lyrics

Your eyes: as iridescent as fuel oil
on the pavement, and as visibly polluting
with a slant of light.
Not one of your holy books will teach me
how to hold a hand, a look of longing
or a simple delight.

A black-and-white vision where the wainscot climbs
a flight of stairs
of what was once an interior wall...
Lean in, sycamores,
strongest phantoms: wrap me
in childhood, rush me to bed.
