With Lines
2008
His radiant Morse code, the way
each breath jump-starts a holy wave,
all twists and sighs align
to confiscate the kind of tension
that obstructs the ride.
All my thoughts, the moon falling
around the Earth.
Touch like an apple proving
the weight. You, more than the world, the crack of energy I fall to,
and it hurts. Face glide and project,
tug hard with fists
and forget the day that pouts through my face.
Hot dear, in a minute we spin out from
the center, pressed and
whispering gallow-speak to fool the unhinged
who hover in wait of our ultimate implosion.
Inside we drip warm, echoing the laughter
of an easy secret, an open secret,
the preparation of our stealthy execution
to cover the world with lines.
