water from the tap
cool and clear like love, washing
the thirst from yearning

the cunt of freedom
intoxicating riot
boundaries and peace

feel the eyelids droop
taking a languorous blink
sudden start - cat nap

the little corporals
are taking names on the bus
Don't go home tonight
Stay with me and dance at last
For tomorrow the sky falls

I curl and wither
bowed with a weight of madness
frost burned fern - brittle

forget the mad eyes
I send towards you - frost sharp
I regret my snow

whirling colour sea
still point in a dark spotlight
I sit amidst life
