Throw away page.
Throw away page. 27-28/10/2007
Today’s page is yours
Take it and burn it
Take it and rape it
Take it and cut it up and sell it shorter than it is
This is the first time I have noticed a full moon in the north
This fish is a long way up-side-down
I want to thank you for the best of memories
That softest kiss, that face of coy disbelief
Today’s page I will throw away
It is not set free,
It is a bleeding sparrow with its wings torn from its body
It is what I cannot bear to read
Goodbye, I guess, in a coming Autumn air
Thick armor blocks the thought from my head
I want to drown in your dream, but there’s a heavy hand on my shoulder
I will not even glance these full sails when I finally turn from your sight.
Today is no page
And today’s words are smoke and injustice
No such light will grasp this moment
Incinerate its porcelain hands
Let it die painfully, like its killing me
You are one of a deepest pool
I could get lost in you forever
I hope you find these words I have burned
I hope you find them by accident and cry for the things I couldn’t tell you
That I could only say in my eyes that night.
