‘Tripping On a Spiral Staircase’
And so she presses down her Hail Marys Against the inner lining of his heart and soul She flicks her anxious habits back to school And curls up inside the belly of the breeze. Some sour reason, I’ll bawl to plead forgiveness Like the face of shame on the verge of giggles For the faded facts of enraptured fingers – Gaze out the window, seek out your limitations In sweet dreams of untinged conspiracy Whilst wildfires skim the cream off the ocean And all eyes ascend alike as apt magnets To the flesh of scattered starlight, and to me.
