LUNCHEON ON THE GRASS

HOW MANY PIECES OF MY
DIVIDED HEART DO YOU WANT?
DO MY ESCAPES TO THE COUNTRY
COME OFF UNCONCERNED AND NONCHALANT? AT LEAST TWO SOULS WILL TUMBLE AND FALL IF NOT ALL FOUR
AND CAST AN ASHEN SHADOW
LIKE LEAVES ON THE FOREST FLOOR
AND I WILL HAVE WHAT I CAME FOR

SOMETIMES I THINK I IMAGINED HER
THIS CAN’T BE REAL
PIECED TOGETHER WITH BITS OF YOU THROUGH WEAKNESS AND A VAGUE APPEAL QUICK UPON THE EXTERNAL GUISE
THE VERDANT SHORE
YOU SEE THE PAINT FROM LIGHT TO DARK SHE SEES THE WHORE
BUT I WILL GET WHAT I PAID FOR

BOTTLES OF WARM UNTRACEABLE WINE CHERRIES AND ROUND BREAD
HASTILY SCATTERED
ALL IN THE NAME OF HOLLOW ROMANCE WHERE DID YOUR LATE AUNT’S EMERALD EARRINGS DISAPPEAR TO? LOOK BENEATH THE BLANKET
CHECK THE MAGPIE’S NEST

THERE’S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A SWIM AND AN ANKLE DIP BETWEEN BARE SKIN SMELLING OF SWEET GREEN HAITIAN VETIVER AND A FULL-LENGTH SLIP
ONE’S A COUPLE AND ONE’S A PAIR TWO ARE HAPPY, TWO DESPAIR THE FALLING WATER BREAKS
THE HUSH OF THE MIDDAY AIR LEAVING US NOWHERE
