just a thought
maybe one day i could wear a caftan and you could wear a caftan, and we wouldn’t worry about sitting in the dirt because we’d have music. and music feels better when one is buried in dirt, lingering on the edge of his own body. and peeling a soul from the skin is easier if hands are held - energy transferred, secrets shared. suppose you take off the caftan and i take off the caftan-...

“Man, that’s a lot of unrequited love you’ve got there!” they’d say.
I told them “I know, it keeps me warm in the winter”.

down the stairs on hands and knees
with clumsy hands I sculpted a replica of your misshapen heart, but the image made it too real. I remember you telling me (though out of context) that your heart was messed up (and I agreed) as each beat traveled through my arm. We did share a heartbeat at one point. It always beat too quickly for the slow tides, and took its time on the coldest summer night I’ve ever felt - but my God, I...
