I’m a mess
A profaner of tombs
Devoted to graves
Except mine.

through the pores
in the skin
of this room

making me smile

like a wind

like a perilous branch. I daydream of
You: hands on my throat
me: telling you I love you

and you know your heart is a place where people ache,
where people no longer feed their birds on fire.

& my red stop light flesh went with it
without so much as a snap, crackle or pop?
ONE POEM – Julien Chatel
You make a landscape with tiny things
Turn late-night buns into morning seas
TWO POEMS – Penney Knightly
we are wrestling for the same
hooks in time
we are bitter catches
broken holed and punchy
