Copper Mouth

Graves, Morris waking-walking-singing-in-the-next-dimension-1979

You spread like wine

Over a silk dress, a

Copper-mouthed

Carnivore spinning

Contradictions into a

Hypothetical prime

=

I’ve got a head full

Of heathen posies,

And a lavender soul

Spilling forward like

A thirsting wisteria

We’re all swaying to

The refrain of your

Avaricious pulse

=

Cotton-mouthed with

Misplaced expectations

I watch you slip dimensionless

Into patina, ambidextrous

Heart pocketing the sunrise

And sunset in the same

Thieving swoop
