fingers tangled in my tangles
in my heart stings
like the surf envelops the shore
unties the knot
the elevator in the fire
melted wax dripping like desire
nature is full of teeth
and the stones write this silence
the furnace of your chest
the lullaby of your skin
i migrate toward the fog
the blackness is murderous
tied down time with a rope
threw out the wrinkled map
faces in a parade
a thin tangled poison
your fingerprints
metallic rains tracing
sweet honeysuckle and red wine
your eyes in mine
