time
to moor my mind
love notes spilled
under dome of night
daffodils
shuddering in time
you asked me inside inside
in time in time
quiet on the promenade
how could we stay
how could we know
the power of our vacancy
together alone
thou and i
blue sky
obscuring
the passenger
the smile of a stranger
our fleeting home
a siren's call away
in time in time
thou and i
in time

porcelain and smoke

revenant
in the corner of my mind
will you still be by my side
when the lights go out
magnolia
too cold to call it spring
how an april shower sings
on the nape of your neck
on the nape of your neck
gilded fawn
bow to the blind hour
porcelain and smoke
sorrowful
the apiary waits
for a meadow's gentle sermon
would that god could stay
would that i were with you now
would my tears run up your shoulder
and be lost within your hair
will you love me when i'm older
porcelain and smoke
