stone circle
i)
the spirits if there were
did not want you
and i did not want them to
stargazer,
limitless
silly, dangerous man
serious and soft
surround me
with breathing air
i tried
ii)
the first comet we saw was the brightest thing i have seen. an orange burst of fire and a sound like quenching hot iron.
honesty is a trap
i do not like the inside of you
full of shit and conspiracy
i want granite i can touch
what have i done now

do i have to let you know in words how awful we are
so: cry out
until something calls back to you /
you are always eviscerated you are always starving / present me your emaciated ass / i'll gladly ruin you / slashed ligaments / crawl forward darling to the mouth of (is it) / hell / to get to me / here i am here i am / my touch / is a regretful drug / you must come closer / so my crooked hands can split you open / oh please, my sweetest tasting liar / scream that much louder / fill your throat with antimatter / break your nails away from the bed / come to mine / bleeding / like a cut flower / break everything / it's not your...

the minor injuries of you and me
i chipped my tooth fucking you.
my finger was broken and you ruined the splint. it will never be the same
you have a scar on your shoulder from my nails
and a dimple in your cheek, also from me.
there is such a loud hum in my ear.
you are part of my silhouette;
i am in your cupboards and drawers
a missing person

how do i remember if i've done this before
the boy is a white noise machine
and i will not need him
in the way that this past five years
i have
imagine me unhappy
or
imagine me guileless
i am not both
pretend i am unscathed
even as time
turns backwards
on my scars
and i will not need him

naked and unwashed i am last week's fever dream
scalp is woollen . let it be
skin is good? itchy?
knees bones hurt
face is sore
teeth roughy
the taste is bad.
nipples
curve of my breast feels nice feels comforting
against the arm lain across it
hands is numb from face lying on the other arm
i know shhh this is not
but I can't I say i can not
shhh it is ok says the snake
rest here.
come back when you can

drowning in the english summer
the rain is unfuckingrelenting. she is pulled back in like
uhh like scummy sea foam, like salty cum drops wriggling down the drain.
the water calls her by the name she chose.
after all a grey sky is just a very darkened blue; after all this time
so far from any river or lake
the tongue imagines a fall
to quench that ideation
and she loves falling,
i think
because she knows she's supposed to have wings
and that's how you learn.

orange
like walking through a path overhung
with autumn trees
discarding a match on the dry ground
like perhaps a pumpkin
with your face carved in
flickering
like a truck stop coming up close
the walls of a chip shop chinese
a broken traffic light causing chaos
the man in hi vis perched on the city aerials
like some overgrown escaped pet parrot
vitamins
medication
if we're to take a look perhaps
at the heat map of your skull
orgasms: the kind that give...

every time you write about writing i want to tear you apart
have to
lick the gourmet of it
to taste the notes
of each wound
the way you rub it
in
the specific
exact
kill shot
intensity
right word
right time
right
line
tight
(laughter echoes
it is meant in love)
oh and also
i imagine your body
im just a passing weirdo
looking to order
a peice of flesh
online
your
fine
textual steak
seared
blue
lick the gourmet of it
to taste the notes
of each wound
the way you rub it
in
the specific
exact
kill shot
intensity
right word
right time

line
tight
(laughter echoes

oh and also

forgiveness
it's a filthy smell like
burnt orange;
& im gonna taste it till i die of it
(i'll touch it later)
tenderised the sweeter to eat
you season me for the next;
you know you could really hurt
do you know i want that?
use me
animal scent like suet and salt
pepper and salt
the smell of old payment:
i think you fully forgive me
you are golden dust
hero of the sand
a gladiator, standing over me
one knee on the floor ...
burnt orange;
& im gonna taste it till i die of it
(i'll touch it later)

animal scent like suet and salt

blue moon ahedonia
yesterday was faster than i was.
for all my plans
ended up leaving the curtains closed
oh gods
please don't let me be heavy.
please don't
uncannily like a dinner plate, on the verge of shattering
some pastoral chinese scene split down a stressed vein
man and his house
and tree
and boat
wrenched apart
they say it's more beautiful broken
mortared with silver
i don't know, i never saw
but maybe it gave me a headache
anyway

blackout
blackjack, twenty one
.threw a glass
the sound of it shattered everything
(probably)
told you i'd kill you

said;
"i'm not always like this"
but couldn't tell you
how
or when
or why
fucked it i've fucked it how can i cry - fuck- my way
out of this one
