Starting Out Spurious

Starting Out Spurious

against the red dripping skies
strained through the coarse
you fear the freedom of utopia

intractable green eyes
the strangest of superstitions
hitting every red light

provided moral center
counting the licks
feeling each tick

a throat strong and proven
touching the wishful body
governed by riddled tombs

each bowed as placid dreams
hate is that shaggy animal
the thawed flesh of agreement

smoothed over by the parts
a hungry arrival
this is not light

cracking open the bones
extracting the marrow
more ropes blanching

spread through the hurt
she runs backwards
with hostile eyes
