Things Better Left Forgotten

Things Better Left Forgotten

Love left when you dared

to breach your heart for

any walking paycheck.

Touch turned, biting, hoping

for a body broken by

time, your crevices show

fragility striped bare

against the static.

“Regret must

run in your family”

Geyser of the Heart

broken brakes breed

broken bones when

mountain roads oscillate

between pine and

sky with little

care for us.

me myself and

I converge on

the scittering wreck

of bodies who

dared meddle with

asphalt and steel.

red, the cotton

of my palm

pressures back the

geyser of her

heart reaching out

towards the inevitable.

Observe this moment

- how it convulses -

Two went to the Netherlands, another to Canada and I chose America. Our lives quickly drifted apart.
