Shirt, sweater, scarf, mitts
Underneath the winter coat
Now I have to pee.

Es schmerzt sich einzugestehen, wie unbedeutend man eigentlich ist.
Da wird keiner kommen und die Träume wahr machen, zum Glück nicht.
Du hast mich damit halbtot gemacht, innerlich zerhackt, jetzt bleib ich auch sitzen und lass die Flamme sich nach unten fressen.
Zum Woh, auf die Vergangenheit und auf den Schein der Kerze -
Auf die Hitze und die Mäßigung in diesem Moment in dem ich auf das Licht schaue.
Amen.

love presses into me like a warm blade
sweet edge opening the soft parts
I reach for it even as it stings
because the hurt feels shaped like belonging

The Dean undressed
with pious zest
The vicar's wife to lie on
She thought it rude to do it nude
So he kept his old school tie on

Sonnet 083 - LXXXIII
I never saw that you did painting need,
And therefore to your fair no painting set;
I found, or thought I found, you did exceed
The barren tender of a poet's debt:
And therefore have I slept in your report,
That you yourself, being extant, well might show
How far a modern quill doth come too short,
Speaking of worth, what worth in you doth grow.
This silence for my sin you did impute,
Which shall be most my glory being dumb;
For I impair not beauty being mute,
When others would give life, and bring a tomb.
There lives more life in one of your fair eyes
Than both your poets can in praise devise.

there once was an old lady named mable
in bed she had proved herself able
she fucked like a bunny
called her men sonny
while bent over the dining room table
