How To Leave

Electric-wired henges holding demons self-confessed,

And each awake and speaking ready for its lightening death.

Sharing a Quilt

A space, here, feels your absence; 

would let me make a hundred 

mistakes with you than any

other offer for moments

of precision and command.



Crispness in your decision

caused me to pay attention 

to your details: the warmth of

your shoulder. Your certainty led.

Uncertainty held you in.



You only misplaced your eyes 

When you knew I was looking,

and I would never admit 

that I was doing the same.

I trust you because you count. 



Each step is "systematic",

know the structure, then the art.

Distracting from the car sales

and uncertainty of heart;

each number quelling new guilt.
