How we can be silent
You find a new way to say it, then
cause it's always been the same to me
and all the other ordinary stars
lips, cheeks and
tongues
have always sucked the blood
back through
ancient veins and clotted earths
it's not love,
that changed
And you can take a number, too
behind all the other
unpoisoned Juliets.
The poets weren't first
and neither are you,
doll-face
to try and wrap up heaven like a wedding
then make all the trees
lie down,
with
you
with
him
as if it's yours alone
the kiss
the goddess food,
the dark green surrender
how we can be silent
