He courts suicide
The starry vestments
Of a spurious angel
To the witness
He is possibility
And fire
His tears are stoic
Unwept, they seep
Into the sinew
Unwept, they fell
Gravity
His heart stoops
In a basin
Of vindictive acid
His dreams eat
Of flesh and discernment
His smile voids
Conversation
For he can enter any girl
He pleases but no one speaks
To him of love
