SATURNALIA

SATURNALIA

13.5.13

all but the heart

Filled to the deck
with spoken slurs, disturbed
What did I fill you with?
All but the burnt, blistering heat
beating beneath me.

Outside of view,
yet only open to you,
your pacific dry spells
and your deep, meaningless wells

conflagrations of black birds, migrating
out of view, reminding me of you
and all of the things that are unwilling,
distilling
